Katie Price and the rift with her kids?

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

Probably the same things Jett and Bunny did : drugs,chaos, failure to prioritise parenting, sex in front of them... I expect a lot of it though was general neglect.

It is alleged these KP had sex whilst young Jett and Bunny were in the same room and showed them her vagina/vulva afterwards.

There's also unpredictable behaviour from Harvey.

Even in one of the recent programmes with him in a residential home, they had an aside, just from him staying overnight at her home, where he'd managed to wrench an oak panelled door off both its hinges. They swiftly moved on

It’s horrendous
Was she always like this? What happened

Thechickenisburning · 15/08/2025 17:20

Princess said on her show that Kp was in Dubai, so she wouldn’t be at the party. Why is she always there

He’s put his fist through walls, and smashed windows in his violent rages. He’s unpredictable one minute, having massive tantrums the next. No wonder they’re scared of him.

I note a press item on how Peter André saved one of his children from being TRAPPED in a TOILET that is being spun to burnish his Nice Guy (TM) Credentials.

https://www.standard.co.uk/showbiz/peter-andre-hero-son-locked-toilet-cyprus-b1243035.html

I remember the good ol' days when positive pointless PR revolved around "Holly Willoughby wears nice dress"

Like he's the only father in the world that would do that....

No one mentioned Dwight York yet then? If KP is such a dreadful mother what is he?

He did try to see Harvey, but she made it impossible because he wouldn’t be with her. He gave up and walked away - which is shit considering he had enough funds to have forced access to through court if he really wanted to step up.

He has paid a decent chunk of maintenance for Harvey over the years though and made sure it went to her mum as she clearly couldn’t be trusted to not spunk it on holidays and surgery for herself. I hope Amy actually made sure it was spent on Harvey.

I don’t really have a negative opinion about Dwight if he did choose to not be involved. If she’d decided to abort, he wouldn’t have had a say and I don’t think men should be forced to be a parent just on the say so of a woman who they’ve shagged a few times. It certainly doesn’t justify them using a kid to exert control and force the man into a relationship. It’s not an equal decision so I find it hard to judge men too harshly in those situations. He contributed financially, which I think is an acceptable amount of responsibility.

I don’t believe she was raped at 7 - she’s said in interviews that she was flashed. I have been raped and the victim of CSA - people do lie about these things. KP says whatever furthers her agenda at the time.

She wasn’t allowed custody of the kids - so is it any wonder she’s not welcome at her 18th. She also has problems with addiction and alcohol, not an ideal party guest.

I watched an episode of the Princess Diaries. I’m not a huge fan of the content, but think Princess comes across really well. She sounds balanced and sensible. PA might be no angel but he had held down a marriage, supported and brought his kids up which is more than can be said for KP. Clearly KP is not good for Princess’ brand - she is a liability. Given Princess doesn’t live with her and the filming started before she was 18 it’s highly unlikely she’d have had any reason to include KP in filming. It’s clear she isn’t a part of the furniture of Princess’ life.

That’s quite an allegation to make if you don’t have any proof.

Wow.

You do know that men can use condoms if they don’t want to be fathers.

Or if it’s too much effort to wear a condom a stain from shagging women that they don’t want anything to do with.

He could have yes. We don’t know that he didn’t.

She could have lied and said she was on the pill or stuck holes in condoms. She is scheming enough and was desperate to get a commitment from him.

Equally, they could have been completely reckless, but no-one knows so can’t judge him for not being there.

Ultimately, there is an unfair balance in the decision making when casual relationships result in pregnancy and I don’t agree that a man can’t have a choice when a woman does.

You’re really clutching at straws now. Putting holes in condoms?

I think you e been watching too much TV.

If a man doesn’t want to have a child then he should use a condom, and he could always provide these himself to make sure that all the crazy women don’t put holes in them.

If you’re man enough to make a child then you should be man enough to be a part of its life.

I didn’t say that was what had actually happened.

I think we’ll have to agree to disagree.

Well don't blame me FFS - blame the internet sources. I'm not an accuracy verifying. Although what I will say is : the poor kids weren't taken out of her care lightly. It's difficult enough to pull on Joe public, I'm sure being "important" (celebrity/rich) offers a bias in their favour. And for it to have got to this : well, I'm inclined to believe what I've read to be honest.

Look, if I link I can predict the responses "oooh because that's such a reliable source " etc etc and it'll derail the thread. I've made very clear it is an allegation not a fact. It should be Google- able

OneSharpFinch · 15/08/2025 22:45

The youngest were taken out of her care by social services due to safeguarding and from Pete's post it seems like a safeguarding issue as well as to why the elder two went to live with him full time although SS has never been mentioned in relation to the older two. Yet she was talking in her latest podcast about what a good mum she is - it does seem that her MH issues go beyond ADHD, maybe they are that severe that she is / was genuinely incapable of parenting, but from what P said in her show Katie is in a better place now, hopefully that means she can still have a relationship with her younger kids.

HotDogKetchup · 16/08/2025 05:57

I also wondered about the Doctor who was trying to help her with IVF, a bit like all the cosmetic surgeons - how is that ethical to try and get a woman who’s children have been removed from her care pregnant?

Her lifestyle just isn’t consistent with parenting.

There’s always a comment “she’s a good mum though” on any post on Facebook etc about her and I just cannot understand how anyone can have that view when her children have been removed.

Someone I have huge respect for is Emily, being a step Mum is a hard role and she has taken those kids FT and clearly has a good relationship, that’s so admirable IMO, she has never commented publicly.

Didn’t she also win a lot of parent of the year awards back in the day?

I wish they would properly cancel her and get her off all media. She won’t shut up, giving interviews and doing her awful podcast. She mentions she just wants to be in the background while Junior and Princess do their thing but they are grown up now. A good mum would leave them to the enjoy their opportunities. She reckons she has missed out on so much. Unfortunately, that is what happens when you get caught up with drugs.

And she continues the public goading of Andre creating the narrative that he is abusive (which a lot of people on this thread seem to have swallowed) when we all saw with our own eyes what she did to him. Her “team” put out edited clips of their show which make it look as though he is the abusive one. I am one of the first to call out toxic masculinity but I hate injustice.

As for the press: they all knew about the court order that placed Junior and Princess in Andre’s care and kept quiet about it.

HotDogKetchup · 16/08/2025 06:41

She mentions she just wants to be in the background

Exactly and if that’s the case have a quiet word. It’s just another drama to keep her relevant. She’s forcing the kids into her chaotic orbit and it’s not fair.

Like he's the only father in the world that would do that....

i don’t see this as him saying he is father of the year. It is just a “funny” anecdote written for his fans, saying he ended up looking silly because he got stuck too. Hardly making g himself a hero - more like the embarrassing dad. just like any dad would post. You and I may not be interested but Andre has thousands of fans who follow him and want to hear this stuff.
