Princess said to her: “For my official launch, I will probably just invite close family and friends.”
Katie went quiet as she replied: “Yeah… I mean, I still haven’t met up with your dad face-to-face yet.
“It is weird, isn’t it?”
Princess agreed before adding: “But everything happens for a reason1”
Katie then appeared to take a swipe at Peter and their split as she added: “Does it?
“I think some things could have been avoided but it is what it is and you just move on.”
Princess nevously smiled after her mum’s comments before the conversation drew to a quick close.
Later on, Princess told brother Junior of her latest plan.
Before their chat, Princess told the camera: “It is so important for me that for my official launch, I have as many friends and family there as possible.”
She then said to Junior and his girlfriend: “Mum and Dad are in a truce now so I am just gonna invite Mum and Dad and whoever wants to come, comes.
“It might be quite awkward though.”
Junior appeared unconvinced by the plan as he replied: “Yeah, their first time in a room?
“When I used to perform, I never invited mum and dad to one show so it could be good and they’ve got a truce.
“And it is about you and supporting you so yeah, I love that.”

“I’ve never met him but mum’s love life is everywhere at the moment.

At the time, hisrep toldMetrothat Lee’s claims were “categorically untrue” and are “yet another lie” from the self-proclaimed business man.
Since then, former glamour model Katie has been presented with anexplosive dossier from The Sun’s Clemmie Moodiecovering her spouse’s misdemeanours – including his mental health lies and damning texts.
Failed actor is just another title to add toLee’s questionable CV, after he claimed to have once worked as the Director of Philanthropy at The Prince’s Trust (now The King’s Trust)
Lee also shared images – since proven to be AI – of him working with Elon Musk and Kim Kardashian
It’s been revealed shameless Lee told former girlfriends that he had studied at Cambridge University, and has a PhD in biotechnology science
But The Sun has seen a response from the university explaining it could not find a record of Lee being registered as a student with a date of birth they had provided
His LinkedIn profile says Lee has been a Member of the Board of Advisors to the Labour Party since 2015
Lee was also mocked for repeating theexact same wedding proposalon Katie – that he did for another woman just four months ago.
Clemmie also confirmed in her in-depth article that Katie is refusing to return to Dubai – where Lee lives and is currently locked up in prison.
Speaking on the latest episode of her podcast, Katie addressed the video and insisted she has no knowledge of it – but said finds the whole things “ridiculous” and “overwhelming”.
She said: “I commented when he went missing but he’s in prison and I will be questioning him about a lot of things when he’s out. I’m just getting on doing what I’m doing.
“There is so much, there is no smoke without fire.”
Lee has also claimed that he has degrees from some of the UK’s top universities, including Cambridge, but the institution quickly clarified that they had no trace of Lee having ever attended as a student.
KATIE Price has shared a sweet snap from a day out with her boys after Princess broke her silence on the former glamour model’s truce with their dad Peter Andre.

It said they’d reached an “understanding” and they wanted to focus on “creating a calm and supportive environment” for Junior and Princess.
Katie will appear in the first episode of Princess’ show, taking a glamping trip with her children to celebrate her birthday.
But, we are some way off ever seeing the former glamour model and her singer ex on screen together.
Princess said: “To be honest, I don’t think that would happen anyway. I don’t think divorced parents would sit in a room and have a conversation, but it’s not to say it would never happen.”
Junior, 21, went on: “The main thing is, it’s amicable. They’ve got a truce, but they’re not best friends and they don’t need to be.
“The fact that they’re both in it is great because it’s our parents. We love them, and want everyone to be involved. But yeah, they don’t need to cross paths.”
Princess told how she values having her loved ones on the show, adding: “It is way more fun for me . . . because I like having my family there.
“I guess it shows people they are calm — that yes, they’re not best friends but they don’t need to be.”
THE Prince and Princess Of Wales have paid tribute to singer Bonnie Tyler, describing her as a “proud Welsh icon” following her death aged 75.
Bonnie died on Wednesday night, months after being treated in intensive care and being placed in an induced coma following emergency intestinal surgery.

A post on William and Kate’s joint Kensington Palace account said: “We are deeply saddened by the passing of Bonnie Tyler.
“A proud Welsh icon, her extraordinary voice and unforgettable music touched millions around the world and will continue to inspire generations to come.

