Katie Price has officially split from her boyfriend JJ Slater after nearly two years together, with the reality TV star speaking out to confirm the shocking reason behind her decision
Katie Price has split from her boyfriend JJ Slater after almost two years together, with sources revealing the former glamour model has finally accepted the relationship has no long-term future.
The 47-year-old reality TV icon, who began dating the Married At First Sight UK star in early 2024, is said to have ended the romance after months of private doubts over whether JJ was “husband material”.
Although Katie had publicly insisted the couple were going strong, insiders claim cracks in their relationship had become impossible to ignore. One source explained that while Katie hoped her concerns would fade, they only intensified with time, leading her to realise she couldn’t picture herself walking down the aisle for a fourth time.
JJ, 32, was reportedly left devastated by the split and has since packed his bags and moved back to his home in Essex. According to those close to the pair, he genuinely believed they were building a future together — but Katie ultimately saw things very differently.
The couple’s romance began shortly after Katie’s split from former fiancé Carl Woods, marking yet another high-profile chapter in her complicated love life. At one stage, Katie even spoke openly about the possibility of having another child with JJ, which would have been her sixth.
JJ rose to fame on the 2023 series of Married At First Sight UK, where he made headlines after forming a controversial connection with transgender bride Ella Morgan, despite being matched with another contestant during the experiment.
During their relationship, JJ stood by Katie through several health scares, particularly as fans expressed concern over her dramatic weight loss and increasingly gaunt appearance. Katie later addressed the speculation herself, explaining that she was undergoing medical tests to investigate the unexplained changes to her body.
In April 2024, JJ spoke candidly about their romance, admitting he wished it had been Katie waiting for him at the altar on Married At First Sight. He said at the time that all he wanted was to make her happy, insisting they were both adults who wouldn’t waste time on a relationship without a future.
However, despite those heartfelt words, it appears the relationship has now run its course — with Katie choosing to walk away rather than pursue another marriage she no longer believed in.
