Peter Andre has sought legal advice, on ways which he can stop Alex Reid profiting from his children.

After Katie Price and Alex Reid eloped and got married last week, Peter decided that he didn’t want Reid appearing in lucrative photoshoots or TV shows with his ­four-year-old son Junior and daughter Princess, two.

A friend of the singer told The Sunday Mirror: “Pete has been on the phone to his lawyers trying to sort this out.

“He is furious at any suggestion Alex might play more of a role in the children’s lives.

“His worst nightmare would be turning on the TV and having to watch Alex playing with his kids.”
