Fresh claims about the ‘feud’ between Katie Price and her daughter Princess Andre suggest that tensions between the two have deepened as Princess is set to launch her own reality TV careerTom Bryant , Amy Denman and Zesha Saleem22:02, 09 Aug 2025Some question whether Katie could be jealous of her daughter’s success(Image: Getty Images)Insiders have revealed fresh claims over Katie Price’s “feud” with Princess Andre after the former supermodel said she was banned from her daughter’s 18th birthday party.Bombshell reports say Katie, 47, flew abroad and missed a planned morning meet-up with Princess on her 18th birthday and is trying to “insert herself” into her daughter’s success amid her showbiz career.It is also claimed that Katie showed “attention-seeking behaviour” on the eve of Princess’s new ITV show to overshadow the launch. It comes as Katie has made several claims before the launch of her daughter’s reality series, The Princess Diaries, which starts on ITV2.Tensions are reportedly high between the two(Image: WireImage)The mum-of-five said she was banned from her daughter’s 18th birthday party and that her former management team – who look after ex-husband Peter Andre and Princess – did not want her on the show as they considered her “trash”.Speaking on her podcast, Katie said: “Princess was like ‘I’m having a party’. And I wasn’t invited because it was for ‘filming’. The fact is there’s stuff my daughter is doing and I’m not allowed to be seen at any of it.”But insiders claim Katie’s version of the truth is far from reality. It’s said that 18-year-old had arranged to see her mum on the morning of her birthday in June in London – but Katie failed to appear, The Mirror reports.A source said: “It was all in the diary but then Katie claimed she couldn’t make it as she was abroad. It was disappointing. For Katie to then say she was banned from the afternoon’s filmed party when she was the no-show in the morning is just beyond belief.”Fresh claims have been made(Image: Getty Images)The former Celebrity Big Brother winner was later pictured partying in Ibiza, and then Dubai. As well as that, she reportedly accidentally shared a happy birthday Instagram message to Princess – 36 hours before her daughter’s big day.Insiders are also confused by Katie’s attempts to “repeatedly insert herself into her daughter’s career.” The model herself said: “I have not been allowed to go on any photoshoots, signings or Superdrug openings or anything like that. I’m not welcome.”But the source said: “Why is she making this all about her? What sort of person on the eve of her daughter’s show, starts throwing all these grenades and believes she knows what’s best, and should be given equal billing? It’s Princess’s life, her career.”A second source added: “It’s so unfair that Princess is going through all this when it is her show and it’s about her…Pete keeps quiet about the whole situation with Katie and just wants to support his children.”She’s close with her dad(Image: INSTAGRAM)Some question whether Katie could be jealous of her daughter’s success. The source said: “Princess’s career is flourishing. It was already predicted before she’s going to be the next Kylie Jenner and now she’s set to become a millionaire by next year.”One source also told The Mirror that it was “ludicrous” for her to have hit out at her ex-manager at The CAN Group. Katie previously claimed: “I’ve always said over my dead body would I want her managing my kids. She doesn’t like me.”However, a source claimed: “When Katie was at the height of her problems, including her drink-drive arrest a few years ago, she approached her former manager for help.”She was in such a bad way but her manager was really happy to help… She organised a job but Katie didn’t end up doing it. To turn around now and claim she wants nothing to do with her is nonsense. She wasn’t saying that at the time.”Friends say that Princess loves her mum but it hasn’t been the easiest growing up. In her new reality show, the teen influencer lifts the lid on her tumultuous childhood, including how tough it was when Katie split from her third husband, Kieran Hayler, in 2018.She’s starting her own showbiz career(Image: @katieprice/instagram)She said: “My mum, being heartbroken, didn’t deal with it in the best way. She went through a dark time. It was hard for me because I saw things kids don’t need to see, and my mum wasn’t emotionally able to be there.”Princess read stories at the time about her mum, including her driving bans, divorce and bankruptcy hearings. She said: “I would go into school and have people ask me questions about what they had seen in the papers and I would go home and cry.”The teenager’s relationship with her mother is much stronger now. “I’m still not really healed from what has happened but Mum is such a different person and has really fixed herself,” she said, before describing her mum as “my best friend”.She added: “She is so unpredictable. She just lives life and doesn’t care, and I really look up to that.” The CAN Group said: “We would never advise a client on their personal life unless asked and we have never stopped anyone seeing their families.”Article continues belowKatie Price did not respond to requests for comment, according to The Mirror.For the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletter by clicking here.

