Katie Price and Peter Andre splitting up
By Ruth Doherty on Tuesday 12 May 2009
We're very sad to report that Katie Price and Peter Andre are set to split after four years of marriage.
The celebrity couple – whose exploits in America are currently being shown in ITV2's Katie & Peter: Stateside – have decided to call it quits, despite appearing to be madly in love.

The couple's management have confirmed the split in a statement saying they 'have both requested that the media respect their families' privacy at this difficult time'.
The pressure may have been showing on Friday night as Katie enjoyed a seemingly boozy night out without Peter, but the pair did reunite for dinner at Nobu on Saturday.
They also made a public appearance together at last night's British Soap Awards, where they both presented a gong.
The couple first met when they starred on 2004's I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here, and have two children, Junior, three, and 16-month-old Princess Tiáamii, together.
Here's to hoping they'll sort their problems out.

I am so sad to hear this, i feel the show plays a huge part in their split and i hope they can work it out. They make a great couple. It must be huge pressure being in the media all the time. My heart goes out to them.

Well if Peter Andre is anything like Amy Winehouse then at least his new album might be good with all the material on the back of the split.........or not.......

This is probably the biggest natural disaster since hurricane Katrina - possibly worse!! I'll still buy the OK! special on it though.
Comment by Nick on May 11 16:37
i'm not suprised. All they ever did was have mad raging arguments in "Stateside" is to be believed!
Comment by mona on May 11 16:50
I am really shocked about this news! I really thought that some people actually stay together! I they did genuinely look so happy together. I hope they can work things out x

I'm really sad for the couple and their family. I do hope that they can sort things out, if not for themselves but for the children who really suffer during break ups.

I doubt there are two people who earn the title of celebrity any less than these waste of space. But they should be applauded for knowing how to milk the public's appetite for it. It's always sad when a couple break up though....

Being in the media eye evry time your out must be a strain but they should try relate or some sort of marriage counciing it can work for me.sad times for them and the children.Good luck for the future xx

Don't believe it; probably ANOTHER publicity stunt by Jordan, though, if true, not surprised P A fed up by the seemingly endless cynical vacuosity!!!

what no one can see is that this marriage has been a lucrative deal from the begining, their managers brought them together and told them they have the chance of making big money out of tv and magazine deals if they become a couple. peter andre was no one and this was his chance to make some money and get into the limelight, so they got toghether, they got married, and every time something ahppened in their life they sold the even top the press for lots of money , includinf the story of their kids birth etc, is 4 yaers now, they made enough money from their beneficial agreement so they can split up now and split the money they made in 4 years. even if peter doesnt take anything from jordans money from before the marraige it is enough for both of them to have a great life only of the earnings of the last 4 years. cant anyone see that please?

Well I can't say I'm not too surprised, but Peter did have to put up with quite a lot of grief from Katie (as portrayed in their tv shows). I hope though that this is not a publicity stunt as there are children involved. I hope that Pete still has an active role in their upbringing.

Blimey, Jordan in keeping some part of her life private shocker! Whatever next, she visits the toilet without the cameras following her every move?
Comment by Mrs O on May 11 17:17
Oh my God!!! I said OMG! I'm soooooo upset about this, I love Pete & Jordan and their show is the best thing on TV, I'm from Canada and I'm soooo happy that they've come over to the US.....what will I do now...i feel so alone.

I love these two, its a shame they are splitting up as there kids are gorgeous. Always think the grass in greener but it ain't.
Comment by Elaine on May 11 17:25
I'm surprised that it's only 4 years! We've seen so much of them, I thought they'd been together for an eterniy! Agree with the previous comment that the publicity seeking is probably responsible for their breakdown. At least there won't be more fly-on-the-wall docu-soaps from the Andre's! Yippeee.....
Comment by Margaret on May 11 17:26
I like the bit that they want their privacy respected after making loads of money off the back of their family life...now all of a sudden they find that privacy is very important! "Price"-less!

does this mean my souvenir copies of OK magazine featuring their 'Cinderalla' wedding will be worth more or less on Ebay ?
Comment by S Rodgers on May 11 17:56
Awwwwww, how sad. I am sure they really do love each other and i hope they sort it out for the sake of their gorgeous kids, if nothing else.FIGHT FOR EACH OTHER PETER AND KATIE!!!!!!

Comment by jo on May 11 21:45
What will OK magazine do now! Still no doubt they'll keep it running for a few more months (just like they did with Jade). I'm not sure why people are sad to hear this - it's not like they're your best friends or anything.
Comment by Dee on May 11 22:30
Ah!! thats a shame, i quite like them two, even though they were sometimes annoying to watch on tele, but thats the media for you! hope all goes well for them and the children!
Comment by Angela on May 11 22:55
I'm devastated about their split, I thought it would last forever, I told my girl our relationship was always going to be as strong as theirs, now I'm thinking of looking up Diana Vickers before that Andre bloke gets in there!
Comment by Jamie Butel on May 12 09:44
Is it really true, or is it just for the media to be in the papers all over again???? I would not be suprised if they get back together again soon and sell their big newly found love to the papers.........
