Biography for Jordan (Katie Price)

Katrina Amy Alexandria Alexis Infield Price (born on 22 May 1978 (32 years ago)), also known as Jordan, is a former English glamour model, television personality and businesswoman. Her personal life is regularly featured in British tabloids and celebrity-based magazines.

Early years

Katrina Amy Alexandria Alexis Infield was born and raised in Brighton, England. Her maternal grandmother is Jewish. She took the surname Price after her mother remarried following the split from her biological father when she was a child. Price has an older brother named Daniel and a younger half sister, Sophie Price. She also attended secondary school at Blatchington Mill Secondary School which she later revisited for a TV show called "With a Little Help from My Friends".

Her decision to start modelling came after a friend suggested she have some professional photographs done. The pictures (wallpaper) were sent to a modelling agency in London, and to her surprise, The Agency (4 walls) invited her into their studios for a photo (wallpaper) shoot and to discuss a contract. She began appearing on Page 3 of the The Sun newspaper (topless modelling).

Career

Modelling

Despite frequent appearances on Page 3 and in men's lifestyle magazines, Jordan was insecure about the size of her breasts, believing that breast implants would make her look better. Despite protests from friends and family, Jordan underwent the operation, increasing her cup size from a B to an F.

Politics

During the 7 Jun. 2001 (9 years ago), British General Election, Jordan ran as a candidate in Stretford and Urmston under her real name using the slogan: 'For a Bigger and Betta Future'. As part of her comical election campaign, she promised free breast implants, more nudist beaches, and a ban on parking tickets. In the end, Jordan won 713 votes, 1.8% of the votes cast.

TV

In an attempt to cross over from modelling to other areas, Price auditioned for a part on the television series Baywatch in 1998 (12 years ago), guest presented The Big Breakfast and played herself in an episode of Dream Team.

Jordan began 2004 (6 years ago) by appearing (as Katie Price which she prefers to be known while not modelling) on the reality TV series I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!, alternately falling out with John Lydon and flirting in the jungle with singer Peter Andre whom she eventually married. She appeared in several Bushtucker trials, including one where she had to brave a tank full of small, harmless jellyfish for points. Although she performed well, she gave up on account of the creatures becoming trapped in her bikini, prompting her to drag herself out of the water in hysterics. Price appeared on Top Gear's Star in a Reasonably Priced Car on 23 May 2004 (6 years ago). She completed the lap in 1min 52secs. She also made a cameo appearance playing herself in an episode of the television drama series Footballers' Wives and appeared in the programme Jordan Gets Even for Five.

She appeared in the documentaries Jordan: Living With a dream (Channel 4), Jordan: The Truth About Me, Jordan: Model Mum, Jordan: You Don't Even Know Me (BBC Choice), Jordan Gets Even (Five) and the series When Jordan Met Peter (ITV), Jordan & Peter: Laid Bare (ITV2), Jordan & Peter: Marriage and Mayhem (ITV2), and the Katie & Peter series, including Katie & Peter: The Next Chapter (ITV2) and Katie & Peter: The Baby Diaries. Katie & Peter was also shown in the United States; it aired on E!.

In summer 2005 (5 years ago), Jordan was one of many guest hosts of the first series of The Friday Night Project. In Dec. 2005 (5 years ago) she released an exercise fitness DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) The Jordan Workout featuring "The Juice Master" Jason Vale.

Katie & Peter: Unleashed began on Friday 19 Oct. 2007 (3 years ago) at 9pm on ITV2. A new series titled, Katie & Peter: The Next Chapter Down Under aired on ITV2 on 27 Mar. 2008 (2 years ago) at 9pm running for 13 weeks.

On 5 Mar. 2005 (5 years ago), singing a song titled "Not Just Anybody", wearing a skin-tight latex pink catsuit whilst heavily pregnant, coming in second place in the pre-selection show Making Your Mind Up, behind Javine.

Published works

To coincide with her appearance on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! earlier in the year, Price released the first of three autobiographies – Being Jordan – in May of 2004 (6 years ago). Initially turned down by the mainstream publishing houses after demanding a £1 million advance, she was eventually signed up by small independent publisher John Blake, a former tabloid journalist, for £10,000 plus royalties. In a departure from industry norms, she conducted a 10 day book signing tour which provoked enough interest—contrary to expectations, almost exclusively female—to propel her to first position in the Nielsen BookScan hardback sales chart and to sell 97,090 copies in little over a year and over one million, as of Jan. 2007 (3 years ago).

Her second autobiography – Jordan: A Whole New World – detailing her wedding and family life - reached number two in the hardback general category, selling 198,105 copies by 1 Apr. 2006 (4 years ago). Price's third autobiography Pushed to the Limit was released in Feb. 2008 (2 years ago).

Her second ghostwritten novel, Crystal, about a young woman's efforts to become a singer, sold 159,407 copies during the first three months after its release in Jun. 2007 (3 years ago). All four books were ghostwritten by Rebecca Farnworth.

