KATIE Price has revealed she won't be celebrating boyfriend JJ Slater's birthday with him - adding to speculation the pair have split.
The former glamour model is missing out on the Married At First Sight star's special day today - which will see him turn 32 - due to work commitments.
Katie, 46, spoke candidly on a mini episode of her The Katie Price Show podcast amid speculation the pair were on the rocks, following a cryptic post about "empowerment."
She told how June 13 was a special day in her household and said: "It's Junior and JJ's birthday - their birthday is on the same day - the JJs, how weird is that?"
Junior, who Katie shares with ex husband Peter Andre, 51, has today turned 19 - with the Pricey celebrating the final 12 months of his teenage years in a sweet Instagram post.
Continuing the podcast, her sister Sophie, 34, asked: "Oh yeah, what are you doing for that? [JJ's birthday]" as Katie replied: "Doing my audiobook all day."

Yet Katie did clarify she would soon be spending quality time with her man.
She said: "We have got dinner with his mum who has flown over from America on Saturday, and then his dad and sister and their other halves on Friday."
Sophie was quick to gush: "Oooh she's meeting the family," as Katie replied: "Well, he's met my family.
"It's quite an eventful week for me really."
In the same podcast, Katie opened up on the trials and tribulations of recording her latest tome.
Katie said: "I've been dong the audio book I've started.
"It's hard work in the fact I look at all the words, its my brain, I can read obviously but having to read it and do it ... I stop and get frustrated, and have to keep saying the lines again.
"And it's re-living stuff that I don't want to have to keep repeating.
"I just want to get it off my chest."
Katie Price's missing millions
At the peak of her career Katie had an estimated fortune of £45m, thanks to her lucrative modelling career, book deals, and TV appearances.
The cash-strapped mum-of-five was first declared bankrupt in 2019 over unpaid debts of £3.2 million.
In a podcast interview earlier this year she blamed her exes who include Peter Andre, Alex Reid and Kieran Hayler and lawyers for her money woes.
She insisted that funding her exes' lavish lifestyles with cars, watches, luxury holidays and homes left her finances in tatters.
She added: "I went through a breakdown, this is how mine started - lawyers and exes, that is my bankruptcy thing.
"And obviously a bit of HMRC.
"When I had my breakdown, if anyone has been depressed …. I don't know if you've ever had depression...
"It starts with depression and you just want to sleep all day and not talk to anyone, the phone would ring and you wouldn't answer it.'
Katie was declared bankrupt for a second time in March over an unpaid tax bill of £761,994.05.
The demand for payment was made by HMRC last October.
Katie was due to give evidence about her finances at the High Court but failed to turn up - holidaying in Cyprus with her new man JJ Slater instead.
Her Mucky Mansion was a bomb site for years after it was burgled, flooded and swamped by an overflowing septic tank.
She finally moved out at the end of May and is currently renting a four-bed mansion in Sussex.
She added: "I've never done an audiobook it will be good for people to hear my voice and my story."
Katie is grafting hard after being declared bankrupt for a second time and evicted from her Mucky Mansion home.
CRYPTIC CLUE?
Yet the podcast will no doubt reassure fans about her love life, with many speculating her and JJ had split following a cryptic "MILF" post.
The mum of five uploaded a message about men being unable to handle her "empowerment."
She re-shared a video from singer Paloma Faith showcasing her "Palomaffirmations", in which the Only Love Can Hurt Like This popstar referred to herself as "a MILF" before listing off a series of statements.
One of them saw Paloma say: "No man can handle my empowerment."
Katie agreed with the sentiments - sparking suggestions there was trouble in paradise.
Katie and JJ started dating at the start of the year following her split from partner, Carl Woods.
Since then, the duo have barely been able to leave each other's sides and have continually put on very public displays of affection.
The I'm A Celeb star also told fans she'd "have a baby" with the Essex businessman as she discussed their family plans earlier this year.
CASH CRISIS
Away from her personal relationships, it has been a tough year for the TV favourite.
Katie was declared bankrupt for a second time back in March due to an unpaid tax bill worth more than £750,000.
She has since been warned she could face jail for swerving the authorities at the High Court.

She owes £142,405 and £196,735 for the tax years 2020-2021 and 2021-2022, plus £140,000 in VAT.
Katie was then kicked out of her dilapidated nine-bed family home, dubbed Mucky Mansion, in May after an eviction notice was served at the 8,000 square foot Horsham pile.
