Jordan’s baby bombshell:
As new pictures spark speculation she’s expecting her sixth child, Jordan insists she’s not given up on her plans for adoption, so her new babies can grow up together
“I’ve dreamed of having twins – I can’t wait!”
❛ SHE’S MISSING HER CHAOTIC HOUSEHOLD AND HOPES MORE KIDS WILL FILL THAT VOID ❜
She fuelled rumours she was pregnant for the sixth time last week when she was snapped in Thailand with a noticeably larger stomach.
But while a rep for Jordan – real name Katie Price – shot down the claims as the star holidayed with on/off boyfriend Kris Boyson, insiders reveal her pals wouldn’t be surprised if she was expecting.
A source says, “Katie has made no secret that she’s desperate for another baby; she’s on a mission to have one by the end of the year. Friends suspect she may already be pregnant and, if she’s isn’t, it’s only a matter of time. She’s stopped drinking and is off some food, and says she isn’t feeling like her normal self.”
WEIGHT GAIN
Fans added to the rumours when pictures emerged of the mum-of-five looking curvier heading to a spa with Kris while on holiday at the Celes Beachfront Resort Koh Samui. One comment, liked almost 2,500 times, simply read, “Pregnant”. Another user wrote, “Is it me or does she look like she has gained a lot of weight? Please don’t say there will be another baby.”
Last week, reports claimed Kris was planning to propose in Thailand and had taken an engagement ring with him on the trip. And now pals reveal that Jordan’s dropped a bombshell that she wants two babies this year, as she also forges ahead with her plans to adopt.
Last month Jordan, 40, revealed she was looking to adopt a child from Nigeria – something she’s wanted to do for a decade. In 2010 she had revealed how she wanted to adopt a special needs child from Bulgaria. Months later it was reported she was looking into adopting a child from earthquake-hit Haiti with her then-husband Alex Reid.
The source says, “Katie found the process of adopting from Nigeria was far too complex, so she’s been looking into her options in Thailand instead. She’s longing to adopt as well as have her own child with Kris so the two babies can grow up together and it will be like having twins – she’s saying it’ll be a dream come true for her.
“Timing is everything and she’s on a mission to get pregnant and start the adoption process immediately, so she’ll have her new additions to see in 2020. She went to visit an orphanage with Kris and met with a Thai-based adoption agency. She’s fallen in love with a baby girl who she now has her heart set on and hopes to have a baby boy with Kris who can be her ‘twin’ brother. She can’t wait.”
As Closer has previously reported, Jordan wants more children to help ease her chronic loneliness since her split from third husband Kieran Hayler, 31 – with whom she shares Jett, five, and Bunny, four, and who now spend half their time with their dad.
And with Junior, 13, and Princess, 11, living the majority of the time with their father,
Peter Andre, 46, while Harvey, 16, is set to go into residential care later this year, pals say it’s further fuelled her desire to fill her empty nest.
The source says, “Katie’s really missing her previously chaotic household. She thrives on it and sees another two babies as a cure for that.
HEARTBROKEN
“She’s heartbroken that Junior and Princess no longer live with her permanently and thinks having more children around will help fill the void.”
Meanwhile, just days into her holiday, a judge slammed her for a “lack of respect” after she failed to attend a court hearing to answer two counts of threatening behaviour after allegedly asking estranged husband Kieran’s new girlfriend, “Are you enjoying f*****g my husband?” at the gates of her children’s school. The hearing was adjourned to 20 March.
Jordan’s roller- coaster life has gone from one disaster to the next over the past year – with her narrowly avoiding bankruptcy, selfmedicating with drugs and alcohol and ending up in rehab for post-traumatic stress disorder followed by a drink- driving arrest.
Last week, reports surfaced that two of her dogs had escaped from her £2m Sussex mansion for the third time in a month, running onto a nearby dual carriageway. Trolls attacked her online, with one Twitter user commenting, “She shouldn’t be allowed to keep any form of living creature”, while another wrote, “She should be locked away for cruelty to her animals.”
And pals say they’ve desperately tried to warn the cash-strapped star – whose disabled son, Harvey, was reportedly being cared for by Jordan’s hairdresser pal, Louisa Roy, while she was on holiday – that having two more babies is the last thing she needs.
The source adds, “Katie can barely cope with her life as it is right now – let alone adding two more kids into the mix. She and Kris are nowhere near ready to bring children into their on/off relationship, but she insists they are closer than ever.”
