Katie Price is officially returning to ITV despite swirling rumours that she had been banned from appearing on her daughter Princess Andre’s hit reality series The Princess Diaries.
The 47-year-old found herself at the centre of family drama after being left out of filming for the first season, sparking speculation about whether she’d been blocked from the show — and even from ITV entirely.
But insiders have now confirmed that Katie is not banned, and will make her return to the channel in the New Year with a high-profile appearance on an OnlyFans special of Olivia Attwood: Getting Filthy Rich. The episode has already been filmed and will air early 2026.
A TV source shared that Katie “sits down with Olivia to discuss her OnlyFans career”, adding that it was OnlyFans that “saved her financially” following her bankruptcy and mounting tax troubles. Katie reportedly earns around £50,000 a month on the platform and previously charged fans £53 for a fully naked shower video, one of her most expensive clips ever.
Katie’s last ITV appearance was in 2022 on This Morning, where she spoke about her son Harvey. Her pop-culture legacy includes two stints on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! — where she met and fell in love with Peter Andre.
The Princess Diaries drama
Despite her ITV comeback, her involvement in seasons two and three of The Princess Diaries remains uncertain. Insiders insist there was never an ITV ban, saying it was “a family matter” and ultimately Princess’s decision.
Katie previously voiced her heartbreak at being excluded from filming alongside her daughter. She said she had always been present for Princess’s milestones — “assemblies, Christmas shows, award nights, football matches” — and felt hurt that she wasn’t welcome at shoots, signings, and events tied to her daughter’s rising career.
She explained that she never wanted Princess to feel caught between her parents, adding: “I should be there supporting you… I’m your mum, and I’m proud of you.”
Peter Andre steps back
It’s also been revealed that Peter Andre and his wife Emily will not appear in the next seasons of The Princess Diaries. They reportedly made the decision after discussions with Princess, choosing to step aside to reduce “noise” surrounding the family tensions.
Princess’s brother Junior will continue to feature, with cameras following the teen through her new business ventures and a major beauty project in Liverpool.
Olivia Attwood’s hit show rolls on
The new series of Getting Filthy Rich marks a major exposure moment for Katie, with Olivia Attwood’s shows having racked up more than 240 million streams on ITVX. The franchise explores how people make money through online sex work, from OnlyFans to cam work and dominatrix services.
Katie — who was forced to sell her £2 million “Mucky Mansion” after a £750,000 tax bill — has now been discharged from her debts and is reportedly on more stable financial ground.
Whether she’ll appear alongside Princess in upcoming seasons, however, remains a question only the family will decide.
