Bankrupt Katie Price forced to spend Christmas away from Princess and Junior as they celebrate with dad Peter Andre
BANKRUPT Katie Price has been forced to spend Christmas Day away from her kids Princess and Junior as they celebrated with dad Peter Andre.
Katie revealed she would be spending the 25th in Liverpool as she performs in Panto.
The TV star has been playing Sleeping Beauty's evil fairy Carabosse, who is also known as Maleficient in the Disney movies.
Meanwhile, ex-husband Peter posted a video of him singing with their eldest kids earlier today.
Pop star Junior, 18, and the Mysterious Girl hitmaker, 50, belted out Mariah Carey's All I Want For Christmas as Princess, 16, joined in.
He captioned the post: "Merry Christmas morning everyone."

Katie, who was spotted after one performance last week with her on/off fiance Carl and her youngest kids Jett and Bunny, is staying in a Liverpool flat during her run of nights doing Panto.
She said: "Do you know what I'm doing Christmas Day? I am exhausted and I finish panto at six o'clock Christmas Eve.
"There's no way I'm coming with the kids, all their presents, for a five-hour drive back home, to have Christmas Day to get up here for two o'clock for Boxing Day.
"I'm not having that stress. So Christmas Day I'm not cooking, I'm going to get a takeaway curry."
Katie explained her stage debut wasn't smooth sailing after one fan called the performance a "disgrace" - because she's more used to performing in front of the cameras than for hundreds of people live.
And she was afraid of letting people down.
Katie admitted: "Before I get on stage my mind's going blank - it's because I've been so tired.
"I need reassuring - this is new to me. I'm alright going on telly, podcasting, talking about myself, but when you've got to learn a script and you've got people who have paid for tickets you've got to be good."
She also said the stress meant her bid to give up vaping lasted only one day.
"I gave up vaping for one day and I'm back on it," she said.
"I've got all the kids here in a two-bedroom apartment.
Katie will get Christmas Day off but will be back on stage from Boxing Day to December 30.
She added on her podcast: "I can't wait for New Year's Eve and I'm doing nothing.
"I probably won't even be awake at midnight, I'll be asleep. I've got Harvey coming up in a few days, so I've got to deal with Harvey here.
"It's the stress, I've got him, the other two kids that don't stop arguing, and then Princess is coming up, and then they all argue.
"I'm going to do nothing on Christmas Day, I'm not even going to clear the mess up. I'm going to have me time. I'm not going to cook. I'm just going to have a curry."
The former glamour model was declared bankrupt in November 2019.
A company she owned was shut down - with just £1 in the bank- in September.
The company dissolution news came after Katie's bankruptcy hearing was pushed back yet again - with the star's court date now delayed until 2024.
Yet Katie has remained ever the optimist about her situation.
Last month, the star insisted that she "isn't broke" during a Q&A on a TikTok live with her followers.

She said: "I live in my own £2.2million house, I own it, nobody can ever take it away from me.
"I wouldn't call that broke, would you?"
