Fresh from her split from Alex Reid, Katie made a statement at her book launch in a rather unusual hat!

Ah, the ever shy and retiring Katie Price - you never let us down...

She may be fresh from announcing her split from hubbie, Alex Reid, but the one-woman publicity machine isn't one to slink into hiding. Instead, she hit a book signing for her latest tome and ensured all eyes were on her, in a rather unusual hat.

The scary hairy item in question was part afro, part head-warmer, adding a Tina Turner edge to Ms P's dress-down styling. Add a fur stole into the mix and Katie was looking more animal kingdom than lady author.

Of course, there were the obligatory hints that Katie's going through a tough time - gone were the plunging necklines and skintight catsuits, and she covered up in joggers, moon boots and a fur shrug.

Now it might not live up to our personal favourite Katie fashion moment - remember that space lady iPod enseble? - but it's certainly a classic!
