"A lot of things that Aggie has said are untrue.
"Recollections may vary."
They went on: "Kim was asked in interview many times about Aggie but kept a dignified silence out of respect for the great work they did together.
"Kim's friends and family find it upsetting that she couldn't do the same since Kim's passing."

But Katie has now insisted that she's a "bloody good mum" to her five children and wants to sit down with Pete to discuss their issues once and for all. The TV personality said on the latest episode of her Katie Price Show podcast: "There's no reason why both parents just can't be there to support her. Now this isn't about me. I have to clarify this. "I don't care that I'm not in Princess's show. "I don't need to raise my profile by being on Princess's show, I do enough stuff. "All what I want to do, is just whatever my daughter does, and it's the same with Junior, I don't care if I'm in the background, but I want to watch her do her photo shoots, I wanna watch her do her signings, because that's what I did. "And my mom and you and Nan used to come along and support, and I'm proud of her. "And I just wanna be there with her because I now I feel that I've missed out on so much." Katie said she believes that she and Pete needs to come to hash things out to make life easier for their two kids - Princess and Junior, 20. "It's so not fair to bring princess piggy in the middle.

"I just think life would be a better place. "Well, I'm not saying we all have to be best buddies, best friends, but come on. "For the sake of the children, there's room for everyone to support your kids. "Do you know what I mean? I'm not saying I have to stand with them and play happy families." Katie's suggestion of a meet-up comes after the star admitted she's feeling left out of certain parts of her children's life. She continued: "Like, I've missed out so much with Princess. "I haven't watched the show, but, people have told me how proud I should be of the kids and how they Princess does talk highly of me all the way through it so although I'm not in the show she speaks about me all the time which is really sweet but why wouldn't she because she lives with me and this is another thing I need to clear up, the kids have never lived just with Pete, we've shared the kids. "I am a bloody good mum. People can even see that with Harvey. "Like, I am a good mum and it's so much easier, I have found out, when you have a child on your own without the other half involved because I've never had a problem with Harvey. "It's just been me, the family, and Harvey. And I hate it that when people split up, it always gets messy and the kids shouldn't be used." Katie concluded: "But I am absolutely proud of of Princess. Me and Princess are so, so close. "We've never ever ever had an argument till this day, and we still text and ring each other every day." It was previously reported that there was a big fall out after Katie wasn't allowed to go to Princess' 18th birthday party, hosted by her ex, and her daughter's dad, Peter. In part one of the fourth episode of The Princess Diaries, Princess was asked by her famous father who she wanted at her party - and it appeared to not include Katie. Princess turned 18 back in June, and at the time Katie claimed she wasn't invited because she had been banned from appearing in The Princess Diaries. Speaking on her The Katie Price Show podcast at the time, she said: "Everyone knows she's doing this documentary - and I'm not in it. "Certain people don't think it's good for Princess to be seen with me. Certain people that used to look after me." Her sister Sophie chipped in: "You aren't on brand Katie. You are too risky Katie that's why." Katie then said: "It's pathetic. I'm her mother. "I'm just saying, Princess was like 'I'm having a party'. And I wasn't invited because it was for 'filming.'" Sophie added: "Oh of course it was! I wonder what restaurant did that for free." Continuing the rant, Katie said: "The fact is there's stuff my daughter is doing and I'm not allowed to be seen at any of it." The Sun revealed how the documentary has caused a huge rift between Princess and her famous mum. Katie previously vented about those working with her daughter after The Sun revealed her secret heartache about being cut out of her TV show. She even vowed not to watch her daughter's reality show, after feeling left out of such an important thing in Princess' life. Earlier this week, Katie shared a cryptic message saying "your mum is not your enemy". Sharing a quote on her Instagram stories, Katie urged that as a mum she is "not trying to control" but instead "trying to protect" The quote also acknowledged how she "may not be perfect" but is "the only woman in this world" who wants the best for her children.

