Original poster

to think that Katie Price should not blame the TV cameras for the breakup of her marriage to Peter Andre

I'm sick to death reading about this pathetic person who wants to blame the TV cameras for the breakdown of her marriage. Having watched some of her programmes she came across as a vile human being, cant see how a TV camera that you have invited along can make you a different person you are who you are, simple. AIBU.

Pete mentions KP because he is constantly asked about her interviews, not because he can't stop talking about her all day.

What do you base your "he is sinister" opinion on?

I base my opinion of KP on the following:

She threatened to "cut" a journalist whilst in Ibiza
She married Alex Reid, "managed" his career (i,e didn't let him do anything after winning CBB) then accused him of being fame hungry (pot, kettle).
After the press release that was a character assasination of Alex Reid, she now refuses to divorce him out of spite.
She met Leandro Penna, went home with him the same night and moved him into her house where her kids live within 2 weeks. After 8 months, he is gone forever, no more Uncle Leo.
She always looks either soulless or angry, but I think that's her sex face
She has been sued for libel twice.
It is my opinion that she lied about the miscarriage (see my post above)
She talks in an irritating monotone
She has admitted having FIVE nannies (i.e I don't sympathise on the Lone Parent thing)
There was a scene in PA and KP's reality show (when they were married) when she sat texting the whole time her kids played on the beach. She didn't even look up at them or speak to them.
She accused Jade Goody of "milking" her cancer and was subsequently banned from Jade's funeral.

My opinion of Pete: Bit cheesy, nice manners, music mediocre, dresses like a 15 year old in 1992.

Well can media has done the job they intended,

Well done carby!!!

YouOldSlag · 08/12/2011 23:36

Honestly, I sometimes think that if KP turned out to be a serial killer, her fans would still blame PA and Clare from CAN!

YouOldSlag · 08/12/2011 23:36

Clare from CAN does not control all British press you know!

MrsChristmasDB · 08/12/2011 23:40

I don't know enough about either of them to comment in such great detail, YOS !

I am just aware that you should always be careful, as you never know what really goes on behind closed doors.

I am sure that Katie can be a complete nasty cow, as we all can. But to paint Pete as the injured one is wrong. He is happy to be the monkey to Katie's organ grinder as and when it suits him, it appears. But yes, Elastic, I reckon he can be a right nasty bastard as and when he wants too.

YouOldSlag · 08/12/2011 23:49

I don't know enough about either of them to comment in such great detail, YOS ! and yet you have decided he can be a right nasty bastard.

By the way, you don't have to abbreviate my name, we're among friends, I don't mind being called You Old Slag! :-)

SouthStar · 08/12/2011 23:52

If I had her money...damn right id have a nanny, maybe even two as id feel sorry for just one person taking on my monsters. Yes id go out on the piss and id do it in style because the nannys could deal with the kids in the morning. Would I think ah screw it every so often and let the nanny sort the kids out and do the school run every so often...erm yes!

Imo the only thing she has done wrong is the bickering with her partners in public but she isnt the first woman to say something shitty about an ex because she is hurting or even get into another relationship on the rebound.

Love how those who are slating her know so much about her and her life.

I dont really have an opinion on her because i have better things to do with my spare time..... usually trying to become very rich to hire a shit load of nannys followed by an epic session and a day in bed while one of my many nannys does the school run!

specialagentmeh · 08/12/2011 23:55

Yabu to be interested enough to be fed up. Who cares!

MrsChristmasDB · 09/12/2011 00:00

YOU OLD SLAG

True, but I can also say that I think she is a silly bitch sometimes.

You know how you form an opinion of someone just by looking at them ? We shouldn't do it, and it's wrong, and he may be the loveliest guy in the world, but I don't know....there's just something about him that's not quite....right. It's the eyes, I think. And the not-quite-there smirk.

I don't think he is all the man he appears to be, that's all. At least with Katie you get to see all of her personalities, if you like. With him, it's a very carefully manufactured media image, imo.

Get0rf · 09/12/2011 00:00

I think the telling thing is that he still tarts their children around medialand, whilst she has kept them out the spotlight in recent times.

She is a daft bugger imo, but I don't think she is unlikeable. He, on the other hand...

He is a nasty passive aggressive weirdo.

You just can't trust a man without a philtrum.

Get0rf · 09/12/2011 00:01

Youoldslag is a brilliant name

It is impossible to say it without a Kat Slater accent.

