Katie Price Opens Up in New Sky Documentary
Reflecting on her lifestyle, Katie said: 'I just don't think anyone can change me. I say to my mum all the time, "I'm 48. I'm never going to change. I am what I am. Just get used to it." She'll say, "Why do you do this? Why do you do that?" and I'll say, "Mum, just let me be me."'
Katie added: 'But I trust my family, and I find it hard to trust anyone. That's why my circle is so small these days. I don't need more friendships or anything. I'm happy with how it is.'
Four-Part Documentary Features Ex-Partners
Katie is currently promoting a brand new four-part Sky documentary, in which she candidly addresses her four marriages, nine engagements and her life and career to date. The series also features former partners including Dane Bowers and Gareth Gates speaking openly on camera, recounting wild evenings and remarkable moments from their time together, reports the Mirror.
Katie Values Control and Excitement
Katie says what she values most nowadays is having a clear sense of direction and remaining firmly in control of her own life. She said: 'Being in control of everything. No one controls me now. No one dictates what I do. I still have my little rebellious moments and all of that, but that's just me. My life will never be boring. It's always, "What's she done now?", and I think it's always going to be like that, but to be honest I like it like that, because it's exciting.'
From Glamour Model to Reality Star
Having first burst onto the scene as her alter ego 'Jordan' as a glamour model in 1996, Katie has since become one of the most photographed women of her generation. Over three decades, her life has unfolded across newspapers, magazines, reality television and social media, encompassing everything from marriages, motherhood and multi-million pound contracts to scandal, cosmetic surgery, bankruptcy and betrayal.
She said: 'Across the whole thirty years, there's always been an element of fun. But if you imagine weighing scales, as much as there's been good, there's equally been bad. As the decades went on, the bad started to take a toll on me, which obviously affected my mental health. But I am a happy girl, and I like to make things fun, different and creative. That's one thing you can't take away from me.'
Katie's Private Life Revealed
Despite the seemingly relentless turbulence in her personal life, she maintains that she actively seeks tranquillity whenever she steps away from the spotlight to cherish precious moments with her family. When quizzed about what her day-to-day existence is truly like, she revealed: 'Very boring, I would say. I love being at home and doing normal things: cooking, putting the fire on, watching TV, having a cup of tea and looking forward to the latest drama or reality show. I ride my horses, walk the dog and get my hair and nails done. That is literally it. I don't go to parties and all of that. Very rarely. I'm just a home girl, which people would probably be surprised to see.'
Katie Price: Nothing to Hide, a four-part Sky Original series, will be available on Sky and streaming service NOW on July 8.
