Katie and Peter ‘tried to save marriage’
|
While their constant bickering used to keep us amused for hours, the split between Katie Price – aka Jordan – and hubby Peter Andre seemed to come out of the blue. However, it looks like the couple made an eleventh-hour attempt to save their marriage by going to marriage counselling.
When the sessions failed to bridge the gap between the couple, Peter decided enough was enough and left Katie. However, a friend told the Daily Mirror that he didn’t walk out “until he had done everything in his power to make the marriage work”.
The source added: “Neither of them take divorce lightly and both wanted their relationship to work for the sake of the kids, if nothing else. Although they both went into [counselling] willingly, it was more of a Band-Aid gesture.” Insert your own joke about Bono and Bob Geldof here.
Anyway, life goes on. Our Pete-dar tells us that he’s currently in China, promoting his new single ‘Call the Doctor’ – an upbeat party anthem based on his time in therapy. He’s also presenting a gong at the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) awards – ‘the Bollywood Oscars’ – in Macau.
Meanwhile, closer to home, Katie has been out and about in London – but of course you knew that already, having read about it in our Celebrity Blog. After a day packed with meetings, she rolled up to posh nosherie Nobu with a load of girlie pals and parrot-haired paparazzi king Darryn Lyons (who’s a bit of a Nobu himself).
In other Katie news, we hear that the experienced rider has splashed out £15,000 on a new horse – ‘Jordan’s Major Max’ – and is planning to start entering some professional eventing competitions. She’s also started studying boxing and martial arts at something called the ZT Fight Skool.
We hope the horsey world knows what’s heading its way!
