Andre: 'I can't adopt Harvey'

Rex Features

Peter Andre has revealed that he cannot adopt his stepson Harvey.

Katie Price had Harvey with footballer Dwight Yorke but Andre has cared for the 7-year-old since he was very young.

The 'Behind Closed Doors' singer said to Now magazine: "Unfortunately, I’m not allowed to adopt him and it’s not going to be an easy road. I love him."

He added: "I know I am the father figure in his life and I hope I always will be."

Andre split from Katie Price in May after three-and-a-half years of marriage.