Bros popstar said a fan once put a frozen bird on his lap and he couldn’t stop wondering how he would have explained it if a paparazzi had taken a picture of him with the strange gift19:04, 09 Aug 2025Updated 19:04, 09 Aug 2025Matt Goss was once given a frozen turkey by a fan(Image: Dave Benett/Getty Images)Matt Goss has revealed a crazed fan gave him a frozen turkey. The present was so odd it left the Bros singer in a right flap.He said: “The weirdest things I get given are food. A fan once gave me a frozen turkey. It was placed on my lap when I was in a limo. She was adamant that I took it. At the time I didn’t realise it was a frozen turkey.“Afterwards I always imagined what it would have looked like if a paparazzi had taken a picture of me with a raw turkey on my lap. How do you explain that one?”The original line up of Bros – Craig Logan and Luke and Matt Goss(Image: Getty Images)It’s not the only time Matt has been given an unexpected gift by a fan. Since finding fame in the 80s, he had everything you could think of.He said: “I’ve had so many strange things. When you go to places like Japan, you get some crazy stuff.“I was given a Rolex and Yohji Yamamoto designer clothes. They were incredible things. I’ve had things from opposite ends of the spectrum!”Matt Goss revealed last year that he and his brother Luke are no longer on speaking terms(Image: Getty Images Europe)Matt was part of the iconic 80s pop rock band Bros with his twin brother, Luke, and childhood friend, Craig Logan but it has recently been revealed the brothers are estranged and no longer speaking.The pair are best known for their hit track “When Will I Be Famous”, which dominated the charts at the time.Matt himself has gone on to do a host of other projects, including taking to the Strictly dancefloor.Matt has since gone on to star on Strictly Come Dancing and has released his own music(Image: Dave Benett/Getty Images)But in an emotional interview with The Guardian last year, Matt revealed that he and his former bandmate Luke are no longer speaking to each other. While opting to keep specific details private, singer Matt admitted that he had tried his best to reconnect with his brother.”I don’t want to go into detail, but I also don’t want to lie any more – we are completely estranged,” he explained. “When you do your best, that is enough. And I’ve done my best. I really have.”Strictly star Matt added that he would love to reunite with his brother to share in the happy moments of his life, such as going to the pub or meeting each other’s children. “I want to live with him, but I’m not going to make myself unwell. I’m not,” he insisted.The star kept the reasons behind the rift between the brothers to himself “out of respect” for Luke. However, he was keen to stress that relations between the pair were not as good as they once were.”I love Luke, I do, but I can’t comment on that on the record,” Matt explained. “I don’t want to put myself in harm’s way.”Article continues belowFor the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletter by clicking here.

Carol Vorderman has opened up about her concerns over the growing issue of online abuse, noting that even women with no public profile are now subjected to regular criticismDaniel Windham18:30, 09 Aug 2025Carol Vorderman issued an expletive-laden response to criticism(Image: Dave J Hogan/Getty Images)Carol Vorderman has delivered a blunt assessment of the escalating online harassment targeting women, expressing her shock at how widespread the issue has become across social media.The ex-Countdown host, 64, revealed she frequently observes the hostile behaviour directed at women online – including those without any public standing – and confessed the pattern leaves her deeply concerned.In conversation with HuffPost UK, Vorderman explained: “When I go through Instagram, for instance – and I try to follow a whole range of different people, because you see the different lives that people are living and everything – every woman gets abuse! And I just think, ‘Hang on, what the f*** has happened here?'”Vorderman recognised that celebrities typically encounter criticism as an occupational hazard, but she was swift to highlight the stark gender disparity in how such harassment is distributed.”OK, if you earn a lot of money and you’re on the telly, there are huge advantages to that – you take a bit of criticism,” she remarked. “I mean, it’s not right – because it doesn’t happen to men.”But it’s like, ‘Well, at least I’m getting the benefits,’ financially or whatever it might be,” reports Bristol Live.Carol Voderman opened up on her “unstable” childhood which saw her run away with her mum(Image: Channel 4)Whilst emphasising that criticism shouldn’t become an accepted aspect of celebrity status, she suggested those in the spotlight might view it as an inevitable consequence. “You can kind of go, ‘Oh, everyone’s got to put up with the bad bits as well as the good bits, if you’re going to be famous.'”However, Vorderman expressed her deepest concern is for the treatment of ordinary women.She highlighted how average individuals, particularly young women, are now facing online vitriol simply for living their lives.”When you’re just a normal person, a young woman living a normal life, doing your best, working hard, trying to have a nice time with your mates, and you get abuse – for what? For why?” she questioned. “That’s the bit I worry about, more than celebrities being mocked.Carol Vorderman(Image: Getty Images)Article continues below”It’s not the fault of social media,” she continued, “but social media has allowed the nastiness of nasty people to be freely out there.”The presenter, who has become increasingly outspoken on political and social issues, frequently uses her platform to address matters impacting women and young people.Her recent remarks underscore a growing concern echoed by campaigners, who argue that online harassment has become an everyday aspect of digital life for many women, leading to increasing demands for enhanced protections and regulation.

