Singer Peter Andre, 50, and NHS doctor Emily MacDonagh, 33, married in 2015 and have since welcomed two children together, Amelia, nine, and Theo, six.
However, in recent months the Mysterious Girl singer has been busier than ever, but Emily revealed that they have developed a system of coping mechanisms to manage their busy schedules while spending so much time apart.
Speaking to The Sun at the launch of No7 Future Renew, she admitted that their busy schedules, coupled with children’s activities, often leave them little time for spontaneous romance.
Emily revealed that Peter only has three Saturdays free by August.
Emily admitted, “I always miss him when he’s not around”, and refuses to touch his side of the bed when he’s not around.

Although this lifestyle may seem extreme, Emily says their relationship has always felt like this, adding, “He’s always been gone a lot since we’ve been together.”
The mum-of-two insisted adjusting to each other’s unique and busy schedules has only strengthened their relationship, adding that the fact that Peter is only ever away “for little tips” both helps a lot.
As proof, Emily revealed that Peter had left the day before but was babysitting while she was at the launch.
