Katie Price’s ex-husband Kieran Hayler has reportedly been accused of sexually assaulting a minor, according to the Mirror.
The 43-year-old fiercely denies the claim and is reported to be “absolutely devastated” by the historical accusation made about him.
It is believed Sussex Police have called on the dad-of-three to voluntarily attend a police station next week for an interview into the allegation.
The reality star is claimed to have allegedly assaulted a girl under the age of 18 several years ago.
Now, the publication has received a statement from Kieran’s representatives as he prepares to fight against the claim put to him.

“He will fight to clear his name and moreover for those responsible to be brought to justice.”

Katie first met the TV star over online chat service Blackberry Messenger back in November 2012 and he popped the question on Christmas Day just one month later.
The whirlwind romance continued to move at breakneck speed as the two tied the knot in the Bahamas on January 16, 2013.
But that same year the blonde bombshell discovered that her hubby had cheated on her with her close friend of 20 years, Jane Poutney.
And this wasn’t the only infidelity the star had while dating the former glamour model after it was rumoured he enjoyed another fling with one of her close pals.

Despite his betrayal, the two love birds managed to patch things up as they went on to renew their vows in 2015.
But their love was short-lived after they called quits on their relationship in 2018 amid further cheating allegations.
The duo finalised their divorce in early 2021 and share two children together – eight-year-old Jett and seven-year-old Bunny.