Rebecca Adlington reveals heart-wrenching reminder of miscarriage that left her 'hating her body' when she got home from hospital in emotional This Morning interview with husband Andy Parsons
Rebecca Adlington has opened up about the heart-wrenching reminder of her second miscarriage that left her 'hating her body' when she got home from hospital in an emotional interview on Thursday's instalment with her husband Andy Parsons. The couple took to the sofa to chat to hosts Emma Willis, 49, and Craig Coyle, 54, about their two devastating miscarriages - in a bid to raise awareness and help anyone else who has suffered. Rebecca had her first miscarriage at 12 weeks back in 2022, and was told that she had a molar pregnancy - so this resulted in her having emergency surgery. A molar pregnancy occurs when a lump of abnormal cells grows in the womb instead of a healthy foetus. The following year she was told about her second miscarriage at her 20-week scan, and she had to give birth to her child - and she really struggled to look at herself afterwards because it looked like she was still expecting. Speaking about her heartbreaking ordeal, Rebecca bravely told the hosts: 'I was angry at my body, my body let me down, it didn't give me that: "This is going wrong! Go get help!" 'It didn't tell me anything. I had no symptoms. That was really hard to get over, and afterwards as well, you still look pregnant. 'That is very hard to deal with, the fact that you give birth, the baby isn't alive, and then you go home, you have to look in the mirror as a woman and still look 20 weeks pregnant. 'It's incredibly hard. I hated my body, I fell out of love with my body, even though my human body delivered two healthy children, four Olympic gold medals and yet I just couldn't understand why it had let me down now. 'And the second time as well. It's hard the second time around.' Rebecca is proud mum to her daughter Summer, who she shares with her first husband Harry Needs. They tied the knot in 2014 and welcomed her the following year, but later split in 2016. The former couple started dating in 2011. The Olympian and husband Andy, who got together in 2018, share son Albie - who they announced that they were expecting in March 2021. During the interview, Andy gave the partner's perspective, and he said: 'well straight away my role was the supportive role, I was supporting Becky from the off, when it happened. 'From there, all energy and thoughts are with Becky, its her body, her trauma, it's her issue essentially with what's happened. 'So when I realised that my main focus, I took a step back at times, went to work, realised that I couldn't process it properly myself, I was struggling a lot myself. 'We had petals, who were really fundamental in being able to talk about it going forward. Petals is a baby loss charity, so we ended up having couple's counseling, which really helped. 'One hour a week on focusing on talking about the loss of Harper, so that was key. 'There's not enough support for the men in this situation, with regards to, they've also lost a child as well, but the focus rightly so is on the lady, there needs to be a focus on the man as well.' Emma asked what the initial signs were that he knew he wasn't coping. 'I just started a new job before we had the miscarriage, two days before Becky had to give birth to Harper, I felt compelled to go into the new job, show my face, show I was being professional. I was good at my role, and quickly realised that I was dreading the conversation of someone asking me how I was because I knew I would break down. 'I think I lasted five minutes on my first day and then went home, got sent straight home by my boss at the time. He was really supportive.' This Morning airs weekdays from 10am on ITV1 and is available to stream on ITVX. WHAT IS A MOLAR PREGNANCY? A molar pregnancy occurs when a lump of abnormal cells grows in the womb instead of a healthy foetus. A 'complete mole' is when there is no foetus, while a 'partial' occurs when a foetus starts to form but cannot develop into a baby. Around one in 590 pregnancies in the UK, and one in 1,000 in the US, are molar. Many women have no symptoms and are unaware they are having molar pregnancies until routine ultrasound scans. Some may experience: Vaginal bleeding or dark discharge Severe morning sickness An unusually swollen abdomen Treatment often involves removing the abnormal cells via suction. Medication may also be necessary. Treatment may also be required to remove any leftover abnormal cells, which can turn cancerous. Molar pregnancies do not affect women's chances of conceiving in the future.

Second MasterChef contestant edited out of latest BBC series after request
Another MasterChef contestant has been edited out of the latest series after the controversy over the conduct of its sacked presenters, raising further questions about the BBC's decision to broadcast the show. Banijay, the production company behind the cooking contest, confirmed to the BBC that a second contestant had asked to be edited out of the programme. It comes two weeks after the Guardian revealed that Sarah Shafi had agreed to be removed from the show, having said that it should not be aired. She said after allegations were made against Gregg Wallace and John Torode, its broadcast would send the wrong message about the treatment of women and inappropriate behaviour by prominent figures. Wallace was dropped by the BBC after an independent report substantiated 45 allegations made against him, including claims of inappropriate sexual language and one incident of unwelcome physical contact. He has apologised 'for any distress caused' but said the report cleared him of 'the most serious and sensational accusations'. Torode was also dropped as a presenter after he said he was the subject of a substantiated complaint over the use of racist language, which he believes never happened. A spokesperson for Banijay said: 'One other contributor decided that given recent events they would like not to be included. We have of course accepted their wishes and edited them out of the show.' The series, which began airing last week, was filmed before Wallace and Torode were sacked. The BBC claimed it was 'the right thing' to broadcast it, for the amateur chefs that took part. It had already been forced to edit the programme to reduce the prominence of Wallace and Torode and remove Shafi's appearance. It has now been edited further to remove another contestant, who has asked not to be identified, according to the BBC. The BBC is facing fresh criticism on social media about its decision to broadcast the series amid speculation about whether it would continue if more contestants asked to be removed. In a statement last month, the BBC said: 'This has not been an easy decision in the circumstances and we appreciate not everyone will agree with it. In showing the series, which was filmed last year, it in no way diminishes our view of the seriousness of the upheld findings against both presenters. We have been very clear on the standards of behaviour that we expect of those who work at the BBC or on shows made for the BBC. 'However, we believe that broadcasting this series is the right thing to do for these cooks who have given so much to the process. We want them to be properly recognised and give the audience the choice to watch the series.'
