Katie Price has revealed both of her parents have recently been hospitalised.
Katie, 46, has previously shared that her mother has a terminal lung disease, which eventually led her to receive a lung transplant.
Amy, 71, was (IPF) in 2017, a terminal lung disease with a life expectancy of three to five years.
The former glamour model previously told fans that a burst cyst in her mum’s lungs caused her to go to the hospital in February.
In a recent TikTok Live, Katie revealed that her mum has once again been hospitaised – this time for three weeks, though she seemed confident she was on her way to better health.
She also told her fans her stepdad Paul – who she has previously said she considers to be her dad and with whom she is very close – recently underwent surgery, meaning Katie was in charge of looking after both her parents for a time.
She said: ‘My mum’s doing well – she was in hospital for 21 days,’ she told fans.
‘My dad’s just had a major heart operation… you’ve got to look after them when they get old. So there’s a lot going on behind the scenes.’
Speaking on her podcast, The Katie Price Show, back in February, Katie told her listeners of her Mum’s health scare: ‘Mum ended up at the hospital because she had a burst cyst from an ultrasound.’
Katie’s sister Sophie continued: ‘I had to take mum to A&E. The hospital were really good actually, we went to Medway hospital.
‘Took mum up A&E because she had a burst cyst I think it was but she is all fine.’

‘How many times did you die, Mum?’ Katie asked.
She responded that it was ‘only the once,’ and while she can’t remember it, she was apparently ‘shouting out, “I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe.”’
‘That’s because I was filling up with blood and fluid. I was dreaming, thinking “I’ve got to survive until 5 O’Clock. I’m hot, I’m sweaty, I can’t breathe.”‘
She remembered thinking, in an altered state of consciousness, that two nurses wanted to kill her, but since they would go home at the end of their shifts she just needed to survive until then.
She also recalled thinking that if she did die, things would be okay with her children.
‘I thought: You know, if I go… Sophie’s alright, Kate will sort herself out, Dan’s alright… it’s okay to go.’
‘I felt everything was falling in place, and I could just go.’
The family drama comes in the wake of a tumultuous summer for Katie, who ran when she jetted off to Turkey for a £10,000 facelift and skipped out on a court date relating to her second bankruptcy.She was then arrested on her return into the UK , and later bailed with a .
