An insider said: “Katie and Kerry are thick as thieves since starring in panto and moving in together during the show’s run.

“They have loved working together and everyone has raved about how funny they are as a double act.

“They are keen to do some TV projects together and have been in talks with various broadcasters. No deal has been done yet but it’s only a matter of time - they’re both tv gold on their own so together it will be unmissable viewing.”

They are both no stranger to reality TV and have had their own shows in the past.

Katie moved in with Kerry over panto season and it came at perfect timing to support her pal following the sudden split from her fiancé Ryan.

Kerry and Katie first became close during their I’m A Celebrity jungle stint in 2004.

The former Atomic Kitten star was even a bridesmaid at her wedding to Peter Andre in 2005.

Speaking previously about their friendship, Kerry said:  “I wasn’t keen on Jordan at all. I didn’t like Jordan. But then I met Kate in the jungle and then I got to see Kate and I love Kate.”

While Katie has supported Kerry emotionally through her break up, Kerry is said to have been offering Katie financial advice.

She previously persuaded her to sign up to OnlyFans, which is how she made back her millions after bankruptcy.

Kerry explained: “I introduced Kate to it.

"I was like, 'Kate, do it. Honest to God you’d be stupid not to. The pictures you’re putting on Instagram, why don’t you just put them on OnlyFans and make money off it?'”

Katie Price's missing millions

At the peak of her career Katie had an estimated fortune of £45m, thanks to her lucrative modelling career, book deals, and TV appearances.

The cash-strapped mum-of-five was first declared bankrupt in 2019 over unpaid debts of £3.2 million.

In a podcast interview earlier this year, she blamed her exes who include Peter AndreAlex Reid and Kieran Hayler and lawyers for her money woes.

She insisted that funding her exes' lavish lifestyles with cars, watches, luxury holidays and homes left her finances in tatters.

She added: "I went through a breakdown, this is how mine started - lawyers and exes, that is my bankruptcy thing.

"And obviously a bit of HMRC.

"When I had my breakdown, if anyone has been depressed… I don't know if you've ever had depression.

"It starts with depression and you just want to sleep all day and not talk to anyone, the phone would ring and you wouldn't answer it.'

In March, Katie was declared bankrupt for a second time over an unpaid tax bill of £761,994.05.

The demand for payment was made by HMRC last October.

Katie was due to give evidence about her finances at the High Court but failed to turn up - holidaying in Cyprus with her new man JJ Slater instead.

Her Mucky Mansion was a bomb site for years after it was burgled, flooded and swamped by an overflowing septic tank.

She finally moved out at the end of May and is renting a four-bed mansion in Sussex.
