Former glamour model Katie Price, who rose to fame as Jordan, has announced the return of her alter-ego and says she will support her teen daughter if she wishes to follow in her footsteps

Katie Price would support Princess whatever career she choses to pursue

Former glamour model Katie Price has revealed that she’d support daughter Princess if she wanted to follow in her footsteps on OnlyFans. It comes as the glamour model mum-of-five prepares to bring back her X-rated alter ego Jordan with the help of new AI technology.

Katie built her career in the 1990s as Jordan, however, after nearly 20 years as her alter-ego, Katie ditched her moniker and career went in a different direction.

Now, mum-of-five Katie has declared ‘Jordan has never gone away’ and is making a comeback. Entrepreneur Katie, 47, has partnered with OChat to resurrect Jordan so that fans will be able to ‘chat’ with the busty model online thanks to AI.

In an exclusive interview with the Mirror, Katie tells us: “The thing is, Jordan has never gone away it’s the media that turned Jordan to Kate, I never did that. But that’s why I do the OnlyFans because I still love posing in front of the camera, posing how I did in the Jordan days. But there’s no magazines and there’s no platforms for that anymore, like in the print world.”

She adds: “I’m so excited because, like I say, things must have happened for a reason. Because who would’ve thought, three decades ago when I started off as Jordan, that 30 years on there would be such thing as AI so all of the archive I’ve got has been so amazing to use on this platform.” Meanwhile, Katie says she’s excited for the younger generation to meet Jordan for the first time.

“I’m so excited and the younger generation – because I always get asked when I’m live on TikTok and stuff, people are like, ‘Who’s Jordan’ now they’ll get to see who Jordan is, yes, bring her back,” she says.

Although Katie has been taking a trip down memory lane through her archive of Jordan snaps recently, she still feels as sexy as ever at the age of 47. When asked what her secret is, she spills: “Age, for me, is just a number. Yes, I know I have surgery and stuff like that but I don’t have surgery to look younger – I just look fresher. But age doesn’t bother me at all because I still feel as if I’m young. I’m still young-hearted and I still do the things that I want to do, nothing has changed just because I’ve got older and I’m looking forward to turning 50 because I’ll be even sexier at 50!”

As well as her career, Katie also juggles being a mum to her five children; Harvey, 23, Junior, 19, Princess, 17, Jett, 11, and Bunny, 10. And Junior and Princess, who she shares with her ex Peter Andre, have been carving out their own careers in the showbiz industry in recent years. Junior has released his own music while Princess is embarking on an flourishing career in influencing – and even managed to buy herself a £10,000 Audi car from her earnings in recent weeks.

Katie makes her pride of her children no secret as, when asked what she’s most proud of Princess and Junior for she gushes: “How talented they are, how beautiful they are. Beautiful humans inside and out. How well mannered they are.”

The mum is supportive of both their flourishing careers, and revealed that she would support Princess if she wishes to follow down her own career path and join OnlyFans. She teases: “Who knows, Princess may end up doing an AI or OnlyFans platform – but when I ask her – she’s 18 next month – she’s all busy doing her skincare and stuff like that so she… although she’s in the industry and doing her own thing, I was a bit more ballsy and I was more extrovert, does that make sense? [She’s] no exhibitionist like me.

“We’re very alike but she’s more reserved. I think anybody, if you’re 18, can do OnlyFans or this new AI thing because, yeah, anything goes for anyone out there. I think people have got this stigma with the OChat or OnlyFans that it has to be all sexual and it doesn’t at all. All I do on OnlyFans is what they’re basically going to be showing on the AI. Anything I used to do in the Jordan days will be on the AI.”

Whatever path any of her children choose to pursue, Katie will always be there to support and provide advice. When asked what advice she’d give her kids, she reveals: “I speak to them everyday and see them everyday. I would never stop them, they’ve got to work things out themselves.

“All I’d say is, don’t have all your eggs in one basket with management because, you know, it doesn’t work like that. And I think there would be people out there who just want to try and turn them into me but I want her… there’s only one me and there will be only one Princess, I want them to be individuals because the last thing I want is them to say [is], ‘oh you’re just copying your mum, haven’t you got your own identity’.

“But the good thing is Princess has got her own identity. There’s things that she turns down and I’m like, ‘why would you turn that down?’ We are different like that, which is good.

