A self-confessed open book – and the author of seven biographies – there’s not much the public don’t know about Katie Price.
But do you know her biggest regret?
‘Eurovision!’ she initially quips with a twinkle in her eye, quickly followed up by, ‘and some of my men choices.’
Indeed, Katie’s relationships have been tabloid fodder for years.
From three ill-fated marriages, to regretful flings and now, her new relationship with toyboy Married At First Sight star JJ Slater, 31, the nation has watched on as Katie attempts to find ‘The One’. And with every new romance has come a trail of exes in her wake.
Now, in an exclusive interview with , Katie has shared her verdict on them all, from the good to the bad and the ugly.
Katie Price has delivered her no holds barred verdict on all of her exes, including who ‘would love to see her downfall’ and who is secretly ‘still obsessed with her’ in a chat with
Perhaps her most famous relationship of all was with singer Peter Andre, 51.
The couple married in 2006 after meeting on I’m A Celebrity two years prior and they went on to welcome son Junior, 19, and daughter Princess, 16.
The pair were a fairytale couple, capturing the heart of the nation when they tied the knot in a ceremony that saw Katie arrive on a horse-drawn carriage in a bright pink wedding dress, complete with princess tiara.
Yet their relationship soon soured and by 2009 the pair had gone their separate ways.
Now, Katie admits she resents the way she’s perceived in comparison to him and has sat their children down to explain her side of the story.
‘They know the truth, and that’s the thing’, Katie shares. ‘They know that their dad is never written about in a bad way. They know I’m always written about in a bad way.
‘Their dad’s always the good, I’m always the bad, but they know the truth about everything.’
Asked if she thinks Peter or his inner circle also think she is seen as the ‘bad guy’, Katie is candid.
‘I don’t think they really care what happens to me if I’m honest’, she explains.
‘I don’t think they care. They’d love to see me fall. But I’m not. I’m on the rise. So be warned, everyone. She’s back, back in control and in power.
‘It’s about time because there’s been too many years. I’ve been bopped and bopped and bopped and now it’s like they’ve exhausted it.
‘Now I’ve come up with a fresh head, strong mind, hungry for it all and I’m back…’

Katie continues: ‘I think things are changing now. I think, word of mouth, people are realising that I’ve changed. I’ve changed my mindset.
‘I can’t control what people have written in the past. All I can do is just prove myself. I’m planning to get all my empire back.
‘I’m just bored of reading all the negative stories. I’m bored of it and I think the public is starting to realise that.
‘It’s just attack, attack and attack. When they meet me or hear my podcast, they see me as a different person.’

It’s not just Peter that Katie parted ways with on frosty terms.
In April, she was said to be furious with her ex-boyfriend Carl Woods after he met up with her former husband Kieran Hayler.
Carl met up with Kieran to share Easter dinner with the Kieran’s agent, Kirsty, Kieran’s fiancé Michelle, and sons Valentino and Apollo.
‘I’m just fed up with making Mr. Prices’, Katie explains. ‘I just call all my exes Mr. Prices. They all gang up together and then they all attack me.
‘Really, I should be flattered because they’re that obsessed with me.
‘But they didn’t complain when they were with me, did they? So that’s what you’ve got to think about. I made them.
‘I wish they’d just get on with their own lives and just leave me alone. Because I’m getting on with mine.’
Katie’s first public romance was with premier league footballer Dwight Yorke, in 2001, but they broke up soon after Katie fell pregnant with her eldest child Harvey (pictured in 2001)

Katie Price reveals she's being mentored by a PSYCOPATH on her journey to become a life coach
Katie’s first public romance was with premier league footballer Dwight Yorke, in 2001, but they broke up soon after Katie fell pregnant with her eldest child Harvey.
Harvey, now 22, has autism, partial blindness and Prader-Willi Syndrome, and Dwight denied he was the father until a DNA test proved his paternity.
Last year, Katie revealed her mother Amy contacts Dwight’s manager each year on Harvey’s birthday to see if the retired footballer wants to see him – so far the answer has been no.
Following on from Dwight she thought she found her happy ending with Peter.
But when that came to an end, and while she was on the ‘rebound’, Katie started dating cage fighter Alex Reid, 48, a mere eight weeks after their marriage ended.
Following a whirlwind romance the pair wed in Las Vegas in January 2010 but the marriage fell apart less than a year later.
Two years on, Katie fell for Argentinian model Leandro Penna, 37, after meeting him at Elton John’s Oscars party in LA.
Revealing she bedded him on the first night, the pair went on to get engaged before they split in 2012.

