Katie Price Refutes Red Carpet Claims and Explains Facial Swelling Following Surgery
Katie Price has responded directly to allegations that she crashed her daughter Princess Andre's appearance on the red carpet at the National Television Awards, publishing video evidence of the moment on social media. The former glamour model attended the ceremony at London's O2 Arena, where 18-year-old Princess had arrived alongside her 21-year-old brother Junior Andre to represent her nominated reality series. Following press reports alleging that Price had stalked her daughter across the venue to force a joint photograph, Price took to Instagram to reject the narrative.
Metro reportedly quoted Katie Price (reality television personality on Instagram) as saying: “I don’t know where you get your information from, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Watch my next video for the proof!”.
To counter the reports, Price posted video footage of the red carpet interaction showing Princess walking over to join her mother, rather than Price pursuing the teenager. The footage shows the pair coming together naturally in front of photographers.