“Junior is an amazing musician, dancer, singer. I’ve got no doubt in him he will make it as a pop star. And Princess, she’s turning 18 next month, just let them enjoy it I don’t want them to feel pressured and they’re doing good, really proud of them.”

During his first official royal engagement at Lancaster Castle since becoming King, anti-monarchy protesters waited for King Charles as he arrived for the visit

King Charles has faced protestors during a royal engagement in Lancashire, as a group of anti-monarchists shouted “not my king” as he took part in a historic event. As his first official visit to Lancaster as the monarch, Charles arrived at Lancaster Castle today where he met with D-Day veterans and took part in an ancient ceremonial tradition.

The protestors were awaiting his arrival, as chants of “not my king”, “abolish the monarchy” and “ditch the Duchys” rang through the streets as the King’s motorcade arrived at the castle. The anti-monarchy protestors called for the Duchy income to be spent on local businesses and charities, as they made their intentions clear with placards and chants.

However, it did not derail the King, who met with a 101-year-old D-Day veteran named Richard Brock, who he remembered from a visit to Normandy last year.

During the reception at Lancaster Castle, Charles told Mr Brock: “You are fantastic.” Mr Brock’s son Tony Brock, who attended with him, said the King “mentioned a nip of whisky and said to keep taking it.”

The King, who is also the Duke of Lancaster, was greeted at the railway station from the royal train by the Lord-Lieutenant of Lancashire, Amanda Parker.

As part of an ancient ceremonial tradition, Charles was also handed the keys to the castle in front of the John O’Gaunt gateway. The reigning monarch has taken part in the Ceremony of the Keys with each visit to the castle since 1851, when the keys were first presented to Queen Victoria, with Queen Elizabeth also receiving the honour in 2015.

Students from the nearby Willow Lane Primary School were selected to attend the ceremony and meet the King, with some students offering him a bouquet of flowers.

Schoolchildren from local secondary schools including Ripley St Thomas and Lancaster Girls’ Grammar School also lined the route outside the castle accompanied by a performance from a military band.

After the ceremony at the castle, which was used as a prison until 2011, King Charles met with local business owners who were showcasing their work.

One such business owner was Gillian Hale, from Butlers’ Farmhouse Cheeses, who was told by the King that he loves to indulge in sheep’s cheese on a digestive biscuit.

The King also met a 101-year-old D-Day veteran, who he told to “keep drinking whiskey”(Image: PA)

Charles smelt some of the cheeses she had on display but did not taste any, as Ms Hale said: “We’re going to send some to him later in a goody bag. He was so gracious.”

The King was also given a neck tie and some gloves for the Queen from Northern Yarn, with business owner Kate Makin saying: “He was really interested in the regenerative farming and the local wools we use.”

Outside the castle, the King met eager royal fans who had been waiting to catch a glimpse of the monarch. Among those keen to see the King were friends Joan Hardcastle, 103, and Barbara Graham, 93, who had come with staff and two other residents from Laurel Bank Care Home.

Mrs Hardcastle held a framed photograph of Charles presenting her with her MBE for voluntary services 40 years ago, as she said: “I’ve seen him several times since. He was fine when I met him, very chatty.”

Care home manager Lyndsay Scott said: “It was Barbara’s idea to come. We got here at 9am, we’ve had flasks of tea and croissants.” After shaking the King’s hand as he left the castle, Mrs Hardcastle said he had not changed.

Before the King left, he unveiled a plaque commemorating his visit, made by sculptor Alan Ward, who has a studio and workshop inside the castle.

Meghan Markle raised eyebrows with a video of her twerking trying to bring on labour – and royal expert Jennie Bond has revealed how those at the palace would have reacted to the clip

Meghan Markle would have left King Charles ‘horrified’ with her “utterly bizarre” decision to share a video of her twerking to bring on labour, a royal expert has claimed. The Duchess of Sussex astonished royal watchers and fans by posting the video of her dancing in a hospital room alongside Prince Harry while waiting for the arrival of their daughter, Princess Lilibet.

In the clip, a heavily pregnant Meghan twerks to the Starrkeisha song Baby Momma lifting her skirt above her knees, raising her hands in the air and wiggling low with her hands on her hips and legs. Meghan shared the clip on Lilibet’s fourth birthday, saying: “Four years ago today, this also happened.

