The couple had an explosive split in 2009 after four years of marriage, when Princess was just two years old.
While Princess was too young to really remember her parents together, she has traumatic memories of the breakdown of Katie's third marriage to Kieran Hayler.
In her new ITV2 series - The Princess Diaries - the teen opens up about her younger years and admits: "I did have a counsellor, I do still see her every now and then.
"But I don't feel like I can really talk, so I just write everything down in my notes.
"I do wish, like, I could have had a more happier childhood. In the sense of like, I had so many things on my plate at a young age."
She continued: "I wish sometimes that I wasn't like that and I could have actually enjoyed...not had things in the back of my mind so young."
Katie, 47, and Kieran were married from 2013 until 2018, when they split following his extramarital affair with Katie's best friend.
Speaking to the camera, Princess said: "Obviously I had amazing times in my childhood, I have amazing memories from when I was younger with my mum and my dad, and I also have not so good memories of the time when my mum and Kieran split up, when I was like, 10 years old.
"He was in our lives for like five years, so we got really close to him and we loved him.
"He did a lot of stuff and when they split up, everything kind of went downhill.
Emotional Peter Andre reveals strict rule for Princess and Junior
"My mum, obviously being heartbroken, didn't deal with that in the best way, she went through a very, very dark time, which is understandable.
"Which is hard for me because I was around adulty things that kids should never see and I think as well, when we needed our mum there, she wasn't emotionally able to be there because she had so much of her own problems going on."
Princess added how she would regularly come home from school and "get into bed and cry" over things people were saying or asking in the school ground relating to her famous mum.
She added: "I would never go and speak to my dad about it because I obviously have always grown up with 'my mum and dad don't like each other' which is fair enough, they're not going to."
I wouldn't say I'm fully, fully recovered from it
Princess Andre
Princess concluded: "I could speak about my childhood and be absolutely fine, but then once something sets me off and then I actually deep everything, I'm like 'Oh my God, like no'.
"And then it makes me think that I'm still not over anything or still not really healed from what's happened.
"I wouldn't say I'm fully, fully recovered from it but mum is such a different person and if you put her now to back then, she's genuinely really fixed herself."

The moon, Saturn, Halley's Comet all completely blew my mind as a kid. 'When I decided to call the album Eye To The Telescope, I thought I'd have a go at writing a title track.

TINDER RETRY FOR TODRICK HE is dazzling West End crowds as the star and director of Burlesque the Musical. But US actor Todrick Hall is hoping to find more than just a good review while in London. 12 Todrick Hall has signed up to dating app Tinder to find a normal bloke Credit: Tinder He's trying to get a boyfriend, too! Instead of looking for a showbiz personality to mingle with his A-list pals such as Taylor Swift, he has signed up to dating app Tinder to find a normal bloke. A single pal of mine was swiping on the app and saw Todrick's profile, which features a photo of him with another of his famous friends, Nicole Scherzinger. On the page, which has been verified as his, he writes: 'I make videos, sing, dance and act. I love Beyonce, Wizard Of Oz and Disney. So basically, I'm not the most masc person on here. 'If you're into it, swipe right lol.' It's actually a return to the app for Todrick, who said in 2023: 'I keep getting kicked off of Tinder because people think it's a catfish. 'So when I get on there, I'm like 'you better swipe until you can't swipe no more because your time is limited, OK?'.'

Princess Andre admits there were 'dark times' during her childhood in heartbreaking confession
Princess Andre, who is the daughter of Katie Price and Peter Andre, said she 'wishes she had a happier childhood' as she opened up on growing up in the spotlight with her quarreling parents. Princess Andre has made a heartbreaking admission about her childhood as she confesses she wishes it was a happier time for her. The 18-year-old, who is the daughter of Katie Price and Peter Andre, candidly opened up about "dark times" in her own TV show. The teen is now ready to make her career in the spotlight, having watched both her famous parents thrive in their showbiz careers. Princess let cameras into her home as a part of her new ITV2 series, The Princess Diaries, as she paves her way into becoming a successful influencer. However, during the programme, Princess admitted that things haven't always been easy for her. It comes after her controversial mother, Katie Price, recently sparked concern among fans over her very slimmed down appearance. Princess has addressed some of her traumatic memories of her glamour model mum's very public divorce from her dad Pete, as well as Katie's other highly publicised relationships, the Mirror reports. In a candid confession, Princess said: "I did have a counsellor, I do still see her every now and then. "But I don't feel like I can really talk, so I just write everything down in my notes. I do wish, like, I could have had a more happier childhood. In the sense of like, I had so many things on my plate at a young age." Princess said she wishes she "wasn't like that" and that she had to go through things lingering at the back of her mind while being very young. However, she did acknowledge other "good times" in her childhood and spoke about Katie's split from Kieran Hayler when she was 10-years-old. Katie and Kieran were married for eight years but had an on and off relationship, with accusations of infidelity. They officially separated in May 2018 but were married from 2013 to 2021. The former couple share kids, Jett and Bunny. Princess admitted "everything kind of went downhill" as she and her siblings got "really close to him and loved him." "My mum, obviously being heartbroken, didn't deal with that in the best way, she went through a very, very dark time, which is understandable. "Which is hard for me because I was around adulty things that kids should never see and I think as well, when we needed our mum there, she wasn't emotionally able to be there because she had so much of her own problems going on." In a heartbreaking admission, she shared how she would come home from school early to "get into bed and cry". Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

The model explained she has "always grown up knowing my mum and dad don't like each other." Princess added: "I wouldn't say I'm fully, fully recovered from it but mum is such a different person and if you put her now to back then, she's genuinely really fixed herself."
