Katie Price rushing to marry JJ Slater as she has ‘something to prove’

Katie Price’s heartbreaking update on her mother’s health revealed that Amy is struggling with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and is unable to continue doing what she used to do. A source now says OK! that the 46-year-old has a special desire to marry boyfriend JJ Slater sooner than later due to her mother’s ongoing health issues.

Katie wants to marry JJ as soon as she can. Before it’s too late, her mother should accompany her at the wedding and walk her down the aisle. Katie has slowed everything down and panicked because of her poor health, they said. In 2017, Amy Price, the mother of Katie, her older brother Daniel, and her younger sister Sophie, was given the diagnosis of the lung condition IPF.

Amy and the family share a very close relationship.

Amy was told at the time that she had only five years to live because of the illness, which causes scarring in the lungs and makes breathing more difficult. She now has both good and bad days, but she underwent a lung transplant in 2022 in the hopes of improving her condition. Katie has been dealing with the thought of losing her mother, which hasn’t been simple due to Amy’s illness.

Amy said in 2023, “I went into cardiac arrest and they had to “pump” me to bring me back,” recalling how she temporarily died on the operating table during her transplant. That’s something I didn’t know. Amy was asked how many times she died on her podcast, The Katie Price Show. Amy responded, “I believe it was only that once. I reportedly yelled, “I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe, they’re killing me.”

People need to understand what my mother’s delicate health is like because her brain is still so active and activated, Katie said in a recent interview about her mother’s delicate health. She is frustrated because she is unable to perform the tasks she once did. Katie continued, “Now here’s an example, because 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,” in an interview with her podcast. and I say, “No, we’re taking your wheelchair because I’m not taking an hour.”

Amy, 73, who has appeared in several of the star’s reality TV shows and has served as her pillar of strength over the years, is a well-known figure in Katie’s close relationship with her. Katie’s romantic partners have reportedly been given the seal of approval by Amy, who has also been “ruthless” with Amy.

Katie and JJ
According to a source, Katie wants to “get married to JJ in a low-key affair” (PA) with JJ.

JJ rose to fame on the 2023 series of Married At First Sight UK, while Katie is well known for her modeling and TV appearances. When he began dating Ella Morgan, who had been matched with another groom on the show, he stirred up a conversation. However, after she contacted him on Instagram, their relationship ended. Later that year, JJ met Katie.

In December of that year, the two men began dating before declaring their romance. Katie has been married three times, being the mother of Harvey, 22, Junior, 19, Princess, 17, Jett, 11, and Bunny, 10, respectively. She wed Alex Reid in Las Vegas in 2010 and then Kieran Hayler in the Bahamas in 2013. She first tied the knot with Peter Andre in 2005. And she hasn’t made it known that she wants to re-do the aisle.

She declared, “I’d love to get married again!” in December of last year. Because JJ is so over the top, he hasn’t even put a ring on my finger yet. Time is getting shorter now, according to our source, as Katie watches her mother’s health decline. She wants her mother to see that she is content and show her that she has found a good partner, they say. Given that Katie would be Katie’s ninth child, JJ will need to come up with a creative proposal.

Carl Woods, Kris Boyson, and Leandro Penna were among her ex-partners. Katie has had her fair share of wedding extravagance, most notably wearing a £45, 000 dress to wed Peter Andre’s first wife in a lavish castle ceremony despite not having the ability to get married to those former lovers.

However, this time around, it will be a private gathering of close friends, our source claims, more so than the glitz and glamour of a lavish wedding. And their children, according to them, will also be playing a special part in the wedding. “Harvey will be very involved and probably a pageboy,” he said. He and JJ get along really well. A modest wedding won’t be a big deal. The size of her wedding will be significantly smaller than Peter’s wedding, which she did not.

She simply wants to avoid being a tourist and spending time with JJ. Although Katie is aware of this, she will have an outrageous up her sleeve! But she quickly becomes determined to become JJ’s wife.

Kerry Katona slams ‘hypocritical’ Spencer Matthews over kids’ inheritance revelation

Spencer Matthews, the Made in Chelsea star’s son, was raised as the son of Eden Rock hotelier David Matthews, and his recent revelation that he wouldn’t pass down his wealth to his three children has been labelled as “hypocritical” by Kerry Katona.

Spencer, who has three children with wife Vogue Williams and their children Theodore, Gigi, and Otto, said to the Mirror: “It’s not a good idea to give it all to your kids. They are being greatly harmed by it. Kerry said in her weekly column, “Spencer Matthews says he won’t be passing on his fortune to his children because he thinks it’s no point doing well to give it to your kids, but I disagree.” I give my kids everything I have, and that’s the whole point of working so hard for them.

With wife Vogue Williams, Spencer has three children named Theodore, Otto, and Gigi.

Since he received a wealthy upbringing, it’s a little hypocritical. However, I sometimes worry that I’ve given my kids too much because he makes his kids work for their money. I enjoy giving my kids what it’s like to have nothing, but they don’t know what it’s like.

Kerry is a proud mother of five, having two children, Lilly Sue, 22, and Molly, 23, with her first husband Brian McFadden, and Heidi, 17, with Mark Croft, the youngest DJ, 10, and George Kay, the late husband’s son.

Spencer admitted he’s heard comedian Jimmy Carr discuss “trust fund kids,” but Spencer said he didn’t want his kids to be given everything and that he thought it was just a “very unfortunate” situation.

You might not ever understand the need to work because you have what you think you want, and you may not ever feel proud of yourself if you’re a young man or young woman who has just given everything. You won’t ever feel accomplished.

Theodore has recently joined his neighborhood Parkrun, perhaps in response to Spencer’s ultramarathons, and Spencer is already ensuring that his kids have challenges. Theodore is now starting to run, according to Spencer. The other day, he ran two kilometers. Because the child completed two laps, which some kids do after one lap because they were given that choice, I was so proud of him. They will become weaker as a result of the comfort you offer them.