“Both of our children were a week past their due dates… so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn’t work – there was only one thing left to do!”

And for royal expert Jennie Bond, she believes it is an “astonishing video on any level” and reveals what the King would have thought of it. The former BBC royal correspondent told the Mirror : “The hours before you give birth are some of the most personal, intimate and private in the lives of any couple.

Meghan dropped low in the video (Image: Meghan/Instagram)

“And women are perfectly entitled to do whatever they feel like to get through the waiting, and the pain. Giving birth is a serious business, and anything to lighten the mood is welcome.

“However – to share those scenes with the world is utterly bizarre and, in my view, takes away all the magic of the moment. I cannot imagine why she chose to release it. Maybe show it one day to your nearest and dearest— but to anyone and everyone who wants to click on it?

“I can hear the voice of the late Queen’s former private secretary, Lord Charteris, repeating the comments he once made about Fergie: ‘Vulgar, vulgar, vulgar’.

Harry joins in with the dancing (Image: Meghan/Instagram)

“If the King has watched it, which I doubt, though he can’t have missed the headlines I’m sure he would be horrified. Royalty has to carry with it some measure of dignity.”

Since sharing the clip many have questioned why she posted it, given the couple’s supposed desire for privacy. And Jennie added: “I’m glad they were so happy before the birth, I’m glad Harry was there to support his wife in every way, I’m delighted to hear that he’s such a great dad. But they really can’t have it both ways.

“They can’t demand privacy and be so coy about sharing images of their children and then show us all these intensely intimate scenes. And she cannot expect to be treated as if she’s royal whilst behaving like a click-hungry social media influencer.

“Having said all that, there’s no doubt that videos like this connect in a very real way to young people. And perhaps that’s what Meghan is trying to do. My own daughter thought the video humanised both Meghan and Harry and was light-hearted and hugely relatable. It reminded her of her own pregnancies and labour and she thought it was rather charming.

In many ways, I agree with her. I just don’t think it sits happily with trying to cling to the vestiges of being ‘royal’.”

Peter Andre has spoken out on his near-two decade age gap with wife Emily MacDonagh, recalling one particular mistake which made their difference in age very noticeable.

Peter Andre has spoken out on his near-two decade age gap with wife Emily MacDonagh

Peter Andre has addressed his age gap relationship with wife Emily MacDonagh, who is 16 years younger than him. The couple have been married since 2015 and share three children; Amelia, Theo and Arabella.

Writing in his weekly New! Magazine column, the Mysterious Girl singer said that the dynamic ‘works’ for them and quipped that age is just a number, but did recall one incident where the gap was more prominent.

Taking to his column, Peter began by addressing 67-year-old Stephen Fry’s marriage to Elliott Spencer, who is three decades his junior at age 38. Admitting that he’s not one to judge, Peter wrote: “Actor Stephen Fry has talked about the 30-year age gap in his relationship with his partner, Elliott Spencer.

“It all depends on the relationship, how the partners are with each other and how they view things, I think. There’s a 16-year gap between me and Emily, and it really works for us,” he explained.

That’s not to say the age gap goes unnoticed, as Peter continued: “There’s one thing we do laugh about, though… We were at the Pride of Britain awards one year and Jon Bon Jovi came over to chat. I’ve met him many times over the years and he’s a lovely person.

He introduced himself to Emily and after he walked away, she turned to me and said, “Who was that?” I was like, “Are you serious? It’s Bon Jovi.” In the most confused but innocent voice, she said, “What’s a Bon Jovi?”

“We laughed about that a lot afterwards! It’s in those moments we may realise the age gap –usually with music and films – but in general, we love the same things. I think it’s what works for you in a relationship. Who are we to judge?”

Peter and Emily met when the latter was a medical student in her early twenties

The couple first met when the latter was 20 and Peter 36, but didn’t begin dating for two years. They were introduced through Emily’s dad, Dr Ruaraidh MacDonagh, a consultant urologist.

Peter was undergoing kidney stone removal surgery in 2010 performed by Ruaraidh, and he later met Emily – at the time a medical student – through the doctor.

The couple started dating in 2012 went on to marry three years later in a beautiful ceremony at Mamhead House and Castle in Devon.

