Former glamour model has signed a deal with American firm OhChat to revive her old alter-ego Jordan by creating an AI version of her – and it will be out tomorrow

Katie Price is officially bringing back her old alter-ego Jordan while becoming the first British celebrity to trademark an artificial intelligence version of herself. The 47-year-old reality TV star has signed a deal with American firm OhChat, which describes itself as “the leading platform to live out your uncensored dreams through AI-powered text, voice and images.”

As part of the agreement, the mum-of-five had to record 30 phrases to say so that the company could develop an AI version of her. Promotional videos shared on social media including YouTube and Instagram show Jordan – her former glamour modelling persona – saying in a voice similar to Katie’s: “It’s Jordan here. No more looking at those cheeky mags.”

After confirming that the launch date is tomorrow, June 9, she promises fans: “You can have me all for yourself.” The launch comes months after rumours began spreading that Katie was hoping to revive Jordan in a bid to emulate the early days of her career when she was best known for topless modelling.

Katie has now described the Jordan days as the best of her life and said that the AI deal is “a genius move” and can make her “feel like her again.”

She told The Sun: “Jordan’s back and now I’m in competition with Jordan. I love it and they’ve really captured my voice and personality – you see me moving and everything. It’s scarily weird but fascinating.”

Katie added: “I couldn’t be more excited to bring back the iconic Jordan, someone who I hold near and dear to my heart, and who my fans have been asking to see again. From my digital twin styling to its tone of voice, I wanted to be involved every step of the way to create the most authentic experience possible for my fans. Jordan is back, and my fans will absolutely love this.”

Meanwhile, a source told the newspaper that using AI allows Katie to “go back in time and bring back Jordan.” The insider explained that she owns copyright but the deal allows her image to be used for anything from TV shows to OnlyFans – but she doesn’t need to do it by herself, as it’s all done for her.

According to the source, Kate is also planning to do a photoshoot standing next to Jordan – and even do a TV special where she interviews her alter ego. Describing the new business venture, the insider said it is “all really exciting, if a bit surreal.”

We reported on rumours that Katie was looking to revive Jordan in a bid to regain her fortune back in September 2024. The former model was a prominent figure in the UK’s glamour scene in the 1990s, amassing an estimated £45million fortune. However, her career and finances have declined in recent years, with Katie being declared bankrupt twice.

At the time, sources said Katie believed that returning to her old-day job roots will bring in the money. A source told The Sun last year: “Katie is desperate to go back to the glory days and is convinced a return to her glamour modelling roots will make it happen.” However, the insider added: “But she doesn’t seem to understand that times have changed and there isn’t an audience for Jordan these days.”

In the 1990s and early 2000s, Katie appeared on the covers of various magazines, including Loaded, Maxim, FHM, and American Playboy. She “retired” the Jordan persona after meeting her first husband, Peter Andre, in the I’m a Celebrity jungle in 2004. Katie shifted her focus to launching novels, beauty products, fragrances and electricals. After three divorces, Katie has found it challenging to sustain a career that once saw everything she touched turn into gold.

In 2019, Katie was first declared bankrupt, owing creditors £3.2million, and then again last year due to an unpaid tax bill of £760,000. Her Mucky Mansion near Horsham, West Sussex, was repossessed after she failed to meet mortgage repayments, and she has been instructed to pay 40 per cent of her earnings to creditors.

Strictly Come Dancing star John Whaite took to social media with a candid update two years after revealing he had been diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

Former Strictly Come Dancing star John Whaite has candidly opened up on his health struggles in a new social media upload. The Bake Off star, 36, took to Instagram to reveal his thoughts on how his “superpower” can sometimes “make life confusing”.

John was diagnosed with ADHD in 2023 and said at the time he wished he had “known this sooner”. According to the NHS, ADHD – which stands for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder – is “a condition where the brain works differently to most people”.

The health service explains symptoms of the diagnosis can leave people having trouble with things like concentrating and sitting still. Now, in an honest video shared to his social media page, John admitted of his condition: “Sometimes it makes life almost unbearable. I was promised I’d get older and wiser, but sometimes I feel like I’m just an ageing fool.”

