Katie Price: ‘Peter Andre’s hold over me is ruining my life’

Jordan's jealousy reaches fever pitch as ex-husband Peter Andre puts on a loving display with his family, while she's left pining for the past

Fresh from a scathing exposé by her former lover Charles Drury, Jordan faced more heartache from yet another of her exes last week. First husband Peter Andre shared a series of videos of their daughter Princess, 11 – who moved in with Pete last summer as Jordan’s life careered on a toxic path – dancing with his wife Emily MacDonagh in their plush mansion.

Jordan’s close pal Kerry Katona – with whom she partied last in September – even commented on Pete’s post, writing, “Awww love her [Princess] you should be so proud she’s a great kid.”

And pals say the videos hit a nerve with Jordan, 41, who was accused of cocaine abuse and having an “unlivable, filthy house” by toyboy Charles, 22 – especially as Kerry commented, too. And to make matters worse, her third husband, Kieran Hayler, posted a happy picture with his kids Jett, six, and Bunny, five, and girlfriend Michelle Pentecost on Instagram.

Meanwhile, former glamour girl Jordan was desperately seeking attention as she showed off her famous assets in an open coat with no top, as she posed on a busy London street.

A source explains, “She has a thick skin and can take more than most people, but watching her kids happy and settled with other mother figures was a real kick in the stomach, and it made her feel a hundred times worse about the direction her life’s gone in, while her exes seem to have it all.

"Watching Princess bond with Emily twisted the knife in the most, and she still desperately pines for that stability and love that an ordinary family life provides, which she only really ever had with Pete."

“His video also showed off how nice his house is, which Jordan immediately took as a dig at her, as her home has been labelled a ‘mucky mansion’. She can’t bear how he still gets under her skin and has this hold over her, even after all these years.

“Kerry was once friends with them both and her comment just reminded her of how things used to be and she wishes it was still like that.”

Earlier this year, the former glamour model – who reunited with her on/off beau Kris Boyson, 30, last week – shocked fans when she said she’d still be married to the singer if she hadn’t been so fame-hungry throughout their marriage, and has repeatedly described Pete as “the love of my life”.

Jordan – who’s also mum to Harvey, 17, from a relationship with Dwight Yorke, and Junior, 14, with Pete – has had a turbulent relationship with Pete since their bitter 2009 split. She has repeatedly lashed out at him, allegedly referring to him as a “b*llend” and a “glorified babysitter” in a drunken rant earlier this year. She also mentioned him again this summer during a boozy holiday in Turkey, drunkenly telling a nightclub crowd, “I went out with Peter Andre. Do you know Peter Andre? He was Greek, and they said once you’ve had Greek you’ve hit your peak, but I didn’t.”

Last year, Jordan’s ex Kieran, 32, revealed she was “obsessed” with Pete, saying, “There is not a day that went by in five years that I was married to Kate that she didn’t mention his name.” And Kieran put the boot in last week when he said he shares custody of Jett and Bunny, adding, “The kids have an up and down life on one side, stable on my side.”

Insiders tell Closer that Jordan hates that Pete can still get a reaction from her and she knows it’s preventing her from ever being happy. The source says, “Pete is always on Jordan’s mind, and that’s why she mentions him when she drinks – your true thoughts and feelings often come out when you’re drunk.

"But then, whenever she pushes him too far and he cuts ties, she gets all upset again because she can’t bear it when he’s completely out of her life. The irony is, she knows her obsession with him is stopping her from moving on and being happy with anyone else, but she can’t seem to let go – and it’s ruining her life.”

In May, Jordanpublicly sent a grovelling apology to Pete after another falling-out, tweeting, “I had a tough year last year! A person stirred trouble with me and Pete which he reacted to to protect our children.

"Yes I said things but I was upset and didn’t mean harm! Me and Pete love each other really lol! I’m sorry @MrPeterAndre if I hurt you!” Something Pete responded to, tweeting, “Do you know what, I really appreciate you saying that.”