Later that year, Katie met part-time stripper and plasterer Kieran, who is nine years her junior.
The pair exchanged vows a mere five weeks later with Katie already pregnant with the couple’s first son Jett.
However, in 2017 the pair announced they were going to divorce, three years after she found out about Kieran’s affairs with her friends Jane Poutney and Chrissy Thomas.
They share son Jett, 10 and daughter Bunny, nine.
In July 2019, Katie announced she was engaged again to personal trainer Kris Boyson, 34, after a year of dating.
The reality star – who was still legally married to third husband Kieran at the time- made the shock announcement during an appearance on Loose Women.
Their engagement was short-lived however as the couple split in November of that year, with Katie admitting to Kris that she cheated on him.
The reality star went on to find love with Carl in July 2020 and they became engaged the following year, before their on/off relationship eventually ended earlier this year.

Being a single mother-of-five means there’s barely a moment for Katie to take for herself, but she doesn’t have any regrets.
In fact, she’d like to have even more children.
Right now, Katie is dating Married At First Sight star JJ Slater, 31 – who last month professed his love for the glamour model.
The feeling is mutual.
Katie is so sure of their six-month romance that she wants to have children with the reality star, but insists she’s in ‘no rush’ to make it happen.
‘Yes, I want more kids,’ she admits. ‘If I could get it with JJ, if he wants kids, but I’ve learned not to rush things in relationships.
‘Before, I rushed marriages, rushed kids, rushed everything, and look what happened…
‘JJ is on the same wavelength as me. There’s no rush for anything. So, I’m not rushing anything. JJ is very calm, he just lets me get on with it. He understands me and just lets me be me.

Other than her choice in men, Katie says one of her biggest regrets of her career was trying to enter Eurovision back in 2005
Asked if she ever considered giving up on men completely, Katie admits: ‘ Yeah, because I’ve just been let down, but then I didn’t really know about healthy relationships.
‘I’ve been in toxic relationships, being made to feel like a victim.
‘Being an independent woman, men find that hard and they put you down for it when there’s nothing wrong with it.’
Both Katie’s love life and personal life has been splashed over the papers for most of her life and she admits that she can be a lot to take on for prospective partners.
‘I come as a package,’ she explains with a shrug. ‘I’m not just what you read about.
‘You know, the glamour days, I love doing my photo shoots, it’s quite a lot for a man to put up with.
‘But when they get to know me as a person, I’m just a normal down to earth girl.
‘I have all this chaos that comes with me and it’s knowing how to manage things, manage your diary and manage your time.’

Katie has previously blamed the fathers of her children for her repeated rehab stints.
Reflecting on her past romances, Katie explains: ‘I can help people in relationships. Knowing your boundaries. Knowing what domestic abuse is. Knowing what narcissist behaviour is. Knowing the red flags.
‘When it comes to relationships, I think I’m definitely an expert. I’ve done enough courses around it now to know red flags, start of domestic abuse, narcissistic behavior, and knowing your worth, your validation.
‘I’ve learned so much that now I want to put into practise and help other people because I wish I knew all this stuff back then, it would have helped me in the past.’
Now, Katie wants to use her relationship experience to help other people and she is training to become a life coach.
Her choice of mentor, however, is an interesting one.
Dubbed the ‘Psychopath Life Coach’, Lewis Raymond Taylor has a history of violence, drug addiction and prison stints and has even been accused of running a cult.
So why would you want advice from a man who has confessed he is a psychopath?
It turns out millions do, and for good reason.

