Katie Price Reveals Mother's Day Disappointment in Viral Video
Former glamour model Katie Price has publicly stated that her children Princess and Junior Andre failed to get her anything for Mother's Day. In a video posted to Facebook, Price expressed that her eldest son, Harvey Price, was the "only one that remembered" the special occasion, sparking widespread discussion among her followers.
The Mother's Day Video That Stirred Controversy
The footage, shared on Harvey's Facebook account, captured Katie arriving home to find Harvey waiting with a bouquet of pink tulips. Upon entering, she exclaimed with apparent delight, "Oh Harv, what have you got here for me? Look at them pink flowers!" She noted that pink is her favourite colour before declaring, "I love you. You're the only one that remembered. You're a very special man."
This heartfelt moment inadvertently highlighted that her other adult children—Princess, 18, and Junior, 20—had not presented her with gifts. Fans quickly picked up on this implication, with many interpreting it as a subtle dig at her other offspring. One commenter questioned, "Did I hear right Harvey the only one that remembered on Mother's Day?" while others labelled it a pointed remark about the lack of acknowledgment from Princess and Junior.
Mixed Reactions to the Video's Authenticity
While some viewers sympathised with Katie's apparent disappointment, others questioned the video's authenticity. A third observer argued that the scene felt "staged", suggesting, "Mummy queen has he been drilled to say this? Looks really staged. I'm sure her other children remembered not just Harvey." Despite these doubts, the video showcased additional gestures from Harvey, including a handmade card and a cake he reportedly baked himself.
Lips Kissing Sparks Viewer Discomfort
Throughout the video, Katie repeatedly kissed Harvey on the lips, a detail that provoked significant debate among viewers. While some defended it as a normal display of maternal affection, many expressed discomfort. One viewer remarked, "Am I the only person that finds it strange that they kiss on the lips?" Another added, "There's nothing wrong with loving your son, but why tf are you kissing him that much? On the lips at that. It's weird asf to me."
Further criticism noted, "It didn't bother me at first but when she kissed him more than four times it started making me feel uncomfortable. No shade. I just feel like you shouldn't be kissing your kids that much on the lips." This aspect of the video overshadowed the Mother's Day narrative for many, highlighting differing opinions on parental boundaries.
Katie's Family Dynamics and New Marriage
Katie Price, who has five children, recently married Lee Andrews in Dubai after a whirlwind romance. The ceremony occurred without any family or friends, including her children, in attendance. She has since explained her hesitation in introducing Andrews to her kids, stating, "I want to get to know him more myself." On Good Morning Britain, she admitted that virtual meetings via FaceTime are insufficient, emphasising her cautious approach to blending families.
When questioned about her rapid marriage, Katie defended her decision, saying, "And I think the thing that everyone can’t get their head round is why have I married him quick. I was there. We got engaged. And it just felt right, so why not get married?" This revelation adds context to her current family situation, amidst the Mother's Day revelations.
The Mirror has reached out to representatives for Princess and Junior Andre for comment on the matter, though no response has been publicly disclosed at this time.
