Katie Price is reportedly planning to name the famous face who allegedly raped her.
The Pricey, 45, has long claimed that she was assaulted by a celebrity. Katie has never revealed her attacker’s identity but it seems that could be changing soon.
Amid the Me Too movement to encourage sex crime survivors to speak out, Katie is now said to be bravely doing the same – via her new book. The model recently announced she is set to release her seventh autobiography next month.

“After all the me-too stuff she thinks if other people have revealed their sex attackers, why can’t I? She vows this will be her most shocking book ever, and she’s ready to name and shame.”
Katie first claimed she was raped by a celebrity in 2009 during an episode of her reality show, What Katie Did Next in 2009. The former glamour model said she refused to report it so police never investigated.

“I was raped by a celebrity but no, I’ll never name him, I just don’t want the drama.” She added: “I don’t even know if he knows that I’ve spoken about him, I doubt he does.”
While in 2023, during an interview with The Guardian, Katie opened up again about the ordeal. She said: “A lot of people with status get away with things.
“People cover up for them and a load of people get paid off,” she added. Katie went on: “When I was in the Priory my therapist said ‘Kate, we’ve never known anyone to have so many traumatic events happen to them.’ And I’m still here, coping.” Daily Star has contacted Katie’s representatives for comment.

Katie announced the news of her new autobiography last month. Taking to Instagram, the 45-year-old hinted fans could expect the most “intimate look into my life to date.”
In the teaser, the star shared how she has managed to overcome some of the major hurdles she has faced in life over the past few years. She told fans: “This book just tops all the others. For so many years I hide behind what I’ve learned, the mask, because that’s my way to deal with things.
And it gets to a point where it becomes noise. I had my breakdown, the worst thing ever, and now I’ve come on top, I’ve learned not to be afraid.”
She went on: “And I think in this book, people will get to see really what it’s like to be me. There will be uplifting moments, there’ll be dark moments, and moments where I can put the truth right in a lot of things.”
