Using information gathered by several celebrity net worth websites, it is possible to estimate that Peter has a net worth of around £16 million. As mentioned, the former I'm a Celebrity... star's income comes via many different channels.
Whilst his music career took off in the 90s, Peter has since branched into reality TV, ladies fragrances and even coffee shops! Back in 2009, Peter opened up to The Telegraph that he was both a spender and a saver. "I used to be more of a spender, but I'm learning as I go. I used to take friends on first class holidays and buy jewellery for girlfriends. I think I've learned my lesson," he said.
Peter also explained how his father encouraged him to invest his money after he started having musical success. In the 90s he invested in properties in Australia and bought some land in Cyprus. He said: "My father was my saviour because the money, such as royalties, would come in from Australia, and he would just invest it for me. If it had gone into my account I'd have just spent it."
Peter continued: "When I went into the jungle in 2004, some people may have thought I went in with nothing – but unbeknown to the public, I had those investments and I was starting to really do well from them."

"We landed in Italy, she had no idea where we were. I wouldn't let her look at any signs. I got her on a boat. As soon as she saw the signs of Venice she was like 'Oh my God'. So I got her all the way to Venice without her knowing. It's those kind of fun things I like to do with her," said Peter.
