Peter Andre finally confirms baby daughter's sweet name
Peter Andre and his wife Emily MacDonagh have finally shared the name of their baby daughter after struggling to agree.
The pair announced the arrival of their third child last month, already sharing Amelia, 10, and Theo, seven. Peter also has son Junior, 18, and daughter Princess, 16, from his marriage to Katie Price.
Since the little one's birth, I'm a Celebrity star Peter and GP Emily have struggled to agree on what to name the tot.
But a month after her birth, the singer revealed they had decided to call their daughter Arabella Rose Andréa, a name that Emily chose. The name appears to be a nod to Peter's mother, who is named Thea Andrea.

Posting a picture of the newborn wrapped in a blanket as well as a closeup of her tiny feet, Peter wrote: "I think you’ve chosen a beautiful name @dr_emily_official. Arabella Rose Andréa, I LOVE it. ???? and I love her.. and you of course:). Apparently in Greek, it’s Ἄρβηλα."
Peter previously opened up on the couple's struggles when it came to naming the baby in his latest column for OK! magazine, saying it was a "big decision".
"Emily has been making an amazing recovery since the birth… but as I write this we still don’t have a name," he wrote.
"We were in the exact same situation when we had Millie. We went round in circles for weeks, but it’s not until you meet a baby that you truly know their name.

"We don’t have long now until we need to register her, so the clock is ticking. I loved Olivia, Charlotte and Athena, but Emily didn’t get too excited about those, so they’re off the table. It’s a big decision!"
Sharing the news of their new arrival on social media, Peter wrote: "We feel so overwhelmed right now. So happy to welcome our beautiful girl to the family. Mum and daughter are doing amazing. Born Tuesday 2nd April 2024, 7lb 3oz and thankfully very healthy. As parents, we couldn’t be happier."
He said that their older children were "in love with their new little sister" but hinted at the problems they would have to come when deciding what to call her.
"Only thing is…. She has no name yet. Help," he added.
