Peter Andre has pleaded with Katie Price’s boyfriend Alex Reid not to cross-dress in front of his children.

Tabloid reports suggest that Reid has been dressing in womens clothes since his teenage years and in an interview with The Sun, Andre asked him to keep his habits locked behind closed doors.

Peter said: “Whatever people are doing in their private lives, and that goes for them or anyone, can you please not do it in front of the kids.

“I’m not going to criticise, I’m not going to say, ‘How dare you do this or that’, just don’t do it in front of the kids. Give me that little bit of respect.”