Now parents to their three children and Emily a stepmum to Peter’s kids Junior and Princess, the family keep their three youngest kids’ faces away from social media and are relatively private online.

The BBC are demanding a ‘no more scandal’ policy on Strictly and are determined to make sure the 2025 line-up is the safest yet with a royal and Blue Peter stars being considered

Last year’s stars Wynne Evans and Jamie Borthwick created extra headaches for bosses

There is a “terrible, terrible fear” among BBC executives that Strictly Come Dancing will be struck by scandal again this year – and every effort is being made to ensure all contestants are squeaky clean.

The show has been dogged by shocking headlines in recent years, and this weekend EastEnders star Jamie Borthwick – on the show in 2024 – was suspended by the BBC after using a slur against people with disabilities on the set of Strictly while filming in Blackpool.

That came after Giovanni Pernice ws involved allegations of bullying and aggressive behaviour made by his partner Amanda Abbington, forcing the corporation to launched an internal investigation. In May, radio host Wynne Evans announced he is leaving his role after the broadcaster decided not to renew his contract.

He apologised for making what he described as an “inappropriate and unacceptable” comment during the Strictly Come Dancing live tour launch in December. The crude sexualised remark was aimed at dance pro and It Takes Two host Janette Manrara.

Now the BBC want to go risk free and are leaving no stone unturned to make sure the line-up is as safe as possible. Blue Peter presenters Joel Mawhinney and Shini Muthukrishnan are said to be under consideration – as is Tom Parker Bowles, the son of Queen Camilla.

Georgia Toffolo – the I’m a Celebrity Jungle Queen – is reportedly being lined up, as is Girls Aloud singer Nicola Roberts. Newly married former Love Island star Dani Dyer is being considered, it has been reported, with former Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan another name high up on bosses’ list.

“There is a terrible, terrible fear among those high up that these awful things are going to keep happening and the show will be brought into disrepute again and again,” one well-place BBC insider has told MailOnline. “With that in mind, they are taking no chances.

“There will be stringent checks, and asking around, and digging into potential stars’ backgrounds to make sure that they’re not choosing anyone who might damage the show. For years, there was the whole Strictly “curse” where the contestants and professionals kept having affairs. But that stopped.

“Changes were made to the partnerships and it worked. There have been other issues in the past couple of years, though. What’s been even more embarrassing for the BBC is that Wynne and Jamie have been from their own stable of stars. Going forward, those at the top want a wholesome image to shine through. No more scandal – just joy.”

This weekend EastEnders star Jamie Borthwick declared he is “deeply sorry” for using a derogatory term about disabled people. The shock news came six months after he was competing on the BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing – which is when the incident is said to have taken place.

The 30-year-old actor has appeared on EastEnders since 2006 in which he plays Jay Brown. However, it is stated he is on suspension from the soap following the revelation he used offensive language in a video that was allegedly shared with friends.

He has issued a grovelling apology which has been shared by The Sun on Sunday, stating: “I want to apologise sincerely and wholeheartedly for the words I used in the video showing my reaction to making it through Blackpool week on Strictly. “I am deeply sorry for any offence and upset my words and actions have caused. It is no excuse, but I did not fully understand the derogatory term I used and its meaning. That is on me completely.

“Now I am aware, I am deeply embarrassed to have used the term and directed it in the way I did. It was wrong.” He went on to issue an apology to the people of Blackpool and reiterate his regret over his words. The Mirror has contacted a representative of the star for comment.

Katie Price took to the stage in Portsmouth for a Pride performance on Saturday, showing off her gravity-defying Brazilian Butt Lift while belting out a selection of songs

Katie Price has worried fans again after taking to the stage showing off her tiny frame and eye-popping bum lift. The mum-of-five, 46, has admitted to losing weight recently, saying it’s something she ‘wanted to do’.

However, in Saturday’s snaps, the Pricey, who has admitted she suffers from body dysmorphia, sparked concern among her legion of loyal fans when she rocked up to sing at a Pride event in Portsmouth, sporting a tiny black thong leotard, fishnet tights, ankle boots and a sparkly crown with ‘Pricey’ encrusted on it in pink diamonds as the glamour icon belted out her favourite songs.

Addressing the excitable crowd, who she told she was not wearing any underwear, she said: “I could have put some more clothes on couldn’t I! It’s bloody freezing out here. The next song is one of my favourite karaoke songs, you’ll all know it, it’s energetic but sing along.

