The Sun22-05-2025

It came just weeks after she was slammed by an animal charity over a "dangerous" move which saw her dog hanging out of her car window.
Now fans have taken to her page to leave their angry comments, with one exclaiming: "Is it any wonder those animals get killed so often!"
Katie explained to her viewers in her video caption how she still keeps her horses in the stables next to her Mucky Mansion home.
The mum of five who recently shared a snap of her five pets after welcoming Cocker Spaniel Rookie, wrote: "Even little Rookie is there.
"I want him to get used to the horses and he does so well."
The adorable pooch could be seen scooting around after them and Katie said of Rookie in the video as she cantered: "Oh he's good already isn't he, they learn so quick."
As her riding mate said: "Don't go near the back legs," Katie replied: "Well he hasn't learned that yet, but he will."
The dog ran out in front of her as she added: "Wait til we get to the field Rookie."
Yet a handful of fans were left hugely concerned by the scenes.
One wrote: "No one was looking out for the dog on the road. Is it any wonder those animals get killed so often!"

A second put: "No hi vis on the horses or the dog ffs! So stupid of them both!!"
A third then wrote: "Katie please watch the dog, you were on a road and the dog was running around, we don't want another accident do we!"
One then added: "Worried about the pup so close to the horses back legs. Only needs one kick…we had a loose dog running around in our horses field and it was kicked in the head. Killed it instantly.
"Very sad but dogs should never be under the horses feet like that, no matter how 'bombproof' you think the horse is."
Katie's troubled pet history
November 2017
One of Katie's horses was killed on the A24 after it broke lose from its field. She announced the death on social media and said she was devastated.
February 2018
Katie's dog Queenie was hit by a car near her home, with the former model blaming a delivery driver for leaving the gate open.
November 2018
Katie claimed the family's pet chameleon, called Marvin, died from a broken heart after her children Junior and Princess moved in with her ex husband Peter Andre.
February 2020
Her Alsatian Sparkle lost her life after getting lose and being hit by a car. Katie posted the news on social media but was hammered by fans who called for her to be more careful.
July 2020
Fans rounded on Katie after her daughter Princess's puppy Rolo suffocated. JRC Bullies who gifted the dog to Katie were furious and said: "We are heartbroken that this has happened as we told Katie not to leave a small puppy on its own. "We can't believe that the puppy was left unattended as we had left strict instructions.'
November 2022
Katie came under fire after she revealed her pomeranian Sharon had been hit by a car and killed outside her Horsham home.
June 2023
Katie was slammed by PETA after her seventh pet was killed. She revealed her dog blade had been run over on the same stretch as road as her last dog Sharon.
October 2023
Katie had four Chihuahuas but in October she sold two of them for £2k each.
Another then surmised: "How long will this poor dog last? This is someone who should not be allowed to own another pup after her track record."
STAR SLAM
The concern comes after Rookie was at the centre of attention again this month - for all the wrong reasons.
The pooh was seen hanging out of the window of her car, with the window fully down as Katie held on via the pink harness.
She could be be seen filming in the wing mirror, and wrote: 'Anyone else have a pet like this?'
But an animal charity then hit out at the star for sharing the Snapchat video.
In a statement, a PETA spokesperson exclusively told The Sun: 'While it's wonderful for dogs to enjoy the great outdoors and lovely when guardians include them on suitable outings, it can be damned dangerous to have the car window lowered enough for them to jump or fall out."
The star has not had the best of luck with her furry friends.
The petition against Katie owning animals came after her dog Rolo was found dead by her son Harvey's carer after getting stuck under a chair.
Rolo's tragic accident happened five months after another of the family's dogs, Alsatian Sparkle, was killed running into a busy road.
Another dog, Queenie, died in tragic circumstances in 2018, when she was struck by a delivery driver.
In 2017, one of her horses escaped her West Sussex property and was killed when a car hit it on the A24.
Animal rights group PETA has also said Katie should be stopped from owning any more pets.
T he petition to stop Katie from owning animals has now reached a huge 37,000 signatures.

