Katie Price and the rift with her kids?

[youreactinglikeafunmum]

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

He's a creep who not only dated a 20 year old student as a middle aged man, but knocked her up ASAP too (yes I know they say they were "just friends" for the first 2 years .. as if that isn't even creepier!

Look at princess, Emily was only TWO YEARS older than that when nearly 40year old PA pursued her, the perfect little anti-katie!

KP pre and post PA : seems like a totally different person! That might not be his FAULT exclusively but he has embraced using her bad publicity to make himself look the "good guy" because that's pretty much been his brand ever since, hasn't it? The "good guy" who endured her.

KP may have become, or been made into a monster, but that doesn't make PA "the good one"

But KP is an adult, with a lot of resources available to her, B&J are young children.

KP seems to be the kind of person who thinks any attention (positive or negative) is better than none. She seems a very messed up person and I do think it's going to end badly for her.

Oddly enough I've just been watching the KP/PA clips on til tok. He is utterly vile but very sneaky with it. He had another programme after and there was a few times the mask slipped in that too. Totally played the role of the victim and got all the good publicity from the split. Likes to play father of the year. No-one loves their kids more then PA does.

I haven't seen the clips of the two kids but it seems like they are decent people. Thank god they haven't taken after their parents.

Jesus, that man has done well out of one song (and marriage) 🙄
It must be hard for the kids because their parents are not only famous, but a laughing stock as well.

Why? What did he do that was nasty? I am puzzled.

I actually really like Katie.
You can tell she’s been through a massive amount of trauma and hasn’t healed from it which has spiralled into other areas of her life.
Im a mother of a SEN daughter who has extreme meltdowns and violent outbursts and I can imagine how hard it was for her as Harvey grew bigger and stronger especially as she had younger children around her.

Peter Andre was definitely a narcissist I remember watching that show n he was rude af and did the silent treatment on her loads! Even at the time I remember thinking he’s not all he seems!
I’ve been in an emotionally abusive relationship and KP was likely in defence/reactive mode to his emotional putdowns/withholding affection and manipulation til it wore her down.

i saw Peter performing at a club in Ibiza years ago n afterwards fans tried to greet him n he just looked at everyone like they were shit and wouldn’t acknowledge anyone.

Emily seems nice but she seems massively under his control.

My opinion is KP has unresolved trauma which has let to C-PTSD .
She wasn’t able to cope with her children, no excuses there but she was probably living in survival mode just trying to get through day to day n numb her pain.
Constantly trying to better herself by having more surgery through not feeling good enough in past relationships.

Hopefully she’ll heal one day.

Also I remember Peter constantly saying no one knows the real reason we broke up too it’ll come out one day.. it was something along them lines I can’t remember how he worded it now but it made u think wow what did she do?? To portray her as the scumbag but without publicly saying what the actual meaning was.
He got famous because of her but wanted to continue that fame, play the victim, make the public dislike her n side with him n leave her in the gutter. Vile man.

She cheated on him with her dressage instructor, got pregnant, tried to claim it was Peters but they hadnt had sex in weeks and then had an abortion.

I remember when P and J were young PA used to say a lot on interviews and things how doing Cypriot style BBQs with the kids was his thing, like it was their version of Sunday roast kinda thing, and he was talking about at one point doing a kids book I think about BBQing at home...
Really painting this picture of dad who did cook outs a lot, the kids these days would call it "making core memories"

Then a wee while later he was filmed attempting to use the BBQ equipment at one of his houses and it was very clear that he NEVER cooked, he was getting increasingly angry and agitated as his rellies and staff hovered about trying to help him to appear to know what he was doing. Giving the cameras toothy grins and trying to be jokey about it but everyone was obviously on eggshells. And the last shot was them all obediently at least pretending to eat badly undercooked on the inside charred on the outside meat with no sides.

I think he pulled back from the FT cameras NOT so much to give his kids more privacy, but because his mask sometimes slipped and he wasn't always in control of that

I think it's wishful thinking to believe there must be an innocent answer that makes her the victim.

Personally I still think she's a narcissist.

It can be both.

Narcissistic behaviours can develop or increase

Victims can create their own victims

I feel like there was a big big change in her during/after her PA marraige

I hope this girl gets off to university, well done to her friends for supporting her.

Can we stop this nonsense of calling men "creeps" who date very much adult women (which a 20yr old Is) he was a good looking older man- you can see why she found him attractive. He's caused her no obvious harm has he ? They're long term married with 3 children of their own. She's a doctor - hardly some vulnerable waif and stray.

And whilst we're at it : her father was a surgeon. Peter was going in for some kind of orthopedic surgery. Surgeons daughter (Emily ) had a crush on him and asked her father to introduce them. Which he happily did. The rest is history.

Don't make innocent men out to be perverts where they are not. It minimises vulnerable teens etc that are groomed for nefarious reasons by much older men.