Former Love Island star Tommy Fury found his true love, Molly-Mae Hague, in the ITV villa but he’s admitted he’ll try and stop her going on the showSam Huntley Senior Showbiz & TV Reporter and Bang Showbiz16:57, 09 Aug 2025Tommy doesn’t want daughter Bambi to do Love Island when she’s older – but he said he’d support her in anything she does(Image: instagram.com/mollymae)Tommy Fury has admitted he doesn’t want his daughter doing Love Island in the future.The 26-year-old boxer met the love of his life, Molly-Mae Hague, on the 2019 series of the show. They went on to get engaged and welcome daughter Bambi, now two, and they have now rekindled their relationship after their split in 2024.But Tommy has admitted he isn’t keen for his little girl to sign up for the dating show when she’s older – or get into boxing for that matter. Asked how he’d feel if Bambi went on Love Island, he told the Telegraph magazine: “Oh, that’s a good question. I don’t even want to think about that…”I’d do my f***ing best [to stop her]! I don’t know. I don’t know! I’ll support her through anything.”He shares Bambi, two, with Molly(Image: Molly-Mae Hague Instagram)Discussing the potential of her following in his boxing footsteps, he said: “No. She’s too pretty to be a boxer. I’m going to take the black eyes and the broken ribs and the broken hands, so she doesn’t have to.”Tommy and Molly-Mae shocked fans when they announced their split in August 2024 but later reunited and he’s keen to have as many kids as possible.Molly and Tommy met in the villa and rekindled their romance earlier this year following their split(Image: Molly-Mae: Behind it all/Amazon Prime)He said: “I’d love to give Bambi a sibling.” Asked how many kids he wants, he said: “Forty. Me and Molly have had private conversations. I don’t think she’s quite on track for 40…”Obviously, I’m not the one giving birth. But all I ever wanted to do from when I was a young boy, I just wanted to have a family and do my boxing and look after them. My family is everything. I don’t care what happens in my life. I don’t care if boxing goes. Because if it were to happen again, I’ve got my family.”Tommy said it was love at first sight for him when Molly-Mae entered the Love Island villa as a bombshell. He said: “As soon as I saw her, it was game over. She’s the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen in my life. Inside and out. She is the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”She probably thought, ‘Who is this guy? What is he doing near me?’ I think if I was going on a date with myself, I’d be a bit like that.”Article continues belowTommy also admitted he only signed up for the show because he wanted a free holiday, admitting: “My fight had got cancelled. I could do with a holiday. I haven’t got money to go. Don’t forget – I’m not Bill Gates’s son. I don’t come from millions of pounds.”Have you joined Threads?

Oasis fans have been branded “fat, drunk and rowdy” by Edinburgh City Council, leading lead singer Liam Gallagher to fume ‘£1billion we’re bringing to this city over the next three days. £1billion’15:54, 09 Aug 2025Updated 16:09, 09 Aug 2025Liam Gallagher hit out at Edinburgh City Council(Image: Getty)Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher launched a scathing, expletive-laden attack on Edinburgh City Council as the band arrived in Scotland for their Murrayfield performances. Taking the stage on Friday (August 8) for Oasis’ first Scottish gig since 2009, Liam lashed out at council officials in front of a crowd of 70,000 people after they described fans as “fat, drunk and rowdy”.According to The Scottish Sun, freedom of information requests for safety briefing documents obtained prior to the reunion shows revealed that officials were concerned that the 210,000 attendees across three nights posed a threat to the concurrent Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The documents stated that the council anticipated “medium to high intoxication” and a “substantial amount of older fans” who were “already rowdy”.Additionally, there were concerns about the “tone of the band”, with warnings that “Middle-aged men take up more room. Consider this when working out occupancy.”Liam’s explicit rant on Friday night expressed his outrage. He said: “One second, where do I start here with everyone at the city council, the f***ing slags? ! £1billion we’re bringing to this city over the next three days. £1billion.”, reports the Express.Oasis fans at Murrayfield Stadium were in good spirits (Image: Getty)He continued: “But you won’t see any of it because the Lord Provost will be splitting it between [his] posh ugly f***ing mates.”Liam then demanded an apology from the council, stating that Oasis is “still waiting for a f***ing apology” following the comments made in October last year.He took to Twitter to express his outrage, posting: “To the Edinburgh council, I’ve heard what you said about Oasis fans and quite frankly your attitude f***ing stinks, I’d leave town that day if I was any of you lot. I’d love to see a picture of all the people on the Edinburgh council, bet there’s some real STUNNING individuals.”David Walker, spokesman for the Oasis Collectors Group, chimed in: “To call fans drunk, middle-aged, and fat is a nasty, sneering stereotype, it’s a jaundiced view.”Oasis held their first reunion event in Scotland yesterday (Image: Gareth Cattermole, Gareth Cattermole/Getty Images)However, Margaret Graham, the council’s culture and communities convener, defended their stance to The Sun, stating: “We’re very proud to host the biggest and best events in Edinburgh throughout the year, which bring in hundreds of millions of pounds to the local economy and provide unparalleled entertainment for our residents and visitors.”As with any major event which takes place in the city, we prepare extensively alongside our partners to ensure the safety and best possible experience of everyone involved – and Oasis are no different.”Article continues belowIn a twist of events, a comedian has now blamed the band after his Fringe Festival set was met with an empty audience.
