2018 hasn't been the best year for former glamour model Katie Price. After taking back her cheating husband Kieran Hayler, she caught him being unfaithful AGAIN, she found out her mum Amy has a terminal illness, narrowly avoided being declared bankrupt and then split from her new boyfriend Kris Boyson.

Now, after things all got TOO MUCH for the Pricey, the mum-of-five checked herself into rehab after 'PTSD caused drug binges'.

It was being reported that Katie had signed up to appear on the 2019 series of Dancing On Ice, in an attempt to resurrect her career and get her life back on track.

HOWEVER, in new reports out today, it looks like the 40-year-old has been DROPPED from the series, with bosses thinking it would be 'too soon' for the model to appear on the show following her stint in rehab.

A source told The Sun Online, "Katie told pals she was going on the show this year but unfortunately that's not the case. They know she's a huge fan of the show and that she would have made great viewing but there was a long list of stars who really impressed at the trials.

"Katie's partying hasn't gone unnoticed by bosses. They're supportive of her rehab decision but feel Dancing On Ice might be a bit too soon for her."

Katie checked herself into rehab last week after being diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. The former Loose Women star will spend 28 days in The Priory, with her mum Amy Price saying, "Kate has been her own worst enemy and behaved like an idiot at times but she has been tearing herself apart for years."

Katie broke down in tears on Loose Women earlier this year after revealing her beloved mum had been diagnosed with a terminal lung condition called idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Meanwhile, whilst she recovers in rehab, Katie's children, 13-year-old Junior and 11-year-old Princess, are now living with their dad, Katie's ex-husband Peter Andre.

Peter, who shares two other children with his wife Emily, often shares adorable photos of his children to his Instagram page. Including the below one of Junior and Princess on their first day of school earlier this month.
