Peter Andre has opened up about the possibility of expanding his brood with wife Emily, after welcoming their new baby daughter Arabella back in April. The 51-year-old singer and his 34-year-old wife's newborn join siblings Millie, 10, and Theo, seven as well as his other two children with ex-wife Katie Price; Junior, 18, and Princess, 16.

Speaking to The Sun, Peter declared that their adorable two-month-old, who weighed 7lb 3oz at birth, "might be" the final addition to their family and said he's "making the most of it". He shared: "This time we're pretty sure it's going to be our last one."

Yet, he playfully added: "Well, never say never. I'm not 100 per cent, but I'm enjoying having time to bond with her." The Mysterious Girl hitmaker went on to express his joy at being able to spend quality time with Arabella, something he missed out on with his other children due to his career.

Peter went on to say that his daughters seem to have a "natural instinct" for caring for their new baby sister and that "everyone" in the family is eager to spend time with her. The singer describes his hectic family life as "beautiful madness" which consists of a lot of sleepless nights.

However, Peter said he tries to help Emily, who breastfeeds, as much as he can by doing the last feed and "one of the early ones". In a surprising revelation last month, Peter admitted that even though his daughter is nearly two months old, he still hadn't called her by her name.

Writing in his New! magazine column, he confessed: "Arabella is now seven weeks old where has the time gone?

"I still haven't called Arabella by her name. I absolutely love it and she really suits it but I still call her 'bubba'."

This time round, the couple struggled to think of a name for their baby and asked fans to help.

After many sent in suggestions, Emily finally confirmed her daughter's adorable moniker on Instagram.

She wrote: "It’s taken a while but after lots of deliberation we’ve finally decided. Arabella Rose Andréa."

The name is a nod to Peter's mother, Thea Andrea, 88, who has been battling Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's.

Just days after Arabella's birth, Junior and Princess flew to Australia to be by their grandmother's bedside.

At the time, Peter proudly took to his Instagram page to share a video of the precious moment, which prompted many of his fans to comment.

The father-of-five wrote: "Junior and princess. The fact that you drove to Somerset to be with us hours before and the days that followed to see the arrival of your baby sister, AND THEN to get on a plane and travel 12,000 miles to be with your grandmother in a very difficult time for her shows me what beautiful children you are.

"I will never forget this moment. Thank you for being truly amazing. Love you all so much.

"Keep cuddling mum for me please and tell her I love her and we will come out soon."
