Peter Andre has taken to Instagram to share an old picture of himself larking about with his older brother Michael and late brother Andrew, who they tragically lost to cancer in 2012.
Hailing the v 80s photo as the “ultimate throwback”, Peter wrote, “Me, my brother @mrmichaelandre1 and our late brother Andrew.
“Our usual clowning around. Man I miss you brother. Yeah we were picked on and outcast for years but we also had some amazing times and are friends now with so many of the people that didn’t like us. Life is strange sometimes and way, way ,way too short.”

Back in 2015 Pete opened up about how his family had coped with Andrew’s death, saying it was something they would never get over.
“The bottom line is, you can never really deal with it because it’s a loss, but it’s on a much larger scale,” he told OK! magazine.
“It’s like losing a vital organ or losing something on your body like your arm or your leg. You can still function in life but it’s never going to be the same.”
And speaking to Closer the same year he added, “The more you love someone, the more you’re going to get hurt. I feel sick when I think about losing someone else close to me.”
