After Katie Price misses her daughter Bunny's first day of school to party abroad, psychotherapist Anna Williamson warns she could irreversibly damage her relationship with her children
She raised eyebrows when she was pictured partying with new toyboy Alex Adderson in Spain last week just days after a sudden split from Kris Boyson. But Jordan faced a barrage of abuse when she appeared to miss her four-year-old daughter Bunny's first day of school, leaving her with estranged husband Kieran Hayler, who uploaded a photo of her in her school uniform alongside her brother Jett, five.
Trolls were quick to blast the former glamour model with one branding her “a horrible mother” while another posted: “She clearly cares more about her toyboys than her children”.
To add to the drama, while Jordan, 40, was snapped gyrating up against Alex, 25, in a Mallorcan beach club, Kieran, 31, was photographed taking children Bunny and Jett, five, to school – and reports claimed he tried FaceTiming Katie three times, with no success, so that she could be a part of the special moment.
Meanwhile, her children Junior, 13, and Princess, 11 have been staying with their dad Peter Andre this summer and last week he shared a shot of them in their school uniform to Instagram. The whereabouts of her son Harvey, 16, were unclear but sources tell Closer that Jordan's mum, Amy stepped in to look after him.

Anna told Closer: “Katie has opened up about how important her kids are to her in the past, but she needs to remember her role as a mother, no matter what is going on with her personally. A parent will always be held accountable by their kids – they are less forgiving and won’t think, ‘My parent was absent due to this’ - but instead will just remember the fact their parent was absent.
"Resentment can build up – so if Katie is constantly unavailable and unreliable, she risks losing her kids emotionally."
