For her stint in the jungle in 2004, Jordan opted for practical corn rows and clear skin, but those shower scenes relaunched her career and set her firmly on a reality TV trajectory

Fresh out of the jungle and with a new man in the form of 90's pop sensation Peter Andre on her arm, Katie was all about the matchingoutfits. She ditched the braids and slap-free face for a more high maintenance look.

A new mum to second son Junior, Katie was quickly back in her knickers on the red carpet, sporting a noticeably slimmer nose and smoother skin.

As she prepared to welcome baby number three (her first daughter, Princess Tiaami), Jordan was looking more than a little like her impending arrival. Weird or what?

Now mainly known as Katie Price, she admitted after confirming her nose job, "I've always had a thing about my nose."I haven't had a full 100% nose job. They shaved the bone – they didn't break my nose. In fact, I liked my nose before and now. If I had a cupboard with both noses, I'd alternate between them!"

At 30, Katie was still young but already a fan of fillers."I get my forehead and around my eyes Botoxed every six months and I love it. You can't beat it," she said.

She's not been shy about the work she's had done on her teeth, either. "I didn't do it for cosmetics, I fell off a skateboard and cracked my teeth when I was younger," she admitted."They were so expensive. When I was in the US, I watched Extreme Makeover and went to see the dentist on there – $150,000 my bloody teeth cost me."

She was also one of the pioneers of lip fillers, sporting the plumped up pout that's so very mainstream these days.

By 2014, the boobs were most definitely BACK, as was a painfully taught-looking face.

As her facial muscles relaxed back to normal, her hair followed suit and Katie looked happier and more natural than she had in a while when she got together with Kieran Hayler.

Katie went into the CBB house in 2015 and admitted having her boobs reduced – but that things hadn't gone exactly to plan."They were going to take them out on Monday," she told her shocked housemates. "My implant was hanging out in New Year's Day. But it hasn't stopped me coming in, because I'm not running around."

We've lost track of where Katie's boobs were in 2016, but this is the year she seemed to become seriously addicted to fillers.

A botched botox job left Katie feeling 'ugly' in 2017."I absolutely hated it... the only thing I could do to sort it out was to remove the threads and then have a face lift. I never ever wanted a face lift at my age - I would have had one in years to come, but I didn't want one this young,"

She eventually returned the Brussels-based surgeon who fixed her botched boobs back in 2015.

By 2018 her face was back to normal, but not before shocking pictures emerged of her post surgery in Belgium, her face wrapped in bandaged and surgical fluid tubes hanging off her head.

But when Adrian – who made her infamous fairytale gown for her nuptials to Pete – argued that she and Pete were ‘the best combo’, even Katie couldn’t deny they were a great fit, at the time.

“Well, we know why that ended,” she said. “Mine and Pete’s relationship was very magazine and TV based, we were never really left alone to enjoy our relationship. Everything was documented.

“But the best thing to come out of it was Junior and Princess,” she continued. “I would say that in a nutshell, Pete was the perfect one – then. I actually thought we would have been together for ever. But it is what it is. It’s been ten years and people still go on about it – but onwards and upwards.”

Katie is the first to admit “it’s been a sh*t year”, and insists that her head is now back in her career and is looking forward to the new year for a fresh start.

Pete and Katie first met on I’m a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! in 2006 and went on to marry a year later, starring in seven reality series together, before divorcing in 2009.

Earlier this year, speculation swirled as Katie was papped visiting Adrien’s studio amid rumours she was hoping to marry current beau Kris Boyson. But Katie was quick to dismiss the reports, taking to her Twitter to say, 'Completely wrong untrue story again actually Adrian making me a Christmas outfit.'