He said in the clip: “Oh can we just talk about the reality of life with ADHD because you know a lot of the time we think we have a superpower and sometimes it can serve us very well.

“It can serve us in so many ways where we can fixate on things and achieve things and create things and really do the best work or something imaginable but often that’s such a pyrrhic victory because we bleed ourselves dry or we exhaust ourselves in doing it or we abandon plans or friends or family and the reality of ADHD is that it can make us believe that what we’re doing in life sometimes is the exactly the righteous course of action for us.”

He went on: “It’s the right path in spite of what people who love us might say. And then when it gets to the point where we are our interest fizzles away, the reality kicks in and we see the truth and we see the situation for what it is.

“At that point we’re left kind of thinking f***, I’ve given up so much for this. I’ve ignored people who love me for this. And this is really exhausting because usually the older you get the wise you get. And while that can still be true in a situation where you have ADHD I think the reality.

“As you get older you don’t necessarily get wiser, you just get older and when you get older and you keep making silly little mistakes people become less tolerant of those mistakes because you’re meant to be older and wiser.”

He added that despite so much positivity surrounding the “superpower”, there is also a flip side that can be “crippling and so dehumanising and annoying”.

John candidly confessed: “If I could chose to live life neurotypically at this point in my life, I would jump at the chance and I know that’s not very pro ADHD it’s not very kind of holding up the flag our community but sometimes it’s just exhausting, it’s horrific and sometimes I f****** hate it.”

John has regularly been open about his condition since his diagnosis. He has also spoke out about his mental health battle, previously suffering from bulimia and suicidal thoughts.

He explained at how one point he was so low he decided to quit fame and move to Canada, where he volunteered on a farm in a bid to go back to basics and help him recover.

Speaking on Steph’s Packed Lunch in 2020, he said he also suffers from sexsomnia, a condition similar to night terrors and sleep walking, but instead he engages in sexual behaviour that he doesn’t remember when he’s awake.

“You have night terrors, I have night pleasures, because I have sexsomnia,” he said. “In the night, I’ll be fast asleep… My boyfriend wakes up and I’ll be fondling him. He’s having the time of his life and I’m fast asleep.”

He has also admitted he was left feeling “suicidal” in the past following his Bake Off win. “I kind of felt like I’d failed. And I felt suicidal. I really really did think I was going to end it,” John explained.

Age-defying Amanda Holden has wowed fans again with her latest bikini pics as she strutted her stuff in Majorca – days after receiving more Ofcom complaints

Amanda Holden sent fans wild as she stripped down to a tiny pink bikini in her latest social media video. The 54-year-old Britain’s Got Talent judge donned matching pink heels to strut around a swimming pool on the Spanish holiday island of Majorca.

Looking more like she was walking down a catwalk, the age-defying broadcaster and actress looked tanned and toned as her long blonde hair billowed behind her in the short clip, as Calvin Harris’ latest track Blessings played over the top.

In the caption, Amanda revealed she was in Majorca to film an ad campaign for Revive Collagen. She wrote: “Shooting a new campaign for @revivecollagen #mallorca,” before revealing her bikini was by swimwear brand Melissa Odabash, which is loved by celebrities.

And fans couldn’t quite believe what they were seeing, as one wrote in the comments: “Imagine being in your 50’s and looking that good in a bikini,” as another replied: “Right?” As many more posted heart and flame emojis, a third said: “Looking fabulous!!!” A fourth declared her “perfection”, as a fifth commented “what a body.” A sixth joked: “Look amazing, wish I could walk in those shoes!”

Her celebrity pals were equally in awe. Ex-EastEnders’ star Jo Joyner wrote: “You’re ridiculously hot” followed by a flame emoji. “There she is,” said former The Only Way Is Essex star Sam Faiers. Vicky Pattinson simply wrote: “AMANDA!!!!” with four flame emojis. While her Heart FM co-star, former Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts commented: “Jheeez.”

It comes days after Amanda went ‘naked’ during her radio show following yet more Ofcom complaints about her outfits on Britain’s Got Talent. Her appearance even made her co-host Jamie Theakston do a double take.

