As I said to Katie Price on This Morning today, no one likes it when mates break up and you have to invite them over separately when once they would have been a couple. It’s equally difficult when those mates are not communicating. What makes this break up even more upsetting is, that they are communicating, but in the papers! Not really a reliable way to pick through the wreckage of a marriage. It’s hard to know who is in the right and if what we are hearing is anywhere near the truth.
I don’t intend to take sides, I like them both but this public scrap is anything but helpful. Katie also said on This Morning that she was running a business, well if that’s how we are to view it, then I’m beginning to feel more than a whiff of public boredom. With a couple who thrive off public interest, apathy must be the greatest danger. We want them both to be happy, but we admire dignity and restraint which could be lacking in some quarters. I have said on my Twitter page that I think Katie is winding Pete up just to get a reaction. I stand by that. This should not be about point scoring, it should be about sensible adults behaving in a dignified way, if only for the sake of the children. Then maybe it won’t be so uncomfortable when we invite our friends round in the future.
