Katie Price unleashed a scathing attack on her ex-husband Alex Reid during an interview, labeling him a 'nobody' and suggesting his fame is solely due to their high-profile marriage.
The 48-year-old former glamour model appeared on the Not My Bagg podcast, where she tore into Reid, claiming he was only known because of their whirlwind romance in 2009. When host Joe Baggs mentioned Reid as the first celebrity he had ever met, Price swiftly challenged the description, saying, 'But is he?' and questioning what made him a celebrity.
Price went on to claim that she had been the driving force behind their relationship, stating, 'Just because they've been with me, suddenly they think they are a celebrity. They ponce around me, use me. I'm the breadwinner, and it becomes boring.' The comments are the latest installment in the couple's long-standing public feud, which has shown little sign of abating despite their marriage ending more than a decade ago.
Price and Reid first met at Michelle Heaton's 30th birthday party in 2009 before tying the knot in a surprise Las Vegas ceremony the following February. However, their romance quickly soured, with the pair separating less than a year later and finalizing their divorce in 2012.
The latest remarks come just days after Reid announced plans to reveal more about their relationship in a one-man show tour, titled Alex Reid Speaks Out! His Story, His Truth. In a video posted online, Reid hinted at the show, saying, 'Katie thinks she's got nothing to hide,' and referencing her new documentary, Katie Price: Nothing to Hide.
Reid has previously spoken out about feeling 'humiliated' by some of Price's comments about their relationship, and the pair have continued to exchange barbs in the years since. The latest remarks also follow a 2019 court ruling, in which Price was ordered to pay Reid £140,000 in legal fees after she was accused of playing a sexually explicit video clip of him to a TV studio audience off-camera while filming an episode of Celebrity Big Brother's Bit On The Side in 2018. Reid was also granted a five-year injunction preventing Price from sharing any private information about their relationship.
