Katie Price is a mess and seems beyond help?

Owing HMRC £1000s is not a single mistake !!

Traffic offensive are worrisome

I agree with all of this

She will die on the operating table one day and that surgeon will have the title of killing her

Too many drink and drive and needs maybe prison as nothing else is working

Bad choices but needs help

There are also concerns about her care of the 2 youngest. Her daughter unsupervised on social media and also being allowed to have her own YouTube channel at age 9. Their dad is currently trying to get more access to them legally because Katie has stopped him seeing them. I'd read the youngest son had been out of school for a very long time but not sure if he still is. I feel very sorry for those children.

I do feel that someone who has a restraining order, due to their behaviour towards another parent, probably isn’t a terribly nice person.

surely she must realise what a mess she has become?

Of course she doesn't, that's the point. She is clearly unwell and needs help, not condemnation.

She appears to be a nasty piece of work the way she treated Alex Reid the way she has treated and harrased her ex Kieran and his new partner. It's far from having made a few mistakes she has destroyed peoples lives and could have ended others with her drunk driving and drug driving

Have you heard of jury by social media. And kicking someone when they're down.

it isn't going to make the slightest difference to KP being out there and at risk of running down a MNer's loved one by slagging her off on here. That's disingenuous.

saying that a man would be given a hard time is the same old trope trotted out all the time. That doesn't make any difference to KPs personal behaviours or sort out her mental state.

so it just leaves a thread like this being a magnet for gossip and people getting some salacious pleasure from slagging her off, when her behaviour hasn't affected them in the slightest. I'm amazed these threads are allowed to stand.

Her drink driving could have affected any of us actually what a ridiculous comment

There seems to be a real divide here between feeling sorry for her and the opposite. I feel that if she has adhd and drug addiction she needs help. Obviously she isn’t getting that. The constant baby craving seems like someone wanting to be loved. A lot of men using her for fame. Constantly changing her face/body. I hope she gets the help she needs.

She was on women's hour the other day - talking about the surgery she has had and why she wouldn't recommend it. She sounded very Katie Price, but interviewed sensibly and well I thought. She's definitely been exploited over the years and treated badly - certainly since Dwight.

My late teens dd didn't know who Katie price was until recently when Katie did a podcast with some fella. She talked about being six months pregnant and sleeping with Gareth gates. So dd did a quick google and it blew her mind a bit.

Seriously let's think about that one incident from her. A pregnant woman in her mid twenties sleeps with a 17 year old virgin then sells the story to the papers. Then brings the story up over and over again for all these years. Wtf. If this had been a man who spent their life boasting about taking a 17 year old girls virginity and then dragged her name through the mud about it, spoke about it in detail for years and years, can you imagine the back lash!. Yet Katie price seems to think it's funny even!.

I think one of her exes said her brain isn't wired right?. I think this is pretty true. She needs some serious therapy. Not just the fake priory crap either.

I brought up my kids as a single parent, one of whom had o.d.d. and aspergers. It was extremely stressful on a daily basis and I imagine bringing up Harvey was extremely challenging as he has far more complex needs.
Katie has always had far more people around her than I ever did, but as others have said...possibly not the right people.
I also got myself a few speeding tickets in quick succession when I started my driving job and was under pressure. I was only slightly over the 30mph limit each time but I could have lost my license and it scared me. I learned from my mistakes and now have a clean license.
I think this is the issue, mistakes repeated are not mistakes, they are habits, and bad habits that could kill people are unforgivable. I'm amazed she's not been jailed.
I feel terrible for the animals that have died in her care. I take no risks with my dogs, as I would never forgive myself if something awful happened. They get plenty of freedom but it is always safe. Again, it feels like Katie doesn't learn from these accidents as they continue to happen.
I have no doubt she adores her kids and her animals, but she does need to rethink her attitude.
It's very sad what's happened to her, and she's definitely been a victim at times, but in many ways she's her own worst enemy. I hope she doesn't have a child with her very new bf. She needs to focus on herself.

As an addendum, I would clarify that I do think she deserves condemnation for any illegal stuff like the driving offences etc.

She also seems to accidentally kill her pets. I think she's should start counselling, and stop dating and procreating.

I don't see how she's not ended up inside

These threads soliciting nasty comments about KP appear regularly. It’s one thing to have a low opinion about her but quite another to deliberately stimulate hatred towards her on a public forum. I have reported this thread.

I am not a fan of KP and I don’t know her but it is surely obvious that she has mental health issues. The law is responsible for dealing with her law breaking. Threads like this just stoke screeching hatred, like medieval witch trials.

I feel for her having very obvious MH issues but the way she has treated animals in her care is appalling and there is no excuse for that. My sympathy for her stopped when her animals all started dying

Wikipedia tells me she's 45. You can add "deluded" to the long list of what's wrong with her.

I didn’t know that. I saw an interview where she’s described the challenges involved in raising Harvey plus dealing with the sickening jokes and comments people made about him. It seemed incredibly difficult as he grew older, heavier and increasingly violent. I thought she did so well keeping him at home for as long as she did and I really couldn’t blame her for seeking residential care in the end. Particularly as Harvey’s poor excuse for a ‘father’ washed his hands of him when he was tiny.

Same here. If this was about "someone else" it would have been removed before 5 posts in. It's not in MN spirit at all.

She’s an addict with mental health issues, having been abused and objectified all her life and obviously needs help.

she hasn’t had a single decent person to support or advocate for her. She’s been raped, abused and repeatedly cheated on.

Both her eldest sons father and Gareth Gates said disgusting things about her when she stated he’d fathered her child/ they’d had sex. Not just denials but really vicious insulting crap. Gareth Gates publicly threatened legal action despite them having been in a relationship. I can’t imagine what that does to someone’s self esteem.

it doesn’t excuse her behaviour but is certainly an explanation. This thread is awful.

This.
And you Always get posters who say they met her and she's really lovely. 🙄
So in the few minutes they said hello at a book signing or in a crowded public area, they had them sussed.
Everyone is also forgetting about the horses. There was at least one killed on the road outside her home.
I had no idea about the latest TikTok dog abuse one.
Smacked it because it sat on her jumper?
(She'll dump it and buy the next exotic pet, so it doesn't matter to her)
And posted that on TikTok?
What else does she do that doesn't see the light of day.
She's an utter disgrace of a human.
No excuse for animal abuse and drink/drug driving.
None.

This. Mumsnet is full of celebrity arse lickers, it’s so strange. She was banned from her child’s school for screaming at her children’s stepmother that she was a fucking cunt, many times in front of all the children present- including her own.
I imagine if that tale was told in AIBU? Everyone would think she was a terrible mum, but she’s famous so her behaviour is constantly ignored, justified and excused on here.

I'm fed up of the pious claims she is more to be pitied and merely in need of help. She's had endless allowance (because she's a celeb, and she cites Harvey) and opportunity to clean her act up, and the type of resources at her finger tips that regular people, who genuinely suffer depression and anxiety, could only dream of.

It seems to me that her issues are largely down to immaturity and very poor lifestyle choices.

She's also very vengeful, she tries to publicly ruin anyone who crosses her. Fortunately the public see her for what she is now (as opposed to the period of time she was taken seriously as a savvy business woman). She ruined Gareth Gates career and reputation, and she'd've gladly did the same to Peter Andre if she could've got anyone to take her seriously.
