I think that Peter Andre treated Katie badly and now it seems like the kids have turned on her?

Shes not allowed to be on Princess' show apparently

Has anyone seen her Insta/Fb posts this week? I don’t follow her but I saw one and watched it the other day so now they keep popping up on my feed!
She’s been in Turkey again getting more work done, she can barely talk and her eyebrows are now in her hairline
Her and JJ look like a Trans couple
Yeaterday, she said she couldn’t wait to get back to her babies (her animals 🙄)

I thought it was a very honest statement admitting that she's had problems with substances and her MH and not always been the parent she should have been but yes did go on to have a dig at presumably Pete.

I don’t think “Katie Price” and “honest” belong in the same sentence.

I also wondered about the Doctor who was trying to help her with IVF, a bit like all the cosmetic surgeons - how is that ethical to try and get a woman who’s children have been removed from her care pregnant?

Her lifestyle just isn’t consistent with parenting.

There’s always a comment “she’s a good mum though” on any post on Facebook etc about her and I just cannot understand how anyone can have that view when her children have been removed.

Someone I have huge respect for is Emily, being a step Mum is a hard role and she has taken those kids FT and clearly has a good relationship, that’s so admirable IMO, she has never commented publicly.

Yes, I too thought exactly the same thing about that doctor and how unethical it was to assist her with trying to get pregnant (at 46 🙄) when all 4 kids were in care. 5 if you include Harvey being sent to residential (I expect that may have been court ordered. I expect rules are slightly different with him as he was an adult when it all kicked off - all be it one who has mental impairment)

Yes, I think that doctor was unethical and should be ashamed that she allowed it to all be filmed and aired on TV. It just paints her in a bad light.

I guess money talks.

You can tell, that she thought KP and CW were scum that were well beneath her. But was still fawning over them for the cameras. I'd have loved to been a fly on the wall in her house when she got home to hear what she said about them.

Where is her statement please

How can recollections of gang rape of a 7yo vary? Either it did or didn't happen. Unless you're saying it actually didn't happen. Her mother sounds as woeful a parent as KP.

It didnt happen. She was flashed by a bloke in the park at age 7. Which is horrific and should never have happened, but she was not gang raped.

Even the story in her book didnt make sense. No hospital trip which would happen if a 7year old was gang raped.

She has adhd (the impulsive kind), not autism. She also suffers with stupidity. I don't think many autistics would welcome someone so loud and reckless into their community. We're not keen on drunk drivers.

Similarly very many who have adhd (whatever 'kind') who manage to hold down jobs, pay bills, care well for their children and animals, and avoid drinking and driving/ drugs. She's a thoroughly broken car crash of a woman, for many reasons far beyond her neurodivergence.

From the mother of one child with autism and one with adhd who are turning into wonderfully well adjusted young adults.

I don't think PA is a saint, but documentaries are edited to present "good telly" so I'm a bit sceptical that he's a total a-hole. However he's stepped up, realised that he needs to get his act together for his career and family. I think KP has been enabled by her family and others around her. He's married a good and stable influence in Emily whereas KP just drifts from one cock to another.

As soon as she started talking about adopting and wanting more children i knew that something was not right. It's a pattern with women whose children were removed that they want to be loved and so keep having children. As for adopting there was no way she'd pass the process to adopt here or abroad.

Same with the surgeries - no surgeon here would touch her with a barge pole so she goes to Turkey where they don't have the same ethics.

I think she has AdHd but other things going on, possibly ODD. I have a teen ADHD DD who has other things too and it has been extremely hard to get the support she needs, but we are getting there.

She's not had the right guidance over the years, just people who bow down to her. It is very sad.

FishersGate · 16/08/2025 09:15

Not KPs biggest fan but this thread is pretty vile. No one knows what has happened only what they have read 3rd or 4th hand. Or opinions based on what they have seen. I have plenty of views as my own mother left me when I was 5. After being abused and left with an alcoholic father. No way is PA a complete saint. But it makes good PR and viewing doesn't it.

He did try to see Harvey, but she made it impossible because he wouldn’t be with her. He gave up and walked away - which is shit considering he had enough funds to have forced access to through court if he really wanted to step up.

