Peter Andre is kick starting his 'star in the making' son Junior's acting career

The singer reckons his oldest child has what it takes to crack the world of showbiz

Peter Andre has grand plans to crack the film industry - and wants to get son Junior involved too.

The singer opened up about his next career opportunity in his column for a weekly magazine and gushed about his oldest child's talent for acting.

'My first big work project this year will be in America. I had the pleasure of having my friend and movie director James Hickox come and spend the day with me and the family recently', Peter wrote in New! magazine.

'We spent quality time together and talked all things script-related. We plan to start filming soon in Los Angeles. I'm very darn excited, I can tell you!

'While James was over, I got Junior to meet him and told James he's a little star in the making.'

It seems that proud dad Peter isn't the only one to think Junior shows real promise when it comes to acting.

The 12-year-old has bagged a place at a school which will help him hone his craft.

'I applied for him last November and I was so proud when they sent me a letter telling me he'd been accepted', he continued.

'The school specialises in drama and sport, and he starts there next year. I'd actually love to take J over to LA with me, but only on his school hols, of course.'

It looks set to be a busy year for Peter who has just returned from a skiing trip to France.

The 44-year-old jetted off to Sainte-Foy-Tarentaise with wife Emily MacDonagh plus their daughter Amelia, 4, and toddler Theo who was born in 2016.

Junior and Princess, 10 - Peter's children from his previous marriage to Katie Price - were also present.

Peter was sure to keep fans up-to-date with everything the family were up to on their snowy break by posting lots of adorable pictures of his kids on Instagram.
