PETER Andre has revealed he was beaten by cruel bullies at school who called him racist names - and it still haunts him to this day.
The brothers, who have Cypriot heritage, were targeted growing up with Peter explaining: "We suffered racism bad as kids and called greasy wogs. I was beaten quite a few times from kids at the school." He said: "To this day I don’t wear my hair curly purely because when I look in the mirror I see what those kids used to call me, even now at 47 years old. You'd think I'd be over it."
Reflecting on moving from London, where he was born, to Australia, he continued: "In that period of time, yeah. Bullying is a horrible thing. It really is horrible. On every level. Unfortunately it happens. It's been going on for generations.
