"Excited!" he added over the Story.

It comes after Peter recently added 'film actor' to his CV, taking a role in the upcoming thriller Bullet. A trailer, shared via his Instagram, shows Peter exchanging punches with an opponent.

He told Capital Theatres: "Acting is something I studied as a kid and I love doing something that combines acting, singing and dancing.

"Back in the old days, if you wanted to be an actor you had to learn how to sing and dance and if you wanted to be a singer you also learned how to act and dance."

No doubt while this new part of his career begins, Peter will still find time for family life.

Peter is father to Junior, 18, and Princess, 16, from his previous marriage with model Katie Price.

Peter sweetly asked Ruaraidh's permission before taking Emily on a date.

He told RTÉ Radio 1: "I'm starting to get feelings for Emily. What am I going do here ? I thought if her father finds out he’s going to wish he did a different operation so I went and asked him. I said, 'Look before I say anything to Emily, I'm really sorry but I've got feelings for her. Are you OK with me asking her on a date?'

"He laughed and he said to me he felt there was a chemistry going on. He was great about it – and he remains one of my best friends. We're together all the time."
