Katie Price has revealed that her ailing mum Amy does not have much longer to live after revealing her terminal diagnosis last year
Fans of Katie Price were utterly stunned by the news last year that her mum Amy was terminally ill with a lung condition.
Whilst Pricey is normally seen as a fun-loving figure who doesn't necessarily take herself too seriously, her admission about her mum's health left fans reeling.
Confessing that Amy, 64, was battling Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, she was initially given a prognosis of three to five years.

For her stint in the jungle in 2004, Jordan opted for practical corn rows and clear skin, but those shower scenes relaunched her career and set her firmly on a reality TV trajectory

Fresh out of the jungle and with a new man in the form of 90's pop sensation Peter Andre on her arm, Katie was all about the matchingoutfits. She ditched the braids and slap-free face for a more high maintenance look.

A new mum to second son Junior, Katie was quickly back in her knickers on the red carpet, sporting a noticeably slimmer nose and smoother skin.

As she prepared to welcome baby number three (her first daughter, Princess Tiaami), Jordan was looking more than a little like her impending arrival. Weird or what?

Now mainly known as Katie Price, she admitted after confirming her nose job, "I've always had a thing about my nose."I haven't had a full 100% nose job. They shaved the bone – they didn't break my nose. In fact, I liked my nose before and now. If I had a cupboard with both noses, I'd alternate between them!"

At 30, Katie was still young but already a fan of fillers."I get my forehead and around my eyes Botoxed every six months and I love it. You can't beat it," she said.

She's not been shy about the work she's had done on her teeth, either. "I didn't do it for cosmetics, I fell off a skateboard and cracked my teeth when I was younger," she admitted."They were so expensive. When I was in the US, I watched Extreme Makeover and went to see the dentist on there – $150,000 my bloody teeth cost me."

She was also one of the pioneers of lip fillers, sporting the plumped up pout that's so very mainstream these days.

By 2014, the boobs were most definitely BACK, as was a painfully taught-looking face.

As her facial muscles relaxed back to normal, her hair followed suit and Katie looked happier and more natural than she had in a while when she got together with Kieran Hayler.

Katie went into the CBB house in 2015 and admitted having her boobs reduced – but that things hadn't gone exactly to plan."They were going to take them out on Monday," she told her shocked housemates. "My implant was hanging out in New Year's Day. But it hasn't stopped me coming in, because I'm not running around."

We've lost track of where Katie's boobs were in 2016, but this is the year she seemed to become seriously addicted to fillers.

A botched botox job left Katie feeling 'ugly' in 2017."I absolutely hated it... the only thing I could do to sort it out was to remove the threads and then have a face lift. I never ever wanted a face lift at my age - I would have had one in years to come, but I didn't want one this young,"

She eventually returned the Brussels-based surgeon who fixed her botched boobs back in 2015.

By 2018 her face was back to normal, but not before shocking pictures emerged of her post surgery in Belgium, her face wrapped in bandaged and surgical fluid tubes hanging off her head.
However, Katie's most recent update on her mum's illness, a condition in which the lungs become scarred and breathing becomes increasingly difficult, is deeply upsetting.
In an emotional interview with Now magazine, Katie revealed that things were not looking good for Amy, who Katie is extremely close to.
She said: "My mum is dying, it’s that simple. They normally diagnose it three to five years but Mum has already had to change her life.
"She’s sold her house because of the stairs. She really struggles with them."
However, Katie went on to reveal that the real danger for Amy could be as simple as the common cold.
She said: "But she could get a cold now, not get rid of it, and die within month – that’s how bad it is.
"Either way, she hasn’t got long."
She added that whilst she's been staying strong for the sake of her children Junior and Princess who know about the condition, "it will really hit" when she "starts wearing the oxygen mask."
This comes as Katie prepares to run the London Marathon this weekend dressed as a lung to raise awareness for her mum's illness.
