Junior and Princess Andre broke down in tears as they reflected on their turbulent childhood. 

The siblings, who are the children of Katie Price and Peter Andre, appeared on their mother’s new documentary Katie Price: Nothing To Hide, where they looked back at Katie’s public breakdown in the late 2010s.

Katie, 48, went off the rails following the breakdown of her marriage to third husband Kieran Hayler, spiralling into depression and developing a cocaine addiction. 

At the time Junior and Princess were just 13 and 10 respectively and began to start fending for themselves and their younger siblings Jett and Bunny, then four and three. 

Reflecting on the chaotic years, Junior confessed: ‘That was probably the most difficult time of my life, our lives’, as Princess agreed: ‘I didn’t know what was going on and I couldn’t talk to mum about it because she wasn’t there.’ 

Junior, now 21, continued: ‘And when she was there, she wasn’t there, and we as siblings just kind of looked after each other. 

‘I remember me trying to figure out if food was microwavable to feed us for dinner.’ 

At the time Junior and Princess were just 13 and 10 respectively and began to start fending for themselves and their younger siblings Jett and Bunny, then four and three (pictured in 2017)

Recalling one painful memory, Princess shared: ‘She’d give me a blanket and spray her perfume on it and that was my attachment to her. 

‘I used to go home and feel so lonely I would just cuddle the blanket and cry.’ 

Junior added: ‘I missed her so much.’ 

Thinking back to one vivid memory, he continued: ‘I was in her bed waiting for her to come back and I woke up 3.30am to loud noises. 

‘She came in the room, I’ll never forget the look on her face. She was obviously on stuff and it scared me, I’d never seen my mum like this. 

‘That’s when I started seeing the same pattern and her falling down the same hole. When she wasn’t in the right headspace she really wasn’t and she wasn’t being a mum. 

‘The mum that I knew from when I was a little boy, the amount of love she gave me was so immense, that’s what I missed so much. 

‘Mum was on drugs and she couldn’t look after us and that was the reality of it. 

‘Then I got fed up and clocked this was a very unhealthful environment and I needed to get out.’ 

At the age of 14, Junior then left the family home to live with dad Peter, while Princess decided to stay, explaining: ‘I always wanted to be there for her but she didn’t understand that at the time because she was so hooked up in her own problems.’ 

Junior continued: ‘Thank god that my dad was stable because that’s the house that I went to and gained my sanity back while I was wishing and hoping that my mum would come back and turn herself around. 

‘It made me feel like I wasn’t good enough because she wasn’t fixing herself for me, she wasn’t thinking herself for us – why?’ 

Things came to a head when Katie, who was battling suicidal thoughts, flipped her car while driving under the influence in the early hours of the morning in September 2021. 

Discussing the chaotic few years in the lead up to the crash, Katie shared: ‘W hen I hear how the kids saw it, it breaks my heart. ‘It must have been horrible for them’

Discussing the chaotic few years in the lead up to the crash, Katie shared: ‘When I hear how the kids saw it, it breaks my heart. 

‘They were still always looked after by people around me, but that’s not good enough, kids need their mum. 

‘They need their mum’s love and their mum’s hugs. I thought I was giving that but obviously I wasn’t. 

‘It must have been horrible for them and I’m just sorry that I put them through that. 

‘I thought I was doing the best I could with them but what could I have done, I was unwell. I couldn’t even look after myself. I didn’t want to be here, I wanted to die.’ 

Following the crash, Katie pleaded guilty to drink-driving, driving while disqualified and driving without insurance.

She was handed a 16-week suspended sentence and a two year driving ban, as well as a court mandated stay in rehab, where she received a diagnosis of ADHD. 

‘I’m just relieved she’s still here,’ Junior mused. ‘I think trying to end your life must wake you up. She helped herself and she got off the drugs. 

‘I feel a duty of care to her, she’s such a special gem, she’s my mum and I’ve only got one. 

‘I feel like I’ve got my mum back. My mum knows she’s crazy but we love her for it and we’ll always be there for her.’

