The 5 surprising things revealed on Katie Price’s marriage licence, including her REAL original name

KATIE Price flying out to Las Vegas was only ever really going to mean one thing - wedding bells.

And so it proved when The Sun revealed the 43-year-old and fiance Carl Woods had gone to pick up their marriage licence.

While the news they were planning a Sin City wedding made the headlines, there were a lot of other interesting details hidden in the document itself.

The marriage licence, which bears Katie's flamboyant celebrity-style signature alongside Carl's, reveals both of their full names as well as a host of other interesting details.

Here, we take a look at what we learnt from the document that paves the way for Pricey's explosive fourth wedding...

Katie's original name

We all know her as The Pricey or, perhaps if you're slightly older, Jordan.

But - as her Las Vegas marriage licence reveals, the star was born Kate Infield when she entered the world in Brighton back in 1978.

She is the only child of Ray and Amy Infield but took the surname of her stepdad Paul Price when her mum remarried in 1988.

Aged 17 she changed her name to Katie Price and has stayed so for the next 26 years until....

The birth of Katie Woods

As the marriage certificate reveals Katie, true to her word, is going to ditch her surname of Price and become a Woods.

On the line marked "full name after marriage" is says simply Katie Woods.

Katie revealed a year ago that she was going to do it, a move she hasn't made for previous husbands Peter Andre, Alex Reid or Kieran Hayler.

She said: " I’ve never done that before." But Carl added: "I wouldn’t get married if you weren’t going to change your name."

Katie's mum's real name

The certificate also reveals Katie's mum's real name - listing her on the document as Amy Charlier.

She was previously known as Amy Infield and Amy Price, with Charlier the name she was born with.

Sadly, the 66-year-old, who is often seen on screen with Katie, is not expected to be at the wedding in Las Vegas because she's not well enough to fly.

She has the incurable disease idopathic pulmonary fibrosis which reduces the sufferer's ability to breathe.

Their middle names

Interestingly, Katie - who was born Amy Alexandra Alexis - doesn't list a middle name on the marriage licence.

However, we learnt what her fiance's is, showing his full name is Carl James Woods.

James Woods, of course, is an Oscar-nominated Hollywood actor who was big in the late 1980s, when Carl was born.

Maybe his parents, listed on the certificate as Gary and Cheryl, were fans.

Katie and Carl's signatures

True, very few people have a signature that bears much resemblance to their real name - but these really are unintelligible.

Carl's is very short looking like an S followed by a rising jagged line while Katie's is an elaborate affair with looping squiggles all over the place.

The application for a marriage license is signed by the deputy clerk in Clark County, Nevada to show the details were "sworn to before me on this 10th day of November 2021".

Very few celebrities could conjure up surprises even from a dry old document, but when it comes to Katie there are shocks at every turn...