She continued: “I’ve got no knickers on, so keep checking that nothing’s on show. I keep doing that in case a lip hangs out.”

After that bombshell, Katie also commented on her gravity-defying bottom, promising: “I’m going to get some more in it this week, I want a bigger, better butt.”

Katie spoke candidly about her weight loss last month after fans expressed their concern over her appearance. Admitting that she had lost weight because she wanted to, she said on Rob Moore’s Disruptors podcast: “Yes I’ve lost weight. Yes that what I’ve wanted to do, I’ve wanted to lose weight.”

Explaining why she felt she needed to drop a dress size, she continued: “Because the past three, four years ago when I broke my feet and I was in a wheelchair for 10 months because they said I’d never walk again, and obviously you put weight on being in a wheelchair.

“And then I did all the IVF stuff, that also puts on weight. So yeah I did put on weight and I hated it, I felt uncomfortable and it wasn’t me.

“Now I’ve gone back, now the IVF that’s all come out, and I’m more active because I could do more because of my feet, and I’m horse riding again, then naturally, I’m going back athletic again.”

Praising the star’s figure, Married At First Sight, Ella Morgan, was brought out on stage by Katie in Portsmouth as the two women insisted they ‘loved’ each other despite their connection to JJ Slater. Ella dated JJ, who is now Katie’s boyfriend, when the pair appeared on the Channel 4 show two years ago.

Complimenting each other’s bodies, including their bums and boobs, the pair giggled as Katie joked Ella may have a “designer vagina”.

Katie has raised eyebrows among followers after showcasing her noticeably slimmer appearance on social media, with many expressing concern for her well-being. Since her transformation, she’s been questioned about whether she’s been using Ozempic injections or similar treatments to achieve her appearance, which she has repeatedly denied.

The Mucky Mansion star stressed that her weight loss was achieved by natural methods, revealing she pays close attention to her diet and incorporates more physical activity into her routine.

However, some fans aren’t convinced and begged the self-confessed surgery addict to leave herself alone, insisting Katie is ‘naturally beautiful’ and ‘doesn’t need anything’.

Meghan Markle has been pressing ahead with her As Ever lifestyle brand while building her Instagram following – but one expert has a stark warning for her

Meghan Markle has left the Royal Family firmly behind her as she builds her business empire. Five years after she and Prince Harry dramatically quit as working royals, she is now growing her As Ever lifestyle brand as well as her Instagram following with a string of never-before-seen snaps and videos.

But despite the days of royal duties being long gone, Meghan does continue to use one thing from her former life – her royal title, the Duchess of Sussex. Not only that, she recently raised eyebrows when it emerged she had also used her HRH title on a note in a gift basket to a friend. According to royal expert Jennie Bond, Meghan has appeared to become a shrewd operator as she ploughs forward with her business, which will no doubt help to fund the Sussexes’ enviable lifestyle.

But writing in The Sun, the former BBC royal correspondent says it’s now time for her to stop using her royal title in her money-making ventures.

She explained: “To try to cling to the vestiges of her blink-of-an-eye time as a working royal is disingenuous. So, Meghan, how about dropping the Duchess nonsense and the HRH which you are no longer entitled to use? Be independent and successful.

“Make your As Ever brand bigger than ever on your own. You tried being part of the Royal Family and hated it. Time to move on, which, I think, is what this is all about.”

It comes as Meghan as made a huge U-turn in a new announcement about restocking her As Ever products, including her jam. In an Instagram post last week, she promised that her goods would be back in stock later this month and teased other new items, saying there would be “a few new things we can’t wait to show you”.

The about-turn came just hours after she was heard telling Beyoncé’s mother that she had decided to “just pause” until she was completely ready.

Meghan appeared on her own podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder, yesterday, recorded in May, telling Tina Knowles she feared annoying customers when the first batch of her jam and herbal teas sold out in less than an hour.

She said she wanted to wait until it was “completely stable and we have everything we need”. However, just hours later, Meghan shared a photo of jam-making preparations including bowls of strawberries, raspberries and blueberries, and freshly squeezed lemons, on her Instagram stories, writing: “June gloom?’ Not over here! Because this month your favourite products are back.”