He added that his one hope for the future was that Katie would stop relying on the validation of men. 

Junior explained: ‘I wish she finds more comfort within herself. I want her to start enjoying her own company more.’ 

Discussing his reaction to the news Katie married Lee Andrews in Dubai after days of knowing him, Junior sighed: ‘This is the most silliest, stupidest thing. 

‘Marrying a guy you don’t even know, this just sums it up, this is my mum, this is what she does.’ 

Katie, 48, went off the rails following the breakdown of her marriage to third husband Kieran Hayler , spiralling into depression and developing a cocaine addiction (pictured in 2014 also with eldest son Harvey) 

During filming, it emerged that Katie had met and married her fourth husband – so-called businessman Lee Andrews  who was recently released from Dubai’s notorious Al-Awir prison

In the documentary, Katie had described her ideal man, saying they had to be older, able to treat her, someone who won’t leech on her and isn’t looking for fame. 

During filming, it emerged that Katie had met and married her fourth husband – so-called businessman Lee. 

Lee has been accused by multiple exes of conning them, most recently being accused of taking £5,000 from a ‘vulnerable woman’ in another alleged scam.

He has denied being involved in any cons. 

Lee then set the internet alight after he seemingly disappeared into thin air, after Katie initially claimed he had been kidnapped. It then emerged Lee was being held at Dubai’s notorious Al-Awir prison.

Despite mounting evidence that fraud was the cause for his arrest, self-proclaimed ‘millionaire’ Lee insisted that he was imprisoned on suspicion of espionage ‘and held in a state security building’ before being taken to prison over ‘a civil case in Dubai’.

In an Instagram post shared in the early hours of Wednesday, Lee continued to insist there is ‘not one shred of evidence’ that he has been charged with fraud, hitting out at his ex fiancée Alana for spreading the story.

He claimed he was ‘taken to the Qatar border by the men, at gunpoint and was captured by men with assault rifles’ before adding: ‘They did slap me round a little bit, little s***s.’

Lee is Katie’s fourth husband. She was first married to Peter Andre for three years until 2009. 

Nine months later she tied the knot again with cage fighter Alex Reid, who also appeared on the documentary and expressed his distaste at Katie publicly discussing their sex life in interviews. 

They separated in January 2011 and exactly two years she wed Kieran Hayler, the father of her youngest children. They split in 2018 after he admitted to being unfaithful multiple times throughout their marriage.

The White Horse in Ferryhill welcomed customers back on July 3, after extensive work, which included painting the outside white, upgrading the beer garden and installing new draft lines.

The pub, on 23 Market Street, plans to host live music, entertainment, live sport, pool and darts.

The first day proved to be a huge success, with crowds turning out to support the new landlords.

The venue thanked customers in a Facebook post, saying: “Well, Ferryhill… we’re speechless.

“Our grand opening yesterday was absolutely incredible, and we couldn’t have done it without every single one of you.

“From the moment we opened our doors until the moment we closed, the atmosphere was amazing. Seeing so many of you come along to support us meant the world, and we can’t thank you enough for making our first day so special.

“Whether you’re visiting for the first time or coming back for more, we’ll be ready with a warm welcome.

“Thank you, Ferryhill – your support means everything to us. See you soon!”

“When people find out they can fire the sofa out in the alleyway and it is collected in a day or two, I think it really defeats the purpose.”

A DUP Councillor has lambasted bulky waste collections provided by Belfast City Council for large items, suggesting that it has become easier and quicker to get rid of items by flytipping them, rather than using the council service.

At the latest meeting of the council’s People and Communities Committee DUP Councillor Ruth Brooks said: “The bulky waste collections appear to be taking too long. We are facing an uphill battle trying to get bulky waste items that have been flytipped and left in alleyways, right across the east of the city, and no doubt in other people’s areas.

“If people are booking in for a bulky waste collection, and they are being told it will be two or two and half weeks, and they find out they can fire the sofa out in the alleyway and it is collected in a day or two, I think it really defeats the purpose.”