A look at Katie Price’s troubled past
A household name in the UK, Katie Price has lived out the highs and lows of life in the spotlight.
An open book with her fans, the mother-of-five has documented many of her woes on her various reality series and in tell-all interviews.
Having courted the limelight as a teenage glamour model, the public have witnessed Jordan’s rocket to fame and occasional falls from grace.
Despite her fame and wealth, life has not come easily for Katie, who has battled bankruptcy, burglaries, assaults and drug abuse, while also navigating a very rocky love life.
Now we take a look back at her turbulent past.

ROCKY ROMANCES
Katie’s quest for love has seen her tie the knot three times and get engaged eight.
In 1996, Katie, then a surgery-free 18-year-old, got engaged to Gladiator star Warren Furman, now 48, (better known as Ace), but they split in two years later.
She was also technically engaged to businessman Scott Sullivan, but has since admitted her heart wasn’t in it when he gave her a ring just before she was about to enter the I’m A Celebrity jungle in 2004, where she famously met Peter Andre.
Katie fell madly in love with Pete, 48, on the show and the pair got married in 2006. They went on to have two children; son Junior, 15, and Princess, 13, before they split in 2009.
Admitting she was on the ‘rebound’ Katie started dating cage fighter Alex Reid, 45, a mere eight weeks after her split from Pete.

Three months later her divorce with Kieran was made official and she set about planning her wedding to Carl.
However, it wasn’t meant to be as in November 2022 Carl revealed he had dumped Katie after claiming he found out she allegedly slept with someone else – and admitted to it.

BRUSHES WITH THE LAW
Katie is no stranger to court, having risked jail time on multiple occasions due to various driving violations.
In 2003, Katie swerved a speeding charge after police failed to arrest her within 12 weeks of allegedly clocking 70mph in a 40mph zone in her Range Rover.
Five years later she landed three penalty points after being caught talking on her mobile phone while driving. In 2009 she failed to provide the identity of the driver after her car was allegedly caught speeding in a 30mph zone and was later handed four penalty points after being clocked at 99mph and was handed four points on her licence.
The following year she was convicted for failing to be in proper control of her horsebox after veering into another lane in February and was given three points on her licence, bringing her total to 10.

Later that year she was banned from driving for six months after doing 83mph in a 70mph zone in her home county of West Sussex.
In 2012, Katie was disqualified for 12 months for failing to respond to two speeding tickets in September.
After a quiet few years Katie landed a six-month ban in February 2018 for speeding after totting up 12 penalty points for speeding. In July, photos emerged of her driving while still banned. Then in October she was arrested on suspicion of drink driving and spent 13 hours in custody after crashing into a VW Golf and a hedge on a gated estate at 2am.
In 2019 she was given a three-month ban for driving while disqualified in January of that year and was later handed a five-year restraining order banning her from contacting Michelle Penticost either directly or indirectly after hurling abuse at her during an argument at a school playground.

Then in October, Katie was banned from driving for a further 18 months for failing to inform police who was behind the wheel of her pink Range Rover during a crash in Bexley, south east London.
Two years later she crashed her BMW car on a country road near her West Sussex home in the early hours of the morning after drinking and taking drugs.
She pleaded guilty at Crawley Magistrates of drink driving, driving while disqualified and driving without insurance and is handed a 16-week suspended prison sentence.
In 2022 she then pleaded guilty to breaching a five-year restraining order not to contact, directly or indirectly, Michelle Penticost.
She avoided jail again after claiming she ‘misunderstood’ the rules of a restraining order when she sent a ‘vile and nasty’ message about her ex-husband’s fiancée.

