Former glamour model Katie Price has dropped a sensational claim about her ex-husband Peter Andre, alleging he strategically advised her to pursue wild behaviour during her 2004 I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! appearance to boost her fading career.
The Jungle Strategy That Changed Everything
According to Price, Andre - then her husband - suggested that letting loose in the Australian jungle would be the perfect career move. "He told me, 'Just go in there, be yourself, be wild, it will be great for your career,'" Price revealed during her latest podcast appearance.
The reality star, now 46, didn't hold back in her assessment of Andre's motives: "Basically, he was saying, 'Your career's gone down the pan, just go in and be wild.'"
Manager's Emails Add Fuel to the Fire
The plot thickened when Price discovered emails between Andre and their former manager, Claire Powell. "I've seen emails between him and Claire Powell," she disclosed, suggesting documented evidence supports her claims about the calculated career advice.
Price's jungle appearance ultimately proved transformative, not just for her career but for her personal life. The series famously documented the early stages of her relationship with Andre, culminating in their 2005 marriage and a reality show that followed their lives together.
A Marriage Unravelled
The couple's fairytale romance eventually soured, with their divorce finalised in 2012. Price has been increasingly vocal about their relationship in recent years, using her podcast platform to share her perspective on their time together.
This latest revelation adds another layer to the ongoing public narrative about one of Britain's most documented celebrity relationships, suggesting that even their most spontaneous-looking moments may have been more calculated than viewers realised.
Price's claims paint a picture of reality television where personal relationships and career strategies often blur together, leaving fans to wonder where authenticity ends and performance begins.