She said: “I received an update from officers, just to say there would be an additional weekly collection on a Tuesday. We do bulky waste collections on a Friday, but I think we just need to drill down in relation to resources.

“Why is it taking so long? Is it because we have become a lot more reactive, rather than being proactive? I have had constituents get in touch saying they have been told a date, then they left the items out, but it hasn’t been lifted because it hasn’t been sitting right on the pavement, rather on the edge of their driveway. People don’t want to block pavements unnecessarily.”

She asked for a report back from officials to ensure “providing a service that is fit for the constituents who are paying rates.”

SDLP Councillor Séamas de Faoite also asked for an officer report on the council’s policy on refuse bags being left on the street in the city centre, and powers the council has to stop private waste providers leaving refuse bags on the street in the city centre and arterial routes.

Belfast City Council provides a free bulky waste collection service for households only in the council area. They do not collect items from businesses. Households can only make one request at a time, and the council says it will cancel any duplicate or multiple requests.

The council collects bedroom furniture, kitchen appliances, living room items, small electrical appliances and TVs, and other items. If the council can’t collect the item, residents are advised they may be able to dispose it at a city recycling centre or civic amenity site.

The council website states: “Leave your items where your general waste bin is picked up by the lorry. We will not go into your property. This could be at the front of your house, on the kerb side of your house, on the kerb, on the rear of your house in an open space where the vehicular access is at the back, or at the end of an entry, outside any entry gates.”

The council stresses it will not collect any items in an entry or behind entry gates. It adds it will not collect heavy, waterlogged items.

The service runs Monday to Friday, not on bank or public holidays. Residents can request a collection up to three months in advance.

It was prototypical Nigel Farage. A cryptic announcement that a statement is about to be made, a wholesale hijacking of the news agenda hinting at a “will he won’t he?” state of affairs, followed by a blistering attack on “the establishment” (or, at least, Farage’s conception of the establishment), and a big finish – he is resigning as MP for Clacton, therefore triggering a by-election – in which he will stand once more (though it appears the other main parties will not).

This news does rather bury the bigger story, which most would agree is actually the allegations being made about his finances; and particularly that he accepted gifts worth millions from businessmen.

It’s worth working through the various claims that he made about rules he may or may not have broken, to see how they stack up – before thinking about how the by-election itself might play out.

Claim 1: ‘I have not broken the law in any way at all’

This is accurate. The main investigation Farage currently faces is from the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards over a £5m gift he received from businessman Christopher Harborne. Farage did also seem to intimate that financial gifts made to him by George Cottrell, as reported in the Sunday Times, had triggered a second investigation. He insisted several times: “I have done nothing wrong.”

But it should be very clear – the investigation over the £5m gift from Harbourne was never a criminal matter. It is and always was a matter of whether the House of Commons Code of Conduct had been breached. He has not broken the law and no one is accusing him of doing so. But he may have broken the code of conduct for a man in his position.

The Labour Party has referred elements of the Cottrell case to the Electoral Commission (though this would be a civil, not criminal, matter).

Claim 2: ‘It was given to me as a gift, I can do with that money exactly as I wish’

This too, is correct. The Code of Conduct is very clear that there is (currently) nothing particularly wrong with holding outside interests or earnings – only that all these things must be declared. And many MPs have held significant outside interests and earnings and have received quite significant gifts in the past (you may remember Keir Starmer’s glasses).

There are no qualitative judgements made about what one does with this money, just that it is declared. Looking at the Register of Members’ Interests, you find any number of politicians’ gifts, with varying degrees of information about what the gift was for. Farage could very simply have written “£5m; Christopher Harborne; Security”. If that was too intrusive, he may even have been able to write “£5m; Christopher Harborne; Gift”.

The problem with the Harborne donation, as it relates to the Code of Conduct, is not – and never has been – about what is what for. It is about whether it should have been declared.

It is worth remembering that if Farage has indeed broken the MPs code of conduct, that one punishment is suspension from parliament. If that suspension is greater than ten days, then a recall petition can be called (which could lead to a by-election).