FINANCIAL WOES
Katie was declared bankrupt in 2019 with debts of £3.2m from her failed company Jordan Trading Ltd, that was set up to oversee her perfume and cosmetics line.
She set up the company in 2003 but in 2017 an application was put in to wind up the company as she tried to sort out her finances.
When the mother-of-five was declared bankrupt she vowed to pay back £12,000 a month to creditors of the firm through an individual voluntary arrangement.
The bankruptcy meant Katie, once worth a reported £45million, faced losing her £2million 11-bedroom mansion.
She took out a second mortgage on the property in 2015, but faced monthly payments of £12,300.
In June 2022 the former model had been due to attend the Royal Court of Justice to explain to a judge why she has failed to repay millions owed to creditors.
However, the hearing was adjourned at the last minute with her solicitors giving no reason for Katie’s no show before the court.
Despite being bankrupt Katie has seemingly led a lavish life, including exotic holidays to Las Vegas and Thailand.

ADDICTION STRUGGLES
Katie’s children have threatened to ‘never speak to her again’ if she took cocaine after her highly publicised battle with drugs.
Katie also visited The Priory in 2018 when she spent 28 days as an inpatient after her family urged her to seek help following wild partying antics in Mallorca.
At the time, she was confronted by her loved ones after shocking footage emerged of her rapping ‘I love coke’ during a booze-fuelled hen do.
Katie broke down after the intervention and admitted she needed help to get over her chaotic behaviour, which she blamed on her PTSD.
Way back when: In 2020 Katie revealed she had been taking monthly drug tests to ‘build trust’ with her ex-husbands Peter Andre and Kieran Hayler (pictured in 2002)
She later said: ‘My family and friends were hurt, they didn’t know what to do. All these years in the industry I never have [done drugs] but I purely did it to self-medicate, I went to the doctors and told them the truth…
‘Self-medicating on drugs really, it was disgusting, but it was my way of dealing with it. At least I can hold my hands up, if I didn’t speak out now, I would still be in a rut’.
In 2020 Katie revealed she had been taking monthly drug tests to ‘build trust’ with her ex-husbands Peter Andre and Kieran Hayler, with whom she shares four children.
In 2021, Katie crashed her BMW while double the drink-drive limit after leaving her home to allegedly hunt for drugs during an all-night alcohol and cocaine bender.
In November 2022 Katie’s ex Carl Woods reportedly leaked a recording of his former partner speaking about drugs.
In the midst of their break-up, Carl was said to have released a recording which allegedly hears Katie saying she didn’t turn up to an event ‘because I was on coke’.

THE MUCKY MANSION
Katie purchased a sprawling property in West Sussex for £1.3million back in 2014 with the hope of turning it into a cosy family home.
However the property was left in disarray after various mishaps, including fly tipping, floods, a fire and burglaries.
Renovations kicked off in June 2019, but the influencer was left devastated when the mucky mansion was broken into and destroyed by intruders a year later.
In June 2020, thieves broke in to steal her I’m A Celebrity rucksack and leant the shower head over the ceiling which caused the bathroom to flood and the ceiling to collapse.
Just weeks later, she suffered a fresh blow as thieves broke in again, and she vowed to up security after a neighbour witnessed three men on her private property.
In 2021 the place was ransacked yet again, with thieves stealing old photographs and hard drives.
The following year she landed a £45,000 payday to chart her renovations in the Channel 4 series Katie Price’s Mucky Mansion.
She bagged a second series of the show but filming was allegedly been thrown into mayhem since her ‘filthy’ house is too dirty for production crews to shoot in.

