Peter Andre is under fire from fans after he performed at 16-year-old Venezuela Fury’s wedding — and many believe they’ve figured out exactly why he agreed to sing at the controversial ceremony.

The 53-year-old singer took to the stage at the lavish wedding of Tyson and Paris Fury’s teenage daughter, performing some of his biggest hits. But instead of praise, the appearance has triggered a major backlash online, with many accusing him of poor judgement.

Fans claim they’ve “worked out” the real motive behind Peter’s performance, pointing to his long-standing friendship with the Fury family and speculation that it was a paid gig. Others have criticised him for supporting what many see as a highly controversial decision to allow a 16-year-old to marry.

The backlash has been swift and brutal, with some longtime fans saying they’re disappointed in Andre for getting involved in the headline-making event. So far, neither Peter Andre nor the Fury family have responded to the growing criticism.
