Katie Price Takes Aim at Ex-Husband Alex Reid
Katie Price has launched a scathing attack on her ex-husband Alex Reid, accusing him of having no claim to fame other than being romantically involved with her. In a new podcast interview, the 48-year-old star insisted she was the breadwinner in their relationship and that Reid only gained celebrity status through their association.
Speaking to Gogglebox star Joe Baggs on his Not My Bagg podcast, Price did not hold back when the topic of her former husband came up. Baggs mentioned that Reid was the first celebrity he ever met, as they attended the same school. Price retorted: "But is he? What because he kissed me? Like, what makes him a celebrity?"
Price Claims Ex-Husbands Used Her for Fame
Price continued her tirade, stating: "When they associated with me, they were nothing, and I mean nothing. Just because they’ve been with me suddenly they think they are a celebrity. They ponce around me, use me, I’m the breadwinner and it becomes boring."
The comments come as Price faces yet another personal crisis. Her current husband, Lee Andrews, 43, was sent back to prison earlier this week. The turmoil coincides with the release of her controversial new documentary, Katie Price: Nothing To Hide.
Whirlwind Marriage and Bitter Divorce
Alex Reid became Katie Price's second husband after they met at Liberty X star Michelle Heaton's 30th birthday party in 2009. The couple hit it off and tied the knot in Las Vegas less than a year later. However, their whirlwind marriage quickly soured, leading to a bitter and public divorce that was finalized in 2012.
Following the divorce, Price sold numerous stories about their relationship, revealing intimate details to the press. Reid has previously admitted feeling "humiliated" by her decision to share their private affairs publicly.
Fallout from Documentary Continues
The interview comes amid ongoing fallout from Price's documentary series, which features several of her former lovers speaking candidly about their relationships with her, including former flame Gareth Gates. Meanwhile, Alex Reid is launching a new theater show titled "His Story" or "His Truth," with tickets priced at £43, promising to offer a side of the crossdresser that few know.
Price's comments have reignited discussions about her relationships and the dynamics of fame within her personal life. As she navigates yet another challenging period, her sharp words for Reid highlight the lingering tensions from her past marriages.
