Katie Price defiant as she shares snap of her pets hours after PETA warning
Katie Price snuggled up close with five of her favourite pets over the weekend and shared a cute snap of her cats and dogs - hours after leaving fans concerned by a pet video
Katie Price has proudly shown off five of her pets after sparking alarm over the way she cares for some of her wildlife. The 46-year-old mum-of-five has attracted unwanted attention over the years over the fact animals have died in her care.
But over the weekend, the glamour model was celebrating some of her favourite furry friends as she took to social media to show off the pets that she loves and cares for. Taking to Instagram Stories, she shared a photo of her three hairless Sphynx cats and two dogs all snuggled together.
She added a simple caption to the image, writing: "My babies." The new image came just hours after she sparked outrage by sharing a video clip of a dog hanging out the window of a car.
She captioned the video clip, shared via Snapchat, to write: "Anyone else have a pet like this?" The simple post attracted a wall of anger from followers who expressed concern for the pooch, however.
Among complainers is the animal charity People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta) - who slammed the star for sharing her video on social media. A spokesperson told The Sun: "While it's wonderful for dogs to enjoy the great outdoors and lovely when guardians include them on suitable outings, it can be damned dangerous to have the car window lowered enough for them to jump or fall out."
Highlighting the risks to the dog, the spokesperson said: "A sudden stop, sharp turn, or tempting distraction can quickly turn a fun trip into a tragedy."
The latest intervention from Peta comes after they previously offered to pay her thousands of pounds to stop buying pets. Offering the glamour model £5,000, they said in a past statement: "things have gone horribly wrong with many of the animals under her supervision."
In June 2023, Katie's German Shepherd Blade was struck on the busy A24, close to her home in East Sussex. Sharing her grief at the time, she wrote in an online post: "Words can't express the lost of my best friend my protector my absolutely everything who had sadly passed away today. I have no words to say how I'm feeling but numb and shocked rip Blade."
Six months earlier, her pet Pomeranian Sharon was killed, reportedly in a horror crash on the same road. And the year before that, Katie's Alsatian Queenie, a present from her ex Kieran Hayler, was allegedly hit by a pizza delivery driver.
She wrote on social media at the time: "I'm absolutely devastated... she was killed by a heartless delivery driver who ran into our dog seeing her struggle and drove off without telling and left her to die."
Another Alsatian belonging to the star was killed on the A24 in 2020 - but it's not just dogs that have died in tragic circumstances. A horse was also killed on the busy road in 2017 when it escaped from a field.
In July 2020, French bulldog Rolo died after getting stuck under an electric armchair. The pet had been a present for Katie's daughter, Princess Andrei's 13th birthday and the mum called what happened a 'freak accident'.
The glamour model attempted to revive the pet before rushing him to the vet, where she learned it was sadly too late. "There was nothing they could do, but they did say he wouldn't have died in pain, it was quick," she explained on YouTube at the time.

Peter Andre weighs in about 'drama with exes' after Katie Price's surprising comments about his wife
Peter Andre has offered his thoughts about navigating drama with exes after Katie Price raised eyebrows with her recent comments. Earlier this month, Katie revealed what she really thinks about Peter's wife Emily, noting the fact that she and Peter always used to step out with the whole family, while Emily 'doesn't do all that' for him. Although Peter did not address the comments, he opened up on his thoughts about navigating exes during his latest new magazine column. Addressing Zara McDermott 's ex and new boyfriend coming face to face recently, he shared: ' Sam Thompson and Louis Tomlinson were both at Soccer Aid together for an incredible cause. The fact they've both been involved with Zara McDermott at some point is secondary for me. 'I think people will always try to make a fuss about dramas with exes, but we don't know what happened, and having been part of Soccer Aid in the past, I know people just focus on the game and the cause, everything else is left off the pitch. That's how it should be.' Peter and Katie split in 2009 after meeting and falling in love on I'm A Celebrity five years prior. Katie addressed her thoughts on Peter's new wife during appearance on comedian Katherine Ryan's What's My Age Again Podcast, admitting their daughter Princess was left baffled by his new relationship. The mother-of-five recalled: '[Princess] says, "You're just so nuts mum. When I see you and Emily, you're just so different. I can't imagine you and dad." 'I said, "I was with your dad six years. Trust me, we had a laugh and bantered together, we did." 'She said, "I just can't imagine dad being like that." I said "But he was, he was like that. We had a laugh." 