MUM-OF-FIVE Katie Price spoke about her fears of getting dumped for being ''too old'' to have more kids. The former glamour model, 46, candidly shared the rollercoaster of emotions as she was trying for another child in her new Channel 4 documentary Katie Price: Making Babies.
The Celebrity Big Brother winner is mum to five kids - 22-year-old 22-year-old Harvey Price, Princess, 17, and Junior, 18, the latter of two whom Katie shares with her ex-husband Peter Andre. The TV personality also has two younger children, Bunny, 10, and Jett, 11, with her third husband, Kieran Hayler.
''As they get [children] get older, some mums and dads are like 'Now they've gone off, now I've got my life back'. ''No, my life isn't my life without kids around me - hence why I want more and more. ''To have another baby - I'd love that.''. However, as desperate as Katie and ex-fiancé Carl Woods may have been to grow their brood, the chances of the former glamour model conceiving naturally and via IVF were low.
During a chat with fertility expert Carole Gilling-Smith, Katie was told the devastating news that she only had ''a couple of awake eggs'' and the scan was starting to show the first signs of menopause. According to the doctor, Katie's chances to have another baby using her own eggs were ''less than one percent''.
