I as soon as got here nose to nose with Katie Value – and he or she referred to as me scum. In addition to the entire different journalists and reporters that she runs to when she desires yet one more 5 minutes of fame.
The previous glamour mannequin is an knowledgeable at hanging up a headline, and whether or not it is good or unhealthy, she simply completely likes to be within the highlight. It was a topic that she touched on in depth after I went to see her dwell tour, the place she paired up with Kerry Katona in St Helens final yr. The 2 ladies have had rollercoaster lives, with each minute being placed on present for the general public. From messy divorces to welcoming kids into the world, candid moments and actually every little thing in between, there’s not a second that has not been aired (that poo pic will hang-out me ceaselessly, Katie – some issues might stay personal!). As I sat within the viewers at an occasion that I attended with press tickets – which means they have been properly conscious that reporters could be current – Katie ranted and raved about her dislike of journalists. “They’re all scum,” she exclaimed as Kerry chimed in: “If there’s any journos right here tonight, then f*** off!”

Katie then went on an enormous rant about how the pair was once paid 1000’s again within the 90s and now they barely make a penny from any interviews or paparazzi photos – securing the thought that her life is fastidiously deliberate out to assist her usher in cash.
Regardless of her hatred of these writing the headlines, I do sort of get it. Katie and Kerry have each had some very darkish moments through the years, and whereas they’re completely satisfied to share all of it, everybody continues to be entitled to some extent of privateness.
Fact be informed, I do really feel very sorry for Katie. She makes her cash from being a public mess, largely. And whereas, at some factors, she’s keen to share these moments freely, at different occasions she has wished a personal second.
Whereas she has tried different avenues to spice up her funds, equivalent to totally different companies, her personal actuality TV exhibits and writing books, it appears Katie retains going again to wild methods to grab headlines.
Her daughter, Princess, lately starred in her personal docuseries, the place she admitted that she wouldn’t prefer to strip off in public as her mum has carried out for therefore a few years.
So I suppose the query is have her children learnt from her errors? Or has she truly raised them proper? With the quantity of affection she exhibits for them, I actually do hope and assume that it’s extra of the latter.
