Saint Peter is fine and enjoying his life in heaven.
Since nobody has ever passed through the Gates of Heaven and returned to earth, we do not know what is involved in the process. However, it is unlikely that St. Peter really stands guard. That is a myth that has grown up around Our Lord's statement that he would give to Peter the Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. That statement was in reference to Peter being appointed as first head of the Church and granted him the authority to make rules to govern the behavior of God's people on earth: "whatever you bind on earth shall also be bound in Heaven . . .
