Peter Andre has spoken out in support of James Argent after his new relationship raised eyebrows over a large age gap. The former Towie star, 34, has recently been linked to 18-year-old Italian actress Stella Turian, with the pair having been seen packing on the PDA while on a trip to Marbella this month.

A source told the MailOnline it was ‘love at first sight’ for the new couple, who reportedly met three months ago, despite the 16-year age gap.

And while some are concerned about the difference in age between the teenager and TV personality, musician Peter is ‘happy’ for the new couple and insist he ‘never’ felt an age gap between himself and his own wife.

Peter, 49, himself has a 16-year gap with his wife Emily, 33, with the pair beginning their relationship 10 years ago before going on to marry and have two children together.