One view is, then, that Farage is getting ahead of a decision he thinks isn’t going to go his way and pre-empting the inevitable. There is, however, an added wrinkle that these investigations are now on hold. If he wins the by-election, is recalled to parliament as an MP, the investigation is then unpaused. It’s not beyond the realm of possibility, then, that we could be looking at two by-elections in one year in Clacton.

Claim 3: ‘The establishment has decided that they can’t beat us fairly, so they have chosen to use foul means’

Well, okay – but scrutiny follows success. And, indeed, this has been the problem for Farage and Reform. With the Tories on life support, and Labour barely faring better, over the past year they have become an established (and, whisper it, establishment) party, just look at all the former Conservatives they have among their ranks. To many, they are the government in waiting.

One might say, then, that Farage is a victim of this success. But he isn’t, he’s a victim of a laissez-faire attitude to transparency. When it comes to regulating standards – and this is particularly true of money in politics – the UK doesn’t ask much of our politicians. Compared with other countries it is incredibly permissive. The one thing that politicians are asked to be is open and honest about who is funding them and follow the rules for disclosure.

There have been questions asked again and again about Reform’s opaque financial arrangements. The easiest way to address these is to just be open and honest, and follow the spirit as well as the letter of the law. Transparency is not just an oversight tool for regulators, pen pushers and bureaucrats (as I suspect they view it) but the very tool politicians can use to cut difficult questions off at the pass with.

Claim 4: ‘This will be a people versus the establishment by-election’

Well, only if other parties make it one. I thought an analogy that BBC political editor Chris Mason drew after the speech was important – that of former Conservative MP David Davis. In 2008 he resigned as an MP to bring forth debate on what he thought were erosions of civil liberties by the then Labour government. However, as Mason outlined, neither the Liberal Democrats or Labour stood candidates because “they didn’t want to play into the self-delivery of theatre, as they saw it, that Davis chose to engineer”.

The same might be true here. There’s no reason that any party necessarily has to fight this by-election. They might see it as a similar piece of political theatre (from admittedly a master of the form) and prefer to let Farage duke it out with Rupert Lowe, Count Binface and the guy dressed as a fox from the Makerfield by-election.

Given that this might not be the only Clacton by-election fought this year, better – they might think – to keep their powder dry for a second when the facts of the various allegations swirling around Farage’s various financial arrangements may become clear. One thing is for sure: if we thought Makerfield was one of the most consequential by-elections in recent history, we haven’t seen anything yet.

A volunteer coastguard allegedly mowed down his live-in partner and then attempted to stage a road collision to make it appear that she had committed suicide, a court heard.

‘Controlling and coercive’ Rowan Sutton ran over Aimee Pike in the dark in the countryside and then transported her body to another place in a second car, a jury was told.

A court heard Sutton, 31, took her to a main road and placed her body on a low wall while he waited for a van to pass so that he could fake her suicide at 4am.

Prosecutor James Dawes KC said Sutton filmed a passing bakery van and then placed her body on the road, conducting a fake one-way conversation with Ms Pike in which he begged her ‘don’t do it, stay there’ and shouting ‘Aimee’ as the van went by.

Plymouth Crown Court heard Sutton made it look ‘like a car crash’.

The jury heard burly Sutton and his alleged victim were splitting up after five years together but Sutton feared he would lose access to their child.

Mr Dawes told the jury that Sutton then spread entirely false rumours that Ms Pike, 22, was suicidal.

He said Sutton told her family members and his coastguard colleagues that she was erratic, suffering with her mental health and suicidal.

The jury was told Rowan Sutton, pictured, was prone to ’bouts of intense anger’ and was controlling and coercive towards Aimee Pike

Rowan Sutton told coastguard colleagues Aimee Pike was erratic, suffering with her mental health and suicidal, the court heard

Mr Dawes said: ‘That’s because he planned to fake her suicide but in fact he killed her and made it look like suicide.

‘Around this time the defendant began to plan a way in which he could continue to have exclusive access (to his child) and that meant getting rid of Aimee.’

