Katie Price has once again ignited public tensions with ex-husband Peter Andre, accusing him of controlling major decisions involving their children, Princess and Junior. The claims surfaced in two separate podcast episodes and media reports, adding a new chapter to their ongoing co-parenting feud. As the drama intensifies, public attention has shifted back toward Peter Andre’s role in Princess Andre’s growing career, and how the former couple continues to clash over parenting rights.
In the latest wave of revelations, Katie suggested she has been sidelined from key decisions, including Princess’s ITV show, The Princess Diaries. The tension now places Peter Andre squarely at the centre of the feud, despite his decision to remain largely silent in public.
Katie Price Claims She’s Being “Dictated To” Over Parenting Choices
During her newest podcast episode, Katie voiced frustration over what she called a lack of “mother’s rights,” strongly implying that Peter Andre limits her involvement. She shared that major decisions involving Princess and Junior are allegedly being made without her input, something she described as “hurtful.”
Katie explained that she finds it distressing when others “dictate” what her children do, insisting that a mother should have emotional and legal involvement. According to Katie, she will “always be their mother,” suggesting she feels pushed aside as Princess’s career continues to rise.
These comments come after reports that Katie was barred from participating in Princess’s ITV series, despite being approached only for archival footage. She claimed Peter and his wife Emily turned down the suggestion of allowing her to film new moments with her daughter.

Earlier coverage revealed that Peter Andre and his wife Emily withdrew from filming the second series of Princess’s reality programme. This decision confused fans and escalated tensions between the exes. When asked whether the producers should have included Katie more directly, Katie said she even offered to film scenes “for nothing,” but the suggestion was rejected.
The move has further strained the family dynamic. Princess, meanwhile, has chosen to stay neutral, avoiding public posts about her parents and focusing entirely on her career.

In a separate podcast episode covered by The Sun, Katie criticised Princess for distancing herself from family drama, even accusing her of a “brutal snub.” Katie said she would be attending events not with Princess, but with another celebrity child, Kerry Katona’s daughter, Heidi, who will reportedly stay with her for a month.
Katie’s remarks suggested resentment that Princess spends time with Heidi privately but avoids attending events with her own mother. The conflict has now extended into public mother-daughter tension, adding another painful layer to the ongoing dispute with Peter Andre.
A Long History of Conflict Between Peter Andre and Katie Price
Peter Andre and Katie Price first met in 2004 on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! and married shortly after in 2005. Since their divorce in 2009, the pair have publicly clashed multiple times over co-parenting, media appearances, and the involvement of third parties in their children’s careers.
Despite the turbulence, Princess and Junior continue to forge successful media paths, often navigating the fallout from both parents’ public comments.
As the feud resurfaces, fans are now watching closely to see if Peter Andre will respond or continue his long-standing silence in the face of accusations.
