The guys who videoed her knew exactly what they were doing and am.sure theyve been paid huge amounts for the footage. I really dont know how she's going to come back from this, I really do feel for her. She needs help

I read somewhere that Harvey is in a residential home. Best place for him at 16 and with a mother like her.

ninemillionbicycles · 09/09/2018 12:44

This is rank misogyny. Very few people would give a shit if a man behaved like this, and certainly not in this ‘won’t somebody think of the children’ manner. I’m not a fan of KP but I think she’s unfairly hounded

I agree with this 100%. None of you would be passing judgement if a Dad missed his kids first day at school, celebrity or not. If it was Robbie Williams in the video people would laugh and cringe but they wouldn't hand wringing about feeling sorry for his kids.

Sleepyblueocean · 09/09/2018 12:44

At 16 he would likely moving towards supported living anyway.

JaneJeffer · 09/09/2018 12:47

A celebrity using cocaine? I'm astonished.

BakedBeans47 · 09/09/2018 12:47

I'd imagine most people already thought she takes things like coke. I can't see it being overly shocking to anyone really. She's not really known as a quiet, cup of cocoa at bedtime type. Doubt it'll make any difference to her career at this point.

This really. I’d always assumed she took it given the constant references there have been in the media over the years to her “party lifestyle”. Is that generally not what that means?

Sisgal · 09/09/2018 12:48

It's her own fault. She's a total mess

Onedayy · 09/09/2018 12:48

I think people would be just as disapproving of this behaviour if it was a male celebrity.

Those staged shots of her and the last five minute boyfriend half naked and groping each other in public were shameful and I would feel the same if it was Robbie Williams or David Beckham.

sprinklesandsauce · 09/09/2018 12:49

I don't think it is misogyny in this case. The mother is the one constant in the children's lives. There are 5 of them with 3 different fathers and other husbands in between. The one constant throughout all of their lives has been their mother.

That's why people say these things, because the children live with their mother and it is their mother who is behaving like it, not the fathers.

and I don't see that she was set up either. Makes me laugh when celebrities claim that they were set up. They still did it, they just got caught this time!

She will end up with some newspaper deal, going into rehab, whatever. She won't come out of this badly, she never does.

Sisgal · 09/09/2018 12:50

@ninemillion bicycles dont speak on my behalf, I do have a problem with dads missing important milestones actually

flopsyrabbit1 · 09/09/2018 12:50

hmm i always thought she was the one to have had the kids taken away but some other site reckons it's somebody i was very surprised if true

GabsAlot · 09/09/2018 12:53

yeah shafted the woman whose on permrament holiday without her kids whislt goin g bankrupt

she brings it on herself

PollyFlinderz · 09/09/2018 12:54

I have a bit of a soft spot for her.

So do I and it surprised me once I realized I did because in many ways I’m quite a fuddy duddy.

I also have a son with extremely complex needs who I’ve managed to keep at home with a round the clock 2-1 care team and I feel very upset at the thought of Harvey perhaps having to go into a residential setting after this. I saw them on TV together once and they were very happy and comfortable with each. It’s not a given he would be due to transition and it’s sad it may be forced on him earlier than need be.

CrispbuttyNo1 · 09/09/2018 12:55

I used to admire KP and defended her when people slagged her off but not any more. She’s an idiot. She’s so scared of getting old and past it that she’s behaving like a teenager rather than a mother of 5. Nobody is forcing her to go clubbing in Spain, hang around with a bunch of strangers, drink until she loses any last bit of sense, snort coke, and basically make a complete fool of herself. She’s doing it all by herself.

She’s making an absolute fool of herself.

flopsyrabbit1 · 09/09/2018 12:56

used to like her years ago but no time for her now

i see the ex is been given air space to talk about their relationship,they were planning marrage ffs

SummerGems · 09/09/2018 12:57

Why does anyone care? Why does anyone want to watch the car crash that is her life?

The woman is a vile excuse for a mother but she loves it all. Every bit of footage, she craves it, seeks it, and it’s because people continue to watch it. If people just treated her like the disaster that she is and ignored her she would go away.

Have no sympathy for her what so ever. She knows exactly what she’s doing, and those who think she’s great need their heads read.

And no, nothing to do with misogyny, I would think the same regardless of who it was. So Harvey is in residential and Peter Andre has his two kids living with him? No wonder she keeps having more kids, she needs something to sell after all...

LetsGoBitches · 09/09/2018 13:01

I think she may have undiagnosed mental health issues.

She’s a lot like ol Brittany and Lindsay Lohan, with a lot of body dysmorphia thrown in.

I wonder if she isn’t bipolar?

Anyhow, her kids weren’t with her, she has one of those nights like Lamar and was used and abused by the blokes she was out with.

Of course the male press laps it up. Nothing like kicking a woman and then shitting on her when she’s down... makes them feel all kind of virtuous no doubt.

I think she needs help, not more judgement.
To me, she’s a lost girl, and needs help to find her path again.

GabsAlot · 09/09/2018 13:02

i agree summer

dont feel one bit of sympathy for her only the kids-if i hear shes a great mother from her fans once more i'll smash my laptop

riske · 09/09/2018 13:03

Katie Price is a millionaire.

She really isn't.

CountessVonBoobs · 09/09/2018 13:03

I'm not exactly Peter Andre's biggest fan, and he deserves to have his head examined for hooking up with her in the first place, but I can't exactly see what's "smug" about having a reasonably stable second relationship, parenting your kids and offering them the stability their mother can't.

slashlover · 09/09/2018 13:04

She'd already admitted to taking coke to deal with the split from her current husband.

She obviously has issues, she needs to spend time on her own instead of going from guy to guy. Counselling and a stint in rehab is needed or this could end in a very tragic way, look at Anna Nicole Smith or Amy Winehouse.

50Running50 · 09/09/2018 13:07

I feel for her....watching her mum battle a terminal illness whilst caring for Harvey too....that's tough

WhatAmISupposedToBeDoing · 09/09/2018 13:13

There were quite a few people slagging off Robbie Williams' 'parenting' on a thread just yesterday.

KP can't help but attention seek. Never could. Many moons ago she was on C4's Faking It, she was supposed to fake it as a stable girl and learn to be a showjumper in a week aand even though she was doing brilliantly as Stablehand Katie, it was less than 4 days (iirc) before she was piling on the makeup and throwing herself at any man who would look near her. Straight back to her Jordan side.

GabsAlot · 09/09/2018 13:13

she was like this before her mums diagnosis and harvey has a specilaist nanny

SummerGems · 09/09/2018 13:14

Why oh why whenever someone makes a spectacular mess of their life is it that we have to assume they have mental health issues? Why can’t people just be held responsible for themselves any more - there’s always someone or something else to blame?

KP’s life has been a disaster for as long as she’s been in the spotlight, nothing’s changed. She’s had what, five husbands? Five kids and all she has to show for it is the train wreck that is that hideous television show that depicts her car crash life...
