He’s been shifting his focus of acting in recent months after making a name for himself in the music industry.
And Peter Andre’s latest project saw him jet off to Cyprus where he filmed Channel 5 detective drama, The Sunshine Murders.
The 52-year-old singer spent weeks filming against the striking backdrop of Pathos for the TV series, which is set at the 5-star Constantinou Bros Asimina Suites Hotel.
And Peter recently had the chance to go back as he enjoyed a cast reunion at the hotel with his co-stars Dora Chrysikou and Emily Corcoran.
Making the trip a family affair, Peter was joined by his eldest children Junior, 20, and Princess, 18, along for the trip, as well as Junior’s girlfriend Jasmine Orr, 24.
Peter stars in The Sunshine Murders as criminal pathologist George Constantinou, who uses his skills to help Greek Detective Helen Moustakas (Dora) and her half-sister Shirley Rangi (Emily) solve crimes.

The daytime drama sees the trio travel all over the island as they solve crimes, giving viewers an extensive tour of Paphos.
It was clear to see why Peter brought his children for his return to the island, with the star and his family treated to authentic Cypriot hospitality and a luxury setting.

The family enjoyed quality time together at dinner, with the group dining at the hotel’s beachfront restaurant Kymata.
During his time at the hotel, Peter joined his co-stars for a Q&A about his Channel 5 show, where it was explained why Cyprus had been chosen as the location for The Sunshine Murders.
Emily mused: ‘Location is very important in television and in particular in cozy crime.
‘They almost become like a character in, in the TV show itself, and we needed to find a location that gave that really great level of escapism.’

She continued: ‘We wanted variety and diversity, for the audience at home who’s maybe sitting in the living room while it’s raining outside, and we definitely found that here in Paphos and in Cyprus generally.’
The production budget was also a key factor in choosing location, with Cyprus offering a far more generous tax rebate for film and television than the UK.
‘It was an honour to welcome the production of The Sunshine Murders to our hotel,’ said Aristos Diomedous, The General Manager, on behalf of Constantinou Bros Hotels.
‘And it’s been wonderful to host the press launch back where it all began.
‘Partnerships like this not only showcase this superb property but also highlight Cyprus as a world-class filming and holiday destination.’
Peter previously said of his role on The Sunshine Murders: ‘I did acting as a kid and then the music took off and I just ran with it.
‘I always said I’d get back to the acting in my 40s and now I’ve done my first ever TV series.’
The singer stayed at the adults only, five-star Constantinou Bros Asimina Suites Hotel in a spacious suite with a private pool
The property has four super restaurants, a boutique spa, a fully equipped gym and a tennis court, and each suite has its own balcony – some with private pools
The property is established as a relaxed, intimate place to stay. Guests can lounge by one of the two resort pools or in a private cabana on its lovely beach
Sports and leisure facilities include two outdoor fresh water connected pools, one indoor heated pool, a floodlit tennis court and bowling facilities at the Asimina’s sister hotels nearby
The hotel is situated in a quiet location yet within short distance from Paphos airport, the town centre, the shops and the nightlife
Peter initially auditioned in his Australian accent before deciding to try out a Greek accent – a risk that paid off as the producers loved it.
‘I absolutely loved being on that set,’ he added. ‘Working with great actors, it was just a real pleasure.’

A holiday to die for: How to enjoy Cyprus like Peter Andre
Where to stay
Constantinou Bros Asimina Suites Hotel is stylish 5-star all-suite hotel near the picturesque harbour town of Paphos, designed exclusively for adults.
The property has four super restaurants, a boutique spa, a fully equipped gym and a tennis court, and each suite has its own balcony – some have private pools.
Where to go
You can reach some of the city’s best sites on foot via the seafront promenade in around 25 minutes or catch a bus from outside the hotel.
Because of the city’s former accolade as Capital of Culture in 2017, a lot of investment has gone into smartening up certain areas, such as the Old Town and harbour, while restoring some historic parts to their former glory.
There are plenty of places for sightseeing – House of Dionysus, Forty Columns Fortress, Paphos Castle, and the Tombs of the Kings; all easily accessible from the hotel.
What to do
For keen golfers, the Eléa Golf Club offers world-class golf in a stunning setting and is just five minutes away from the heart of Paphos.
For those who like a tipple, why not visit Oenou Yi Winery to see the stunning vineyards and enjoy a wine tasting session.
Just moments away from the winery is the Stou Kir-Yianni Restaurant, a perfect place to stop for lunch after enjoying the region’s delicious wines.
