Peter Andre and Katie Price’s daughter Princess has finally broken her silence after her father released a statement aimed at her ex-wife.
The 18-year-old hosted a Q&A session on Snapchat on Friday, in which she was asked by one fan whether her parents not getting along has affected her.
“To be honest it doesn’t affect me. At the end of the day, they broke up when I was two years old so I don’t even have any memory of them being together,” she said.
She wrote alongside the video: “I love my mum and dad and that’s all that matters.”
Yesterday, the Mysterious Girl singer, 52, hit back at what he described as Katie’s “baseless lies” just hours after she publicly called for peace talks, saying their daughter Princess had been “unfairly” pulled into their ongoing dispute.
A spokesman for the model, 47, later responded to his remarks, telling the Daily Mail: “Kate is in a much better and clear headspace and is at peace with the situation.
“This was in the past and she doesn't feel the need to bring up tit for tat comments, but more importantly she's dealing with this the right way and it's now in her lawyers hands.
“Kate will no longer be gaslighted and bullied as she once was...”
Peter posted his statement on Instagram just moments after Katie said she urged her ex-husband to sit down with her and “hash things out” in a bid to end their long-running feud for the sake of Princess, as well as son Junior, 20.
He wrote: “For sixteen years I have stayed silent in the face of repeated lies from my ex-wife and her family, out of respect for my children and loved ones, but staying silence has been incredibly frustrating."
“That ends today. The latest comments about my children's welfare and living arrangements compel me to set the record straight.
“For well-documented reasons, and for their safety, Junior and Princess came into my care in 2018 and remained with me until they reached adulthood.
“In 2011 and 2015, publicly documented court cases found my ex wife had made false claims. She was ordered to pay substantial damages and legal costs, and to apologise, to me and my management.
“The same falsehoods are being repeated today."
He concluded: “Unfortunately, there are many more lies and baseless accusations that I have yet to address. Those will be dealt with in the coming months.”
Peter and Katie, who divorced in 2009 five years after meeting on the third series of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!, are not on speaking terms.
Tensions deepened after Katie was left off the guest list for Princess’s 18th birthday party in June.
This was reportedly because filming for the teen’s ITV2 reality series The Princess Diaries was taking place and Katie had been banned from appearing on it.
Speaking on her Katie Price Show podcast, the mother-of-five insisted she is a “bloody good mum” and wants to attend Princess’s public appearances, even if she is not filmed.
“There’s no reason why both parents can’t support her,” she said. “It’s so not fair to bring Princess piggy in the middle… For the sake of the children, there’s room for everyone.”
Katie stressed she and Princess remain close, speaking daily, but admitted she feels she has “missed out on so much” and believes “it’s about time all of us adults sit down and talk”.
As well as Princess and Junior, Katie has son Harvey, 23, from a previous relationship with former Manchester United star Dwight Yorke, as well as Jett, 12, and Bunny, 11, with influencer Kieran Hayler.
