MUM-OF-FIVE Katie Price spoke about her fears of getting dumped for being ''too old'' to have more kids.
The former glamour model, 46, candidly shared the rollercoaster of emotions as she was trying for another child in her new Channel 4 documentary .
The Celebrity Big Brother winner is mum to five kids - 22-year-old 22-year-old Harvey Price, Princess, 17, and Junior, 18, the latter of two whom Katie shares with her ex-husband Peter Andre.
The TV personality also has two younger children, Bunny, 10, and Jett, 11, with her third husband, Kieran Hayler.
''As they get [children] get older, some mums and dads are like 'Now they've gone off, now I've got my life back'.
''No, my life isn't my life without kids around me - hence why I want more and more.
''To have another baby - I'd love that.''
However, as desperate as Katie and ex-fiancé Carl Woods may have been to grow their brood, the chances of the former glamour model conceiving naturally and via IVF were low.
During a chat with fertility expert Carole Gilling-Smith, Katie was told the devastating news that she only had ''a couple of awake eggs'' and the scan was starting to show the first signs of menopause.
According to the doctor, Katie's chances to have another baby using her own eggs were ''less than one percent''.
Potentially unable to get pregnant after three long years of trying, the OnlyFans content creator bravely admitted she feared the car salesman, 35, would leave her.
''He probably won't want to be with me now anyway.''
Speaking to the camera, heartbroken Katie said: ''But I now am paranoid that he won't want to be with me because he'll want a kid, and he'd think I'm so much grief that he'd go and get someone younger and set up a family. That's what I think.''
The former couple filmed their treatment as they tried for a first baby together in the summer of 2023 - before splitting just months later.
The IVF treatment followed a turbulent period in which Carl discovered Katie had cheated on him with former international polo star Jamie Morrison and traded sexy messages with an England footballer.

2020-2023: Car salesman Carl Woods took a shining to Katie in 2020. Their relationship was up and down for three years. They broke up for a final time last year.
2024-present: After weeks of rumours, Katie confirmed her relationship with Married At First Sight star JJ Slater in February this year.
Their up-and-down relationship came to an end as Carl said in the episode: “Sometimes loving somebody is just not enough.”
Katie said: “We've gone through all this IVF, we've had a failed IVF, and then he can just drop me like that. [clicks] Just drop me like that.
“Don't care about my feelings. Don't care about the fact that in my head I thought we were having a donor egg going in me.
''For him to now decide, 'Nah, I'm just gonna block her'.”
Carl then told the camera: “It's the hardest decision of my life to make, like to tap out on it. She will just think that I'm out of order. ‘He's left me when we were having a child’.
“It's not about that at all. What it is about, it is about having a stability in my life. Kids need a stable home, and there's no sign of it changing. I don't have the fight left in me. I've fought for three years.”
Katie goes on to say: “It's so crap that I still have to take these IVF tablets, because they said I couldn't stop it last week, because if I do, it will mess my periods up, and I might not come on for months. But yeah, I'm not with Carl.”
