Peter Andre feels in great shape

Peter Andre is so ”hell-bent” on winning ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ that he has reportedly hired a former marine to put him through his paces.

The ‘Mysterious Girl’ hitmaker has reportedly hired the services of a former royal marine to help him keep fit during his time on the show.

A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: ”Peter is hell-bent on getting everything as perfect as he can. Dance partner Janette Manrara wanted to make sure he had enough stamina to get through the quickstep from start to finish without stopping.

”So Peter went to visit an ex-marine fitness expert. He got down and dirty with press-ups, ladders, pulling a tyre and various other exercises until he collapsed. Peter wants the perfect six pack and the marine is making sure he doesn’t take his eye off the ball.”

And the 42-year-old star, who topped the scoreboard on the BBC One show last week, insists he knows things could ”all change” when he steps out on the dance floor this time around.

He said recently: ”This is a new week and I’m under no illusion that it could all change. It’s a completely different dance – it’s ballroom. So I might not quite be there this week but I’m so happy with where I was. Oh man, I was so focused.”
