Reality TV star Katie Price and her partner, Married at First Sight contestant JJ Slater, have reportedly called time on their two-year relationship. The news, which emerged in early January 2026, suggests a bitter end to a romance that was dramatic from the very start.
A Relationship Born from Controversy
The pair first sparked dating rumours in late 2023, a move that immediately caused a public feud. JJ was fresh from a breakup with fellow MAFS star Ella Morgan, who publicly accused Katie of breaking "the girl code" by getting involved with her ex. While no crossover was alleged, the drama set the tone for their time in the spotlight.
Fans were also sceptical as Katie, 47, had recently ended a relationship with Love Island's Carl Woods and has a history of relationships with younger men, including Kris Boyson. Despite the doubts, the couple appeared committed, enjoying holidays, red carpet events, and blending their lives. JJ, 32, was welcomed into the family home and spent time with Katie's five children.
Plans for a Family and Underlying Tensions
The relationship seemed to reach a new level when they discussed plans to have a child together via IVF. In a podcast last year, Katie revealed she had secured donor eggs and had previously sourced a sperm donor before meeting JJ. However, in the same conversation, she hinted at unhappiness, stating she did not feel her "happiest" or "free" in the relationship, though she stressed it was not a reflection on JJ's character.
The Confusing Path to a Reported Split
By January 2026, reports indicated the couple had parted ways. A source suggested Katie had long-held doubts about JJ being "husband material" and had accepted she would not be walking down the aisle for a fourth time. It was claimed JJ had moved back to his home in Essex.
The situation was thrown into confusion just two days later when Katie posted a YouTube video featuring JJ. However, the footage was recorded in December 2025, leaving the true status of their relationship unclear. As of now, neither party has officially confirmed the split to the press.
The reported breakup marks another tumultuous chapter in Katie Price's personal life, following a relationship that captivated and confused the public in equal measure.