Her official As Ever account also posted: “To all who’ve been wondering and waiting, thank you. Your favourites are returning, plus a few NEW things we can’t wait to show you. Coming this month…get excited!”

Meghan’s range includes flower sprinkles, which she used liberally during her Netflix lifestyle show, and raspberry spread, a crepe mix, wildflower honey and an assortment of herbal teas. She renamed her brand from American Riviera Orchard after running into trademark issues.

As the Palace prepares for this year’s Trooping the Colour celebrations, a source close to the Prince William has shared his verdict on reprising his vital role in the King’s birthday parade procession

With the Trooping the Colour celebrations right around the corner, Royal Family is busy preparing for the momentous day. As is tradition, senior royals are set to mount their horses and follow the King’s carriage in a procession from Buckingham Palace to Horse Guards Parade.

While King Charles will be reportedly riding in the carriage alongside his wife, Queen Camilla, Prince William will join Princess Anne and Prince Edward and follow the procession on horseback. As the Colonel of the Welsh Guards, William rode alongside other senior royals in the 2024 Trooping the Colour procession, as he sported the red uniform with a leek symbol on the neckline paired with a traditional bearskin cap adorned with the regiment’s white and green plume.

He also wore his Most Noble Order of the Garter Sash, Royal Air Force Pilot Wings and four medals: the Gold, Diamond, and Platinum Jubilee medals, plus the Coronation Medal.

And a source told the Sunday Times how the heir to the throne feels about taking part on horseback, saying: “He really enjoys it.”

William’s thoughts on riding ahorse during the Trooping the Colour procession comes after it was reported that the King would be riding in a carriage for a second year.

While Charles is not expected to ride at the parade again, this weekend’s event will be the first time that the Princess Royal has ridden in public since she was hospitalised following a suspected horse injury last year.

Anne, 74, plans to ride in the parade this year in her role as gold stick, the colonel of the Blues and Royals, alongside the Duke of Edinburgh as colonel of the Scots Guards and London Guards and Prince William.

King Charles rode in the parade for many years, both for his mother’s birthday celebrations and his own, but due to his ongoing battle with cancer, the 76-year-old monarch will reportedly again travel in a carriage as he also did last year.

A royal aide recently opened up about King Charles’s health, saying: “The thing you learn about this illness [cancer] is that you just manage it. And that’s what he does.” The aide continued: “Medical science has made incredible advances and I genuinely see no difference in him… As long as you just do what the doctors say, just live your life as normal as possible.”

The royal aide elaborated: “It’s no secret that he is still having treatment but because he is incredibly fit, he is just dealing with it all incredibly well. As everybody knows he is driven by duty, so he just gets on with it.”

The last time the King rode at the ceremony was in 2023, which was the first time a monarch had ridden in the parade since Queen Elizabeth did in 1986. After the late Queen’s trusty horse retired, she travelled in a carriage from 1987 until her final appearance in 2022, when she took the salute from the balcony of Buckingham Palace.

The Trooping the Colour event, which takes place every year in June, has been held to mark the sovereign’s official birthday since the accession of King George IV in 1820, except during the world wars and a national strike in 1955. In 2020, a scaled-back version of the celebration was held at Windsor Castle due to the Covid pandemic.

Eldest son Brooklyn Beckham was not present at dad David’s 50th birthday celebrations last month but didn’t turn down an invite to his brother-in-law’s bash in Hollywood

Brooklyn Beckham’s feud with his parents has hit a new low. David and Victoria’s estranged eldest child found time to join Nicola Peltz’s actor brother Will’s birthday fun this weekend having shunned dad David’s 50th bash last month.

As the sad rift in the Beckham clan continues to rumble on, Brooklyn was all smiles at his in-laws’ get together in Hollywood as he attended the flashy bash with wife Nicola. Will, 39, and Brooklyn continue to grow closer, and the wannabe chef even called him ‘bro’ in a tribute last week.

‌

Speculation of tension between Victoria and David and their son and his wife was initially sparked by an incident over a wedding dress and, three years on, LA-based Brooklyn and Nicola have now reportedly cut contact altogether. Brooklyn did not attend any of his father’s 50th and has failed to mark any of his close-knit family’s recent birthdays.

