The pair, who have two children together, Princess Tiiaamii, two, and Junior, four (Harvey is from Katie’s previous relationship with footballer Dwight Yorke) will then have only six weeks to change their minds before a decree absolute is granted by the Family Division of the High Court in central London.

Peter, 36, is believed to have filed his papers first, but when Jordan – Katie Price – found out she also instructed her solicitors to take action.
