To like Katie Price

I know this is going to be unpopular but I am reading Katie Price’s latest book and I can’t help but feel the trauma she faced as a child has led to the terrible decisions she has made as an adult.

I am not condoning her behaviour but I have to admit I still have a soft spot for Katie, especially seeing how much she loves and advocates for Harvey.

I have sympathy for her because she's clearly a deeply unhappy, unhealthy person and that comes from somewhere.

However, she is the source of trauma for others and the system has to address that. You can feel sympathy at the same time as understanding that actions have consequences. She shouldn't be robbed of her rock bottom.

she is awful and no sympathy as her tits get bigger

Used to like her but struggled with the constant ivf pushing when it clearly wasn't right

It's the neglect and deaths of so many of her animals that totally put me off. So many animals have died unser her lack of care and had horrible deaths/ been rehomed. How she is still getting animals and not prosecuted is beyond me

Also don't understand why people were so angry about ant mcpartlin drink driving when she's got a sheet a mile long of driving bans yet has been caught driving several times and causing actual crashes

I live local to her and the road is a death trap. Her pets getting out repetitively and dying on the road is inexcusable as is drink driving and driving while disqualified

She's just incapable of change and self reflection. If you had a friend who just kept making the same choices over and over again, you would get worn out and distance yourself. She has/ had money; there was really no excuse for her to get some help for her emotional intensity.

What was the trauma she experienced as a child?

Sorry but no.

That's no excuse for drink driving, drinking while disqualified, stalking another woman, breaking restraining orders, going bankrupt numerous times and the list goes on.

She might be good with Harvey but it says a lot that her other children all live predominantly with their fathers

I hope the police are waiting when she steps off the plane from her latest holiday & transport her straight to jail

Yabu. At some point she needs to start taking some responsibility for her life. There's always an excuse with her
