Katie Price has ended months of speculation over the state of her marriage to cage fighter Alex Reid by releasing a lengthy statement confirming their relationship is over.

A 600 word statement was released via Katie’s management last night in which the former glamour model referred to her 11-month long marriage to Reid as a “mistake” and something she rushed into.

The couple got together after being introduced at Katie Price’s pal Michelle Heaton’s Birthday party, just weeks after the mother of three split from her first husband Peter Andre. The reality TV star quickly moved her new man into the family home.

After just 9 months of dating, Katie and Alex wed in a quickie Las Vegas ceremony. The couple were due to celebrate their first wedding anniversary on February 2nd.

In the official statement, the 32 year old blames her estranged husband’s desire to promote himself in the public eye for the breakdown of their marriage saying it changed the dynamic of their relationship. The model also alluded to the couple’s failed attempts to conceive a baby via IVF which was reported to have put a strain on the marriage.

The cage fighter was pictured looking visibly upset as he moved out of the Surrey mansion he had shared with Katie, also known as Jordan. Alex was then seen moving back into his parents’ family home.

Writing on her Twitter blog this morning, the reality TV star thanked her fans for their support during this “sad time” but refused to comment any further.

Aussie singer Peter Andre has admitted that he regrets vowing to stay celibate until his divorce from Katie Price is confirmed.

Andre was finding it a struggle staying faithful and wishes he never made the promise of not to have sex with anyone else as long as he was still married to estranged wife Jordan (Katie Price).

Talking about his sex life after splitting from the glamour Jordan, Pete said: “I haven’t done a thing.”

“I made this celibacy vow, kicking myself a bit for it now. But I’ve said what I’m going to do and I’m going to do it.”

Meanwhile, mum-of-three Katie has made no secret of her steamy new relationship with cage fighter Alex Reid, 34 who were being filmed by a Living TV documentary crew as they kissed and cuddled in the park in Brighton in broad daylight with Harvey, seven, four-year-old Junior and Princess Powerpuff, two.

Peter Andre opened his heart in a magazine interview this week, revealing he might have taken his glamour model wife back, had it not been for her raunchy antics. Since their high profile split in May Katie Price, aka Jordan, has consistently hit the headlines for her wild behaviour, much to the dismay of her estranged husband.

Speaking to New magazine, where Peter also writes a weekly column, the Aussie singer said he considered giving his marriage a second chance for the sake of the couple’s three children. However Katie’s behaviour has convinced him he made the right decision in leaving her saying “it had to be done.”

Immediately following the split Katie jetted off to Ibiza where she partied with a bevy of male models. She then hooked up with cage fighter Alex Reid and was spotted on wild nights out with the muscular hunk. After confirming him as her new boyfriend the pair enjoyed a sun soaked holiday where 31-year-old Katie was snapped cavorting topless with the martial arts expert. On Sunday night she even went as far as being photographed wearing a diamond ring on her engagement finger.

36-year old Peter is riding high at the moment as his debut single “Behind Closed Doors” from his new album is expected to hit the number one spot. He’s also in talks with the Jackson family to organise a undisclosed tribute to the late Michael Jackson. Andre’s work is keeping him busy and helping him to re-build his life post Jordan. He revealed he’s now “turned the corner” and is feeling more positive. His main regret is that “things could have been different” if Katie had curbed her erratic behaviour.