The court heard that despite separating four weeks before Ms Pike died, the couple still lived in the same flat together at West Charleton, near Kingsbridge, Devon.

The jury was told Sutton was prone to ’bouts of intense anger’ and was controlling and coercive towards Aimee.

The jury also heard that three weeks before she died and a week after they split up, Sutton allegedly sexually assaulted Aimee as she slept naked in bed and filmed the attack.

Mr Dawes said Ms Pike sometimes stayed in Sutton’s caravan in the nearby village of Loddiswell – where he installed a secret camera in a clock to record her.

Ms Pike died in the small hours of April 23, 2025, after Sutton drove her six miles to the caravan in his Land Rover, where she planned to spend the night alone.

The court was told that after dropping her off, Sutton drove home but parked in a village hall car park out of sight of a CCTV camera.

Once the street lights went out two-and-a-half hours later, Sutton went back to his Land Rover and drove towards the caravan – taking a route to avoid any cameras ‘in a sneaky way’.

The jury were told he left his phone at home to give the impression that he had not gone out, and had removed a dashcam from the Land Rover.

Mr Dawes said: ‘He went there not to check on Aimee but to murder her. The injuries to Aimee would suggest he ran her down in that Land Rover in the darkness in the countryside somewhere. There were no witnesses to this killing.’

The prosecutor said Sutton then moved the body after killing her, but only the defendant knows where he stored her body before transporting her in his Skoda car to the main A379 Embankment Road at New Bridge, Kingsbridge.

Mr Dawes said: ‘The prosecution case is that this relationship was characterised by controlling and coercive behaviour.’

Advertisement

He said both Sutton and his alleged victim were looking for other relationships after their separation, and Sutton had been contacting people ‘for sexual reasons’.

Sutton denies murdering Ms Pike and sexually assaulting her three weeks earlier.

On Wednesday the jury will visit the scene with the judge and legal teams.

The trial continues.

Updated: 21:27 BST, 7 July 2026

Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin Tyler Robinson was seen walking in a limp in security footage played in court at his pre trial hearing on Tuesday. 

Earlier today, the defense was dealt a massive blow after the judge ruled prosecutors could play the never-before-seen footage of his movements on the day Kirk was killed.

After months of back-and-forth over the footage, Judge Tony Graf allowed video of Robinson driving into a parking garage, walking away, returning, and leaving to be played in court today.

Former Utah State Bureau of Investigation agent David Hull described the footage as it was played to court, and revealed that Robinson spoke with members of Kirk’s group, Turning Point USA, and got Chick-fil-A before the shooting.

Robinson’s parents appeared to smile as they arrived for the second day of his key evidence hearing, where prosecutors are expected to play testimony from his transgender lover.

Kirk’s parents, Robert and Kathryn Kirk, looked somber as they arrived at the Utah courthouse on Tuesday, while his widow Erika quietly entered through a private entrance after a dramatic first day in court.

Robinson, 23, is accused of fatally shooting Kirk as the conservative firebrand spoke in front of thousands of people at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025.

Prosecutors are expected to play bombshell testimony from Robinson’s transgender lover, Lance Twiggs, who goes by Luna, today.

Tyler Robinson, 23, is the man accused of shooting Charlie Kirk on September 10, 2025, in front of thousands of students at Utah Valley University.

Prosecutors say he confessed in a message to his transgender partner, writing that he pulled the trigger because he had ‘had enough of [Kirk’s] hatred.’

Growing up in a Utah suburb, Robinson appeared destined for a bright future: he was raised in a close-knit conservative family, was a star student and earned a 4.0 GPA.

ANL is the third publisher to face legal action from the duke, after he previously sued News Group Newspapers (NGN), publisher of The Sun and the now-defunct News of the World, and Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN), which published The Mirror, over alleged unlawful information gathering.

In a joint statement after the ruling, Harry and Lady Lawrence said the ruling was a “complete reversal of the position which previous judges have taken in relation to the hacking claims” brought against News Group Newspapers, publisher of The Sun and the defunct News of the World, and Mirror Group Newspapers, publisher of the Mirror.
