I think that Peter Andre treated Katie badly and now it seems like the kids have turned on her?

Shes not allowed to be on Princess' show apparently

Agree- mildly attractive at best. Her nose job was good- she should have stopped there.Junior and Princess resemble their father, especially the eyes.

I remember thinking she was a really stunning girl way back when she was dating one of the gladiators at the time, which was how I got to first know of her as I occasionally watched the program.

But I think notions of pretty have changed to a degree.

Princess resembles her to an extent but is more like her grandmother, and I think prettier than her mother was

But yes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, which is a great thing!

Words fail me.

No problem, I doubt they would interest me anyway

I think Katie looks beautiful here and her daughter looks very much like her.
Obviously, they de-glammed her, but the irony was she looked far more gorgeous than she did as Jordan.

I'm glad princess kept her curls

KPs natural hair used to be stunning (might have been a perm but was a good one if so, and as her mum and princess have great curls I assume natural)

Photoshop is a marvellous thing. She would never have looked anything like that at the shoot. Same as most covers.

murasaki · 11/08/2025 16:05

Either way, her looks are unimportant, it's her parenting that is up for discussion.

Just because he introduced them doesn't mean he was expecting him to DATE her!

I've arranged for my young adult DDs to meet with friends of friends for things like career advice, work experience & training for sports/ hobbies, not once was that an indication of my approval for them to try n fuck my kid!

It's not that odd a thing to do. We probably all do it in smaller ways (we might not have celeb friends that our kids want to meet, but we all pull favours for things like apprenticeships, summer jobs etc)

I have friends with kids who are well into adulthood, but kids of friends are still and always kids of friends, it doesn't matter if they turn legal! I have even put them up favours e.g. one was considering my local uni for clearing, another had a summer job nearer to me than home and stayed over if he had a late shift followed by an early shift.

Zero of these arrangements or meetings were the parents setting us up!

And I really don't think there's a whole lot of difference between that, and a celeb meet n greet if the kid is into a celeb you know

It's so weird that people take the fact that the dad introduced them, as him giving it a wink and a nod

Exactly
Not only was he a middle aged man, but he had three kids ( including Harvey) with Katie Price .
It is not only the age gap or the fact that she was at university it is the fact that he had known her when she was probably in her early teens .
Sorry, but I find this creepy

This is a very good point. He defines his parenting and personality in terms of hers, so it doesn't need to be great, just better than hers which is a low bar. He doesn't actually do anything great, does monetise the kids, albeit less, and comes over as a bit of a shit. But in his mind as long as he seems better than her, he's doing well.

I agree

Katie price has never had cheekbones that look like that.

I maintain she was pleasant looking.

The wide set eyes of Princess are definitely like her Dad’s!

How many times...

he did not pursue her. she pursued him via her father.

He was an attractive man , her a plain but pleasant looking lady with a tall slim body and beautiful long hair. They liked each other end dated. Fast forward 3 kids and marriage.

She was in her early 20s. She was a doctor FFS, not a vulnerable girl of 16 with a reduced capacity to make decisions.

You're making out like he groomed her !!! Honestly, it's ridiculous.

She was. Until the surgery. She was very pretty back in the day, and the best she ever looked after that was in the jungle with limited make up, where she looked fab.

But she's still a dreadful parent, driver pet owner and is economical with the truth.

She wasn't a doctor. She was still in FTE. A recent school leaver.

SquishedMallow · 11/08/2025 16:16

I know it's a cheap shot and her looks aren't the point of this thread, but I genuinely don't see "pretty" or "beautiful" when I look at her old pictures. She's certainly not unattractive , but not "stunning" by any stretch. I think she looks a bit 'rat' like as horrible as it sounds.

LuckysDadsHat · 11/08/2025 16:17

No one should get into bed naked with their son in his 20s.

"Creep" doesn't mean paedophile. Paedophillia isn't just men being a bit creepy FFS

Creepy behaviour can be legally permitted behaviour that is just a bit ugly and unpleasant!

She "persued" him in so much as any young fan wants to meet an idol of theirs. It's creepy for a middle age man to take a young fans adoration as an invite

She was a doctor : a middle class wealthy individual from a wealthy family ! She could and would have earned more than enough money off her own back.

You cannot possibly compare that to 16yr old 'Stacey' from Wigan unbuttoning her top and hoping to 'get off' with Justin Bieber. (Theoretical).

Nothing about a 20odd your old qualified middle class professional with presumably low levels of vulnerability in comparison, asking her father to introduce her to Peter Andre is in any way equalling : Peter Andre is creepy. Ridiculous.

She was absolutely not a doctor. She was an undergrad student, and only just.

She was a twenty year old medical student .
It is a moot point as to whether she pursued him or not.
We don’t know the truth, just the PR version put out by Peter Andre and his management

She enjoys the suggestion of those photos. She thinks men are thinking "my god he's lucky to be laying next to her". But men aren't even looking at those pics, it's women. And furthermore men have long moved on from finding 90s/00s has been KP "hot".

You're rather splitting hairs.

A medical student has 6 years of training post a levels. A further 2 I believe if GP training (she's a GP) so using provocative words like "student" (which brings to mind a teen) is very manipulative. A medical student can be a student up to a very much older age.

I think the men are not the same men as then. it's different kind of men

There are men who pay more for unwell looking prostitutes than healthy ones...
... Theres unfortunately a market for Trainwreck porn with hints of..... Other things ...

murasaki · 11/08/2025 16:33

Yep, I'm pretty sure if I asked DP and my male friends, they'd admit to saying she was hot, but that nowadays she looks like something out of the Dark Crystal. And we are the same age as she is.

And nowadays there is a relentless conveyor belt of Love islanders 20 odd years younger than her.

She needs therapy to see that those days are gone, but nothing seems to stick. Its actually very sad and I do feel sorry for her.