I’m not a fan of Peter Andre, but I think he’s a good dad and has been the only stable and safe parent that any of her kids have ever known. He loved Harvey and would have likely remained in his life if Katie hadn’t stopped him. Poor Jet and Bunny are stuck between her and their sex addict father. She lost custody of her four younger kids and Princess and Junior are right to keep her at arms length professionally if they want to succeed. She’d never turn up to support them, she just wants to take over any event she can muscle in on. I’d be absolutely humiliated if my mum turned up drinking and taking drugs with her tits spilling out of whatever transparent top she’d managed to stuff herself into.

This is a woman who left her youngest kids to fend for themselves on Christmas Day because she was so out of it. Her youngest daughter ended up cooking herself noodles for Christmas dinner because she was so hungry. I don’t care what “trauma” she paints herself as having in life, there’s no excuse for that level of horrific parenting and it really annoys me that people give her sympathy.

What about all the years she cared for Harvey? Does that count for nothing?

And used him for publicity ?

You mean laying in bed with him naked and posting it online?

Or all the times she kisses him on the mouth and asks him “who’s the best mum in the world Harvey?” to post online?

Or pulling him out of his safe and structured care placement to drag him around on “holiday” with the sacked social worker as his carer whilst she gets yet another procedure done and posting it all online?

Or was it all the times she’s made him swear on video and posted that online too?

Oh and don’t forget the time she had a big fight with her ex and ran to his house causing carnage in the middle of the night with police turning up - That must have made him feel really safe!

Yeah sure, those years count for something alright!

When I think about the opportunities the advantage of having rich famous parents can bring one, with the money and networking opportunities twinned with a massive dose of nepotism, I agree it is depressing to see them often choose a career in exploitopia.

There are so many amazing careers one could go into. Many, many people go to university, work hard and never get a break in the industry they are passionate about and trained hard for because it's difficult to pierce through the often tightly closed network in elite careers and it takes money and getting exposure to the right people and being in the right places. You see these people doing jobs they had no intention of landing up in simply because they must pay to live.

I remember Stella McCartney getting flack as a Nepo baby, but at least she did something arguably inspiring to those who are into high fashion with her connections which took effort and a certain expertise.

I feel so sorry for the two youngest.
I saw that awful clip with the step mother (if you can call her that) shouting and throwing food at them.

Her biggest failing imo is the failure to secure Harvey and the other childrens financial futures. .Harvey could have had the best of care either at home full time or in a care facility. Instead of which he is at the mercy of state funding and she is having to fight for support like the rest of us. And believe me it is a bloody hard slog to even get the most basic support
She threw way what could have been a wonderful future for Harvey which us v sad indeed.

Listen, I had a pretty horrendous childhood. But I don't behave the way KP does. Multiple children by different blokes (because she 'loves the newborn phase'), multiple drink driving convictions, animal neglect, constantly chasing the limelight & excessive plastic surgery that makes her look bloody ridiculous

Yep I agree I don’t think she has any depth of emotion. She seems to be able to move on from people, pets and houses very easily. And whilst I’m no fan of Peter Andre he obviously loves the limelight as does she I don’t think she was nice to him at all so in turn he was horrible to her they both brought out the worst in each other. However he’s gone on to be happily married and raise a stable family whilst she’s gone on from one disaster to another dragging the kids along with her. She leaves a trail of bankruptcy frustration and burnt bridges in her wake wherever she goes.

Oh wow.

Total self-sabotage and destruct mode on steroids🤦🏽‍♀️

Peter Andre loved her, but you cannot save someone or love someone out of acting out trauma like this. You can never love them enough. I bet she was either drunk, high, or did it to get back at him for something but just didn't understand the implications. KP does not understand or trust love. If she has it she will destroy it, because she doesn't think it's real or deserves it or even understands it. All of which might be understandable.

Poor girl. Whatever happened to her must of been bad. Then she compounded it by choosing a career based on sex based exploitation, like so many emotionally wounded women do. You get lots of 'love' and 'attention' and you think that's what you're good at.

This doesn't excuse her behaviour, but I suspect she has a personality disorder of some kind perhaps coupled with something else on top of everything else.

I don't like people saying she was a bad mother to Harvey or she was wrong to eventually give him up to 24/7 care. He has highly complex needs. Acknowledging she can no longer meet his needs and seeking good outside help and provision for him is a loving act of a parent.

I remember being impressed at her devotion to him. She was young and had a very disabled mixed raced child and I remember her taking him with her to locations where she was working abroad and being very proud of him. She didn't, to my recollection, complain about sleepless nights etc. Considering her status at the time, it revealed she did have a softer side.

But what I don't think some people realise is that having kids when you have severe past trauma, sometimes there's a competition to get your own neglected needs met (however dysfunctionally) with the massive attention and devotion children need. As you get older it either gets easier or harder.

Women get so much flack for giving their children to the fathers. I don't think it's fair.

It's not about acknowledging Harvey needed more care then she could give him its the fact she exploited him and continues to exploit him for money that isn't the actions of a good mother
I'm also the parent of a teenager with complex disabilities, I don't drag him around for publicity or talk about his intimate care needs on TV.
