Katie Price is no stranger to headlines—she’s built a career on them. But her latest gym-driven transformation has sent fans into a frenzy, sparking concerns that the 46-year-old former glamour model is veering into dangerous territory with her dramatically slimmed-down figure. The Katie Price of yore, all curves and charisma, has been swapped for a silhouette that’s raising eyebrows and igniting debates across social media.
The catalyst? A new gym routine that Katie swears by for her mental and physical well-being. She’s flaunted her svelte frame on Instagram and at public events, most recently turning heads (and not necessarily in a good way) at the Geordie Shore launch party. Her tiny waist and legs might have stolen the spotlight, but the fan reaction has been a cacophony of worry rather than applause.
Fans Sound the Alarm
Social media, the 21st-century town square, was quick to pile on. Comments flooded Katie’s Instagram, with users pleading for her to put the brakes on her weight loss.
“I don’t normally comment,” one wrote, “but Katie, please, no more weight loss. Let’s see those womanly curves back, please ❤️.”
Others were less charitable, cutting straight to the bone: “Not a good look. Something is not right with her health, too much weight loss.”
And then came the brutal truth bombs: “Skin and bones. And that’s not a compliment,” and, “You are actively trying to do yourself everlasting damage.”
The loudest critics called her transformation not just unhealthy but irresponsible, accusing her of promoting an outdated, damaging aesthetic reminiscent of the infamous “heroin chic” era. One particularly scathing comment read, “You should be ashamed promoting this weight. It’s unhealthy and sets a bad example for young people.”
Katie’s Take on the Backlash
This isn’t the first time Katie’s body has been public fodder. Back in October, she brushed off similar concerns, telling MailOnline that her slim figure was simply the result of a new exercise routine. Her rep doubled down, insisting, “Katie has always been tiny and she’s enjoying the gym—it’s been good for her well-being.”
But the public isn’t buying it. Photos of her modeling a barely-there cardigan dress for a friend’s clothing brand reignited the conversation, with her noticeably thinner legs fueling fresh rounds of speculation. Is this gym dedication, or is there something more worrying lurking beneath the surface?
Personal Life in the Spotlight
Adding fuel to the fire is the rumor mill surrounding Katie’s relationship status. Her romance with Married at First Sight UK star JJ Slater, 32, has reportedly hit a rough patch. The couple, who went public last February, spent Christmas apart—Katie was spotted with her longtime pal Kerry Katona, while JJ celebrated with his own family.
The pair attempted to quash the whispers by appearing together at the Geordie Shore party, but insiders described the atmosphere between them as “frosty.” According to The Sun, Katie and JJ “arrived separately and didn’t speak for hours.”
“They finally spoke for about five minutes, took some pictures together, and then left,” the insider added. “It’s clear they’re trying to make things work, but the signs don’t look good.”
Katie’s Legacy on the Line
Katie Price is no stranger to reinvention; her entire career has been built on shapeshifting to stay in the public eye. But this latest chapter is testing her fans’ loyalty and her brand’s resilience. Once celebrated for her boldness and unapologetic femininity, Katie now finds herself at the center of a storm she may not have anticipated.
The question isn’t just about her figure—it’s about what it represents. For fans, it’s not just Katie’s weight that’s shrinking but the confidence and vibrancy she once exuded. For Katie herself, this may be just another phase in a life lived unapologetically in the spotlight.
As for her critics? They’re watching closely, waiting to see what comes next. And knowing Katie, it’s bound to be anything but predictable.
