Katie Price, a mother-of-five, has urged fans to stop using the habit to protect their health. She also shared a warning to her followers.
Katie Price has issued a stark warning after sharing the dangers of vaping. The former glamour model, 47, whose mum, Amy, 73, is battling Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), posted a sobering message on Instagram as she admitted she needed to start looking after her health.
Posting a shocking X-ray of a diseased lung, the mum-of-five – who was spotted vaping on a train last year – wrote: “Vaping has officially been linked to rare and irreversible lung disease”. She then added: “I have to stop”.
Katie, sadly, has a history of lung disease in her family after her mum, Amy, was diagnosed with IPF before having a lung transplant in 2022.

According to the NHS, Amy’s condition causes the lungs to become scarred and breathing to become increasingly difficult. Doctors previously told her that her life expectancy was up to five years.
Speaking on her podcast, The Katie Price Show, earlier this year, which she hosts with her sister Sophie, Katie, admitted that her mum has lost her independence.
She said, “I do feel for you, mum, because people have to understand what my mother has gone through,” when she spoke to Amy on the podcast.
Her brain is still on, and she’s just that. She is frustrated because she is unable to perform the tasks she once did.
Citing an example, Katie informed listeners that Amy would be joining her at this year’s Isle of Wight Festival.
She continued, “I am a patient person, but when my mother teases me and says, “Let’s go look at the Isle of Wight, shall I take my walker or wheelchair”?, I’m like, “No, we’re taking your wheelchair because I’m not taking an hour.”
Amy responded, “I’m supposed to walk to help myself, so it’s not doing me any good.”
A source told Closer magazine in September that Katie needed a “vice” because she could never live or exist without one, and it’s always as addiction. She currently smokes and vaping, but it’s never healthy. Both her family worries that things could escalate if she doesn’t get some help from her, and both are driven by her addictive nature.
Katie recently made a worrying health announcement when she revealed that she had already spent time in a hospital. She added that she might need to return home soon.
In a message update shared via Snapchat, the OnlyFans star said she had to get some of the stitches she received after accidentally stabbing herself removed – while also undergoing tests to understand why she was losing so much weight.
Katie’s changing figure has not gone unnoticed with fans, with the former glamour model previously stepping on the scales to prove nothing was wrong. However, Katie has now admitted that she “doesn’t know why” she is losing weight and underwent tests to find out more.
She shared a video on her Snapchat story, saying, “Gone to the doctors about my weight. My doctors scheduled me for an early x-ray so she could get some blood, and they had three x-rays because my veins are so stinkin’ bad. There were only two empty tubes.
Katie continued, “And I’ve got to have my stitches removed because they examined my minor stab wound.” I’m seeing the doctors because I keep losing weight, and I’m not sure why. That’s that, then.
