Poor women. It looks like another relationship has gone terribly wrong.
I’ve always liked her and really hope she finds happiness one day.

On a wider note, ( & my sister is one ) why do some women think any man is better than no man?
I’m not suggesting KP thinks that, but plenty of women put up with such awful men, sometimes for their entire lives.

Making tracksuits is pretty difficult!

Rosalyn69 Wed 25-Aug-21 10:50:29

Grow up.

FannyCornforth Wed 25-Aug-21 10:50:29

And Katie must have a cracking sense of humour, bless her.
I’d love it if she made this.
It was to promote her range of riding gear.

Grow up.

was that aimed at me? grin

FannyCornforth Wed 25-Aug-21 10:51:29

Trying again…

FannyCornforth Wed 25-Aug-21 10:51:57

Ah, school girl error smile

JaneJudge Wed 25-Aug-21 10:52:09

Now we have two pink ponies grin

FannyCornforth Wed 25-Aug-21 10:54:45

Look at the way that she’s holding her skirt! She’s loving it! grin

In the last few months every time I put on the laptop some news is coming up about Katie Price and quite honestly I take a glance and then ignore most of it. From botched semi face lifts to more lip fillers and lipo-suction I could not give a flying fish hook what she is doing.

I rate her for one thing and that is her devotion to her son Harvey and tirelessly doing all she can for him. She seems to be getting her daughter into the make-up thing I wish she wouldn't it is so not necessary.

Come on, Grans, there are some amazingly judgemental and patronising comments on this thread. (And that picture was unforgivable.)
Cut the woman some slack - this is not “the spirit of GransNet”

lemsip Wed 25-Aug-21 11:45:19

she's doing well on celebrity masterchef currently..

JaneJudge Wed 25-Aug-21 11:54:54

There is nothing wrong with the photograph?

Lillie Wed 25-Aug-21 12:31:54

in context the photo is fine
it was for a promotional event to celebrate 5 years of kp equestrian clothing
it was far more memorable than beige jodhpurs and a navy riding jacket
thats the whole point with katie price

Aveline Wed 25-Aug-21 13:10:32

Her lack of taste in allowing that photograph to be taken and sold is what's unforgivable. ?

FannyCornforth Wed 25-Aug-21 13:12:06

She’s a brilliant self publicist.
The fact that I remembered that promotion probably some 10 years after the event is testament to that.
Maw do you think that I’m being patronising ?

FannyCornforth Wed 25-Aug-21 13:14:03

Aveline it’s tongue in cheek camp! It’s a joke! She is taking the mickey out of herself smile

Lillie Wed 25-Aug-21 13:41:39

last night on masterchef she said cheekily
what is there left for katie to do next
she said she isnt phased at giving anything a go
so presumably the utterly absurd too

She once let it slip that the local council paid approximately £1000 a week for Harvey’s transport to the school he attended. When she was pulled up on it she said she could so why shouldn’t she. She was in CBB at the time, reportedly being paid over £300,000. She’s been arrested for drink driving and convicted, also attempting to pervert the course of justice by lying about who was driving the car. Yes she’s a wonderful mother.

DanniRae Wed 25-Aug-21 14:43:50

To my mind if you live the kind of life that KP does - courting publicity - then you have to accept that people are going to judge you.
In other words 'if you don't like the heat stay out of the kitchen'

Newatthis Wed 25-Aug-21 15:20:17

I am not sure she would take any from any of us. She has had a team of professionals, stylists, PR people etc working for her for many years and it would seem not taken their advice.

Aveline Wed 25-Aug-21 15:50:03

FannyCornforth I know! My comment was re MawBe saying the use of that photo was unforgivable.
Katie Price is a brand. She sells every aspect of her life. Fair enough. She's entitled to but I don't understand the criticism of critics. We're entitled to comment on her and her lifestyle.

JaneJudge Wed 25-Aug-21 16:01:14

All children with SEND with an ECHP are entitled to transport to school if it is the most suitable school for them. Harvey is an adult now isn't he? he has to manage his own finances.

Barmeyoldbat Wed 25-Aug-21 16:28:03

The Council paying for the transport for Harvey to go to school is something, as said by JaneJudge every pupil wi and best of all accepting of Harvey.th SEND is entitled to and does not reflect in anyway what kind of mother KP is or how she runs her life. In my mind she is an excellent mother, her children appear to be happy and accepting of Harvey. Harvey lives across the road from her in a house that is rented for Harvey and his carers, she is trying to make him as independent as possible and I believe she has also been going to colleges with him to find him the right placement. A caring mother. And I might add we all have our faults so who are we to criticise.

grannypiper Wed 25-Aug-21 16:46:49

Bluebelle Has she made a mess of her life ? You bet she has, 2 of her children were removed by social services, she has been convicted of drink driving, she has been made bankrupt and has left a trail of people out of pocket and rubbed their nose in it whilst will she continues to spend on holidays and cosmetic surgery. She was on t.v crying about her Mother being terminally ill then dumped her remaining children with her whilst she trooped of with a young lad she had just met. I doubt very much that her children haven't been affected by her lifestyle.

I said patronising comments Fanny Cornforth.
But TBH I thought the choice of picture tasteless and seemed to be mocking her. It certainly did not suggest unalloyed admiration.
