Katie Price’s current drama surrounding Princess Andre’s new ITV show, The Princess Diaries, has been a topic of discussion for Kerry Katona’s best friend.
Katie Price has been at the top of the headlines in recent weeks since her daughter Princess took to the small screen with a new ITV show, something Katie claims she was cut out of by ex-husband Peter Andre and his management. And now, Katie’s best friend Kerry Katona has weighed in on the drama with her opinion.
Supporting Katie in her weekly New! Magazine column, the former singer spoke about Katie’s ex-husband Kieran Hayler and the public he made to Princess last week. On the show, The Princess Diaries, Princess opened up about tough times in her childhood and admitted it was hard seeing her mum split from Kieran – who had become a big part of her life.
Kieran then spoke out with an apology to Princess, sharing to the Daily Mail: “I am as sorry as I can be to Princess witnessing us go through such a horrible separation. Leaving them was one of the hardest things I ever had to do.” Kieran suggested that he “would love to apologise” to her in person. It comes after Princess said she’s ‘independent’ from parents as she broke her silence on the alleged row.

According to Kieran, any child affected by a parent leaving the house and their marriage “rocks” the world. He claimed that the adults involved in the split “disrupted” and “affected” the kids as much as it “disrupted” and “affected” them.
Giving her thoughts on the situation, Kerry – who has been friends with Katie for over two decades – said: “There’s been a lot of drama surrounding my friend Katie Price and her daughter Princess Andre, which is never nice to see. Princess said in her show The Princess Diaries that she had a really difficult time when her mum split up with Kieran Hayler and Kieran has since issued a public apology.
I believe it is admirable that he apologized, because he deserved it so badly! Although it’s not my business and many people don’t see behind closed doors, Kieran was undoubtedly owed an apology to Princess and Junior.
Other Katie’s ex-partners have spoken out recently, with Peter Andre making a public statement after Katie claimed their children, Princess and Junior, live with her full-time, among other accusations against Peter.
Taking to Instagram, Peter, who has remained silent on his former marriage over the years, wrote: “For 16 years, I have stayed silent in the face of repeated lies from my ex-wife and her family, out of respect for my children and loved ones, but staying silent has been incredibly frustrating. That ends today.”
I must set the record straight when I make the most recent remarks regarding my children’s welfare and living conditions. Junior and Princess were placed with me until they were adults in 2018 for well-known reasons and for their safety. The family courts formally imposed this arrangement on the family courts in 2019. He continued, “I have never made this public before out of respect for my children.
He continued, saying that Katie “was ordered to pay substantial damages and legal costs, and to apologise to me and my management” after the courts determined that she had “made false claims” on “on two separate occasions, in 2011 and 2015”
In a passing glance, Peter made the implication that this was only the beginning of his back-and-forth, saying that her “baseless accusations “would be” dealt with in the upcoming months.
