Katie Price & victim blaming

[AtlasNeverShrugged]

Katie Price has been assaulted and has a "split eye".

However, the comments on Twitter are horrendous:

So many people calling her names, saying she probably deserved it because she's gobby etc.

@Pieceofpurplesky It looks nothing like K in BSL

Awful thing to have happened to anyone, especially if her kids were there.

She should spend her money on counselling and fixing herself mentally Instead of all that plastic surgery! She keeps making stupid and wrong decisions - she has the money to buy the right support around her.
Same goes for Katona - how many second/ third/fourth chances does one person get if they don’t bother to learn from them and change?

@Whatinthelord

People are bastards online. Seriously fucked up.

This Regardless of whether you '' like'' her or not, nobody ever deserves that.

Well she seems to be back with him, but also has a police car escorting her after she 'beefed up security' to quote the DM. It's all rather strange.

Nooo what!?

So weird though I suspect a column in closer magazine blaming steroid abuse soon enough

So sad, but so typical for women suffering domestic violence.

It is very strange. I suspect that with most things in KP's life, her agent is already spinning this for max drama. Whatever happened will all be revealed in her next reality tv show, or in a Sun exclusive.

Really sad because what happened was a real event (I assume) but it all just gets rolled into the ongoing drama that is her life.

I wish for her sake, she'd just turn her back on fame for a year or two.

Like most other victims of DV. That's why many of their friends and family distance themselves. The difference between Katie Price and most other women suffering this, is that her experience is documented in the media.

Very shocked seeing her in the car with him. Only saying how scared she was, oh I don't know.... Something not adding up here.

I was a victim of DV and it took me years to leave despite knowing it was wrong. I lived in hope it would get better.

I'm not judging her choice to go back - that's just more victim blaming.

I'm shocked

But I too returned after extreme D v

Which I regret every single day

Trauma bonding?
Denial

Gaslighting

Him telling me it was all my fault
Me trying to help him

I feel for her !!!!!!

So he posted an update on Instagram

How it wasn't him and he wants to clear his name

She's just had a crash in her car and it's rolled. Papers say she is arrested and in hospital. It's talking about drink and drugs. She is supposed to be banned from driving because of previous offenses. Sad to see her spiral down like this.

Yes sad to see people spiral out of control but in my mind anybody who drinks under the influence of drugs and alcohol needs time in a cell.

Driving whilst banned, on drugs on a public road

She needs jail time. These are the same roads that myself and my loved ones drive on (and anyone else for that matter). She is putting everyone at risk and doesn't appear to care or have any remorse.

Anyone who thinks she is a 'good parent' needs to have a good re-think. The drugs will stay in her system for ages and she is supposed to be a responsible adult for them. God knows how many times she will have driven them somewhere with drugs in her system.

Zero respect for her now

She's spiralliing out of control, god knows where this will end. I hope she gets the help she so clearly needs.

Has anybody seen the news about her flipping her car whilst enroute to get more drugs? She's apparently on a driving ban at the mo

She really doesn't help herself.

Sorry, just saw the previous responses. For some reason, they didn't show on the preview. Look like the thread hadn't been updated for a few weeks.

@OrangeJuiceAndNoodles Yes, I think the four posters on the thread before you might have seen that

Fair enough (and cross post!)

I agree with pp btw, I feel like my sympathy for her has run out.

She's not a good mum and there's no way to continue spinning that. This is obviously very separate to whatever happened with the 'event' a few weeks back, but she's clearly been out of control for years.

Well if she had killed someone it would mean a lot of jail time. I hope she does get a custodial sentence. Her driving record is appalling.

The outpouring of sympathy sickens me. Same as when Ant (ant and dec) crashed his car. What if someone had been injured or killed?!

This is her 6th driving offence. She seems to think she's above the law, she really isn't.
