Katie previously gushed: “I am so excited to be performing in Liverpool. I love the city and can’t wait to bring my kids along with me and make some amazing memories.”
But despite her best efforts, some audience members had nasty things to say about the mum-of-five.
A video of her dancing out of time for the opening night prompted critical comments from fans online.
"Maybe, just maybe Katie Price could learn the routines.
"She was an absolute disgrace. Clear to see how hard the other cast members have worked .. very clear she thinks she can rock up making zero effort!!!"
Another moaned: "lol you hardly had any words, did no rehearsing and bippo acted you off the stage. Good work you can’t sing or act - your family must be so embarrassed."
However, others have jumped to Katie's defence - and one fan has even branded her an "icon".
Another gushed: "Oh wow! You were fab, we loved it. Totally confident and funny as! We even gave u a shout out at the end of the first opening night telling u we loved you!"
Despite the mixed reviews, Katie has shown true Christmas spirit by accompanying her panto co-stars on a trip to Alder Hey Children's Hospital.
The star wore her full Carabosse costume as she joined poorly kids for a sing song of festive carols.
Commenting on a video of the visit, one person wrote on Facebook: "How lovely x."
