Katie price - what’s going on ?

569 replies

error404notfound · 24/01/2026 21:59

Following Katie Price’s engagement posts. She’s just split from JJ slater - now she’s engaged to some Dubai businessmen. At first I thought the posts were AI , but upon further inspection ( see : time wasting ) he is a real person with a Facebook account that has been active for some time, as is his mothers it seems - so he is real.

But , surely this is some kind of publicity stunt ? I have always liked her but it just seems a bit ridiculous at 47 years of age if it is ?

It's very easy to add tattoos with AI. In fact all of it can easily be created with AI. She's probably licenced his face temporarily 😆

@SixSevens - agreed! He is not in to her at all! It’s a publicity stunt surely
They only met in person last week and have apparently had matching tattoos, got engaged and married in that time 🤣
As I said in my previous post, she is clearly unwell but also an extremely selfish person.
Her poor kids having to see all this

Yes and in-between all that she's managed to get all her documents together (divorce/birth certificates) and translated into Arabic, a pre marriage medical done, get to the British Embassy with it all, get them to let her get married super quick to a man she's only known 5 minutes.

She must think people are as dumb as she is.

MrsLizzieDarcy · 25/01/2026 20:03

Well she's got herself a good few headlines this weekend. Job done.

Never mind the impact on all the kids.

lovemetomybones · 25/01/2026 20:16

I think currently she should be focusing on her youngest two. Their whole family is being unstabilised. I think for once she needs to let her relationships take a backseat and mother her children.

Agreed. She reminds me of Britney.

She’s had multiple opportunities to change her ways though, to make the change for her children and instead she‘s continued to have men coming in and out of her life
Not to mention the pets 🙄
She has chosen not to get help

lovemetomybones · 25/01/2026 20:17

I also think the strict rules in Dubai could mean she could end up behind bars with some of her antics- it’s definitely not the place for her!

Can I defend Britney here. Britney was incredibly professional and worked hard on her career. Became mentally ill at some point and then was controlled totally while still working incredibly hard. Doesn't sound much like the life of Katie Price

I feel bad for all her children, I saw a documentary about Harvey and she insinuated she was all he'd ever known and that he depended on her.....and yet she's off to Turkey every 20 minutes for the next lot of cosmetic surgery. (I think its totally unethical that surgeons agree to operate on someone who clearly has psychological issues)

He clearly has respite care, or other carers because she is often on holiday/getting procedures (that require recovery time) . Im absolutely not saying parents of children with disabilities shouldnt have time away or use respite care, but reality is she does go away a lot more than the average non bankrupt person

The youngest 2 have probably come out the worst, I fear they will need a lot of therapy to deal with the childhood they've had so far.

Harvey doesn't live with her - hasn't for 4 or 5 years. He was at a full year residential school and has now transitioned into a residential placement in adult social care. When at the school he used to come home for short periods with his carers.

It was a myth that she liked to feed to the tabloids that she did everything for Harvey but she always had nannies and her mother did a lot before she became ill.

The sad thing is that you could apply that to her life at any point over the last 15 years or so (I don't remember when she and PA spilt). It's been a constant production line of different men being put above her children. The only difference this time is that there's no documentary and OK magazine obviously doesn't feel she's worth getting their chequebook out for anymore.

They’ve got married? She’s nuts.

No, he's the one who's nuts - she's the one who is calculating and in control...

AmplePlayer · 25/01/2026 23:33

The Sun has an article saying that he did the exact same proposal four months ago to someone else and got her to invest in one of his companies, seems like this is just a PR stunt and Katie gets some money from back grid a week before the tax bill is due. Not great for her kids though.

BlueEyedBogWitch · 26/01/2026 08:12

She’s starting to resemble Tollund Man.

What a state to get in just to keep yourself in the headlines.

Once, maybe. Not any more, I don't think. She seems very fragile. I'm not saying that to excuse her nonsense, but I genuinely think she is unwell.

Agreed. Britney has been (and I think still is) very unwell, and was treated abysmally by her family. Also, she has two children by one man. Most of Katie's problems are of her own making.

I agree. There's something very childlike about Britney now, she definitely doesn't remind me of Katy Price.

YourAmplePlumPoster · 26/01/2026 11:55

I can't see her as any worse than Madonna whose various arm rests are men not much older than her kids. The latest one is 29. Plus all her surgical interventions which make her look weird.

How many animals has Madonna killed through neglect? I’ve also never seen Madonna exploit her disabled child for laughs/cash. Or crash her car while under the influence of drugs. Or have 4 of her 5 children removed from her care. Having younger partners is the absolute least of the issues with Katie Price.

That’s absolutely ludicrous and a massive insult to Madonna.

Veryerysad · 26/01/2026 14:57

Beats me how she's still got 2M Instagram followers. Interest in her is falling. The papers reported her marriage but that's all really. Old news.

Nobody said anything about the age of Katie's partners. That's the least of her worries. I would say that the bankruptcies, the fact that her children keep being taken from her, the many animals who have died under her 'care', and the multiple driving offenses are what put people off her. I'm not the biggest fan of Madonna, but she has her shit together. Katie doesn't.

I feel awful for the youngest two. What a start to life.
