**Katie Price says she was abused**

Katie Price has accused her estranged husband of mental abuse.

The 40-year-old former glamour model split from Kieran Hayler after he repeatedly cheated on her and Katie admitted that his affairs and lies took a huge toll on her emotional wellbeing.

According to the Daily Star Sunday, Katie - who has a new reality TV show 'Katie Price: My Crazy Life' on Quest Red - said: "What he put me through was cruel manipulation. He made me wonder if I was actually going nuts.

"What did he do all day after taking the kids to school? He was out shagging people. There were days I didn't want to get out of bed because Kieran made me feel so mentally abused."

Katie and Kieran - who have children Jett, four, and three-year-old Bunny together - tied the knot in 2012 and during that time he cheated on her with two of her close friends.

They split up for good after he had a fling with a 19-year-old shop assistant earlier this year.

Kieran, 31, admitted to being a sex-addict but Katie recently claimed he never took his sex addiction therapy seriously and only went to a handful of sessions.

She said: "You'll see sex therapists and other chats. I can't believe someone can be so clever. He lies all the time. You can't be diagnosed as having sex addiction just because one therapist filled out some forms and said he had one. He goes on about how he goes to therapy but he went about four times, if that! He said he was going to therapy in Brighton but probably sh***ed the 19 year old on the way back. He even said when I asked him, 'When you went in that room and knew you were going to do it, did you not think, this is wrong?' But he says no. He's got two sides. He's so lovely and convincing, which is dangerous. He got me to a place where he manipulated me into a hole."

**Jessica Simpson is nervous about returning to reality TV**

Singer and designer Jessica Simpson had her own show 'Newlyweds' with former husband Nick Lachey, which ran for three seasons until 2005, but she has decided to make a return to the medium to appear on her sister Ashlee's new E! docuseries 'Ashlee+Evan' with husband Evan Ross.

Jessica told E! News: "I mean, being on reality TV definitely makes me hyperventilate a little bit. I'm not one for being mic'd up all day. I stick my foot in my mouth too much!

"I'm on their show, definitely, a for a big moment. But really, the show is about their discovery in their music and in their relationship. It's very exciting. They're so cute together. I'm exciting for the world to see what I've already seen."

Ashlee and Evan, 29, recently announced that they were allowing the cameras into their home for their new show, which will document them as they work on an album together.

Ashlee said: "We decided to make this album out of love and kind of going back to duets when that was a thing."

The couple have daughter Jagger, two, together, and the 33-year-old singer also has son Bronx, nine, with ex-husband Pete Wentz.

Both children will make brief appearances on the new show.

Although Jessica's first marriage to Nick Lachey broke down soon after filming ended on their reality TV show, Evan isn't worried that the docuseries will affect his relationship with Ashlee.

He said recently: "I think in any relationship in this industry, there's a stress on relationships. I think that's reality, but in no way do I think that if a relationship is meant to be together and a marriage is meant to be together, that anything like a show or being in this industry can change that."

**Brigitte Nielsen welcomes another baby**

Brigitte Nielsen says she is happier than ever after recently welcoming her fifth child.

The 55-year-old actress gave birth to daughter Frida last month and Brigitte says she and her husband, Italian model Mattia Dessi, feel blessed with the new addition.

She told PEOPLE: "It's the best time in my life, with my adorable little Frida, my wonderful husband and four beautiful grown-up sons.

"Life is amazing, you only get one, so take good care of it, and live it to the fullest."

Brigitte - who was married to Sylvester Stallone from 1985-1987 - shocked the world when she announced in May that she was pregnant with her fifth child.

Before falling pregnant with Frida, the star - who has been married five times - already had sons 34-year-old Julian, with first husband Kasper Winding, 28-year-old Killian with Mark Gastineau, and 25-year-old Douglas and 23-year-old Raoul Jr., with fourth husband Raoul Mayer.

The 'Cobra' actress caused a stir on social media with her pregnancy announcement, with many fans calling her an "inspiration" for having another child later in her life.

Responding to one fan, Brigitte wrote: "Nobody has the rights to lead your own decision unless you allow them to do so. You're the only one in charge of yourself and your own happiness. Best of luck!"

Brigitte has been married to Mattia since 2006, but was previously wed to Kasper for a year from 1983 to 1984, before she enjoyed a two-year marriage to Stallone, followed by Sebastian Copeland in 1990 until 1992, and then Raoul from 1993 to 2005.
