I think Katie Price might be next in the docks.
She seems hell bent on ruining her exes lives.

I read this too. It was reported that she went straight from court to Dubai.

In Kieran’s case, even the prosecution told the jury to disregard 90% of her evidence according to reports.

@AgeingMillennial and a litany of dead pets.
No one is that unlucky she's incapable of behaving like a normal human being.

He honestly sounds like a complete pig but being a serial womaniser/cheat and being a child abuser/rapist/paedophile are obviously very different things.

Are we allowed to put links here? The kieranhayler dot com website has a lot of information about his behaviour.

Not speaking Re the accused here... But generally....

ANY rape /sexual abuse allegation is NOT necessarily a false allegation, just because a court hasn't found them guilty. It means legally they're not guilty, but it also means that the jury was unable to convict 'beyond reasonable doubt' .

As many other people have said on other threads, most of the time there are zero witnesses to sexual assault. It's very much a case of one person saying, "He did this," and another person saying, "I didn't."

There's rarely any evidence unless it's immediately post hoc and there's medical evidence. Any bruising /dna the defence will says that this woman liked to have rough sex..... It's a well worn track....

My DD had a relationship with someone who presents very much like KP and whom also has a history of ruination and wreckage behind her.
2 years on and DD is not who she used to be.

@Footielife Do you have a link? Not goady, I’d be genuinely interested to read it. Everything I can find reported says that they are not.

The children are with his family afaik or could be in care.
I don’t trust KP at all. She is vindictive and spiteful at the expense of her DC.
Princess spoke out about dealing with her mother in a suicidal state when she broke up with Kieran. She’d hardly be mourning the relationship knowing he raped a minor.
Princess was so young, terrified her mother would give up.
She is a train wreck.

Has anyone else seen that website about him? It's his name.com and set-up by someone who had a relationship with him post Kate and Michelle.

Regardless of what people think of Kate Price and her ex husband - can people please not post speculation and rumours about two young kids and their living situation?

It's a massive invasion of their privacy, to which they are entitled regardless of their parents' behaviour, and it's really not fair on them.

Silverbirchleaf · 22/10/2026 14:27

So he was accused of raping a teenager. What happens to the alleged victim now? Will she be prosecuted for perjury?

No thats not how the justice system works here. You cannot prosecute a victim solely on the basis an alleged perpetrator wasn't found guilty.

Rape is a notoriously hard crime to prove in court, particularly historical abuse. Just because there was an absence of sufficient evidence to prove rape beyond a reasonable doubt does not automatically mean the victim is lying.

I've no idea what has happened here but as a general rule, it would be very damaging to the already extremely low protection rates for rape to start prosecuting victims. Terrible idea. There would have to be significant evidence to prosecute, not only a "not guilty" verdict.

Alleged information about his behaviour. Not saying the vengeful ex isn’t telling the truth, but not everything we read on t’internet is unbiased fact.

He’s no angel, for sure… but Katie has repeatedly set about badmouthing every single one of her exes and trying to ruin their lives. Common denominator and all that. She’s an extremely toxic woman and it’s her kids who continue to suffer.

BillieWiper · 22/10/2026 15:23

She nearly derailed the whole trial and the jury had to be excused because she was a 'dangerous witness' constantly saying prejudicial irrelevant unprovable things against him.
It's disgraceful she seemingly encouraged and groomed the girl to try and get him prosecuted.

Yep exactly. Im pretty appalled at some of the comments aimed at the alleged victim, who is young now and was a child when all of this came to light.

Just because you don't like Katie Price doesn't mean the victim is a liar, or that she deserves to be publicly castigated or bullied. Very weird.

Arabelllllllla · 22/10/2026 15:27

Thefrocklady · 22/10/2026 14:31

I think she was a very vulnerable teenager who unfortunately got dragged into this horrible mess. I have no idea what she said in court , but I only hope she gets over this horrendous ordeal.

Agree. And calling for her prosecution is beyond the pale.

Either he did abuse her, or she has been coerced by Katie. Either way she was a child and has been used and abused by adults. Horrendous.

I agree. There must have been enough evidence or suspicion to warrant a trial to begin with.
That is a high standard as it rarely happens.
The jury didn’t feel it met the bar although the department of prosecution thought there was enough for a case.
Unfortunately when the witness is known as a self serving unstable troubled woman it makes getting a conviction tough.
The saddest part is three children are left with longterm damage including the victim in the case.

From the reporting and the texts she sent, the implication is she set him up and promised the young girl fame & fortune…

Awful to set him up like this but tbh, the messages that he admitted to sending to the underage girl are pretty vile too.

MerryAquaKoala · 22/10/2026 15:36

Not guilty isn't the same as Innocent. Guess we'll never know.

meercat23 · 22/10/2026 15:37

Whatever the truth is about what he did or did not do it seems clear from the press coverage that Price all but sabotaged the trial with her behaviour in court.

WitsEndFFS · 22/10/2026 15:37

No man in a relationship with Katie Price is an innocent victim. They will be people with their own demons and issues. Not someone to get involved with safely.

The joint two DCs of he and Katie actually live with Katie full time. Apparently she can’t share pictures or other info of them on social media as a condition of her having custody.

Exactly this. Either he is a victim of KPs behaviour, or the girl is a victim of his cimimal behaviour, but KP due to her behaviour made it impossible to deliver a safe verdict.

Her car crash life is deeply scary tbh. The trail of destruction, broken families, broken people and dead pets she leaves behind her is terrifying.

SpinandSing · 22/10/2026 15:48

The whole story hasn't been told though has it? So, he hasn't been found guilty of rape but why did he have a close relationship with this 13 year old? There doesn't seem to be any information about how they were known to each other - she wasn't an extended family member. Was she a member at his gym and he was her personal trainer?

The case was brought for a reason and it wasn't just because of Katie Price. That's not how it works. Unfortunately, Katie Price as a witness and ex-wife of the defendant made the whole trial into a circus and the reporting on it is poor standard and useless.

The poor girl and her family. What an awful thing to have been drawn into.

BeardySchnauzer · 22/10/2026 15:50

I guess they can’t say how he knew her because it could make her identifiable

2 years on and DD is not who she used to be.

My partners ex exhibits extremely similar behaviour to KP, too. We’ve had it all: the harassment, lies, false allegations, unfounded police and social services reports. We now have full custody of their joint children (court ordered).

People don’t believe these sorts of people exist, I didn’t until I experienced what I have for the past 5 years. I can absolutely believe that these allegations came about as part of a campaign of abuse from KP.

It did occur to me that if he had committed the crime in question, that perhaps KP and her behaviour has derailed the trial significantly enough to mean a conviction was very unlikely. I certainly wouldn't want her on my side in a trial of this nature!

As you say, to even be charged for SA there has to be pretty significant evidence, let alone it going to trial.

Poor girl, and yes the kids too. Just an all round sh*tty situation.
