Kieran Hayler’s romance with new girlfriend ‘on the rocks’ after she saw him cuddling up to ex Katie Price

KIERAN Hayler's relationship with new girlfriend Michelle Penticost is "on the rocks" after she saw photos of him cuddling up to ex-wife Katie Price.

The pair's relationship is said to have taken a turn for the worse in recent weeks - with Michelle demanding to know what is going on between Kieran and the former glamour model.

An insider has revealed to The Sun Online that the pair had been looking at houses in Yorkshire together – far from Katie’s £2million Sussex mansion.

The source added: “Kieran and Michelle had been looking at houses close to Shipley.

"Over the past few weeks their relationship has got a bit more tense and they’re not getting on as well as they used to.

"These pictures of Katie with Kieran have made it worse and Michelle wants to know what the hell is going on."

Katie and Kieran married in 2013 and have two children together, five-year-old Jett and four-year-old Bunny.

After a tumultuous relationship, which saw Kieran cheat on the reality star with her best friend, the pair split for good in May of this year.

Kieran went official with Michelle in July, with Michelle's child attending the same primary school as Kieran and Katie's son Jett.

Katie and Michelle have been at loggerheads for months, with Katie spotted "shouting and swearing" at her ex's new girlfriend in September - after she kissed daughter Bunny on the lips.

Katie confronted Michelle over photos of her with Bunny from a charity hot air balloon event, with a source telling us at the time: "Katie stormed over to Michelle and could be heard saying: 'If you’re going to kiss my daughter in public you can have the decency to say hello to me'.

"Katie didn’t appreciate being told to what to do and really started laying into Michelle, using very colourful language.

"Michelle looked really shaken by the whole thing and didn’t actually say a word during the altercation."

Katie was also banned from the school gates after she shouted abuse "of a sexual nature" at Michelle when they were both there to pick up their children.

The star's relationship with Kieran was also fractured until recently - with it believed that Kieran took over full-time care of their children while Katie battled a turbulent few months - including a stint in rehab and bankruptcy.

However, the former couple hit the headlines yesterday when they were pictured looking cosy in a car park.

The pair hugged and joked together - with Michelle nowhere to be seen.

Just hours later, Katie touched down in Glasgow airport with her on/ off boyfriend Kris Boyson, seemingly confirming that they are back together.
