Katie Price (Jordan) Biography

Katie Price was born on May 22nd, 1978, and grew up in the seaside town of Brighton in Sussex, England. The decision to embark on a modeling career came after a friend suggested a session with a professional photographer. The pictures were sent to an agency in London and to her astonishment, she was invited to participate in a photo shoot.

Katie soon signed a contract and became a Page 3 sensation (a popular feature in the British tabloid the Sun), changing her name to Jordan shortly thereafter. As her popularity grew, her relationship with an electrician began to decline and the couple parted in 1997. Other dalliances included football (soccer) star Teddy Sheringham and showjumper Oliver Skeete.

In 1998, she began dating Gladiator "Ace" Warren Furman of British television fame. The relationship soured, however, when Furman became envious of the attention Jordan received while entertaining British troops in Kosovo. One of her more publicized relationships was with Dane Bowers, former lead singer of Another Level, whom she shacked up with.
Jordan auditioned for a part in Baywatch in 1998, but was unsuccessful in landing a part. Although she had become an established model, Jordan was insecure about her chest size. Believing that implants would help her cause, she decided to have plastic surgery. The result was an increase in size from B to D. The dramatic journey leading up to the procedure was chronicled in every tabloid newspaper in the UK.
Following the successful operation, Jordan decided never to pose for Page 3, although the Sun in particular had long since instituted a policy of using only natural girls.

Famous for being famous, Katie Price was the subject of a trilogy of documentaries (directed by BBC filmmaker Richard Macer), starting with Jordan: The Truth About Me (2002), followed by Jordan: The Model Mum (2004) and concluding with Jordan: You Don't Even Know Me (2004). The films follow Jordan from her modeling days, to her pregnancy, to the birth of her child and separation from her boyfriend, all while seeing her life played out in the British tabloids. Unfortunately, Katie learned that her son, Harvey, was born blind, as his optic nerve didn't develop properly.
Throughout her career, Katie Price has appeared as herself in British TV shows such as The Frank Skinner Show, Dream Team and The Dunphy Show. But she generated the most buzz with her stint on the celebrity reality show, I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here!, in 2004, when she began a highly-publicized relationship with her "co-star," Aussie singer Peter Andre.
