During my discussions with Katie Price’s confidants while covering her separation from Peter Andre in 2009, a recurring sentiment emerged: Katie prioritizes the well-being of her kids above everything else. Her publicist often emphasized this by saying, “Katie is only concerned about what’s best for her children.
If we had faith in all the updates from Team Katie since Peter ended their four-year marriage, it would seem like she was a contender for Mother of the Year no less than ten times.
however, it appears her devotees are only just realizing what I had long suspected – that she hadn’t been entirely altruistic towards Princess, aged 18, and Junior, age 20, as she had portrayed.
After splitting with Peter, the Mysterious Girl singer, Katie often met with me following their 2004 encounter on I’m A Celebrity. They married shortly after in a romance whirlwind, and from then on, she frequently discussed herself, her children, emphasizing that they were her top priority.
During our marriage with Pete, I was primarily focused on ensuring its success. However, following our separation, I’ve shifted my attention towards myself, my children, and my career,” she shared during our meeting at the launch of her book Sapphire at Selfridges in London.
During a later discussion, she mentioned: ‘I prefer Pete to exclude our kids from the divorce proceedings – it’s something I believe should be handled privately between us.’
It’s like he is trying to manipulate the situation to make me look bad all of the time.’
Regrettably for Katie, it seems her actions have been more revealing than her words. In my coverage of what was then the most significant rift in the entertainment industry, I found myself an eyewitness to a disturbing spectacle that has once again made headlines.
Last Thursday, the disagreement intensified significantly as Katie suggested Peter join ‘negotiations for peace’, asserting she was barred from being in Princess’s latest reality show, The Princess Diaries, and alleging that her daughter had been mistreated by becoming entangled in a family conflict.
After a stretch of time, Peter, who is 52, decided to speak up about his perspective, stating: “For the past 16 years, I’ve chosen to remain quiet amidst the continuous falsehoods spread by my ex-wife and her family. My silence was motivated by the wellbeing of my children and loved ones. However, staying silent has become quite aggravating. Today, this stops.
In 2018, due to valid concerns for their safety, Junior and Princess stayed under my guardianship. I took care of them until they became adults.
In 2019, a court-ordered agreement regarding our family matters was established and made legally binding. Until now, I’ve chosen not to disclose this detail in consideration of my kids’ privacy.
Regrettably, I have several unfounded claims and false statements that still require my attention. I plan to address these issues thoroughly over the next few months.
I have several recollections of my own of Katie and Peter’s bitter split.
As an ardent admirer, I couldn’t help but notice the swift turn of events when Katie, freshly single, started dating cage fighter Alex Reid – a relationship that led to their marriage in a private Las Vegas ceremony. Just following her break-up with Peter, they jet-setted off for a romantic getaway in Marbella, leaving her kids behind. This twist, given her frequent assertions about prioritizing her children, left me quite puzzled.
Katie, who’s not typically reticent about publicity, was enraged upon discovering that we were both on an easyJet flight to Marbella, reporting the same story – and vocally criticized me for my presence.
While she was basking in the sun, sea, and open displays of affection with Alex, their children, Junior aged four and Princess aged two, remained at home with their father.
It seems that for a brief moment, they might have found some relief, as per reports from those close, due to Katie often disrupting family peace with her recurring criticisms towards Peter’s actions.
In September 2009, Katie became very angry with Peter because he chose to leave Junior and Princess under the care of his manager, Claire, instead of their nanny, who was unwell, while he went out to promote his newest album.
From my professional perspective, I understand that Katie considered the kids under Peter’s supervision, so when she learned he wasn’t around, it understandably caused a stir. The truth is, there was absolutely no cause for alarm. It was perfectly fine for Katie to embark on her holiday with Alex.
According to my source, Katie and Claire are no longer on good terms due to their disagreement about the divorce. As a result, Katie preferred that they not be in her custody because she found their presence disruptive and frustrating.
Simultaneously, Katie shared with me that Peter was upset with her due to her introducing their kids to her latest beau, Alex Reid.
At the same moment, Katie revealed to me that Peter was annoyed at her for presenting their offspring to her new companion, Alex Reid.
Or:
Concurrently, Katie disclosed to me that Peter was irritated with her over her decision to bring their kids into contact with her fresh romance partner, Alex Reid.
Katie sighed, feeling upset that Pete criticized her for meeting Alex,” or “Katie was dismayed as Pete blamed her for meeting Alex.” (continuing with the dialogue) “It’s not fair, she lamented, as he’s making everyone think negatively of me. I’m the one who was wronged here – he left me, ended our marriage. I can be strong, but there’s a limit to how much I can bear – and I’ve reached it now.
Katie’s public relations spokesperson explained that she wouldn’t invite anyone into her family home if she believed, in any way, that it could potentially harm her children.
Regarding Katie, I must admit I held a favorable opinion towards her, even after the easyJet incident. However, it is evident now that I should have taken heed of the warning from an informant: ‘Be wary of Katie when she talks about the children; they are merely manipulative pawns.’
The significant point of contention arose when Katie forbade Peter from including his disabled son Harvey (son of former Manchester United footballer Dwight Yorke) in his personal documentary, causing immense distress to Peter as he’s always considered Harvey as his own child. After receiving instructions from Katie’s lawyers, the inclusion of then seven-year-old Harvey was prohibited from appearing in the reality series “Peter Andre: Moving On.
She expressed a desire to keep him out of sight when she wasn’t managing him personally. However, coincidentally, Katie showcased Harvey during his seventh birthday party in promotional materials for ITV2, which were used to advertise her program, “What Katie Did Next.
According to someone with knowledge of the matter, Peter expressed his desire for Harvey to be included in the series. Given their frequent interaction, it seems unusual that Harvey isn’t part of the show alongside the other children. It appeared as though Katie made this decision more for personal reasons, using Harvey as a means to target Pete.
However, the saddest event perhaps occurred when, in 2009 during Christmas, Katie enlisted renowned lawyer Fiona Shackleton – who also represented Sir Paul McCartney in his divorce – to prevent Peter from taking Princess and Junior on a two-week trip to Australia.
Katie was extremely upset when her ex-partner announced plans to keep their kids with his mom Thea and dad Savvas for the entire holiday season, as Savvas was too sick to travel to England.
It seems that Katie cruelly sent Peter a letter about a potential breach in the child custody agreement made post-divorce, raising questions about her commitment to what’s best for their children.
As a loyal confidant of Peter, I’ve got to share some insights. It seems Katie wasn’t consistently acting in the best interests of those children, as if she was perpetually believing herself to be in the right. However, it appears the truth is now emerging, and rest assured, this revelation won’t sit well with her at all.
