Emily Andre, wife of Peter Andre, intentionally avoids complimenting her 11-year-old daughter, Millie, on her looks. She prioritizes praising Millie's talents and personality to prevent her from becoming overly focused on her appearance. While she acknowledges this approach might seem unusual, she believes it's crucial to avoid making appearance the central theme for her children, though she does compliment her young son's handsomeness.
Emily also enforces strict rules regarding makeup for Millie, allowing only clear mascara, clear eyebrow gel, and lip gloss. She believes Millie's skin is perfect and doesn't need makeup, expressing concern about adult skincare products marketed to pre-teens containing harsh ingredients unsuitable for young skin, citing an instance where Millie experienced skin irritation from a face mask. Furthermore, the couple has a policy of banning their children from social media until they are 16, a rule that has been eased by Millie's school banning smartphones for her year group. Emily is concerned about the negative impact of social media on young people's mental health and the social pressures associated with online presence.
