She’s endured a tough few weeks, after learning that her mother Amy has been diagnosed as terminally ill – amid the breakdown of her marriage to Kieran Hayler.
And Katie Price was seen looking glum on Friday, as she was spotted making the trip to visit her beloved parent with her children Jett, four, and Bunny, three, by her side.
In photographs exclusively obtained by MailOnline, the 39-year-old former glamour model looks unusually low-key in a beige tracksuit with arm cut-outs as she emerges from her pink SUV and walks with her head down to spend time with ailing Amy.
Wearing her ombré tresses in a messy topknot, the former glamour model is seen wearing minimal makeup as she makes her way into the house in fluffy sliders.
Her adorable offspring walk just a few steps behind her, with the early autumn sunshine illuminating their curly golden locks.
When Amy does emerge from her abode, she is also struggles to raise smile as she holds hands with one of hr grandchildren.
The 64-year-old grandmother, who was recently diagnosed with terminal lung disease pulmonary fibrosis, wears a flowing black top with cropped green leggings and flat sandals as she enjoys some precious family time with her loved ones.
Last week, Katie announced at the last minute plans to postpone two dates on her touring show An Audience With…, following her mother’s diagnosis.
The former glamour model also recently revealed she suffered a miscarriage four days before discovering husband Kieran was cheating on her with their nanny, Nikki Brown, 40.

Heartbreaking: Appearing on Loose Women on Tuesday, 64-year-old Amy, who has terminal lung disease, revealed she is determined not to die before Katie ‘gets her life together’
Appearing with her daughter on Loose Women earlier this month, Amy revealed she is determined not to die before Katie ‘gets her life together’.
Amy has been diagnosed with progressive lung illness Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, which has an average life expectancy of three to five years – but insisted she would keep fighting to ensure her the star’s life is ‘settled’ before she goes.
She said: ‘I’m not going to peg off until she’s settled. I think its about time you got yourself together properly and took life more seriously and be settled.’
The defensive mother-of-five hit back, insisting: ‘Mum I get it off you, you treat me like a kid. We’re so close knit, because we’ve had so many dramas in life we have this defence mechanism. Shes very fit, this is why I don’t understand why she has it.’
In another shocking admission, Katie blurted out that she had miscarried her and Kieran’s child in the days leading up to discovering he was sleeping with their nanny Nikki Brown.

She said: ‘I had a miscarriage four days before. On the Monday I had a miscarriage and then four days later I found out and now this one [pointing at her mum]”.
‘It’s like… Jesus.’
Katie’s fellow Loose Women star Andrea McLean admitted such information was known “behind the scenes”, but not in public.
In July 2009, Katie revealed she had suffered a miscarriage weeks before the end of her marriage to Peter Andre.

Going into more detail about her condition, Amy admitted she was fuming about being diagnosed as she had always been healthy and never smoked
Going into more detail about her condition, Amy went on to explain: ‘I was under local doctor for about five years for asthma, I kept going back saying inhalers arent working.
‘Then i had a chest infection they said ok go and have an X-ray and something showed up.
‘My doctor referred me to a specialist, he said yes, you’ve got a condition
‘It meas that there’s scarring of the lungs and it actually stop you breathing. It’s progressive – in the end you wont be able to breath.’
Amy went on to say she was furious to be struck down with such a condition – as she has always worked hard on staying healthy.
She said: ‘I’ve never smoked. I’ve always been a sports person. I go to the gym every morning, I do maybe two hours every morning and I’ve done that for years and years and I’ve never smoked. And that’s why I was so surprised I’ve got a lung condition.
‘I’m fuming. I’m fuming over it because I’ve been healthy all of my life.’
The heartbreaking interview came after Katie paid an emotional tribute to her ‘fighter’ mum Amy after she was diagnosed with a terminal lung illness, days after confirming her marriage to cheating husband Kieran Hayler is over.
Calling her mother a ‘fighter’ spirit, she praised Amy for carrying on as normal and continuing to ‘live life to the full’.

Katie previously said she was determined to stay optimistic following Amy’s heart-breaking diagnosis – and even attempted to lift her mother’s spirits following a recent hospital consultation.
She told The Sun: ‘She’s got something wrong with her lungs and she’s been told she hasn’t got very long to live. She’s on tablets… at least I’m making her laugh. Whatever is happening we’ve got to be upbeat about it.’
Amy, a constant support to Katie throughout her colourful show business career, confirmed her daughter had lightened the mood during her early examinations.
‘During the tests, which were really quite personal, she was making so many funny comments that both myself and the specialist were in fits of laughter,’ she recalled.
‘That’s what I like about Katie – her sense of humour. I was given some bad news. She said, “Mum, you haven’t got long left, you might as well make the most of it.”’
Emotional: ‘She’s got something wrong with her lungs and she’s been told she hasn’t got very long to live,’ she told The Sun
The news comes shortly after the TV personality revealed she was separating from husband Kieran, a former stripper, after discovering his six month fling with their children’s nanny.
Discussing the separation on Loose Women, Katie admitted she had thought their ‘marriage and sex life was perfect’ – before hinting there was ‘more to come out’ regarding Kieran and their reason for ending the marriage.
She said: ‘It is what it is, and what you’ve read. Years ago I caught Kieran cheating. I paid for therapy to get him help. As far as I knew our marriage and sex life was perfect, our family unit was perfect.

‘I employed a nanny to come in and I’ve caught him again having an affair with my nanny for a year. Sleeping with her in my house – but there’s other things that are going to come out.’
Referencing his previous infidelities, she then admitted she had not been hugely shocked by the affair, adding: ‘Here I am again! I think when someone stabs the knife in the first time and they twist it, I was literally distraught.
‘I suppose this time was I expecting it to happen again? Was my guard up? Because I’m acting completely different this time.’
‘My kids are older, they know what’s going on and for me I love coming to work. He’s got to get help. It’s not normal behaviour, especially when you’re in a happy marriage.’