As she sat in her DJ chair on Thursday morning, Amanda said on air: “Good morning, Mr Theakston. It is 6.30am and I’ve just caught myself on the camera and don’t you think I look naked this morning? Sat behind here?” Jamie replied: “Do you know what… you are wearing clothes, aren’t you?”

But though it looked like she might not be, Amanda was in fact just wearing a pink strapless dress which wasn’t visible behind her monitor. Joking about her choice of outfit for the day, Amanda said: “I just looked [at myself] and went, ‘What? Have I forgotten to put my clothes on?'”

Amanda’s BGT finale dress, which looked almost bridal in a white silk fabric with a low cut front, wasn’t a hit with some viewers at home who complained that both her and co-star Alesha Dixon’s frocks were “too revealing for a family show”. Ofcom revealed they’d received 72 complaints in total.

But thought she is regularly under fire for her risque outfits, Amanda has vowed to never tone down her fashion choices. In July 2017, Amanda wore a plunging see-through Julien Macdonald dress, which went on to be the most complained about TV moment of the year.

She’s previously revealed how all her outfits are checked before she goes on stage and joked there’s an even a ‘t*t committee’ who tell her whether she’s alright to wear a dress or not.

“There’s a whole body of people that knock on my door and come and stare at my chest before we go on air,” she shared. “There’s a t*t committee. There are so many brilliant people, they come down, knock on the door and there’s the lady, who’s the producer, who says, ‘Mandy, it looks great’.”

In another interview, Amanda told Closer magazine: “I’m always asked about the Ofcom complaints, but every outfit on the show is checked before I leave my dressing room, so I’m never worried. I think people should have fun with fashion!”

On her most complained about dress, she added: “It’s all quite laughable, but all everyone seems to talk about. It’s been called another national ­crisis – but, oh no, I will not be covered up.”

Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo have shared an emotional career move as they rebrand their famous podcast from NewlyWeds to NearlyParents, just days after announcing pregnancy

Made In Chelsea’s Jamie Laing and Sophie Habboo have announced they will be rebranding their podcast in an emotional video after announcing their pregnancy earlier in the week. Jamie, 36, and Sophie, 30, shared the news about their pregnancy in a sweet social media post on Tuesday.

The couple started their first podcast NearlyWeds when they were planning their wedding in 2022. The podcast then evolved to NewlyWeds in 2023 before they announced they were taking a break in May 2025.

After leaving fans in suspense for the past few weeks, they have now announced their latest rebrand. NewlyParents is being described as their ‘new chapter’ and fans don’t have to wait long as the podcast will be back on Monday, 9 June.

To announce their new career move, the reality favourites shared an emotional video where they are seen looking back at some of the most memorable moments from their relationship. Including reflecting on their Made In Chelsea days, and reading their wedding speeches.

Fans were delighted with the news as one person commented: “I am so excited for this you have no idea, you guys are going to be the best parents. I can’t wait to come along on your journey”, while another said: “Huge congratulations. This is beautiful”.

The couple, who have also recently started working together on BBC Radio 1, shared their pregnancy news with an emotional video where they see their baby on an ultrasound scan. They captioned the video with a simple red heart.

As the baby pops up on the screen in the clip, Jamie excitedly says: “Are you kidding me”. Jamie pans the camera around the room onto Sophie, who has the biggest smile on her face as the couple hears the baby’s heartbeat.

Sophie has replaced Vick Hope on the Going Home show, which runs from Monday to Thursday between 3.30 pm and 6 pm. Vick, who is expecting her first child with husband Calvin Harris, has left the station to go on maternity leave.

Jamie shared the news on his Instagram account, joking about them being the first married couple presenting. He said: “I’m so excited to be joining the Radio 1 family… Turns out we’re the first ever Married couple to do it together, soooo I’m not too sure if that’s a good thing or bad thing – hopefully we don’t argue on the Radio! Get ready for the chaos – Catch you on Monday.”

Their journey began on the reality series Made in Chelsea, where the public was able to watch their love blossom. After dating for several years, Jamie got down on one knee at the Rosewood London hotel in December 2021, where he and Sophie shared their first ever date, and popped the question.

The couple are also currently renovating their first home together in London. They are once again allowing fans to follow their journey through their vlogs, which they upload to YouTube.