'And you know, she can't believe that whenever he went anywhere or me, we were together with the kids. And we'd go as a family. 'Emily doesn't do all that for Pete. Me and Pete just did it all together as a family. If we'd got you kids, you would come with us.' Yet she did have kind words for Emily, with Katie adding: 'I'm glad he's with Emily. She seems like a proper lady. I think it'd be weird if he went for someone like me.' Katie - who has revealed she and Peter don't talk at all anymore - recently opened up about the real reason for their divorce. It had long been rumoured that the glamour model and her ex split over her close relationship with her dressage rider Andrew Gould. During an appearance on Paul C Brunson's podcast We Need To Talk, she said: 'We broke up because he thought I was having an affair with my dressage rider, and I've never slept with him. I just kept my horse there, and I was happy keeping my horse there, and he was married. 'But when me and Pete split, because he used to keep saying, "That's it. I've had enough. I've had enough". It got to a point where I went, "Well f***ing divorce me". And I remember the day, because then I flew to the Maldives with the kids. 'That day, I'm at the airport, it's all on Sky News, it wasn't mutual at all. And then I released a statement saying I don't want to split with Pete, it's Pete that's splitting with me. Until this day, me and Pete have never sat down and spoken about it. 'It's all through lawyers. I've never sat down with him, we probably would've sorted it out but we were kept apart.' After they announced their split, Peter said he was 'gutted' that Katie had taken their children to the Maldives villa where they had honeymooned in 2005. He told the Daily Star: 'Being apart from my kids is just breaking my heart. It's destroying me - I'm absolutely gutted.' Katie added that it is 'the most difficult thing' to co-parent, saying: 'But I realised you get to know what people are really like, and I've had it tough. But yeah, it is sad.' The TV personality and her ex-husband were honest about their jealous rows and were regularly seen arguing on their reality show, Katie & Peter. However, it came as a shock to their huge fanbase when they decided to go their separate ways - and seemingly to Katie, too. Revealing it wasn't her choice to split at the time, she said: 'Pete is the love of my life and my life. We have children together, and I am devastated and disappointed by his decision to separate and divorce me as I married him for life. 'This is not what I want, and the decision has been taken out of my hands. I will not comment further or do any interviews regarding the separation, but I will always love my Pete.'

Beauty and the Geek star forced to deny 'upsetting' false murder rumour
A former contestant on Australian reality TV show Beauty and the Geek has had to clear up rumours that she was involved in a murder. On Thursday, a man's body was discovered at a property in the city of Port Lincoln after police and emergency services were called at around 3.25pm following reports of a small fire. A 34-year-old woman – who is believed to have known the man – was arrested at the scene and has been charged with murder, South Australia Police stated in a press release. Following the report, reality TV star Kiera Johnstone, 26, posted a lengthy statement on social media stressing that she was not the woman who was arrested. It had previously been reported in publications including Daily Mail Australia that the woman charged with murder is a former star of Beauty and the Geek. Johnstone, who won the show in 2021, wrote on her Instagram Stories: 'Hi everyone. A former contestant from Beauty and the Geek has been charged with a very serious crime. 'Although no names have been released, for reasons beyond my understanding, there has been speculation online suggesting that I am involved.' She said she wanted to be 'absolutely clear' that she was 'not involved in any way' and has not been charged with a crime. 'I have literally never even had a parking fine. The allegations being discussed have nothing to do with me, and the fact that I even need to say this is incredibly upsetting,' she continued. 'It's deeply disturbing to see people spreading false information, making assumptions and sharing screenshots. Johnstone said that she 'understands the internet can be quick to judge' but the online speculation had been 'damaging and invasive.' 'If you are part of the group fuelling this – sharing, gossiping or silently watching – I ask you to please stop,' she urged. 'This is not entertainment. This is a serious situation that involves real victims. you're literally sick if you think this is at all funny. More Trending 'As this has nothing to do with me, this will be the only time I speak on the matter. 'Thank you to those who reached out with kindness and common sense.' In the department's press release, South Australia Police outlined: 'Police believe both the man and woman are known to each other and there are no community safety concerns.' The woman has been refused bail and remains in custody. It has been reported that the man's cause of death has not yet been determined. Got a story?
