Katie Price 'strangled and spat on' by ex but details reason she couldn't leave
Former glamour model Katie Price has opened up on the horrific mental and physical abuse she suffered in past relationships as she reveals why she didn't leave them
Katie Price has heartbreakingly opened up on abuse she suffered in past relationships. The former glamour model, 46, is known for having a very rocky love life, yet behind closed doors it seems she was subject to horrific mental and physical abuse.
She is now happily loved up with Married At First Sight UK star JJ Slater, but it wasn't always that way. Katie, who has only been single for three years in her adult life, has had eight engagements and three marriages – all of which have ended in divorce.
In a very candid confession, Katie looked back at her romantic relationships and how she was treated. "There was domestic abuse, gaslighting, narcissists and that's all I was used to," she shared.
Opening up on the impact it had on her life, she said: "When you are in them kind of relationships and they isolate you, even from your family. If you want to see your family, they have to be there, won't let you see your friends, put you down or 'how long are you going to be' and 'where are you'.
"'Why are you doing that job, you're a s**g if you want to do that'. I have only ever been used to that. If I was working, they would have to come to work with me and you never get a break. It ends up being 24/7 on my case. It is exhausting."

She devastatingly replied: "Being strangled, spat on, my computer being completely smashed, holes being punched in the wall, the name calling, things like that."
Katie was asked if she ever feared for her life, as she explained: "Yes, but I couldn't leave because [the partners say] ‘I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I'll never do it again. I love you, and it's always 'you will never find anyone as good as me.
"You will never find anyone who loves you like me. No one would accept you, and who would want you an old has-been like you with five kids? You are lucky I want you.'
"It is very easy to say to someone who is a victim of mental or physical abuse because you won't see it. It is behind closed doors. It is the worst situation to be in."
Katie added: "It is so easy done and it happens very quick. You fall for it but really you fall into the red flags of them isolating you. It all starts, the comments."
Paul explained his two signs of a good relationship; feeling better with your partner and feeling free. Despite her romance with JJ, Katie admitted: "I’ve never had that in any relationship. Never had any of them.
"And JJ, he's the most kindest, genuine, easygoing, chilled person. But do I feel my most happiest and do I feel free? No. It’s not a reflection on him, maybe that's what I need to change for myself."
Just last week, JJ and Katie were hit by split rumours. Some fans noticed Katie hadn't featured JJ on her Instagram in a while and JJ has also not posted Katie on his own account in 23 weeks. They also spent Christmas apart.
Amid the speculation, Katie's representative settled the rumours once and for all. They told the Mirror that the rumours are "not true" and that "nothing has been removed, they're continuing as normal."
