When asked by his daughter how he felt, the doting father replied: "I haven't felt like this for two or three years. I had Covid, but that was a different kind of feel, but that was horrible."

Meanwhile, back in August, Peter confessed he couldn't have been prouder when Junior just signed with Rebel Records and Columbia Records UK.
