Katie Price has shown off her Christmas present haul from boyfriend JJ Slater after setting the record straight about their relationship amid split rumours
Katie Price has shared off her Christmas gift from boyfriend JJ Slater despite spending Christmas apart amid fears they had separated, which the glamour model has since addressed.
The Married at First Sight star nowhere to be seen as Katie and eldest son Harvey Price spent the big day with newly-single friend Kerry Katona and her brood of children. Katie has now shown that there was some love at Christmas from JJ as she showed a bag of presents for the camera, which she shared on her Instagram Story.
Katie then went on to share a plethora of snaps of her and JJ having treatments at an aesthetics and piercings salon in Cheshire. Katie has been staying in the north west area as she appearing with Kerry in pantomime.
Celebrating the festive period, Kerry shared a photo of her children – Molly, Heidi, Max, Lilly-Sue, DJ – and Katie with her son Harvey, with them all in matching red pyjamas. Kerry’s caption read: “Merry Xmas from the Katona and price household,” wishing for dreams to come true, tagging @katieprice #merrychristmas and her children, alongside festive emojis.
JJ took to his own Instagram page to share a similarly Christmassy picture of himself and his loved ones in matching PJs. But amid the fears Katie and JJ are no more, representatives for Katie have informed the Mirror that the mum-of-five is still very much in a relationship with the reality TV star.
Earlier this month, Katie revealed that she made the first move with her current boyfriend after learning about his type 1 diabetes diagnosis. The reality star reached out to JJ, whose real name is John Joe, on Instagram after he went public with his condition earlier this year.
This led to a casual coffee date, which eventually blossomed into a romance. Katie shared that JJ had actually tried to contact her two years prior, but his message went unnoticed. In an interview with Woman’s Own, Katie explained that she wasn’t looking for love when she met JJ, but was drawn to him after reading about his diabetes diagnosis. She messaged him to offer her support, and they started talking.
Katie said: “I’d read in the paper that he’d got diabetes. I thought, ‘Wow, that’s quite harsh,’ as diabetes is a life-changing thing to have. I messaged and said, ‘I hope you’re okay with your diabetes’. And he said, ‘Oh, I’m really embarrassed.’ I went ‘Why? ‘ Turns out he’d messaged me two years ago but I never saw it. It must have been deleted so it was obviously meant to be.”
