PETER Andre has inisted he never cheated on estranged wife Jordan during their three-and-a-half year marriage.
The 36-year-old spoke out today after winning damages against a Sunday newspaper which wrongly said he made advances to a Jordan lookalike before his break up.
He said: "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.
"I have never been unfaithful to my wife, not with this girl or any other girl.
"When things are untrue, I have to take action. I've not only got an estranged wife, I've got kids as well."
The Aussie reality TV star, who split from Katie Price in May, spoke outside London's High Court after winning his case against The People.
The newspaper had incorrectly published that he had made inappropriate sexual advances to another woman before his split.
The Mysterious Girl singer accepted substantial undisclosed damages from the newspaper.
Peter added: "I'm pleased that the Sunday People have now accepted that their story was untrue and hurtful to myself.
"I also need to add that 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 general British public and most of the media have been kind to me and I can't complain about that and I'm grateful for it."
In court his solicitor, Mike Brookes, had told Mr Justice Eady: "These allegations were very upsetting and offensive to Mr Andre, as they are untrue."
He added that MGN Ltd, which owns The People, had apologised and agreed to pay the dad-of-two damages and his legal costs.
Mr Brookes said that the article gave details of a brief meeting between Peter and Shira Jones at London's Movida club last December, before his split from Jordan.
It stated that he made inappropriate sexual advances to Ms Jones shortly after meeting her.
The solicitor said all that happened was that he was introduced to Ms Jones, allowed her friend to photograph them together and then spoke to her very briefly.
MGN's solicitor, Sarah Toolan, said: "The defendant wishes to apologise to Mr Andre and is joining in the making of this statement in the hope that it will assist in setting the record straight."