Thank you!
“Our thoughts are with her husband, family, friends and all who loved her. Diolch am y gerddoriaeth (thank you for the music).”
Bonnie was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) by the Prince Of Wales in 2023 for services to music.
It comes after Chicago star Catherine Zeta-Jones said her “heart is broken” after the Total Eclipse Of The Heart singer’s death.
Catherine, 56, said Bonnie was a big part of her life after marrying her cousin Robert Sullivan and paid a heartfelt tribute to the Welsh singer, real name Gaynor Hopkins.
The actress shared a photograph of the pair together on Instagram which was taken the night before her wedding.
She said: “An extraordinary woman with vocals to match. A one of kind artist, who so easily could have been a comedian because she was one of the funniest people I ever met.
“Thank you Bonnie for the joy you brought so many. Sleep tight beautiful lady. We shall forever ‘Keep A Welcome In The Hillsides’ of Wales for you. Sending my love to Robert and the family.”
A statement on the singer’s official website said her family and team were “heartbroken” after she “unexpectedly passed away” on Wednesday night in a hospital in Portugal where she was being treated near her home in Faro.
Catherine was among the stars who paid tribute to the singer including Sir Cliff Richard, Sir Rod Stewart and rockstar Bryan Adams.
Sir Cliff, who sang a duet with Tyler on the 2019 song Taking Control, said she was a “wonderful friend gone too soon” in a post shared on Facebook.
He added: “Bonnie’s infectious zest for life entertained so many around the world, and to be a good friend to all, including me.
“It is shocking news to wake up to this morning and I send my love to her family at this very sad time.”
Bonnie was due to perform at the Sunshine Festival in Worcester this summer, along with a number of European dates, and was also booked to perform at Cardiff’s Utilita Arena on December 17.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer also paid tribute to the singer, who he described as “one of Britain’s greatest recording artists”.
The Prime Minister’s official spokesman said: “An iconic figure, she leaves behind a catalogue of music – from Total Eclipse Of The Heart to Holding Out For A Hero – which continues to touch lives, flood dance floors and fill karaoke booths.”
He added: “The Prime Minister’s thoughts are very much with her friends and family.”
The singer achieved international fame in the 1980s with the release of Total Eclipse Of The Heart, which shot to the top of the charts in the UK and the US.
Faster Than The Speed of Night, the album which featured the smash-hit track, was also a chart-topping success and landed the singer her only UK number one album.
Recognisable for her husky voice, Bonnie released many other hit songs over the years including Holding Out For A Hero, It’s A Heartache and If You Were A Woman (And I Was A Man).
Welsh First Minister Rhun ap Iorwerth led tributes on Thursday and said Wales had “lost a true icon”.
He posted: “I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Bonnie Tyler.
“Wales has lost a true icon, whose music brought joy to so many.
“I extend my heartfelt condolences to her family, friends and fans across the world.”
She represented the UK in the 2013 Eurovision Song Contest in Malmo, Sweden, with the song Believe In Me finishing in 19th place.
Welsh broadcaster Carol Vorderman also paid tribute, writing: “I’m so very sorry to hear this. As a Welsh woman Bonnie and her music represented so much to us, it was about fighting and power and living life without apology.
“May you rest in Musical Glory Bonnie.”
The star, who was born in Neath in South Wales, continued to make music and perform until her death, having released her 18th studio album The Best Is Yet To Come in 2021.
Despite being a widely acclaimed and globally-renowned star, Bonnie never received a Grammy Award during her decades-long career but did receive three nominations.
Bonnie’s official website appears to have crashed since the news of her death was announced.

News broke of Princess’ business venture last year following her second deal with high street giant Superdrug, as the face of their affordable cosmetics line, Studio London.
But now the star is ready to step out on her own and launch her own makeup line.
An insider at the time said: “Princess loves everything to do with make-up and people love her ‘get ready with me’ videos.
“It’s very savvy of the teen to launch her own line, she knows everyone always wants to know what she’s using, so why not make her own?”
IT’S been five years since Britney Spears was released from her conservatorship following the Free Britney campaign, but insiders say the pop superstar is more lost than ever.

It’s a far cry from the 16-year-old who took over the world in 1998 with her debut single Baby One More Time, which catapulted her to instant worldwide fame.
An insider said: “Some people close to Britney can’t help wondering whether she’s actually happier now than she was then.
“The sad reality is that she seems incredibly isolated. She spends most of her time at home and her world has become smaller and smaller over the years.

