Katie Price is mother to five children – including two youngsters with her current boyfriend – and has revealed how she can rack up an astonishing amount at the supermarket
Katie Price has left jaws on the floor with the revelation of her eye-watering weekly supermarket spend – just days after being discharged from bankruptcy. The telly star is determined to make a comeback on the Sunday Times Rich List, as she toasted to her recent positive turn of events.
The 46-year-old glamour model and TV personality, who is a doting mum to five kids – including son Harvey, 22, from her previous relationship with footballer Dwight York, teenagers Junior, 19, and Princess, 17, from her first marriage to Peter Andre, and youngsters Jett, 11, and Bunny, 10, from her third marriage to Kieran Hayler – certainly has a full house to provide for. This includes her current beau, Married At First Sight’s JJ Slater, 33.
Yet, it’s bound to raise eyebrows how Katie manages to splash out a whopping £700 at the checkout each week after a family trip down the supermarket aisles. She’s pointed the finger at the offspring she shares with ex-hubby Peter, claiming they go wild with their own shopping trollies alongside their partners.
Her second eldest, Junior, has been loved-up with Jasmine Orr, a 24-year-old influencer and Celebs Go Dating alum, since May last year, while Princess has been seeing her beau, known only as Ed, since early 2023.
Spilling the beans on her podcast, ‘The Katie Price Show’, the proud mother confessed: “I do weekly shops, I spend about £500-£700 a week,” reports the Mirror.
Katie has confessed that her family’s grocery shopping trips often end in chaos, with her children having vastly different spending habits. She explained: “Sometimes we all go [to the shops]. I hate it because I say to them, we all get a trolley each, and Princess and Ed fill theirs up whereas Junior and Jasmine are careful with what they put in. They look at the prices and stuff and I just put everything in.”
However, despite their differing approaches, Katie admitted that their shopping hauls never seem to last long, saying: “But then it still just goes so I find in the week I still have to top things up.”
The glamour model has faced significant financial struggles in recent years, including a £750,000 unpaid tax bill that made headlines last year. However, she was finally cleared of bankruptcy last month, and a second bankruptcy claim was discharged this week, leaving her feeling relieved.
Katie told The Sun: “I can finally move on and put these bankruptcies behind me and now only focus on the positive.”
Meanwhile, her boyfriend JJ has found himself at the centre of drama after his ex-girlfriend Ella Morgan Clark, whom he met on Married At First Sight in 2023, made some subtle digs about him.
Ella told Olivia Attwood on the So Wrong It’s Right podcast that she had heard rumours about JJ and Katie’s relationship through a group chat with other MAFS contestants.
She said: “So I knew before it even got leaked to the press. I didn’t care. I love Katie, she’ll always be iconic, we still message now. I love her, I don’t have any bad blood with JJ, he’s just a bit of an ex now.”.
