The singer shared a heartfelt video asking for change 

"The new Online Safety Bill absolutely has my full support and I know these new laws will help make a huge difference to protect us from the awful stuff out there. It’s so important that we all join together and get behind it too. Big thanks to @NadineDorries and @dcmsgovuk for pushing forward with this and for letting me join in the conversation.

Other celebrities that have come out in support of the bill include Carol Vorderman and Love Island's Amber Gill. The proposed new legislation aims to stamp out anonymous online abuse by bringing in stricter verification and identification processes.

Last week, Peter shared a hilarious clip of daughter Princess, 14, who was staring down at her phone while Peter asked: "Are you gonna have a convo with me this morning or just?" she replied with a hmmm-like sound before her dad continued: "Good chat".
