Junior Andre has spoken out about the upcoming arrival of his newest sibling for the first time, saying: ‘I’m going to be one of eight now.’
The rapper, 18, is about to become an elder brother for the sixth time as the birth of his step-mother Dr. Emily MacDonagh and father Peter Andre’s child nears.
Junior told HELLO!: ‘Well, I’m going to be one of eight now, which is crazy, I’m going to be a big brother again.
‘Obviously, I’m going to be like 19 years older, so I’m going to treat it as if it’s my child. It’s going to prepare me for fatherhood but yeah I’m very excited.”
Junior revealed that he did not know the baby’s gender, but he would love them so much regardless, although there was one task he will opt out of.
