Katie Price confesses she's been 'off the rails for more than ten years' and 'a mess'

Katie Price has admitted she has been slowly going off the rails for just over ten years, confessing she has been "a mess" at times.

Yummy mummy Katie, 41, who has publicly battled drink and drug problems, kidnap attempts, marriage splits and cancer, confessed she knows she will need therapy for life after her hellish decade.

Fans of the mum-of-five won't be able to help date her breakdown timeline to her very public split from first husband Peter Andre in 2009, they divorced in September that year.

Now brunette Katie, who went on to marry cage fighter Alex Reid in 2010 which ended in less than a year, and sex cheat Kieran Hayler in 2013, says she is finally ready to face her demons as she films her Quest Red TV show.

In a clip released on Saturday night, the star confesses: "I've been slowly going off the rails for just over ten years at times I have been a mess.

"Four weeks in hospital and some intensive therapy that will continue for the rest of my life. I've been to hell and back but I am starting to feel like me again."

Katie has always said she didn't want to split from first husband Pete, who went on to marry doctor Emily MacDonagh and have two children, Theo and Amelia.

She said she would always feel regrets over her split with her first husband, speaking last year Katie confessed: "And with Pete, I probably wouldn’t have done so much stuff in the media because I reckon we still would be together if certain people hadn’t been involved 100%."

As early as this year Katie's ex caretaker Charlie Farthing painted a bleak picture of Katie's life in her old 11 bedroom pile - revealing piles of dog poo everywhere, the stench of cat pee from her hairless moggy and gales whipping through the mansion after son Harvey smashed in windows.

But Charlie, who worked for the mum of five for four months, also worryingly tells how the star would come stumbling home after club nights with cash spilling out of her bag.

And, even more concerning, was the discovery of empty packets of drugs under a solitary mattress Katie slept on in the annexe of her West Sussex home.

Charlie told The Sun : “I was tidying up the annexe and I was moving the bed about and there were a couple of little bags, empty wraps that looked like they used to have coke in them so I suspected she’d used them at some point.

“I didn’t see her drink that much in the house, or take drugs, but when she came back from nights out she was clearly off her head, so I knew she was on something.”