MrsChristmasDB · 09/12/2011 00:05

Agree, GetOrf.

More like "Sccccchhhhllllaaaaaagggggggggg" when Kat does it though !

Get0rf · 09/12/2011 00:10

Schlaaaaaaaag is about right

MrsChristmasDB · 09/12/2011 00:14

My all-time favourite line of hers is still :

YES I AM !

Get0rf · 09/12/2011 00:15

I was just thinking about that scene today, actually.

'You're not my muvva'

YES I AM

MrsChristmasDB · 09/12/2011 00:16

Great minds, and all that.

I do love these emoticons. I might have to get a furry Santa Hat to wear myself, specially for mnetting !

TheMouseRanUpTheClock · 09/12/2011 00:24

I saw the orange one start things off and she fell for it looking the bad one before they split up! He was ribbing her about being thick and all sorts!

Peter also happily admits regularly to stuffing socks down his pants, wtf? He is still when he was in the jungle going on about the size of his knob, WTF?

He is still pimping out the kids!

He took a VERY long time to make space in his diary to interview appropriate nannies for Harvey who when he does have, quite often leaves him behind with a nanny when he takes the younger one's out, as Harvey not allowed in the show, or Peter's show is more important to him than Harvey's routine, so the show comes first and the poor kids miss out on fun activities together

I could go on.

Katie, is not everyone's cup of tea, I find her facinating, would I want her as a mate probably not, she would make a fun aquantance!

I think Katie would have Peter back in a heart beat and three months later would dump him!

The big thing Katie has on her side, soon after she finished with Can she stopped pimping out the kids. I noticed also that Kerry Katon is no longer pimping out her kids now that she is not with Can any more .

YouOldSlag · 09/12/2011 08:14

The big thing Katie has on her side, soon after she finished with Can she stopped pimping out the kids well, two years later, but OK.

YouOldSlag · 09/12/2011 08:21

Sorry, I really should be getting a life but I just have to say something about
He took a VERY long time to make space in his diary to interview appropriate nannies for Harvey who when he does have, quite often leaves him behind with a nanny when he takes the younger one's out

How do you KNOW Harvey is at home with a nanny? How do you know he is not off camera or that Pete wasn't allowed to have him that day? He tried to get a nanny for Harvey but she kept adding new conditions. This was around the time she libelled him for not seeing him enough. Looks a bit manipulative on her part?

Also, I love how everyone says Katie is all right because at least we KNOW she is a cow, but Pete is much worse because he SEEMS like a nasty bastard. No proof, all assumption.

If anyone wants to tell me I am FAR too interested in these sad shenanigans, then I agree! I don't know what's wrong with me! Arrgh! But you can say at least I know my stiff, sad tragic case that I am.... and I'm an old slag. (sigh)

TheMouseRanUpTheClock · 09/12/2011 08:42

I didn't see many of Pete's shows, and when I did watch them, he was telling the camera, he left Harvey behind with his nanny, when they went on family days out because of his routine. Well anyone else would put the day out around the routine, it looked like filming was more imporant to him to me.

If you are going to quote me, please do so properly, with ... where you have missed parts of the quote out! so as not to confuse or mislead others later.

Hwo do you know there were new conditions being put on Pete regarding a Nanny, a specialised one was required, and it took him about six months to organise a Nanny, I never heard him and Katie when living together taking so long to get a Nanny

YouOldSlag · 09/12/2011 08:50

No, I'm happy that I only quoted the bit I was referring to.

I was responding to a) the time he took to find a nanny and b) the fact you said he quite often leaves him with a nanny.

Therefore, those are the only two points I requoted. It's normal procedure in a debate not to re-post the other person's entire argument.

TheMouseRanUpTheClock · 09/12/2011 08:54

No, I am happy I was referring to the fact he looks manipulative and is like a nasty bastard

That is you quoted by your own rules!

YouOldSlag · 09/12/2011 09:10

Disagree. How would you like to have been quoted? As far as I can see, I quoted a whole sentence without gaps or pauses. I didn't need to quote anything else as it was not relevant to the two points I was arguing about. Your post is there for all to see if anyone wanted to refer back to it. No need for me to do it for them.

YouOldSlag · 09/12/2011 09:12

Did you want "..." at the end to indicate I had not quoted your cross through bit?

TheMouseRanUpTheClock · 09/12/2011 09:36

"..." is good! thanks. I also know far too much about these people's lives
