Katie Price and the rift with her kids?

youreactinglikeafunmum · 10/08/2025 15:26

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, he was awful. Critical, demeaning and gaslighting. Contributed to her issues im sure

I saw a video of an example of him “gaslighting” her. She said she was looking forward to hanging out with a load of “fitties” who all fancied her and he pointed out she was a mum of three and that they wouldn’t be interested. I mean seriously shall we ignore her behaviour to provoke him? Because if my DP was bragging about him pulling some hotties I’d quickly cut him down to size and rightly so.

I wouldn't be surprised if Katie has untreated bipolar disorder along with CPTSD
Have a family member with both & it's a horrible horrible illness/disease if left untreated/unmedicated

I've thought this since Katie & Pete appeared on IACGMOOH.
I also think Jordan was the persona Katie used to cope with life, however now she's become Jordan on acid.

None of this excuses her behaviour but it does explain it.
Of course I may be totally wrong.

I don't know if this critique is fair. Not having a go, I just don't know how realistic it is. You have people in care who eat through the entire equity of their home in a few years. I doubt Katie was making so much money she could have afforded elite care for Harvey for life as well as provision for the rest of her kids.

The question is, how much money has Katie made in her career? A few million, tens of millions, hundreds?

I don't know actually how old Harvey is, or how long he will live with his disabilities but even a million or so would eventually be eaten through with high level private care with a normalish lifespan, unless she had invested incredibly well.

State funded social care should be available for all, no one should have to work all their lives and use all the assets they could have left their children to pay for it. It ought to be better, just like nursery provision should be better.

But I could be very wrong regarding KP and H it's a valid question.

Well I have 2 children with complex needs and yes we should be entitled to support from the state but the reality is that more and more parents
Like us are buying more and more of their own equipment and services. That is a lot easier if you have a few millions in the bank.
People really don't understand how long it takes and what a fight it is to get
even the basics now . Kp had enough money over the years to set Harvey up ( she was estimated to be worth 50 million at her zenith)and she has pretty much wasted the lot of useless men and wild living.

They dated publicly since she was 22.. you really think their public coming out as a couple was their first date?
They met when she was 20n

Yeh, and ?

x2boys · 11/08/2025 19:36

So according to Google they met when she was 20 in 2010,and started dating two years later when she was 22 ,so not somone just out of school as some posters are trying to suggest and he was 16 years older than her so would have been 38 to her 22 .

Edited

I'm glad you replied.

I couldn't even bring myself to reply when that poster said "you seem very defensive" .. really ? On the wind up I suspect.

MellersSmellers · 11/08/2025 20:57

Yawn!
Katie Price must need to top up her bank balance.
Sorry Katie, but I really couldn't care less

GiveDogBone · 11/08/2025 21:10

The only person responsible for all of Katie Price’s issues is Katie Price herself. Her defenders would always harp on about what a brilliant mum she was - as if that excuses the rest of her behaviour - but now her children are adults, the truth is coming out.

And of course the MN man-haters are blaming Peter Andre for everything. Funnily enough if he was the one hopping into bed with one partner after another in front of his poor children, they wouldn’t be blaming his ex-wife.

You maybe need to watch a bit more of it. Some of it was awful

Watching now on Itv2, PA has aged.
Princess just been bought a brand new Audi car and didn’t say thank you 🙈

Pa cooking and sort of showing off about that.

Him and the Dr seem an odd pairing

Katie has been the victim of abuse at the hands of men all her life. I am far from a ‘man hater’ and nor do I particularly like Katie Price, but I can see her low self
esteem, which results in her constant need to
undertake cosmetic surgery and seek attention from men, is clearly a result of the trauma she has experienced in the past. It’s a shame people are so judgemental and can’t look more closely at the reasons why Katie behaves as she does.

Did she not buy it herself and I wasn't new? I saw a video online when she got it and she was saying she was fed up people assuming it had been a gift when shed bought it with her own money & it wasn't brand new

Katie price has never had cheekbones that look like that.

I maintain she was pleasant looking.

Stop giving your opinion as if it's fact. It's not. You think she's pleasant looking other people disagree.

Thechickenisburning · 11/08/2025 22:01

Junior is lovely, I feel sorry for them both, can imagine they’ve been through a lot
I hope Princess doesn’t get ruined by the industry 😔

I think she hasn’t been a great mum and the kids where bound to turn on her . I honestly pity her kids because they are all bound to suffer from her behaviour and neglect . And it’s not like she even admits it , she still behaves awful and has no consideration on the impact it has on them .

She's a drug addict and has an addiction to surgery. She doesn't have custody of any of her children, Harvey has been shunted off to live with 24/7 carers and she can't even keep her pets alive. She's a disgrace of a human being and a mother. Peter Andre is a decent man who has had a much more successful second marriage with a well educated and intelligent woman. My money is on KP being the issue here....

I thought it was disgusting how she filmed herself telling him off and saying he would be 'sent back' to his accommodation because he was 'naughty and broke the TV' poor lad didn't seem to know what was going on.

Yawn. Give over. You've drank the publicly prescribed trope she was bargaining on the public taking. Well done, hook like and sinker. Some people are so gullible.

Catladywithoutacat · 12/08/2025 06:31

I obviously wasn’t in their house but from rumours and my best friend who experienced similar things, princess may have seen her mum drunk/on it to many times and maybe didn’t want her stealing the lime light. Peter does seem more grounded.
princess obviously only got a show because of her parents but I personally I wouldn’t want my mum who can be “funny” potentially ruining it for me.
Emily is probably the best thing to happen in peters life and his kids

Set in the context of someone who was constantly goading him and suggesting that she had cheated on him or would do so, no I don’t think it was as awful as you say. I doubt he speaks to Emily like that. She is a car wreck.

Jesus if that’s what she said he was quite right !

XWKD · 12/08/2025 07:37

I feel dirty knowing who these people are.

MarieAndTwinette · 12/08/2025 07:37

She was 20 when they started dating? I am just letting that sink in. I have family members that age and I would hate it if they were dating a 36 year old. You want them to date within their age group and grow up together. What was her father thinking by encouraging the relationship? But Pete is famous and I have seen how people fawn over the famous when they meet them irl. And PA is probably very personable and a nice guy. I think I would be more concerned if a young friend was dating KP because of her drug use. There is a similar age difference between KP and her boyfriend by the way.

landlordhell · 12/08/2025 06:45

She did. She hinted that he wasn’t man enough. They are just different kinds of people. Some men might think it would be “fun” to date a glamour model but the reality is probably very different to the fantasy.

I totally agree it’s absolutely criminal that KP has failed to provide for a child who will never live independently. And I firmly believe reports that she’s made millions
