Remember “Mysterious Girl”? That bloke who danced shirtless on a Thai beach in 1996? He’s now worth roughly £16 million. Yeah, Pete’s done alright for himself considering his career was basically dead by 2003. The Peter Andre net worth figure surprised me, too, when I looked it up properly.
Most ’90s pop stars disappeared completely. Pete managed to reinvent himself about three times and somehow kept banking cash along the way.
That Song Saved Him Twice
Peter Andre’s songs made him famous, but they didn’t make him super rich. “Mysterious Girl” hit number two when it first came out. Then in 2004, it got re-released and went to number one. Over two million copies sold worldwide. That single alone has probably earned him around £3 million over the years between sales and licensing.
His album “Natural” went platinum. Sold 300,000 copies just in the UK. Touring and merch brought in millions more. Music analysts reckon that the whole period netted him about £4.5 million globally.
Then nothing. Musical tastes changed. R&B pop wasn’t cool anymore. Pete could’ve ended up doing supermarket openings in Scunthorpe. Instead, he got lucky.
The Jungle Changed Everything
In 2004, in “I’m a Celebrity…,” Peter went into that jungle and popped out with a new career and tabloid-friendly girlfriend. Katie Price & Peter Andre made the headlines; no one could stop talking about them.
Their reality show “Katie & Peter,” on ITV2, had been huge. Multiple series. Millions watching. Those contracts pay six figures easily. More shows followed after their split. “Peter Andre: The Next Chapter.” “My Life.” The bloke basically lived on camera for years.
Smart financially. Rubbish for privacy. But he chose the money.
Peter Andre Wife Number Two
Peter Andre’s wife is now Dr Emily MacDonagh. They met in 2010 when her dad treated Pete for kidney stones. Married in 2015 at some posh house in Exeter.
Peter Andre’s wife Emily is an NHS doctor, so her salary is maybe £50,000 to £80,000 yearly. Decent but nowhere near Pete’s earnings. Emily André’s net worth probably sits under £500,000 total.
Here’s the mad bit. Pete didn’t get a prenup with Emily. He’s talked about it openly. “We’ve got children together; we don’t need one.” It’s a bit risky when you’re sitting on millions, and your missus isn’t, but whatever.
Emily’s become a media personality herself now. She presents cooking segments with Pete on “Lorraine.” Wrote a kids’ book. Got her own Instagram following. She’s carved out her own little niche.
They’ve got three kids together. Amelia, Theo, and baby Arabella, who arrived in April 2024. Pete’s 51 now and says Arabella’s definitely their last. “The lack of sleep hits different at my age,” he admitted.
Plus, he’s got Junior and Princess from Katie Price. That’s five kids total. School fees, activities, food, and clothes. The costs never stop.
The Surrey Mansion
Where does Peter Andre live? Massive house in Surrey. Five bedrooms. Cinema room. Home gym. Separate bathrooms for him and Emily because apparently that matters. Walk-in wardrobes. Playroom. Hot tub. Outdoor bar. Fire pit.
The Peter Andre house cost him about £2.5 million when he bought it in 2017. It’s worth closer to £3.5 million now because Surrey property’s gone mental.
But that’s not all he owns. He’s got a holiday home in Cyprus worth around £3 million. Back in the ’90s, his dad told him to buy property instead of blowing cash on cars and watches. Pete actually listened.
His total property portfolio is probably £10 to £12 million. That’s most of his wealth right there.
The Divorce That Cost Millions
Peter’s first wedding to Katie Price in 2005 cost £1 million. There were Swarovski crystals all over the place. Pink carpet. Horse-drawn carriages. Very Katie.
The marriage lasted four years. Divorce in 2009. Settlement stayed private, but high-profile splits aren’t cheap. Legal fees alone probably hit six figures. Asset division, child support, all of it.
Some reckon that divorce cost Pete several million quid total. Money he’ll never see again.
Choosing not to get a prenup with Emily seems either brave or daft, depending on how you look at it.
Music Still Pays
Peter Andre songs still earn him money. “Mysterious Girl” plays at every ’90s night in Britain. “Flava” gets radio play. “I Feel You” pops up on retro playlists.
