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 ?

There was a repeat last night on c5 of a documentary about this .

As of 2024 she owed £3.6m and has been made bankrupt twice. Mainly due to unpaid legal bills mounting up from her custody battles with Peter André and also alimony payments to cross dressing cage fighter Alex Reid

Weird how someone who has apparently been made bankrupt more than once seems to nevertheless be able to live in a nice house, drive expensive cars and spend lots of their time on holiday abroad.

I've got a pretty good job and have never been made bankrupt but my lifestyle is noticeably less profligate than hers.

Why do you feel the need to post endless GIFs?

Why not? It feels wrong when she doesn't post a giff.

Everything she does is a publicity stunt - it's how she makes money.

I also don't think she is very well at the moment.

I think this too. I have a feeling half of her relationships aren’t real. It’s a thing she gets in to when she’s low on cash and needs the press deals.

Who gives two fucks.

There is a mum local to you struggling. Give her attention.

And KP needs to pay the tax man

Why do you feel the need to follow me from post to post?

Ooh you've got your very own MN stalker! 😂.

And as for the subject in hand, I do feel some degree of sympathy for KP as she has always stuck me as an incredibly insecure person. But I have far more sympathy for her poor children, particularly the littlest two.

TBH - I think that these days her relationships are "faux-mance" contracts to give both mutual publicity and keep them both on the celebrity pages of the tabloids as a source of income.

BillyBites · 25/01/2026 00:19

She was ordered to pay Alex Reid a substantial amount of money for revenge porn but to date has never paid up. She is on film telling Princess how she wasn’t paying school fees for her and junior (leaving Peter to pay the whole lot). She has been hiding income for years but appears to live a very ostentatious lifestyle. However, she lost her house and is now destined to have to find rentals forever more as she is very unlikely to ever get a mortgage again with her appalling financial record.
Also note that all the freebie holidays seem to have dried up and she has been effectively cancelled from TV appearances. ITV won’t have her on any of their shows at all.

Princess has next to no gcses, waste of money.

You don't think Victoria Beckham attracted misogyny?

I never said that, and yes of course she has

😂😂😅 I know!

agree, its hard to feel any more for her, she’s definitely ill but there’s more babies involved now, plus her older kids 😪

Didn't Junior also leave school without being burdened by any decent grades to become a pop star, released one single, got mocked for singing with a fake accent and hadn't been heard of since.

I don't have any sympathy for her at all, she'll likely be dead before she reaches 60 or even 50.

No I think that's made up but I wouldn't know lol

But seriously if you can't pass all your gcses at private school what the hell

I do think that, with the way she’s going, we aren’t far off from getting a bbc news notification with her name on it 🥺

The “fiancé “ is AI! Just one look at his Instagram and Facebook confirm that.

I'm pretty sure Junior passed 9 GCSEs but don't know which grades

However even if you go to a top school it won't help if a child isn't academic - even Eton was reduced to cheating by getting teachers to do the coursework to get Prince Harry a D in Art so that he fulfilled the minimum 2 A levels needed for Sandhurst.

BillyBites · 25/01/2026 00:42

And let’s face it, if genes count for anything, Katie is barely even literate and Peter Andre isn’t exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer. Mind you, he has at least managed to keep up a reasonably decent career which clearly pays well so brains aren’t everything.

Come on, exams aren't that hard and they can get tutors

What's his career?

Also my parents have got no gcses but I have a master's degree

Theworldisfloating · 25/01/2026 00:50

How do you tell it’s AI?
At least she is too old to get pregnant now. Unless is a miracle.
If she was a regular person the children would be on SW radar. I feel sad for her children.

nam3c4ang3 · 25/01/2026 00:51

He wants to be famous i guess? Isn’t that the MO of everyone she dates… except Peter Andre I guess. And no. She’s not as famous as Britney ffs 🤣

I'd go with 50,she literally looks like a walking corpse.
