Katie Price has been in the spotlight since 1996, after adopting the name Jordan for her Page 3 and men’s lifestyle magazine appearances.
Throughout her time in the public eye, Katie has always kept her fans in the know. Having recently discovered her husband Kieran Hayler, 29, had a 10-month affair with her (former) best friend Jane Pountney, 50, Katie is now ready to share her version of events.
The Sun recently released an extract of her new book Reborn To The Sun, giving fans a sneak peek into what they can expect from the tell-all.
Here’s what we learned from Katie Price’s new book Reborn...
1. Katie considered suicide after finding out about husband Kieran’s affair
She told The Sun: “If I hadn’t been pregnant with Bunny and had my children, I would have 100 per cent tried to kill myself.”
2. She had even thought about how she wanted to end her life
“Looking back it terrifies me — I contemplated hanging myself or ramming my car in a wall.
“I felt so alone. Kieran hadn’t bothered to come and find me and I just thought, ‘I want to drown myself in the sea’.
3. Katie wishes ex-best friend Jane dead
“Jane is a cold, calculating, evil, manipulative bitch who I hope dies in a car crash or in a very painful way.
“If she was on fire in front of me I wouldn’t even spit on her.”
We certainly wouldn't want to get on her bad side!
4. Katie caught Kieran and Jane kissing on a beach during a joint family holiday to Cape Verde in 2014
“I have never ever been so low as after I found out about them. I just wanted to end it all.
“I was consumed by those dark thoughts, all of the time.”
5. Kieran Hayler had a sex addiction
“My husband had a sex addiction — easy prey.
“To cope with that is enough but your friend, your best friend, sleeping with your husband...just imagine how that feels."
6. Jane never apologised to Katie for what happened
“She has never apologised to me. Never tried to make contact," said Katie.
“She is a coward. She had the balls to do that behind my back, but never had the balls to say sorry."
7. Katie says Kieran is a reformed man
“He knew he needed therapy and he had it. I trust him now,” she said, adding that the old Kieran is dead.
"The change in him is incredible. The man who cheated on me has gone.
“He is happy being a dad, looking after our animals, riding his horse Eddie and being a decent husband."
8. She doesn’t regret staying with Kieran
“I don’t regret staying with him for a second. I don’t go on at him for what happened. I’ve had to move on," she said.
“Our marriage was fine. We were in the first year of marriage, our sex life was great. But Jane was not happy in her marriage so she wanted my husband.”
9. Katie slept with a married man
“He had a wife he claimed to be divorcing but they had three kids together," she explained.
"Inside, I was squirming... ‘Oh, f--king hell, Kate, what have you got yourself into?’ I thought. I could’ve kicked myself, and Mark for that matter, for playing up Mr X’s “single” status.”
10. She compared sex with ‘Mr. X’ to her red Bosch drill
“Put it this way: If I’d needed a shelving unit erected, he’d have been perfect. Instead of handling me gently and passionately like most women want, he was like a cordless drill on a multi-speed setting!
“He reminded me of a red Bosch that I have in my garage.”
11. Leandro Penna assaulted Katie in a Parisian restaurant
Katie reports that her ex-boyfriend Leandro Penna, a 27-year-old South American model who Katie dated for two years back in 2012 assaulted her in a Parisian restaurant.
“In front of everyone Leo grabbed me by the neck and slapped me,” she reveals in her new book.
12. Katie wanted to call her daughter 'Disney'
“Initially I’d wanted the name “Duchess” – like Duchess Kate – and that went well with Princess too, but Kieran reckoned it sounded too harsh.
“At one point I wanted to name her “Disney”, but I didn’t really want her growing up thinking she’d been named after a theme park!
“Then there were “Bambi” and “Precious”, which Kieran also hated.
“I liked old-fashioned names like “Ethel” and “Peggy” too, but the danger was that she might sound like one of the characters in EastEnders.
“When “Bunny” came into my head, it seemed right and Kieran agreed it was cute. We’d left it so late we’d had a letter reminding us to register her name! I’d been close to writing back to ask for more time. But that’s me. Lastminute.com all over!”
Katie also has son Harvey from previous relationship with footballer Dwight Yorke, who she recently revealed has nothing to do with their 14-year-old.
She also has two children, Junior and Princess, from her marriage to Peter Andre, as well as Jett and Bunny with current husband Kieran Hayler.
The mum-of-five recently admitted she is looking to expand her family by adopting a child.
She told The Sun: “We are getting a baby from abroad. I want to give a home to a child that needs a home.
“I would like another natural baby further down the line too. But not now! I’ve just got my body back in shape.”
Katie Price’s new book Reborn is released on 22 September.
