Katie Price’s former best pal Jemma Lucy says her surgery obsession has got worse after husband Kieran’s affairs – and they even had Botox in her house in front of the children
Reality star used to live with the former glamour model and has lifted the lid on their friendship and love of Botox
JEMMA Lucy thinks Katie Price has become even more addicted to surgery since husband Kieran Hayler cheated on her.
The Ex on the Beach star is the former BFF of Katie, and at one point the two women lived together.
Katie was left reeling in 2014 when she discovered her third husband had been having affairs with two of her closest friends, Jane Pountney, 50, and Chrissy Thomas, 43, and Jemma believes the 38-year-old sought comfort in tweaking her appearance.
Speaking to , Jemma said: "The surgery is definitely linked to him having those affairs, the way she's acting now - playing up to the cameras and always flashing her chest - is all down to her insecurities.
"Katie was always talking about surgery and, no matter what she'd have done, she was never happy with it for long before she'd be looking to have something else done."
Jemma, 28, added that most stars who are in the limelight become "insecure" about their looks and Katie - formerly known as Jordan - is no different.
The women first grew close after Jemma appeared on Katie's reality show Signed By Katie Price in 2011, and soon after she moved into Katie's family home for five months.

However the pair have since fallen out, having last spoken a year ago, and its unlikely they will make amends any time soon after Jemma lifted the lid on the extent of her surgery obsession.
She continued about the mother-of-five: "Seeing Katie's obsession with surgery first-hand definitely increased mine.
"But I love the fake look and I do think she carries it off. But she'll never stop going under the knife.
"When I was living at her house, someone would come round and we'd all have Botox injections in front of the kids - they've grown up around it.
"It's just like you're having a cup of tea in front of them."
Jemma - who recently admitted she was now addicted to Botox herself - added how Katie has always compared herself to other women, whether it be upcoming stars or the exes of the men in her life, and she doesn't think the star will ever change.
She said: "People in the past have told her to stop getting procedures, but that will only spur her on."
