JJ Slater, 31, finally breaks silence over romance with Katie Price, 45, with stunning revelation
JJ Slater has broken his silence on his five-month romance with Katie Price, teasing that marriage could be on the cards for the loved-up pair. The Married At First Sight UK star, 31, revealed that the glamour model and mother-of-five, 45, reached out to him after he shared he’d been diagnosed with diabetes.
He told the Mail how the attraction was instant after the pair met up for coffee, with JJ having always had a thing for the star. He said to the publication: “'We met for coffee and met as friends, and we got on really well as friends and it developed from there, which was really nice. There was no pressure, we both just really fancied and liked each other.
“Kate actually reached out when she heard about my diabetes diagnosis saying she was really sorry to hear this and again, this is how something good has come from it... is Kate. She was being kind, which I appreciated and then it went from there…”
JJ, who admitted he had previously tried to catch Katie’s attention by sliding into her DMs before finding fame on the E4 series reality show last year, said he’s 'always thought she was fit.'
Katie has already been married three times, to singer Peter Andre, 51, with whom she shares children Junior, 18, and Princess, 16, Alex Reid, 48, and personal trainer Kieran Hayler, 37, who she welcomed Jett, 10, and Bunny, nine with.
She is also mum to son Harvey, 21, from her previous relationship with footballer Dwight Yorke, 52. And now, a fourth marriage could be on the cards as JJ revealed he wished he could have married Katie on the reality show instead.
The clothing brand owner added: “It would have been ideal on Married At First Sight if I was at the altar and I turned around and it was Kate walking down. It would have saved a lot of time.”
JJ, who married Bianca Petronzi on the show before sparking up a new romance with transgender bride Ella Morgan, revealed that he and Katie have already confessed their love for each other.
He added that he doesn’t want to ‘waste’ any time and he sees a ‘future with her.’
He insisted that the 14-year age gap between the pair doesn’t ever affect their relationship and that ‘it doesn't matter at all’ because ‘age is just a number’ and they are both ‘on the same page and wavelength.’
