Celebrity couple Jordan and Nineties pop star Peter Andre look set to follow the lead of a growing number of stars by adopting from the Third World.

The glamour girl is currently eager to add a disabled foreign child to her family. 

She was spurred into action after being reduced to tears by a recent BBC 4 documentary, Bulgaria’s Abandoned Children, which depicted shocking scenes of cruelty and suffering among disabled orphans in the former Communist state.

The 30-year-old already has two children with 35-year-old Andre: Junior, three and Princess Tiaamii, one. The couple are also bringing up Harvey, the autistic and partially blind six-year-old son of Jordan and footballer Dwight Yorke.
 
Particularly moving for the couple was the fact that disabled children in Bulgaria are rarely able to find adoptive parents: “No one wants them,” the model told The Sun newspaper.
 
If they go through with a plan, the couple could face an 18-month wait as legal issues are resolved. Nonetheless, determined to give a disabled orphan “a better life”, Jordan has consulted a lawyer with a view to joining the likes of Madonna and Angelina Jolie among the ranks of celebrity adopters.