ASSAULT
Katie suffered trauma from a young age, revealing she was raped in a park at the age of seven.
The former Page 3 star detailed the damage the ordeal has caused during an appearance on Loose Women in 2017, stating: ‘There was the sexual assault and I was later raped.
‘I have discussed before and I do believe it led to me dressing provocatively and becoming a model.
‘I had been training to be a nurse but the glamour modelling world is aimed at men. They can look but they can’t touch. You can say or do what you like in a picture.’
The media personality was also sexually exploited by a photographer as a child, revealing: ‘He took indecent photographs that I thought were innocent at the time. I was 12. He made me do pictures where I was sticking my tongue out. They looked young and girly but to him. It is sexual. He used to make these milkshakes.
‘I never took one because I didn’t like it. The police when they came around.. that’s what he did he made the girls drink them and he drugged them.’
Shocking: Katie suffered trauma from a young age, revealing she was raped in a park at the age of seven (pictured in 1995 at the age of 17)
In 2018, Katie was raped at gunpoint during a horrifying carjacking in South Africa.
Katie was thrown out of the vehicle by the attackers, during her journey from Johannesburg to Swaziland in two people carriers with the production crew.
The vehicles were ransacked of laptops, iPads, passports, cash and jewellery – but the robbers left behind a fortune in camera gear which the crew had stored on board. The attackers were never apprehended.
In September 2021 Katie was allegedly punched in the face at her home in Essex, with a 32-year-old man who was then held on suspicious of assault.
Police were called to the former glamour model’s at around 1.30am on August 23, where a man was arrested on suspicion of assault, theft and coercive and controlling behaviour.
Katie was taken to hospital and was pictured the following day with bruises to her face and an injured lip.

MENTAL HEALTH BATTLES
Katie has been open about her struggle with anxiety and depression.
In September, the mother-of-five revealed that she attempted suicide after suffering from ‘anxiety, depression and major trauma’ following her horrific 2018 carjacking.
The reality star admitted she hit rock bottom after she was raped at gunpoint during the ordeal and tried to hang herself, but after passing out she ‘saw her kids faces’ and realised she ‘never wanted it to happen again.’
Katie also said she’ll likely need therapy ‘for the rest of her life,’ after being diagnosed with PTSD.
She has received help for her mental health struggles during several stints at The Priory.
Katie thanked her therapist in a sweet Instagram post in May 2022 as she gave an update on her mental health.
She penned: ‘I’m so proud of myself and how far I’ve come changing the ways I now deal with situations that I’ve now learnt are my trigger points that I wasn’t about to control before.
‘Thank you to my therapists, consultant and my support network around me,’ Katie added a red heart emoji.
She added: ‘Tomorrow finally is a chapter I’ve completed in moving forwards, I’ll let you know tomorrow what it is.’

FAMILY MATTERS
Katie welcomed her first child, Harvey, in September 2022 but his father Dwight Yorke denied he was the father, until a DNA test proved his paternity.
The former glamour model and the former premier league footballer briefly had a romance in 2001, and broke up soon after Katie fell pregnant.
Katie has claimed Dwight ‘disowned’ their son and has no contact with him.
Her relationship with her son was shown in two BBC documentaries that charted Harvey transitioning into adulthood and Katie’s journey into researching for a specialist college that caters to Harvey’s complex needs.
Harvey is on the autism spectrum and was born with disabilities including partial blindness, ADHD and Prader-Willi syndrome.

Katie is also mother to Junior, 17, and Princess, 15, with ex-husband Peter Andre and has Bunny, eight, and Jett, nine, with ex Kieran Hayler.
In August 2022, Katie claimed she has limited access to her two youngest children after her already strained relationship with their father broke down.
Katie’s mother Amy suffers from the terminal illness idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis- which causes scarring to the lungs and makes it difficult to breathe, after being diagnosed in 2017.
The star previously revealed she’s begun to organise her mother’s funeral, after ‘accepting’ her death is imminent.
Katie had previously revealed she offered one of her own lungs for Amy, because she is currently waiting to see if she can have a transplant
Little is known about Katie’s biological father Ray after he walked out on Katie and her mother when she was just four years old.

