Katie Price slams footballer Fernando Ricksen’s sex brag – and says she didn’t sue because of his terminal illness
The footballer claimed he had sex with Katie back in 2003
KATIE Price has denied having sex with footballer Fernando Ricksen - and says she would have sued him over his claims if it hadn’t been for his terminal illness.
The Rangers star – who is suffering from Motor Neurone Disease - claimed to have slept with the glamour model, who was then known as Jordan, back in 2003.
But mum-of-five Katie has vehemently denied it ever happened, branding his claim ‘bull***’ – revealing she was planning on getting her lawyers involved but decided against it when she discovered he was terminally ill.
Ricksen, now 40, was diagnosed with MND in 2013 – the year before he published his autobiography with the claims about Katie.
Writing in Fighting Spirit, he said: “The sex was amazing – it was a once-in-a-lifetime I will never, ever forget.

“I was having problems with my ex-wife Graciela and we’d split up. I was on the prowl again. That night I was damn proud of myself – banging Jordan was one hell of an achievement.”
When quizzed about why the reported incident was not included in her latest explosive book Katie said: “I have never done that. I remember and I was going to sue him but because he’s ill, what’s the point?”
She added: “It was absolutely bulls***. I was going to go legal on it because it is absolute rubbish.”
“The ones in the book have upset me, which is why they are in the book. But they have never come back to complain because it is the truth. No one is going to argue the facts.”
At the time the story broke Ricksen was fined £25,000 by Rangers.
The sport star added in his book: “I was all over the front pages and, looking back, sh*****g Jordan was only going to have one result but I took the club fine – happily.”
