ALEX Reid almost stormed out of a radio show after the host introduced him as Katie Price’s ex-husband.
The 44-year-old said he wants be referred to as an actor rather than being defined by his relationship with the former glamour model.
His outburst comes after Katie, 41, alleged all her former partners all made money out their connection to her.
Speaking to The Sun’s Executive Editor Dan Wootton on talkRADIO Alex said: “I thought to myself, I heard you call me Katie Price’s ex. I nearly, a part of me said I’m not going to come on this show.
“It’s that bad. Then I thought no, I’m going to be bigger than this.
“I have a life way beyond that lady, I use the term loosely.”
Alex then went on to say he had a discussion with Dan previously who suggested he had come into the limelight because of his relationship with her.
The former cage fighter added: “Maybe but that’s not the sort of public I want and I was a diligent athlete. I had over 300 competitions.
“The money I made from fighting I used to fund me to go to Guildford School of Acting. One of the best acting schools in the country. I tread the boards.”
Alex married Katie in February 2010 in Las Vegas and the pair separated almost a year later in January 2011.
Since their split the pair have had several public spats including allegations that Katie shared sexual images of him.
Yet, despite their issues Alex told Dan that he doesn’t have a revengeful bone in his body and “I don’t concentrate on Katie Price”.
He added: “I never wanted to be famous for how I have become famous.”
Since training at the Guildford School of Acting Alex has gone on to land a role in Seven starring Nineties heart throb Dean Kane – who he only met on set once.
Speaking about the film he said: “I’m his henchman, like his right hand man. I do all the naughty work.
“I was on the set for like four or five days and I did my scenes and I was out.”

Outside of acting Alex revealed on Instagram that his fiance had devastatingly lost a baby for the fifth time.
He told Dan: “It’s very sad, but you know I get knocked out, I get knocked down but I get up again.
“I’m going to keep going. We are going to have a child and that is the only way I can be.”
