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

I tried to find out if Princess is on OF and it seems like she isn’t. KP seems to have said that Princess is supportive of her mum’s OF career.

Is Junior also likely to be an influencer or is he too young to tell?

I watched a clip of both Junior and Princess on This Morning the other day. He wants to make it in music. It’s on YouTube.

Did you just downplay sexual assault because you dislike the victim?

No i didnt downplay an assault i was speaking specifically about being raped. She has told so many lies about this and the story has changed dramatically over the years, mainly when the attention she craves is waning and she wants more attention on her.

All of the other people who were actually there have come out and said a rape did not happen.

Even Princess has said they touched her mum up

Sexually assaulted.

At the end of the day if she is an addict ss would have stopped her children living with her. Controlling men often have relationships with much younger women which Andre now has. But his children seem to have grown up into decent people. It’s sad to see how much work kp has had done her face and body. Also how many men seem to have taken advantage of her money and there is often talk of having more children with each one.

You do realise that the 4 youngest have all been removed by social services and custody given to the fathers or other paternal family members right? She is only allowed supervised access to the youngest 2.

You downplayed a woman being sexually assaulted because you dislike her.

Any behaviour she may or may not have exhibited doesn't excuse your disgusting behaviour.

His behaviour towards her on their reality show was alarming to say the least. Angry, aggressive, downright nasty and controlling behaviour. Very concerning that so many on here cannot see it!
Im not saying Katie is a perfect parent but Andre is vile.

Posts on the "CF celebrity" thread suggest she is nicer than him in real life!

Not that I know, or particularly care 😊🌞

Yes I’m guessing this is what has happened but I do not think anyone knows this for definite it’s speculation.

For me its how peter treated her on that documentary which shows me that hes a shit person

There's some talk a out his manager having an input in the show, and having had a part to play in destroying Katie's image

She is a mess, there's no doubting it. Shes gotten many things wrong and hasn't changed her ways, its not good and I dont judge anyone for disapproving of her 🤷‍♀️

But I cant help but feel that shes also a victim and that Peter's impact on their kids has helped contribute to the rift

I would say that she never abandoned Harvey, when she really could've though. That for me, makes me respect her a little.

Wait...her not ABANDONING her son makes you respect her?? That's the absolute basic of basic things you do for a child - be a parent. Just because he has complex additional needs it doesn't make her some sort of respectable person just because he stayed with her. I don't mean to be rude, but I find it absolutely barmy that you even think that she "could've... abandoned..." ANY child.

Katie has well documented issues with alcohol and drugs plus if it was somewhere like a nightclub then there was a high possibility of Katie taking over the night with some pics for the paps .
If the party was filmed for the programme or paid for by her dad then I can see why mum wouldn’t be invited. Have Katie and Peter attended any events post divorce and been cordial for their children’s sakes?

Her drug issues are not on her ex or her daughter to manage. And do you really think they celebrated her birthday as a family in a nightclub? You missed the point of my post entirely. Only princess can decide if she wants her mother there and my point is whether it was actually HER decision. The article also said that Princess spends a lot of time at Katie's house. So they are not estranged at all. I actually think KP would probably respect if that's what Princess wanted. If she for example wanted two birthday parties, one with each parent. Or her mother would be invited for parts of the day and not others. KP obviously feels she's systematically being kept away from important events. It's the easy way out to say she's a lunatic because of drugs and therefore can't be believed.

So she gets a free pass just because she's a woman??

Thats not how it works

You're new to MN then I assume.

No one deserves any form of SA but she said she was gang raped as a 7 year old. She wasn't. Being SA when your children are nearby must be a horrific thing but she said she was gang raped when she was robbed again she wasnt.

Yes something did happen on both occasions and you wouldnt wish it on anyone but the bottom line is she lied.

RepoTheGeriatricOpera · 10/08/2025 17:31

Everything about Katie screams trauma response.

Peter Andre was emotionally abusive and then manipulative as fuck afterwards.

I really hope the kids can all come through the chaos of their upbringing.

They were both abusive to each other. I don't like Andre but he's had more normal healthy relationships since.

Every relationship Katie has had before, with and after Peter has been a car crash. There's only one common denominator.

Also, your comment reads as if a child with complex needs is somehow easier to "abandon" than a (for want of a better word!) "normal" child is...have I misread that, or were you suggesting that?

I dont think he treated her badly at all

She's a car crash and while Ive read numerous threads excusing her by way of saying she's got this or that disorder, or she had this or that trauma, the bottom line is she is an adult and responsible for herself and her behaviour and her children have been badly parented by her.

She has killed numerous pets through neglect, its only by luck her children havent been severely physically harmed although they probably have emotionally.

First post nails it.

She claimed she was gang raped in South Africa. The film crew state this did not happen.

She's also alleged many other allegations of sexual abuse...... 🤨?

I think she is a narcissist. I also thinks she knows how to manipulate people into thinking she acts the way she does because of "trauma"/abuse by men. I don't buy that. I think she's the one that abuses her partners (and others). She's no victim. But she knows gullible women will fall for it.

The person I quoted there downplayed her being sexually assaulted with her kids there during a robbery as her being "touched up".

There's no excuse for that.

Really? The whole show seemed like him just trying to get on with life while she relentlessly belittled and pecked at him. I remember her pointing out a (small) bogey he had to the camera and laughing about it for about 10 minutes, saying he was disgusting etc while he looked mortified.

MegaMinion34 · 10/08/2025 18:53

He was very controlling and nasty towards her on their reality TV show. She isn't without fault though. Several of her pets have died due to her neglect (one puppy was crushed to death by a chair and one of her horses escaped their paddock and got fatally struck by a car), she's lost her driving license several times, her house (that her children lived in) was a complete state, she's declared bankruptcy numerous times despite being a multi millionaire so clearly doesn't make the best financial decisions, and she doesn't have custody of her two youngest children. She has had some traumatic experiences and is clearly very troubled and in need of help, but her children shouldn't suffer because of it.

Agree. I think it’s stunningly rare that women lie about rape but it does very occasionally happen.

She hasn't made good choices, there's no denying that, but a guy in his mid/late 30s going for a 20 year old isn't exactly healthy either.

Livelovebehappy · 10/08/2025 18:56

I actually thought Andre was very manipulative and thoroughly awful during the breakup. But I think the last couple of years, Katie has brought a lot of this on herself. She’s pretty much neglected the children by dropping them to jet off either for holidays with boyfriends or for plastic surgery. Instead of maintains a family home for the children, she spent money on other stuff making herself bankrupt. Her recent surgery shows her boobs are enormous and she seems determined to make an embarrassing characture of herself. It’s really sad….

LadybugsAndSunshine · 10/08/2025 18:56

She’s always been a shit mother, I remember when Harvey was born and she had a show called something like Jordon becomes a mum. She took her baby son to Ayia Napa with her teenage boyfriend and there was a scene where Harvey was on a bed surrounded by clothes and makeup while she partied on the balcony. She also took Gareth Gates virginity whilst pregnant with Harvey. I’ve never understood why people think she is a good mum to Harvey, she isn’t.
Junior and Princess are probably both mortified by her and god knows what happened to Bunny and Jett.

I’m assuming none of you are aware that KP was gang raped at 7 in a park and is completely traumatised?

Hmmmmm. She was also "gang raped in South Africa" - only the camera crew state it never happened.

People do make up immoral lies you know?