BOTCHED SURGERY AND INJURIES
Katie has undergone an array of procedures over the years, including rhinoplasty, a silhouette facelift, 3D, veneers, lip fillers and Botox.
In 2015, just before appearing on Celebrity Big Brother, the reality star had a botched boob reduction that left her with a hole in her breast and an implant protruding from her flesh.
Katie told her shocked housemates: ‘I’ve got no tits anymore. They’ve gone. There’s not even anything there. If you saw what I’m like underneath. The scar’s gone septic. My whole implant was hanging out on New Year’s Day.’
Shortly after leaving the Big Brother house she underwent corrective surgery and had her implants swapped for a D-cup.
Katie claimed her first face lift in 2017 had been a botched job and went back under the knife the following year aged 40 to correct it.
She said at the time ‘I need to get my face re-corrected after surgeon has totally f**ked my face up’.
Ouch: Just before she starred on Celebrity Big Brother in 2015 the star had a botched boob reduction that left her with a hole in her breast
He agent added: ‘She had the thread and it really quite distorted her look. She got a lot of backlash, a lot of negative press, a lot of trolling, everyone saying she’d taken it too far, when actually it was a job that had not gone to plan.’
In 2012 she jetted to Belgium to correct botched surgery on her breasts, saying her surgeon was utterly shocked by the ‘awful’ previous procedure.
Katie said: ‘They looked deformed, they were absolutely awful. That’s the first time I’ve gone to a different surgeon. I had to go back to Frank with my head down, ashamed that I’d been to another clinic.’
In August 2020, Katie revealed a freak accident had left her with two broken feet after she had plummeted 25ft off a wall at a theme park in Turkey.
Upon her return to the UK, she was left using a wheelchair and fearing she would be paralysed before doctors told her she could be in recovery for up to two years and was initially unable to walk for six months.

PET TRAGEDIES
Katie has been lambasted by animal charities and petitions have been set up to stop her owning animals after several pets died under her care.
In November 2022, Katie’s beloved dog Sharon was killed when she allegedly escaped and ran onto the road where she was hit by a car.
Pomeranian Sharon was picked up off the A24 by the driver of the vehicle and taken to to Arun Vets in Pulborough, West Sussex, where her death was confirmed.
Weeks before she was left distraught after losing her beloved Chihuahua Captain while on holiday in Dorset.
Katie’s dogs Rolo, Queenie and Sparkle died in recent years, while she has also lost a pet chameleon and a beloved horse.
In 2021 it was revealed she she gave away her daughter Princess’ puppy Precious to a member of the crew on her TV show.

