BBC Celebrity Race Across The World has returned with four pairs of travellers racing from Malaysia to Australia
Junior and Prince Andre are making their mark on BBC viewers.
The brother and sister duo are among the 2026 line-up for TV favourite Celebrity Race Across The World which this time round sees the the pairs race each other from Kuching in Malaysia to Melbourne, Australia in six weeks with no phones, tight budgets and a number of check points along the way.
Joining the siblings are singer Ella Mary McMahon, known professionally as Ella Eyre, who rose to prominence through her collaboration with Rudimental on their chart-topping single Waiting All Night. She is joined by her best friend Nana.
Singer and West End star Sam Ryder is also taking part along with his his close friend and tour manager Kaz and completing the line up are TV sports presenter Jess Stelling and his son Matt.
As they all set off on their gruelling journeys, viewers rushed to social media to have their say and they already appear enamoured by Junior, 21, and his 18-year-old sister Princess, who are famously the offspring of Katie Price and Peter Andre.
The first episode on Wednesday, October 28 saw the pair try to navigate their way with some help from the locals and spending the night camping along with creepy crawlies on a coconut farm where they worked to pay for their stay.
Posting on X, formerly Twitter, one said: "Watching Race Across the World. Princess and Junior Andre could have gone off the rails. But they really couldn’t have turned out any better. Great kids."
A second said: "Junior Andre already appearing very compassionate and kind. Supporting his sister and thanking the locals." A third commented: "Princess and Junior are coming across well."
Another added: "Well I love Junior and Princess @RATW_official They’re young and they’ll learn. Genuinely nice people and should be so proud of themselves."

However, by the end of the first episode, the siblings were in last place and 230km (143 miles) away from the finish line, a day behind their rivals who had reached the first check point.
A clip showed them travelling on an overnight bus where there was a passenger vomiting in the toilet behind them, leaving viewers fearing if they will make it after their "nightmare" journey.
On X one posted: "So.. I have this feeling that Princess and Junior are not going to finish race..." While another said: "Not a good start for the Andres in last place, still a long way to go."
