| Singer Peter Andre has accepted "substantial" damages over a newspaper claim he was unfaithful to his estranged wife, model Katie Price. | Singer Peter Andre has accepted "substantial" damages over a newspaper claim he was unfaithful to his estranged wife, model Katie Price. |
| Speaking outside London's High Court, he said he was "pleased" the Sunday People accepted that the story, printed in May, was "untrue and hurtful". | |
| "I have never been unfaithful to my wife - not with this girl, or any other girl," the 36-year-old said. | |
| Mr Andre split from Price in May, after three-and-a half years of marriage. | |
| "This story has led to a lot of speculation about whether I was faithful to my estranged wife which even led her to mention it on a breakfast television show last week," he said. | |
| 'Rumours and lies' | |
| "If anyone slanders my name I will not hesitate in taking action against them. | |
| "Now, hopefully, this will bring these rumours and lies to an end and let me move on with my life." | |
| The singer would not disclose how much the settlement was for. | |
| Last year, Mr Andre and Ms Price accepted damages over a News of the World article portraying them as bad parents. | |
| Although the settlement was not revealed, the couple said they would give half of the sum to the NSPCC and the Vision Charity. | |
| The other half was put into a trust fund for their children Junior, Princess Tiaami and Harvey. |
