Princess Andre has stated she does not pay attention to her mother Katie Price's highly publicized romantic life, describing it as "extreme." In an episode of her reality series, "The Princess Diaries," Andre shared that she is not closely following her mother's current relationship, especially after Price's marriage to Lee Andrews earlier this year.
"Mum's love life stories are quite extreme and honestly I don't even follow it myself, but as long as my mum's happy, we're happy, and that's all that matters," Andre said. Price married Andrews in January after a whirlwind romance. Andrews has since faced accusations of scamming exes and has been under a travel ban, preventing him from leaving Dubai.
Andre also reflected on the impact of a tell-all documentary, "Katie Price: Nothing To Hide," which featured Princess and her brother Junior discussing their difficult childhood. She described the documentary as having put her and Junior in a "really awkward situation," as they navigated supporting both parents.
Childhood Challenges
In the documentary, Princess and Junior described being young when their mother experienced a public breakdown, including struggles with depression and cocaine addiction following her divorce from Kieran Hayler. At the time, Princess was 10 and Junior was 13. They recounted periods where they felt they had to fend for themselves and their younger siblings, Jett and Bunny.
Junior recalled the difficulty of the situation, stating, "That was probably the most difficult time of my life, our lives." Princess added, "I didn't know what was going on and I couldn't talk to mum about it because she wasn't there." Junior also shared memories of trying to prepare microwaveable meals for them and feeling scared when he witnessed his mother under the influence of drugs.
Princess explained that she stayed with her mother longer than Junior, who moved in with their father, Peter Andre, at age 14. "I always wanted to be there for her but she didn't understand that at the time because she was so hooked up in her own problems," Princess said. Junior credited his father's stable environment for helping him regain his sanity.
Family Dynamics and Truce
This season of "The Princess Diaries" marks the first time both Katie Price and Peter Andre will appear in the show together. Princess noted that this appearance solidifies the truce between her parents, who had a public feud for years after their divorce in 2009. "The statement, I think it was a long time coming. It's been a thing that's just been happening for ages. I think everyone has got over certain things, and just to make everyone's life easier, make a truce so that no one can say anything bad," Princess stated.
She described her mother as "a character" with "no filter," making filming with her amusing. "You just see what we're all like individually and us together," she added.
In a recent episode, Princess also made her debut as a presenter on "This Morning," focusing on prom dress shopping. The siblings also spent time with their elder brother Harvey, who has Prader-Willi syndrome, autism, and septo-optic dysplasia, while their mother was in Dubai. The episode showed Princess and Junior FaceTiming their mother to discuss their day with Harvey.
