Pregnant Katie Price slams maternity leave as ‘an excuse to do nothing’

Pregnant ex-glamour model explains why she won't be taking off any time before giving birth

Katie Price may be in her third trimester but don’t expect her to be putting her feet up any time soon as she claims maternity leave is ‘a load of rubbish’.



“It’s just an excuse for ladies to do nothing,” the former glamour model told Reveal.

“If you’re fit and healthy, you should keep busy and the time goes quicker.”

True to her word, the 35-year-old has worked right through her fourth pregnancy, her first child with third husband Kieran Hayler, 26.

Back in March, Katie (aka Jordan) launched her new range of equestrian equipment covering her baby bump in a bright pink pantomime horse costume.



Last week she appeared dressed as a fairytale princess at the start of a tour to promote her 49th book, “He’s The One”.

“I’m doing the book launch, then my perfume, then trips to LA and Australia, then my wedding dress launch and another book…and in between all of this, the baby is due,” she stated.

Katie’s comments come not long after the pregnant entrepreneur was turned away from a tanning salon with many criticizing her desire to hop on a sunbed.

“You can go on sunbeds when you’re pregnant,” she claimed after the incident two weeks ago. “It’s ridiculous.”

“But anyway, whatever anyone says, it’s my life and I do what I like.”
