Katie's new boyfriend pictured far left in full drag as part of her book promotion

Katie Price has just launched her new book in typical over-the-top fashion with a gob-smacking stunt. Just weeks after the rumours emerged about new boyfriend Alex Reid’s penchant for wearing lady’s clothes emerged, instead of brushing the whole episode under the carpet, Katie decided to draw further attention to the matter.

Along with 3 other male victims rounded up by the glamour model, the gaggle of “ladies” posed for photographs as part of the promotion for Katie’s style book. Yes you heard right, a style book…

And the madness didn’t stop there. The mum-of-three also insisted that her new squeeze wore a copycat outfit of her princess warrior costume which she was pictured wearing in Ibiza shortly after the news of her split from Peter Andre emerged. The outrageous press call also falls on a pretty significant date as Katie is due to have her divorce from Pete finalised on the very same day.

In an interview with Graham Norton earlier this week Katie hinted at her plans for a spectacular press launch for her new book, and she wasn’t joking. She also spoke openly about her cage fighter boyfriend’s fondness for female clothing and her relationship with Alex’s alter ego, Roxanne. The 31-year-old said she doesn’t have a problem with her new lover’s cross-dressing as she’s very open-minded.

New show for Peter Andre launches tonight

The first episode of Peter Andre’s brand new ITV2 series, Andre: The Next Chapter, is due to air tonight. Fans will see the revived pop star reveal his anger against his estranged wife, Katie Price for the first time during tonight’s opening episode. The ex-glamour model’s rival show, What Katie Did Next, has been running on the same channel for the past few weeks, however many are predicting that Andre will pull in bigger viewing figures than his ex.

In the first episode showing tonight at 9pm on ITV2, Andre will be seen add-libbing some angry lyrics directed at his Katie after she sends him a text which winds him up. The Aussie singer sings “It’s a piece of s**t, it’s a piece of s**t” venting his frustration over and argument about transport for their children.

At the press launch for the new series, Andre also revealed that he’s about to take legal action against his former wife over remarks she made in a magazine interview. The mother of three alleged that Peter was being disingenuous when he wrote a song entitled, Unconditional, dedicated to her partially blind son Harvey as she claimed he chose to only see Harvey occasionally which didn’t amount to unconditional love in her eyes.

Peter hit back saying “more than anything that’s been said, that has p***ed me off.” Adding that it was a “cheap shot” and be would be taking matters further.

Maybe Katie Price should employ a chauffeur??

Katie Price is known for her love of fast cars and recently, even faster men, so when she was snapped driving her luxury white Range Rover with a pink towel covering her face, it certainly raised a few safety issues. It appears that the high profile celeb has suddenly turned camera shy and is now doing everything she can to conceal herself from the preying paparazzi.

Given the 31-year-old has now developed a penchant for driving partially blindfolded in an attempt to hide from the snappers, maybe she should employ the services of a chauffeur? This way she can conceal herself under a towel, Gucci handbag or designer jumper anytime she likes without endangering the safety of the waiting photographers, but that might be beside the point.

Katie Price, aka Jordan, can certainly afford a chauffeur after she was granted a quickie divorce this week from Aussie singer, Peter Andre. Her £28 million fortune will remain intact as her ex-husband will only be entitled to a 50% share of the money they earned during their marriage. This figure is rumoured to be £12 million with each of them walking away with £6million a piece.

Since her divorce was granted in a 1 minute high court ruling this week, OK Magazine have revealed that Katie Price will throw a lavish divorce party to celebrate her new freedom. The celeb mag plans to do a full spread of the “star studded” event however the news hasn’t been warmly received by everyone. Some journalists have accused the mother of three of sinking to a new low with her latest stunt, but it seems the determined celeb is set on the idea.

Today one of the U.K’s most high profile couples will officially start the legal proceedings to end their marriage. Katie Price and Peter Andre’s divorce will be subject to an initial hearing in London’s High Court under the Family Division, neither are due to appear in court.

Unusually the couple have applied for a cross decrees signalling that both parties have petitioned for a divorce. This only occurs when both sides are unwilling to take the blame for the breakdown of the marriage meaning that neither party will have to give a reason for their involvement in the split. The marriage will be brought to end on the grounds that it is irretrievably broken down.

The couple only announced their separation 4 months ago but details of the divorce appear to have been resolved quickly. For once, this celebrity divorce doesn’t seem to hinge on money. Pete will walk away with £6 million, a 50% split from the £12 million they earned during their marriage. He has not asked for a slice of Katie’s £28 million fortune which she amassed prior to their marriage.

The proposed terms of the divorce state that the couple are applying for joint custody of their two children, two-year-old Princess and 4 year-old Junior who stared school this week. The final details of the custody arrangements are yet to be finalised. Diving the couple’s properties appears to have been a far simple process as their former martial home in Surrey, estimated to be worth £3 million, was bought in Katie’s name, whereas Pete owns a £2 million luxury home in Cyprus.

This initial court hearing is a significant step in the legal divorce proceedings. Katie and Peter will now a 6 weeks cooling-off period, starting from today, to allow both parties to think over their decision. If neither have changed their mind after the 6 weeks is up, the decree absolute, which will officially dissolve the marriage, can be signed.