He didn’t hesitate in turning up at Will’s celebration, wearing black shirt and jeans for the party. Attempting to keep a low profile as he made his way in, Brooklyn showed off his tattoos as he covered his face. His brother Romeo Beckham’s split from his girlfriend won’t heal fractured family relations, friends believe.

Nicola’s friends previously blamed Romeo’s girlfriend Kim Turnbull for them not going to David’s 50th. Pals alleged it was because Brooklyn had a brief romantic liaison with her, which was denied by Beckham’s friends. But insiders say it would take a “small miracle at present” for peace to break out between Brooklyn and his parents David and Victoria.

Sources close to Nicola have previously insisted that as “an outsider coming into the Beckham family, she has helped Brooklyn see the emotional abuse and toxic behaviour within”. The claims – described as “patently untrue and ludicrous” by friends of David and Victoria – were the “nail in the coffin” of any future relationship, according to insiders.

New magazine report that Victoria is struggling with the situation because 26-year-old Brooklyn is “always going to be her baby”. Another source said: ”He’s her first-born and they’ve always had a wonderful relationship, she feels like Nicola has taken over and it’s really tough to deal with as a mother.

“David is frustrated with Brooklyn’s behaviour and is telling Victoria it’s unacceptable, but she’s just upset to feel like she’s losing her first baby. She’s very family-oriented so it’s a worry that Brooklyn and Nicola will start their own family and Victoria won’t have contact with her first grandchild – it’s a devastating thought.”

Katie Price has worried fans again after taking to the stage showing off her tiny frame and eye-popping bum lift. The mum-of-five, 46, has admitted to losing weight recently, saying it’s something she ‘wanted to do’.

However, in Saturday’s snaps, the Pricey, who has admitted she suffers from body dysmorphia, sparked concern among her legion of loyal fans when she rocked up to sing at a Pride event in Portsmouth, sporting a tiny black thong leotard, fishnet tights, ankle boots and a sparkly crown with ‘Pricey’ encrusted on it in pink diamonds as the glamour icon belted out her favourite songs.

Addressing the excitable crowd, who she told she was not wearing any underwear, she said: “I could have put some more clothes on couldn’t I! It’s bloody freezing out here. The next song is one of my favourite karaoke songs, you’ll all know it, it’s energetic but sing along.

She continued: “I’ve got no knickers on, so keep checking that nothing’s on show. I keep doing that in case a lip hangs out.”

After that bombshell, Katie also commented on her gravity-defying bottom, promising: “I’m going to get some more in it this week, I want a bigger, better butt.”

Katie spoke candidly about her weight loss last month after fans expressed their concern over her appearance. Admitting that she had lost weight because she wanted to, she said on Rob Moore’s Disruptors podcast: “Yes I’ve lost weight. Yes that what I’ve wanted to do, I’ve wanted to lose weight.”

Explaining why she felt she needed to drop a dress size, she continued: “Because the past three, four years ago when I broke my feet and I was in a wheelchair for 10 months because they said I’d never walk again, and obviously you put weight on being in a wheelchair.

“And then I did all the IVF stuff, that also puts on weight. So yeah I did put on weight and I hated it, I felt uncomfortable and it wasn’t me.

“Now I’ve gone back, now the IVF that’s all come out, and I’m more active because I could do more because of my feet, and I’m horse riding again, then naturally, I’m going back athletic again.”

Praising the star’s figure, Married At First Sight, Ella Morgan, was brought out on stage by Katie in Portsmouth as the two women insisted they ‘loved’ each other despite their connection to JJ Slater. Ella dated JJ, who is now Katie’s boyfriend, when the pair appeared on the Channel 4 show two years ago.

Complimenting each other’s bodies, including their bums and boobs, the pair giggled as Katie joked Ella may have a “designer vagina”.

Katie has raised eyebrows among followers after showcasing her noticeably slimmer appearance on social media, with many expressing concern for her well-being. Since her transformation, she’s been questioned about whether she’s been using Ozempic injections or similar treatments to achieve her appearance, which she has repeatedly denied.

The Mucky Mansion star stressed that her weight loss was achieved by natural methods, revealing she pays close attention to her diet and incorporates more physical activity into her routine.

However, some fans aren’t convinced and begged the self-confessed surgery addict to leave herself alone, insisting Katie is ‘naturally beautiful’ and ‘doesn’t need anything’.