In 2006 (4 years ago) Price signed a £300,000 advance with Random House for Katie Price's Perfect Ponies, a series of children's books, with the first 6 released in 2007 (3 years ago). Three more books have been released throughout 2008 (2 years ago).[dead link] A title from that series, My Pony Care Book, was nominated for the WH Smith's Children's Book of the Year. In 2008 (2 years ago), she released a new children's book series entitled Mermaids & Pirates, with six in the series. Four more are expected for release in Apr. 2008 (2 years ago).

Price continues to write a regular advice column in OK! magazine.

In 2009 (last year), Price released a novel entitled Sapphire which has been NO1 on the hardback fiction chart for 4 consecutive weeks and sold 42,215 copies in its first two weeks in the UK alone.

Endorsements

In Oct. 2003 (7 years ago), Price appeared in an advertising campaign for the supermarket chain Kwik Save. To publicise the chain's promotion to cut the prices of their leading lines in half, Price was sawn in half by magician Peter McCahon.

In Nov. 2006 (4 years ago), Price launched The Katie Price Lingerie Collection in conjunction with Panache, available exclusively at Asda stores, as well as a follow-up jewellery deal with Argos.

In 2007 (3 years ago), Price was announced as the new face of Foxy Bingo and launched a hair care range at Superdrug. She also brought out her first perfume, 'Stunning', in August. Her second perfume, 'Besotted', was released in Sep. 2008 (2 years ago). Nov. 2007 (3 years ago) saw Price releasing her 'Jordan' hair care electrical range at Superdrug. There was a hairdryer, straighteners and curlers. She released a second, similar range in Nov. 2008 (2 years ago) under the name 'Katie Price', to somewhat differing design.

In 2008 (2 years ago), Price signed a deal with Derby House to launch her equestrian range named 'KP Equestrian'. On Mar. 23, Price launched her springwear of KP Equestrian as well as KP Pony, which is for children.

Wealth

In Oct. 2006 (4 years ago), an article was published in The Daily Mail called The Chav Rich List. Price and her husband Peter Andre were ranked at #2, second only to David and Victoria Beckham.

In 2009 (last year) it was reported she had earned £6.5 million with £4.5 million earned the previous year taking her total wealth to a reported £40 million. Price has raised over £1 million for Vision Charity.

Personal life

Price embarked on several brief relationships with celebrities and sports stars including footballers Teddy Sheringham, Dwight Yorke, singer Gareth Gates, and the TV Gladiator 'Ace' (real name Warren Furman). Jordan had a much publicised relationship with Dane Bowers of the boy band Another Level. She had an abortion after discovering he had cheated on her.

On 27 May 2002 (8 years ago), she gave birth in Brighton to her first son, Harvey. Harvey's father is the Sunderland footballer Dwight Yorke. Jordan has said she had intended to have at least one birth shown live over the Internet, but she later decided to keep it private. He was found to be blind, having a condition known as septo-optic dysplasia, meaning that the development of his optic nerve was unpredictable. As he has matured, she has also discovered that he is on the autistic spectrum, gains weight easily, and finds walking difficult.

In 2003 (7 years ago), Price was treated for cancer. She had a leiomyosarcoma on her finger and the tumour was removed at a Nuffield Hospital near her Brighton home.

In Feb. 2005 (5 years ago), Price announced that she was five months pregnant, with Peter Andre's child. Price gave birth in Westminster, London, by Caesarean section to her second child, a 5lb 13oz (2,636 g) boy named Junior Savva Andreas Andre, on 13 Jun. 2005 (5 years ago). On 10 Sep. 2005 (5 years ago), she married Andre at Highclere Castle, Hampshire. In Jul. 2006 (4 years ago), it was announced that she had suffered a miscarriage. On 29 Jun. 2007 (3 years ago), Price gave birth to her third child, a daughter named Princess Tiaamii Crystal Esther Andre.

In Dec. 2007 (3 years ago), Price underwent surgery in the U.S. to reduce the size of her breast implants and also had rhinoplasty. However, she was not happy with the results of her breast implants, so returned to Beverly Hills, California in Jul. 2008 (2 years ago) for corrective surgery. She returned to the UK five days later, showing off much smaller breasts, a size 32C.

On 15 May 2009 (last year), Andre and Price announced that they were separating after three and a half years of marriage.

In a TV interview with Piers Morgan in Jul. 2009 (last year), Price claimed that their break-up was partly due to Andre's jealousy over her relationship with dressage trainer Andrew Gould, which she claimed was entirely platonic. However the final nail came when she was photographed in a Bristol nightclub after they had agreed that they would not go out without each other. She also revealed that she had recently miscarried.

As of Jul. 2009 (last year) Katie has been dating cage fighter and former Hollyoaks actor Alex Reid.
