Katie Price, aka Jordan, granted a one-off, hour-long interview to Katie Price Exclusive with Piers Morgan for a reported fee of £100,000. The interview was to discuss the slew of bad press that Price had received after breaking up with her husband, Peter Andre, and subsequently spending the next eight weeks racketing around nightclubs in her pants, off her face on WKD, while he looked after the kids. Who woulda guessed it would all play out so bad?

Piers Morgan, who had a new, oddly pie-bald complexion — as if he’d fallen asleep under the sunlamp with a pair of goggles on — adopted a “stern” tone. He asked questions such as, “In the News of the World it was claimed that you and Pete didn’t have sex for two years. Is that true?” — as if the Andre-Price divorce were the assassination of JFK, and the tabloids had been triangulating the angle of the sex bullets.

Price replied by revealing that, in May, she had conceived and then miscarried Andre’s child. In a world where every piece of information about her life carries both a monetary worth, and a strategic weight, Price clearly considered putting this information down on the table as a good hand. The interview was a successful round of Divorce Battleships with her husband. Sympathy could be bought with the release of the information, to the 5.1 million people who watched.

The next day, PR Week announced that the interview had been “a success”, and that the public were, once more, “on Price’s side”.

The drama rolled on, to its next scheduled turning point.

In an interview with Piers Morgan  on ITV1  Katie admitted that she fell pregnant whilst filming in America but a scan in the UK revealed that she had miscarried the baby.

Katie told Piers:

“Even though [Pete and I] were still bickering and I shouldn’t have gone to America, we were happy because it’s a baby, it’s an amazing thing when you have a baby.”

Ten weeks into the pregnancy a scan revealed that the baby’s heart had stopped.

“(The doctor) was poking the thing around on my belly and it was moving, and he said that he can’t see a heartbeat but he said, ‘Let me check, so let me do some bloods (blood tests).’

Further tests indicated the fetus was still developing and Katie returned to the hospital three days later and it soon became clear that something was wrong:

She added: “I went in thinking: ‘He’s going to be great, he’s going to see a heartbeat’. And it was on the screen and you know they poke the thing around, he said: ‘No it’s, it’s died, it’s gone’.”

It is rumoured that Katie got paid £100,000 for the exclusive television interview.
