Katie Price’s furious ex Kieran Hayler hits back in bitter row over the children
KATIE Price’s ex husband Kieran Hayler has hit back after the former glamour model claimed she had “limited access” to their kids.
The former couple share children Bunny, eight, and Jett, nine, who both live with dad Kieran.
In Katie’s new Channel 4 series, she tells how their parenting relationship has “broken down” and how the lack of contact with her two youngest is “certainly not good” for their mental health.
After reigniting her feud with her ex, Kieran has now exclusively responded to The Sun Online.
A rep for Kieran told us: “Kieran’s focus remains on the children’s best interest and in maintaining the children’s best interests and safety at all times – Miss Price’s version of events are never accurately portrayed.
“It is a shame the producers of the program did not feel it appropriate to balance the claims by interviewing the father’s who have first hand kept the children in a loving, caring and stable environment.”

Katie dodged jail earlier this year after admitting to breaching a restraining order after sending an abusive text to Kieran criticising his fiancé Michelle Penticost.
Kieran and Katie have taken swipes at each other on social media since, and in her new documentary Trauma and Me, Katie hits out at the way they co-parent.
She says: “The hardest thing I’ve had to deal with in the recent months is having limited access to some of my kids.
“Recent events have meant I’m seeing my youngest children less and the relationship between me and their father has broken down.

“It’s not good for my mental health and it’s certainly not good for their mental health. They should be having their mum in their life. At the moment I’m stuck in this rut with Jett and Bunny and it is frustrating for me.
“You know, seven months, how has it even got to this? It’s heartbreaking and I just wish it wasn’t like this. All I can do is hope that this won’t be forever.”
A representative for Kieran told the Sun: “This is categorically untrue.”
Katie recently landed herself in hot water with Kieran after posting a video of their daughter Bunny eating a lollipop on social media.
Despite the harmless nature of the clip, the mum-of-five was flooded with comments about child safety online.
And insiders said Bunny’s dad was furious about it.
Katie and Kieran met over online chat service Blackberry Messenger in November 2012 and just two months later they tied the knot in the Bahamas on January 16, 2013, after Kieran proposed on Christmas Day 2012.
In March 2013 they had their wedding blessed in Weston-super-Mare.
It was Katie’s third marriage, after cage fighter Alex Reid and singer Peter Andre.
The couple then renewed their vows once more in October 2016 in Barbados after jetting off on a make or break holiday.
Heartbroken Katie discovered cheating husband Kieran Hayler had sex with their nanny all over the house — even romping in their children’s bathroom.
