Peter Andre sparks debate after sharing rare photo of daughter Amelia

Peter Andre has sparked debate amongst fans after sharing a rare image of his three-year-old daughter Amelia on social media.

Peter both delighted and confused followers when he gave the world a rare glimpse into his family life and shared a snap of his daughter Amelia.

The reality TV star posted the picture to social media site Instagram, sharing the image with over 587k followers.

The photograph shows Peter's expansive garden, which features rolling grass and plenty of trees, with a fresh patch of daffodils that have popped up ready for spring.

Watching his three-year-old daughter play in the flowers, the Mysterious Girl hit-maker took a sweet snap which he posted along with a touching caption.

His caption read, 'Can I just take a moment. Amelia picking daffodils in our garden is just the cutest thing. Beautiful'

Some fans praised Peter for sharing the 'adorable' picture, with one writing, 'Adorable picture Peter,thank you to you and Emily for sharing.👍❤👍🌷'

But others were left confused, noting that the 44-year-old dad has previously spoken out that wife Emily is not comfortable with him posting pictures of their children online.

One Instagram user questioned, 'Didn't think Emily allows you to post pics up of her kids'.

Whilst another agreed, 'You said in your column not long ago that your wife wasn't happy with you posting pictures of the two kids you have together and now you post this... I don't get you lol'.

Some fans pointed out that Amelia's face could not be easily seen, presuming that this was okay, 'I believe that so long as Theo and Amelia are not too identifiable when posted on IG, their mother is ok with it.'

Back in February Peter admitted he had been 'in trouble' with Emily for sharing images on social media of their family.

Writing for his column in new! magazine he said, 'I got in trouble with the missus for posting a video of Mills and Theo and I chilling out on the sofa on social media last week,' the father of four explained.

'Even though it was a quick vid, I was in the doghouse for a bit because Ems isn't so keen on him and Amelia being on social media.

'I get excited, what can I do? Give a man a break!'