“Those around her would love to see her thriving, but instead they worry she’s become increasingly detached from everyone else.”
In 2023, Britney split from her third husband Sam Asghari – less than a year after tying the knot – and we’re told the break-up had a huge impact on the mum-of-two.
She shares Sean Preston, 20, and Jayden James, 19, with ex-husband Kevin Federline and has struggled with a strained relationship with her sons for years.
Our source said: “The divorce hit her hard and she hasn’t appeared to find the stability or companionship she craves and desperately needs.
“Her relationship with her sons has also been a source of sadness over the years, and those closest to her know how much that weighs on her.
“People are worried rather than reassured, especially when they see her on social media. The videos and posts leave people concerned and scratching their heads, it looks like we’re seeing someone who is still struggling.”
Despite being one of the best-selling music artists of all time, Britney left fans gutted in 2022 when she insisted she’ll “probably never perform again”.
She said on social media at the time: “I’m pretty traumatized for life and yes I’m p****d as f**k and no I probably won’t perform again just because I’m stubborn and I will make my point.”
And it’s the lack of ambition for performing – something she once thrived on – that has pals seriously concerned and wondering what she’ll do with her life if she doesn’t return to the stage.
“The overwhelming feeling among those who care about her is sadness,” our insider said. “Nobody is questioning her right to live life on her own terms, but there are fears that she’s still searching for happiness and hasn’t found the peace that everyone hoped freedom would bring.
“They look at Britney and see a woman who appears deeply lonely, increasingly disconnected and still trying to find her place in the world all these years later.”
Marius Borg Hoiby has been found guilty of two counts of rape and other charges and sentenced to four years in prison. Hoiby is the son of Norway’s Crown Princess Mette-Marit but is not a member of the royal family. File Photo by Lise Aserud/EPA
June 15 (UPI) — Marius Borg Hoiby has been found guilty of two counts of rape and other charges and sentenced to four years in prison.
Hoiby, the son of Norway’s Crown Princess Mette-Marit, has also been convicted for domestic violence, violent threats and filming people without their consent. He pleaded guilty to assault, harassment and malicious damage to property but denied four counts of rape.
While Hoiby is the eldest son of the crown princess and stepson to Norway’s heir, he is not a member of the royal family.
Hoiby faced two more counts of rape but the three judges at the Oslo District Court acquitted him on those counts. However, he is ordered to pay damages to the four women who accused him of rape in the amount of nearly $61,000.
Hoiby’s attorneys have pleaded for his release from prison so he can be with his mother who has been diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis and is seeking a lung transplant. The Oslo District Court granted his release last week but the decision was overturned on appeal.
Earlier this year, it was revealed in a tranche of files released by the U.S. Department of Justice that Mette-Mait had a three-year friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Prosecutors in the case sought a sentence of seven years in prison for the 39 charges Hoiby faced. They also wanted Hoiby banned from communicating with one of the alleged victims and to have several of his devices confiscated, including three iPhones and a MacBook.
In the case of all four rape charges, the victims were either asleep or incapacitated.
The allegations against Hoiby involved six women. One of them testified that she was incapacitated or asleep when Hoiby raped her in March 2024.
Hoiby also admitted to transporting marijuana.

Thousands of mourners lined Bangkok streets as the body of Princess Bajrakitiyabha, daughter of Thailand’s king, was brought to the Grand Palace in a royal procession. The 47-year-old princess had been in a coma for more than three years before dying from an abdominal infection.

June 10 (UPI) — A Norwegian appeals court has denied a request from Marius Borg Høiby, son of Norwegian Crown Princess Mette-Merit, to leave custody because of his mothers’ illness. Høiby is behind bars while he awaits a verdict in his rape trial.
The court overturned a verdict by a lower court Monday that had ordered Høiby’s release before the verdict, which is expected June 15. Hoiby, 29, is facing 40 criminal charges and has been in custody since February.
Princess Mette-Merit, 52, has pulmonary fibrosis, a chronic lung condition, The BBC reported. Her doctors added her to a lung transplant list last week.
“We are very, very disappointed. I find the decision almost incomprehensible,” defense lawyer Ellen Holager Andenæs said to Norwegian news outlet VG, as cited by Nine.com.au.
Høiby had told the lower court that “sitting inside while I know Mum is so sick is unbearable,” The BBC said.
Høiby was detained before his trial after new allegations of assault and violating a restraining order. The appeals court disagreed with the lower court that had ordered his release, saying his risk of reoffending was “virtually unchanged” since its earlier decision.
“As the Court of Appeals sees it, this is not a question of will, but a question of ability, lifestyle and risk factors,” the ruling said. It noted that Høiby is not the only one in prison with a family member affected by serious illness and will not receive special treatment.
Høiby denies four counts of rape but had admitted to lesser charges such as drug possession and traffic offenses. The judges are also considering charges of violence, threats and abusive behavior within a relationship.
Høiby was born before his mother married Norwegian Crown Prince Haakon and is not a member of the royal family. He was first arrested in August 2024.

The self-proclaimed businessman disappeared last week, withhis wife Katie claiming he had been “kidnapped” and confirming earlier today she still hasn’t heard from him in almost a week.
Lee told Katie in a voicenote that he needed an “exit stamp” to leave Dubai when he was claiming to be coming back to the UK.
But after he failed to get on a plane, Katie sensationally claimed he had been kidnapped and that the last she’d heard from him, he was in the back of a van with cable ties on his arms.
A source close to the ex glamour model told us earlier this week: “Leeis officially amissing personnow.
At the weekend, Katie said: “I know there is all this speculation but something really serious has happened.”
Asked if she had a message for those who knew Lee’s whereabouts, Trisha, who has filed a Missing Persons report with the British Embassy, told The Sun: “Please bring my son back.”
