PETER Andre has revealed a ‘new’ name for his baby girl and confessed he hasn’t called her Arabella yet.
The 51-year-old and wife Emily, 34, welcomed their third child together in April.
Pete later revealed the couple were struggling to name their newest addition but they decided to go with Arabella.
However the Mysterious Girl hitmaker – who also shares Amelia, 10, and Theo, seven, with Emily and Junior, 18, and Princess, 16, with ex-wife Katie Price – has confessed he doesn’t use the moniker.
Writing in his column for new! magazine, Pete said: “Arabella is now seven weeks old – where has the time gone?
“I still haven’t called Arabella by her name. I absolutely love it and she really suits it – but I still call her ‘bubba’.”
And Arabella has another name in his native language Greek.
Pete, who is Greek Cypriot, revealed how he is including his elderly parents in Arabella’s life, despite them living in Australia.
He said: “I’m on the phone to my mum and dad in Australia nearly every day. They met the baby by video call when she was just moments old.
“I don’t feel right to leave Emily and the baby just yet to go over and visit, but this way it feels like they’re in the room and allows my parents to see those important first moments.
“And they love the name Arabella, which in Greek is pronounced Arvela.”
Dr Emily’s fans were left stunned when Pete shared a snap of her in hospital shortly after giving birth to Arabella – and they couldn’t get over how good she looked.
One wrote: “ How do you actually look so well after giving birth.”
Another said: “Emily you look so beautiful.”
Meanwhile another said: “What a lovely picture. You look absolutely radiant and I would never have guessed that you recently gave birth.”
