Move over, Princess! Katie Price to front her OWN documentary about rise to fame as glamour model 30 years on from her first topless shoot - after being 'banned' from her daughter's reality show

Daily Mail​3 days ago
Katie Price has landed her own bombshell documentary about her action-filled life and rise to fame - after she was 'banned' from her daughter's brand new reality TV show.
The former glamour model is lifting the lid on her personal life in the series, which will coincide with the 30-year anniversary of her entry into the limelight as one of The Sun's page 3 girls.
The three-part show is likely to delve into the details of the 47-year-old's fleeting flings, serious relationships and time in the spotlight.
The mother-of-five shot to fame when a friend suggested she send a photo of herself to The Sun newspaper to get her modelling career off the ground.
And shortly afterwards, Katie had her first photoshoot - wearing her naturally curly hair and a mini dress.
The Sky docuseries is likely to air next year - and the announcement comes just days after the release of Katie's daughter's reality show by rival broadcaster ITV.
The Princess Diaries explores the life of 18-year-old Princess Andre - who has had a tumultuous upbringing in the spotlight as the daughter of Katie and Peter Andre.
Katie is said to be furious that she doesn't appear more prominently in her daughter's programme - although her ex Peter has a starring role.
A TV source told The Sun of Katie's doc: 'This will very much be a nostalgic trip back to the wild celeb days of the Nineties and Noughties when the artist formerly known as Jordan burst onto the scene.
'But first and foremost it is an autobiographical show, and one which is likely to be seen as the most authentic version of her story.'
The documentary has reportedly been made by Louis Theroux's production company Mindhouse, the source said, and will feature unseen footage from over the years.
When she was the same age as her daughter is now, Katie first appeared in The Sun alongside the simple caption: 'Katie Price, aged 18, from Brighton, Sussex.'
After the fateful shoot, she became one of Britain's well-known faces, and went on to have a child, Harvey, with footballer Dwight Yorke.
She had a string of relationships with famous faces, including singers Gareth Gates, Dane Bowers and Peter Andre - with whom she had children Junior, 20, and Princess, 18.

Katie and Peter divorced after four years of marriage, and the mother then married fighter Alex Reid, before divorcing him a year later and marrying stripper Kieran Hayler in 2013.
Katie and Kieran had two more children together, Jett and Bunny, but Katie has stopped sharing images of the pair online to protect them from the 'nasty' world of social media.
The media personality's documentary is said to leave no question unanswered and no rumour unaddressed.
And it follows reports of an alleged family 'feud' as Katie feels she has been pushed out of her daughter's show.
Last week Princess hit back at claims she's embroiled in a family feud with her famous mother in an interview with the Daily Mail.
Her words came after the former glamour model said she was 'upset' after alleging she was banned from filming scenes for the series, which follows a string of recent events, including her daughter's 18th birthday party, where Katie says she was also not welcome.
But speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail, Princess explained any fallout from Katie's outburst at not being involved in her TV debut will be dealt with behind closed doors, as she insisted: 'It's my show, it's not based on my parents, it's focused on me. To be honest there's no rift between me and either of my parents.'
Viewers will see Princess celebrate turning 18 on her show and although Katie wasn't at the party, thrown by her father, the teen stands firm that her mother was never banned from attending.
She said: 'What I would usually do, as I've done my whole life, would be to spend the morning with one parent and the evening with the other.
'As it happened, mum ended up being away, and dad had already decided to throw me a last-minute birthday party, which we filmed for the show.'
The Princess Diaries has been months in the making and there is much hope at the network that the four-part programme will be not just a hit for them, but will catapult the 18-year-old into a household name, just as ITV did for her parents when they appeared on I'm A Celeb together.
Peter - to whom Princess is extremely close - has a starring role, along with stepmother Emily and Junior.
Yet Katie's only appearance in the opening episode comes in a voice note where she explains that Princess was a naughtier child than her brother.
Her exclusion has prompted Katie's 'full-on rage', according to sources.

