Price: 'I don't write my own books'

Katie Price has likened her role in writing her books to a producer making a record.

The model admitted that the autobiographies, novels and children's stories published under her name are actually penned by a ghostwriter.

Speaking at the launch of her new children's series Mermaids And Pirates, she said: "I don't actually write them, I say how I want the story.

"Like I've said before in any of my books, even my autobiographies, it's all about me, but it's the bits they add in like 'It's a sunny day and the daffodils were blooming' - things like that obviously haven't come from me.

"Like Pete would say, it's no different to a producer doing a record."

Price recently sparked outrage after being nominated for a best children's author award.
