Katie Price and Peter Andre have publicly confirmed their bitter war of words is over as they attempt to create a ‘calm and supportive environment’ for their children.
The former couple married in 2005, little more than a year after meeting as campmates on the third series of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!
They would go on to welcome two children, Junior, now 19, and Princess, 17, before announcing their abrupt separation and subsequent divorce in 2009.
Price, 47, who recently confirmed a surprise fourth marriage to businessman Lee Andrews, and Andre have since revealed the acrimony that followed their divorce has been resolved.
Sharing a joint statement, they wrote: ‘Katie Price and Peter have decided to close the door on the past and move forward into a new chapter with positivity and respect.
‘We are both focused on creating a calm and supportive environment for our children.

‘We have reached a mutual agreement, both legally and personally confirming that neither of us will speak negatively about the other going forward.
‘This decision reflects a shared commitment to our family and stability. We want to stand united for our children.
‘We are hoping this is a start of a positive relationship. We ask for understanding and support from both the media and the public as we move ahead.’
Andre previously claimed Junior and Princess lived with him for “their safety” and admitted staying silent on their personal situation has been “frustrating” over the years.
In a message posted on Instagram in 2025, he explained: ‘For sixteen years, I have stayed silent in the face of repeated lies from my ex-wife and her family, out of respect for my children and loved ones, but staying silent has been incredibly frustrating.
‘That ends today. The latest comments about my children’s welfare and living arrangements compel me to set the record straight.
‘For well-documented reasons, and for their safety, Junior and Princess came into my care in 2018 and remained with me until they reached adulthood.’
He added: ‘In 2019, the family courts issued a legally binding order to enforce this arrangement. I have never made this public before, out of respect for my children.

‘In 2011 and 2015, publicly documented court cases, found my ex-wife had made false claims. She was ordered to pay substantial damages and legal costs, and to apologise, to me and my management. The same falsehoods are being repeated today.
‘Unfortunately, there are many more lies and baseless accusations I have yet to address. Those will now be dealt with in the coming months.’
A spokesperson for Price told the Mirror: ‘Kate is in a much better and clear headspace and is at peace with the situation, this was in the past and she doesn’t feel the need to bring up tit for tat comments, but more importantly she’s dealing with this the right way and it’s now in her lawyers hands. “Kate will no longer be gaslight and bullied as she once was.’
Appearing on Paul C. Brunson’s We Need To Talk podcast in 2025, Price recalled how the Australian singer ended their marriage after convincing himself that she was having an affair.
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 redone 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.’
