"You've got to work, son" says Junior Andre on hard work music and London's late nights
Junior Andre opens up about juggling night shifts on the London Underground and his rising music ambitions. What drives the son of Peter Andre and Katie Price to choose hard graft over the easy route to fame?
There’s something unexpected about seeing Junior Andre clocking in for late-night shifts deep beneath the capital. At nearly 21, with a famous surname and a growing pop career, many might expect his days (and nights) to be filled with studio sessions and red carpets. Instead, Junior’s been hustling on the London Underground, driven by ambition, independence, and the lesson drummed into him by his dad:
“You’ve got to work, son.”
Speaking from the West Sussex home he shares with girlfriend Jasmine Orr, Junior cuts a grounded figure. He’s candid, even a little mischievous about online whispers questioning why he's working when music is his main gig. For Junior, that practical night job is about more than just keeping the lights on.
“I have!” he insists in response to those saying, "You’ve never done a day’s hard work in your life."
Building respect – and a music career – underground
Night shifts on the London Underground aren’t most pop stars’ first choice, but for Junior, they represent both funding and freedom. His mission? To become “a respected artist in the industry” and, in five years’ time, to be settled financially. “I’ve learned the value of money and work,” he says, making clear that no career is built on shortcuts.
Working in the tunnels hasn’t diminished his passion for music. If anything, it's sharpened his hunger. Junior dreams of the day when his main source of income is what's coming from the stage and the studio. Until then, he’s happy doing both: grinding for his dreams and living a little real life most sons of celebrities rarely taste.
Family vibes, couple life and the art of doing it your own way
Living with girlfriend Jasmine Orr, age 25, has meant new routines but also a stronger bond – not just between them, but with his family, too. Jasmine says she’s grown much closer to Junior’s relatives in recent months, showing how tightly knit their circle is becoming.
Junior’s admiration for Jasmine shines through:
“I tell her every day she’s beautiful.”
For the young couple, ordinary routines mix with showbiz moments, striking a balance that keeps Junior rooted in reality. Despite recent rumours about their engagement, the pair look resolutely towards the future, on their own terms.
The next move – music, TV, and mental health advocacy
Junior doesn’t want to be pigeonholed as just “the singer with famous parents”, nor as someone who takes opportunities for granted. He’s vocal about wanting to break into TV and presenting, perhaps shows like Love Island or Aftersun, but his sights are equally set on something deeper: men’s mental health.
He feels it’s vital more men speak out:
“A lot of men don’t talk enough.”
Using his platform, Junior hopes to drive change, starting with open conversations and maybe even future campaigns. With roots in music and eyes on TV, he’s also pulling for a generation of young men who need a bit more honesty and support.
What next for Junior Andre?
As he juggles studio time, platform announcements and love at home, Junior Andre is carving out his own reputation. Can he become the respected artist he wants to be – and use his fame for something meaningful? Only time will tell, but working nights on London’s rails might be the most honest start anyone in showbiz could dream of.