Queen Camilla wipes away tear as veteran pays tribute to King's cancer battle

Queen Camilla was visibly moved at a VJ Day memorial ceremony on Friday as a 105-year-old war veteran paid an emotional, unscheduled tribute to King Charles's ongoing cancer treatment. The King and Queen joined Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and 33 veterans, aged between 96 and 105, who served in the Far East and Pacific. The national service of remembrance, held at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire, marked the 80th anniversary of VJ Day on August 15, commemorating the end of the six-year war. Often overshadowed by VE Day in May 1945, this significant date serves as a poignant reminder for those who served in the Far East, historically labelled "The Forgotten Army". Yavar Abbas, a former captain in the 11th Sikh Regiment, took to the stage. While scheduled to read extracts from his 1945 Burma diaries, Mr Abbas, originally from Lucknow in India, paused his prepared remarks to address the monarch directly. "I make no apologies for briefly going off the script to salute my brave king, who is here with his beloved queen in spite of the fact that he is under treatment for cancer," the centenarian declared. Camilla looked at her husband sitting next to her and appeared to wipe away a tear. Applause also erupted from the crowd of around 1,500 guests. Mr Abbas, who has battled cancer, added that he hoped his own 25-year remission from the disease would bring "comfort" to the King, offering a shared understanding of the health challenges faced. He added: 'I salute him for gracing this occasion, because by his presence here, he has gone a long way to make sure that his grandad's 14th Army is never given the sobriquet again of The Forgotten Army.' The ceremony was hosted by actress Celia Imrie and featured readings by actor Robert Lindsay and veterans, as well as musical performances from the National Children's Choir of Great Britain, Jennifer Pike and the Royal Corps of Signals Pipes and Drums. Ahead of the service, the King, in a pre-recorded audio address to the nation, vowed that the sacrifice of heroes who fought and died in the campaigns 'shall never be forgotten'. He also significantly acknowledged the devastation caused by the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki which led to Japan's surrender, describing the 'immense price' paid by its citizens as one 'we pray no nation need ever pay again'. He said: 'Please know that the courage and camaraderie displayed in humanity's darkest hour is a flame that shall blaze for eternity – a beacon that honours our past and guides our future.' After the service of remembrance, which started with a two-minute silence and a Red Arrows flypast, the King made his way to the Far East corner of the arboretum, where he met Silas Sarbah and Khadak Chettri, the grandsons of Second World War soldiers, as well as William Slim, the great-grandson of General Bill Slim, who led the so-called Forgotten Army. He viewed tributes at the Burma Railway memorial, which is constructed from 30 metres of original track from the so-called 'Railway of Death', and took a moment of reflection at the Burma Star Memorial and the Chindit Memorial, before heading to a reception for VJ veterans and their families. The King and Queen were joined by the Prime Minister and Lady Starmer, as they met some 30 veterans who served in the Far East during the Second World War for the British and Commonwealth Armed Forces, accompanied by their families and carers.

Queen emotional as veteran goes ‘off script' to honour King's cancer battle

The Queen appeared visibly emotional as a war veteran went 'off script' to pay tribute to the King's cancer battle at a VJ Day memorial ceremony. Charles and Camilla joined Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and 33 veterans aged from 96 to 105 who served in the Far East and Pacific at a national service of remembrance in Staffordshire on Friday. VJ Day on August 15 marks the 80th anniversary of the end of the six-year war, but much of the celebration in 1945 focused on VE (Victory in Europe) Day in May, with those who served in the Far East labelled The Forgotten Army. Yavar Abbas, who was a captain in the 11th Sikh Regiment, took to the stage at the National Memorial Arboretum to read extracts from his diaries during his time in Burma in 1945, but took a moment to pay tribute to his 'brave king' first. Camilla looked at her husband sitting next to her and appeared to wipe away a tear as Mr Abbas, 105, originally from Lucknow in India, said: 'I make no apologies for briefly going off the script to salute my brave king, who is here with his beloved queen in spite of the fact that he is under treatment for cancer.' Applause rang out among the crowd of around 1,500 guests as Mr Abbas said he had also battled cancer, adding that he hoped it would bring 'comfort' that he had been rid of the disease himself for 25 years. He added: 'I salute him for gracing this occasion, because by his presence here, he has gone a long way to make sure that his grandad's 14th Army is never given the sobriquet again of The Forgotten Army.' The ceremony was hosted by actress Celia Imrie and featured readings by actor Robert Lindsay and veterans, as well as musical performances from the National Children's Choir of Great Britain, Jennifer Pike and the Royal Corps of Signals Pipes and Drums.
