Katie Price 'in love with another man'

Katie Price admitted that she is "in love" with another man two months before she split from Peter Andre, it has been claimed.

The former glamour model reportedly opened up about her marriage problems in a conversation with Apprentice star Mona Lewis at a Brighton club eight weeks ago.

Speaking to the Sunday Mirror, Lewis revealed: "Katie said she wanted this new man, but also her family life with Peter Andre. She said her children meant the world to her, but she didn't love Peter and was totally dismissive of him."

The financial manager continued: "She started telling me about her marriage and my jaw just dropped. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I went up to ask her for a photo and next thing she was telling me her marital problems. We're both mums so we started talking about our kids. Then Katie said to me: 'I may as well tell you that me and Pete are splitting up'."

Sources close to the 'horse-fanatic' reality star have claimed that she was referring to her unrequited feelings for married stableowner Andrew Gould, who works as her dressage coach.

Lewis added: "She told me: 'I want out because I am in love with someone else but I'm trying to keep it together for the children'. Then she took her wedding ring off and put it in my hand. She said: 'Have it. It means f*** all to me'.

"It weighed a ton but she couldn't have cared less about it. I could have run off with it there and then. I tried to give it back but she wouldn't take it. I had to grab her hand and practically force it back on her wedding finger."

Price and Andre confirmed that they were splitting after three-and-a-half years of marriage earlier this week.
