KATIE Price’s family “fear” for her after she “split” from boyfriend JJ Slater.
Rumours of trouble in paradise have been circling for months, but now it is being reported that the couple have “parted ways”, with those closest to Katie, 47, concerned she’ll “jump into another relationship”.
Yesterday it was reported that Katie and JJ have “split”, with the Married At First Sight star “moving out” of her home.
The former glamour girl has a long relationship history, and is known for going from one man to the next.
She has had high profile romances with Peter Andre, Carl woods and Alex Reid, to name but a few.
Despite telling her podcast listeners this week that she “doesn’t need a man”, Katie’s family are reportedly “concerned” that she will jump straight into another relationship now that things are “over” with JJ.
A source told the Mirror: “She always says the same thing [about being happy alone and not needing a man in her life] but she’ll be throwing herself into the next relationship.
“She wants to find a husband and can’t cope without being with a partner. It wouldn’t be surprising if she hasn’t got someone lined up already.”
Continuing, the insider added: “It will last three seconds. Her family are concerned she will throw herself deep into another relationship and put the pressure on again to get married, like she has with JJ.
“You can’t force someone to get married, you can’t force someone to love you.”
Addressing the “JJ split”, the source said: “This has been on the cards for a long time.
“She’s been pushing for marriage, wanting a guy that’s marriage material but the writing has been on the wall for a long time.”
Talking about other concerns her family have regarding her endless cosmetic surgery procedures, the source revealed: “Her family are very worried about her.
“There is a real problem there and they are worried she will die on the operating table, because she’s not strong enough.
“She isn’t strong enough for a general anaesthetic, let alone another procedure.”
Katie’s rep told The Sun they had “no comment” on these claims.
JJ ‘SPLIT’
Yesterday it was reported that after months of speculation, Katie and JJ had “split”.
It came after they put on a untied front on Boxing Day, following break-up rumours.
However, according to insiders, they have “broken up” after two years of dating.
A source told the Mail: “Katie has had doubts for some time about whether JJ is husband material, but she hoped those concerns would fade.
“Instead, her fears only grew, and she’s now accepted the relationship will not end with her walking down the aisle for a fourth time.
“JJ was left disappointed and has already packed his bags and moved back to his home in Essex.”
MEETING JJ
Katie and JJ began dating in late 2023, following her split from ex-fiancé Carl Woods.
She reportedly first reached out to him following his time on the E4 show, MAFS, though he’d previously messaged Katie years before calling her “fit”.
There was no overlap between JJ’s romance with ex Ella Morgan.
In February 2024, the duo confirmed that they had begun dating.
