Peter Andre Discusses Past Health Struggles

Peter Andre has bravely shared details of a hidden health struggle stemming from past traumas, including childhood bullying and violent incidents, during an episode of the Exhibit A podcast with Abbey Clancy. The singer recounted a distressing breakdown at around 26 or 27 years old, characterized by brain fog and overwhelming anxiety, which left him 'curling up in a corner'. He sought help in the US due to the stigma surrounding mental health in his family, rooted in their strict Jehovah's Witness beliefs. Additionally, Peter reflected on the profound grief he experienced following the death of his brother Andrew from kidney cancer in 2012, describing his emotions as still 'raw' and the impact of the loss on his family. He emphasized the uniqueness of sibling loss compared to losing parents, noting that the sudden nature of his brother's death left him unprepared. Andre stated that while time has eased some pain, certain memories continue to haunt him.
