Katie Price shared a telling post on social media after naming the British TV star she alleges raped her two decades ago.
The former glamour model, 47, dropped the bombshell while onstage in Stockport on Tuesday during her UK theatre tour with Kerry Katona.
Price had never previously revealed the identity of the television star, who she claims sexually assaulted her more than 20 years ago.
In the wake of the shocking revelation, the reality star shared a cryptic post on her Instagram Story that alluded to making the most of life.
She posted a sketch depicting a young girl looking into a mirror, with an old woman staring back in the reflection alongside the text: “It is only a short trip, enjoy it.”
Price also shared several videos on Snapchat of herself going to a hair salon to get extensions put in and so her son Harvey, 23, could get his hair cut.
On Wednesday, it was reported that Price named her alleged attacker during a show on her An Evening with Katie Price and Kerry Katona tour.
The 38-date tour sees the pair share candid stories about their lives and careers with fans across the country.
According to attendees, she spoke about being assaulted over twenty years ago. Her comments reportedly came after a similar discussion at an earlier date in Bradford, where she told fans she had been attacked by a well-known British celebrity.
Price has mentioned the incident several times over the years. In 2009 and again in 2012, she said she would “never” name the man involved, telling fans she wanted to avoid the “drama” that would follow.
At the time, Surrey Police confirmed that no formal complaint had been made, but that an incident had been recorded.
“Surrey Police treats all reports of sexual offences very seriously and investigates them thoroughly, encouraging anyone who may have been a victim to come forward and providing specialist officers to support them,” a spokesperson said in a 2012 statement.
They added that the matter could not be pursued further without a formal allegation.
“Based on our inquiries and the lack of substantiated information – particularly around locations and dates of any allegations – we have recorded an incident, but due to its very historic nature we are dependent on Miss Price’s co-operation to formally record a crime and continue any investigation,” they stated.
The revelation came amid a turbulent time on the tour, which has been described as unpredictable and often chaotic.
Earlier this week, Price was more than two hours late to a show at Whitley Bay’s Playhouse, forcing her friend Katona to kick off the evening alone.
Organisers said the event had been delayed due to “technical difficulties”, though Price later told fans she had been delayed by caring responsibilities for Harvey.
