Katie Price’s ex Kieran Hayler reveals he’s expecting first baby with Michelle Penticost

KIERAN Hayler and his fiancée Michelle Penticost have revealed they are expecting their first child together.

The 33-year-old ex-husband of Katie Price, who shares two children with the former glamour model, explained they had been "trying" to fall pregnant in lockdown.

Former stripper Kieran admits he only speaks to ex Katie, 42, who he was formally divorced from this month, "about the kids".

Jett, 7, and Bunny, 6, are already step-siblings to Michelle's son, Valentino, 10 - and the blended family say they are excited to "cement" their families together forever.

Michelle, 39, told : "We're really excited to announce our news to the world. We found out in the last week of November."

Kieran added: "It’s nice to bring families together, like Michelle and Valentino with me, Jett and Bunny. It will bring us together as a whole family and cements us forever."

Michelle discovered she was pregnant in the second national lockdown, is said to have been suffering badly with morning sickness.

But Kieran praised his fiancée for her strength, gushing: "She’s done very well. I’m really proud of her."

The couple, who were engaged in the Maldives a year ago, are expecting to welcome their little one, whose gender is currently unknown, in August.

Until now, their news has been kept from everyone - including immediate family and Kieran's ex Katie, as they "live different lives".

"We're living different lives now," he added. "I don’t know what’s going on in her life, she doesn’t know what’s going on in my life. All we need to speak about is the kids."

"We just get on because of the kids. Other than that there’s no reason for us to be in each other’s lives. We’re moving on. She’s happy and I’m happy.

He concluded "all he could wish for" was happiness for his ex - and said the TV personality would be welcome at his wedding, which is expected to be "next summer".

Katie and Kieran finally signed the divorce papers on their marriage earlier this month, with Katie celebrating her "freedom".

She called an end to her five-year marriage to the former stripper in March 2018 following a  tumultuous relationship dogged with cheating scandals.

Their "fairy tale" love story didn't last long, when Katie was left heartbroken as she discovered Kieran had been having sex with their children's nanny all over the house.

It was the final straw following his bombshell seven-month affair with Katie's best pal of 20 years, Jane Pountney, in 2014.

Katie exclusively told The Sun: "Finally, we've signed the divorce papers. I'm so happy that I'm free from that marriage.

"The only good thing that came out of it was my children. I can now continue my life with all the badness behind me. All I can do is wish him luck."

Katie and Kieran sent shockwaves in 2013 when they got married just two months after they met.

The couple went on to have two children together, seven-year-old Jett and six-year-old Bunny - adding to Katie's growing brood.

Katie already has Harvey, 18, whose father Dwight Yorke has no involvement in his life, and shares Junior, 15, and Princess, 13, with Peter Andre.
