Vicky, 27, is currently promoting A Christmas Kiss, the follow-up to her debut All That Glitters, which was about a young girl from Manchester thrust into the dizzying heights of reality TV fame. We wonder where the inspiration for that one came from…
Former glamour model Katie, 37, has so far released 10 novels, but ex-Geordie Shore star Vicky has questioned how much creative control the mum-of-five has over the books.
Speaking to the Daily Star, Vicky said: “Katie has done exceptionally well wither books but I don’t know how much involvement she actually has in them.
“I have a ghost writer but I’m fully involved in every part of the creative process from start to finish, including some writing. With the other commitments I had, two books a year was so draining physically and mentally. I couldn’t work out how it’s possible to do four books a year like Katie.”
Katie has never hidden the fact her successful novels are ghostwritten, but she’s adamant she’s fully involved in the process.
She told the MailOnline in 2008: “I’m not going to lie, I don’t sit there with a typewriter and write it out, of course I don’t.
“I don’t have time to do that. I say how I want the storyline to be, each chapter is done, I read through it, change it and then it goes away to be written.
“So I’m not going to sit here and say I write it word for word because I’d be lying. I actually say how I want the story and that’s how it happens.”
