Katie Price fooled by simple maths trick she claims 'experts can't explain'

Katie Price suffered a major maths blunder after sharing a simple trick on Instagram.

The 44-year-old couldn't believe it as she posted the "amazing" sum online to her 2.6 million fans, falling for the popular prank.

Claiming to be "so strange", the former glamour model seemingly fell for the straightforward mathematics ploy, dressed up as a conundrum.

"Amazing! Everyone's age today is 2022," Katie shared with her followers. "Did you know that today the whole world is of the same age," the post read.

It adds: "Today is a very special day and only happens once every thousand years. Your age plus your year of birth, every person equals 2022."

The easy addition would always work out to be the current year, given that you had your birthday already – combining the number of years old you are with your birth year.

Katie's birthday was in May and she was born in 1978. So, combining 44 with 1978 equals 2022. However, before her birthday the simple sum wouldn't have added up.

"It's so strange", the post shared on Katie's feed adds. "Even experts can't explain it, you check it out and see if it's 2022. It has been waiting for a thousand years."

It comes as the mum-of-five headed out to Spain to work on a shoot for subscription-based platform OnlyFans earlier this week.

She took to Instagram on Monday to reveal to her followers in a video message that she was heading abroad for work.

The footage appeared to show Katie walking through an airport whilst wearing a pink crop top jumper, which featured Barbie branding, and a pair of black leggings.

Addressing her fans, she explained the clip: "What an exciting day. I'm on my way just to go to Spain, for a day, to do an OnlyFans shoot." "I love it," she teased.

Katie currently has more than 40,000 likes on her OnlyFans page and has made just over 300 posts since joining. It costs around £13 to subscribe to her page on the platform.

The I'm a Celebrity alum had been "excited" to join the subscription-based platform earlier this year, teasing at the time that she'd share "exclusive" content with subscribers.

"I am going to bare my soul and reveal lots of inside secrets - while having lots of fun in the process. There will of course be glamorous pictures," she said about it previously.

Katie said that it would be a place where she could feel "secure, confident, empowered and beautiful," as well as saying it was an opportunity to use her "own authentic voice."