Lewis, 34, hosts his own podcast, Life Reclaimed, and had his life story featured in Netflix documentary, The Psychopath Life Coach, last year.
Explaining where the name came from, he explains: ‘When I was 18, I was diagnosed with an antisocial personality disorder, which is the clinical term that’s associated with psychopathy.
‘So, I am technically a psychopath and I’m also a life coach.
‘Neurodiversity is a marginalised part of society where people put this label of a “psychopath” on people when actually there’s a lot more to it.
‘There’s a lot of people on this spectrum that have these antisocial personality traits and don’t always do things negatively. Sometimes they harness those skills for positives.’
Lewis met Katie last year when she appeared on his podcast and, like many, she was blown away by his life story.
Nine years ago Lewis was convicted for the 11th time after punching a man so hard the victim had a mini-stroke and a bleed on his brain.
Having hit rock bottom, Lewis realised: ‘I was repeating the same cycles and doing the same things over and over again, expecting a different result. That’s the definition of insanity!
‘So for the first time, I started to take responsibility for myself and look at myself in the mirror and realise that if I wanted my life to change then I had to change.’
Less than a decade later, Lewis is the CEO of $25million life coaching business, The Coaching Masters, and became an overnight celebrity following the release of a Netflix documentary about his life.
It’s a transformation that impressed not just millions of viewers, but Katie too.
‘You couldn’t make this up!’ Katie exclaims. ‘When you see his story, you would never ever think in a million years watching him in his younger days how he would turn things around.
‘He’s a prime example of how you can have a real s**t time and turn things around if you get yourself together and get the help that you need.’
Yet despite his newfound following, Lewis is not naïve to thinking people might question his life coaching career, or indeed Katie’s.
Katie is working with Lewis Raymond Taylor, dubbed The Psychopath Life Coach, in a bid to turn her life around and help others overcome trauma
Lewis reasons: ‘I think a lot of people are going to be laughing and joking and saying, “how can a psychopath be a life coach? How can Katie Price be a life coach when she’s put herself in this situation and that situation?”
‘But you’ve got to think Katie’s been in the industry for decades, still inspiring people and still has millions of followers. It takes a lot of resilience to be able to do that.
‘There will be a lot of people that have a lot of negative things to say, but there’ll also be a lot of people that have been inspired and empowered by Katie for decades now.
‘She will make a very big difference to a lot of people because they will resonate and connect with her in a way that they won’t resonate and connect with anybody else.
‘So watch out, Katie Price is here to make a difference.’
The Real Husbands of Katie Price
In the decades since she first rose to fame, Katie Price has enjoyed – and quite likely endured – a decidedly busy love life that has seen her walk down the aisle three times before heading to divorce court in equal measure. Here’s a look at the trio with whom she exchanged ‘I dos’… and ‘I don’ts’:
PETER ANDRE (2005 – 2009)
The nation got to watch love blossom between the pair when they starred alongside one another on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here back in 2004. The flying sparks soon became nuptials, with blushing bride Katie and her erstwhile pop hunk beau tying the knot at Highclere Castle (the grand Berkshire estate of Downton Abbey fame) in September 2005. Katie, who was already mother to son Harvey (born in 2002 following a romance with former footballer Dwight Yorke), soon started a family with her new husband. The couple welcomed son Junior in 2005, while daughter Princess followed in 2007. Creation between the pair also came artistically, with the release of reality programmes, a failed talk show and a foray into the music world. However, after four years of securing their position as the Ken and Barbie of reality TV and glossy magazine deals, the pair announced in 2009 that they were going their separate ways.
ALEX REID (2010 – 2012)
Katie soon switched her romantic allegiance from a onetime ab-bearing pop heartthrob to musclebound MMA fighter Alex Reid. The two met at Michelle Heaton’s 30th birthday party at London’s Cafe de Paris. But shortly after they got together, Katie dumped Alex on live TV, only for him to win her back and the pair go from strength to strength. Weeks after proudly cheering her man on to a win on the 2010 edition of Celebrity Big Brother (also featuring none other than her ex-boyfriend Dane Bowers), Katie jetted off to Las Vegas to tie the knot with her new partner in February 2010 after just seven months of dating – and nine months after divorcing Peter. Following their Sin City sojourn, the pair returned to their native UK, where they had a formal ceremony – which was filmed for a TV series. However, after just 11 months of marriage, the pair announced they were splitting and their divorce was finalised in March 2012. While Katie declared at the time that she married Alex ‘too soon’, she would later go on to reveal that a major factor in their split was his cross-dressing alter-ego Roxanne.
KIERAN HAYLER (2013 – 2021)
Showing herself to be a true woman of the times, Katie embarked on a romance with former stripper Kieran after the two met on the now-defunct Blackberry Messenger service in 2012. And just two months after altering the paths of their lives via those thumb-tapped fateful opening messages, the twosome would go on to exchange nuptials in the Caribbean. Kieran proposed to a thrilled Katie on Christmas Day 2012, and just three weeks later, the pair would be pronounced husband and wife in the idyllic shores of the Bahamas on January 16, 2013. They had their marriage blessed in Weston-super Mare, and in the months that followed, it appeared that Katie had finally found her happily ever after. They welcomed son Jett in August 2013, and daughter Bunny in August 2014. But Katie’s world came crashing down in 2014, when she discovered that Kieran had cheated on her with her close friend of 20 years, Jane Pountney, and was enjoying a fling with another of her pals, Chrissy Thomas. After publicly lashing out at all parties involved (and naming her pet pigs after her friends-turned-foes), Katie appeared determined to make things work when she renewed her vows with Kieran in 2015. But alas, it would not turn out to be third time lucky for Katie, as the pair split in 2018 amid even more cheating allegations. Their ‘amicable’ divorce was finalised in early 2021.