Every radio play, every Spotify stream, every time it’s used in a TV show or film, Pete gets paid. Not much per play. But millions of plays across 30 years adds up.
He’s released over ten albums in total. “Revelation” hit number three in 2009. “Behind Closed Doors” made number four.
Music’s earned him maybe £10 to £15 million across his entire career. Not all at once. Spread over three decades.
These days he does retro tours and ’90s nostalgia events. Fees aren’t what they were in 1996, but a few grand per appearance adds up fast when you’re doing dozens yearly.
Telly Work Keeps Him Going
Pete has been presenting “60 Minute Makeover” since 2013. Steady income. Hosting a gig on a major channel pays £50,000 to £100,000 per series, depending on your profile.
He was on “Strictly” in 2015. Came seventh. That gig alone likely paid six figures, plus the exposure.
Guest presenting on “This Morning” and “Loose Women”. Voiceover work for kids’ shows. Every appearance adds up.
Then there are the fragrances. “Unconditional” in 2009. “Mysterious Girl” perfume in 2010. Men’s fragrances, too. You will take 5% to 15% of sales from celebrity perfume lines. And if his fragrances reeled in a few million during the years, that’s hundreds of thousands in his pocket.
He’s written books. Autobiographies. Fitness guides. “My World: In Pictures and Words” hit number two in 2010. Books don’t make you rich, but they contribute.
He did adverts for the Iceland supermarket. Multi-year deals with major retailers pay six figures easily.
How Much Is Peter Andre Worth 2025 Actually?
Different sites say different things. Some say $10 million (about £8 million). Others say $20 million (roughly £16 million). Most settle around £15 to £16 million. So how much is Peter Andre worth 2025, really?
Here’s our rough maths.
- Music over 30 years: £10 to £15 million.
- Reality TV and presenting: £5 to £8 million.
- Property: £10 to £12 million.
- Business stuff: £2 to £3 million.
That’s £27 to £38 million gross. But then taxes take 40% to 45%. Divorce costs. Living expenses for seven people. Bad investments we don’t know about.
What’s left? Probably that £16 million figure. That’s his actual wealth in December 2025.
Not footballer money. Not even Ed Sheeran’s money. But for someone whose career nearly died in 2003, it’s impressive.
Smart Moves He Made
Buying property early. His dad’s advice paid off massively.
Saying yes to “I’m a Celebrity” when his music career was dying. That jungle saved him.
Doing reality TV with Katie Price. The marriage cost him money, but the shows made him relevant again.
Having multiple income streams. Never relying just on music or just on telly.
Staying visible. Pete’s 52 and still on TV regularly. Still touring. Still making money. Most ’90s pop stars can’t say that.
Where It All Goes
Five kids. That’s the big expense. School fees if they’re in a private school. Activities. Holidays for seven people aren’t cheap, even when you’re loaded.
The Surrey house costs a fortune to run. Council tax. Utilities. Maintenance. Pool cleaning. Gardening.
He’s got that Cyprus holiday home they visit regularly. Flying seven people internationally adds up fast.
Personal trainers. Home gym equipment. Staying fit for TV at 52 costs money.
Nice cars. Designer clothes for events. The lifestyle that’s expected when you’re famous.
What Happens Next
Will Pete’s wealth grow or shrink from here?
He’s 52. Pop comebacks at that age are rare unless you’re doing full nostalgia tours. Music income will probably stay steady but not grow much.
Telly could continue for years. He’s uncontroversial, family-friendly, and likeable. Perfect for daytime TV. Those gigs could keep coming till he’s 60 or older.
Property in Surrey and Cyprus will likely appreciate. That grows his wealth without him doing anything.
But five kids cost a fortune. Junior and Princess are adults now, but the three younger ones need support for years.
If Pete’s smart, and he’s proven he can be, he’ll keep what he’s got. Maybe grow it a bit. Probably won’t double it, but he won’t lose it either.
From talent show winner to ’90s pop star to nearly forgotten to reality TV fixture to respected presenter. £16 million later, the mysterious girl on the beach turned out to be pretty good for business.