He has paid a decent chunk of maintenance for Harvey over the years though and made sure it went to her mum as she clearly couldn’t be trusted to not spunk it on holidays and surgery for herself. I hope Amy actually made sure it was spent on Harvey.

I don’t really have a negative opinion about Dwight if he did choose to not be involved. If she’d decided to abort, he wouldn’t have had a say and I don’t think men should be forced to be a parent just on the say so of a woman who they’ve shagged a few times. It certainly doesn’t justify them using a kid to exert control and force the man into a relationship. It’s not an equal decision so I find it hard to judge men too harshly in those situations. He contributed financially, which I think is an acceptable amount of responsibility.

I think we all know this isn't true.

What a disgusting thing to say.

LuckysDadsHat · 16/08/2025 07:18

Her "manager" aka her sister, had put out a statement allegedly from KP (no way she wrote this as she is basically illiterate) about saints and sinners and admitting to some things but its all someone else's fault and just a long list of excuses. She has made it a story as she knows the comments would not be supportive for her, the old adage of when you're in a hole stop digging springs to mind.

Shes getting attention but its far from the attention she wants as now everyone realises how much she lies about stuff constantly.

NeelyOHara · 16/08/2025 06:55

FishersGate · 15/08/2025 15:12

No one mentioned Dwight York yet then? If KP is such a dreadful mother what is he?

A really dreadful dad? Both absolute shit houses.

looselegs · 15/08/2025 18:01

Like he's the only father in the world that would do that....

i don’t see this as him saying he is father of the year. It is just a “funny” anecdote written for his fans, saying he ended up looking silly because he got stuck too. Hardly making g himself a hero - more like the embarrassing dad. just like any dad would post. You and I may not be interested but Andre has thousands of fans who follow him and want to hear this stuff.

HotDogKetchup · 16/08/2025 06:41

She mentions she just wants to be in the background

Exactly and if that’s the case have a quiet word. It’s just another drama to keep her relevant. She’s forcing the kids into her chaotic orbit and it’s not fair.

Someone I have huge respect for is Emily, being a step Mum is a hard role and she has taken those kids FT and clearly has a good relationship, that’s so admirable IMO, she has never commented publicly.

Didn’t she also win a lot of parent of the year awards back in the day?

I wish they would properly cancel her and get her off all media. She won’t shut up, giving interviews and doing her awful podcast. She mentions she just wants to be in the background while Junior and Princess do their thing but they are grown up now. A good mum would leave them to the enjoy their opportunities. She reckons she has missed out on so much. Unfortunately, that is what happens when you get caught up with drugs.

And she continues the public goading of Andre creating the narrative that he is abusive (which a lot of people on this thread seem to have swallowed) when we all saw with our own eyes what she did to him. Her “team” put out edited clips of their show which make it look as though he is the abusive one. I am one of the first to call out toxic masculinity but I hate injustice.

As for the press: they all knew about the court order that placed Junior and Princess in Andre’s care and kept quiet about it.

The youngest were taken out of her care by social services due to safeguarding and from Pete's post it seems like a safeguarding issue as well as to why the elder two went to live with him full time although SS has never been mentioned in relation to the older two. Yet she was talking in her latest podcast about what a good mum she is - it does seem that her MH issues go beyond ADHD, maybe they are that severe that she is / was genuinely incapable of parenting, but from what P said in her show Katie is in a better place now, hopefully that means she can still have a relationship with her younger kids.

Look, if I link I can predict the responses "oooh because that's such a reliable source " etc etc and it'll derail the thread. I've made very clear it is an allegation not a fact. It should be Google- able

You can look it up using search terms if you wish. I stated very clearly it was an allegation.

That’s quite an allegation to make if you don’t have any proof.

Well don't blame me FFS - blame the internet sources. I'm not an accuracy verifying. Although what I will say is : the poor kids weren't taken out of her care lightly. It's difficult enough to pull on Joe public, I'm sure being "important" (celebrity/rich) offers a bias in their favour. And for it to have got to this : well, I'm inclined to believe what I've read to be honest.