Dragonfly review – haunting, genre-defying drama of lonely city living

Twenty years ago, Paul Andrew Williams announced himself as a smart new British talent with his ferocious gangland picture London to Brighton, and his creativity has continued in film and TV ever since. His new film is a haunted, social-realist drama with elements of Mike Leigh but also moments of thriller and even horror. Williams isn't shy of stabbing us with an old-fashioned jump scare towards the end, which in fact challenges the audiences with its refusal of categorisation. There are two superb lead performances from Andrea Riseborough and Brenda Blethyn and an outstanding supporting turn from Jason Watkins. Dragonfly is about loneliness and alienation and about the eternal mystery of other people, the fear of intimacy and the unknowable existence of urban neighbours. Elsie, played by Blethyn, is an older woman who is quite capable of independent living in her bungalow, but a recent fall and an injured wrist has meant that her middle-aged son (Watkins), all too obviously to compensate for not visiting that often, has paid for daily visits from a private agency nurses. They are overworked and not doing an especially good job. Really, she doesn't need these nurses and by enduring them, Elsie is shouldering the burden of her son's guilt. Meanwhile nextdoor neighbour Colleen, played by Riseborough, is a continuingly strange presence. She is a melancholy, withdrawn figure, evidently on benefits and living with her huge American bull terrier, uncompromisingly named Sabre. Williams shows us that she is effectively living in a kind of platonic relationship, or mariage blanc, with this dog; the film periodically gives us startling shots of Sabre's colossal body in a kind of domestic nakedness sprawled on Colleen's bed. In a manner that may be insidious or predatory or just friendly and compassionate, Colleen befriends Elsie; the latter overcomes her initial nervousness of Sabre and she appreciates Colleen's forthright offer of help. Colleen goes down to the shops to get groceries for Elsie and after a few such trips they agree that what would be easiest would be if Colleen simply gets Elsie's debit card and Elsie gives her the pin number. Of course, the film allows us to suspect the worst and then suspect the worst of ourselves for suspecting it. Colleen seems to be unhappy and damaged but well-meaning, especially when she (for a laugh) buys them both a two-way radio so they can easily keep in contact – but then uses this radio to talk to Elsie late at night and semi-intentionally to allow bewildered Elsie to hear what's happening in Colleen's house. It is a riveting dual portrait of two gloomy people who really have, in a strange and dysfunctional way, found a new way of interacting and – importantly – this is a triangular relationship: Elsie, Colleen and the vast Sabre. But with a terrible inevitability, Elsie's uptight busybody son John (Watkins) arrives and there are awful consequences to a conversation he has with Colleen which Williams only shows us in long shot, withholding the truth about what he's saying. It's a stark, fierce, wonderfully acted film. Dragonfly screened at the Tribeca film festival.

EuroMillions: UK's biggest lottery prize is still up for grabs

There is still the chance for someone to secure the biggest lottery prize the UK has ever seen, after Friday's EuroMillions draw had no winners. The jackpot had rolled over to an estimated £208m, after Tuesday's £199m draw - which also would have been a record-breaking amount - had no winners. The winner would instantly become richer than Adele and Harry Styles, while also bagging the top spot on the National Lottery's biggest wins list. Housing raffles take UK by storm - how likely are you to win? Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at Allwyn, said: "The EuroMillions jackpot is now capped, so any money that would have gone into increasing the jackpot now boosts prizes in the next winning prize tier. "We could see multiple UK players banking huge prizes for matching just the five main numbers and one Lucky Star." The previous largest prize pot was won by an anonymous UK ticket-holder, who took home £195m on 19 July 2022. Just two months earlier, Joe and Jess Thwaite, from Gloucester, won £184,262,899 with a Lucky Dip ticket. At the time, Joe was a communications sales engineer, and Jess ran a hairdressing salon with her sister. Mr Thwaite said he woke up at 5am as usual, and checked his phone to see an email saying, "Good news, you have won a prize". But he did not immediately wake his wife, choosing to let her sleep in. "I saw how much and I didn't know what to do," Mr Thwaite said. "I couldn't go back to sleep, I didn't want to wake Jess up, so I just laid there for what seemed like forever. I spent some time searching for property with no budget limit, which was a novelty!" When his wife woke up, she assumed the National Lottery app was wrong. 1:24 In February last year, Richard and Debbie Nuttall were revealed as the UK winners of a £61m EuroMillions jackpot - who at first thought they had only won £2.60. The couple from Lancashire split the £123m prize with a winner in Spain.

Arrgh you joking? Tesco pensioner stuns shoppers by bringing his pet PARROT with him to buy groceries

On a balance of probabilities, parrots are more likely to be spotted walking the plank than walking down the ready meals aisle of a major supermarket. But that was exactly the scene that greeted one customer, who was left stunned after spotting a pensioner with a colourful parrot perched upon his shoulder in his local Tesco. Named Bella, the 12-year-old exotic bird prompted the stunned man to capture his unusual encounter on video. Posting the footage to X, the astonished man can't help but exclaim, 'That is something unbelievable. Oh my God,' as he spots the red-and-green macaw. 'See the parrot, man, in Tesco,' he continues. After approaching the otherwise unperturbed owner, the man says: 'How are we uncle, you OK? Lovely parrot, man. How old is it?' After being told the bird is aged 12, the curious bystander asks whether the bird speaks. 'She does when she wants,' replies her owner. Man brings his parrot along with him on his Tesco shop 🦜🛒 (TikTok: mr_w1cked1) — UB1UB2 West London (Southall) (@UB1UB2) June 6, 2025 He went on to add that she could fly off 'if she wants to', but remained firmly on the man's shoulder as he casually walked down each aisle to pick up his groceries. 'That is good man, you've trained her well,' the surprised customer told the bird owner, before bidding him farewell. Green-winged macaws are the second largest parrots next to the hyacinth macaw and can reach flight speeds of up to 35mph. They have a very powerful beak which can generate a pressure of 2000 psi (pounds per square inch) and have the ability to crack open incredibly hard-shelled nuts, such as Brazil nuts with ease. Parrots mainly eat seeds, fruits, blossoms, buds, leaves, berries, nuts and sometimes bark - and do indeed enjoy the occasional cracker as well.
