Katie Price looks casually chic in a black lace top and Gucci trousers at Wagatha Christie play gala

She recently broke her silence on her ex Kieran Hayler’s arrest over child neglect.

But Katie Price, 44, didn’t let the recent drama get in the way of her busy schedule as she was seen attending the gala event for the Vardy v Rooney: The Wagatha Christie Trial play with fiancé Carl Woods on Thursday.

The play, which is being held at the Ambassadors Theatre in London, is a dramatization of Rebekah Vardy and Coleen Rooney’s £3 million Wagatha Christie libel trial which was held at the High Court of Justice in 2022.

Katie opted to go for a more casual chic look for her outing to the theatre and she posed up a storm at the red carpet for the event.

The media personality kept things simple by pairing a black lace top with loose-fitting Gucci trousers that showed off her midriff.

He is father to Jett, nine, and Bunny, eight, who he shares with Katie. 

When Katie returned to the UK from a trip abroad she told The Sun: ‘I’m here to protect my children.’ 

As well as her comment to The Sun, Katie also shared a cryptic post which read: ‘A person’s true colors will always show within time. You may be fooled for the moment, but be patient and see what happens.’ 

Kieran was bizarrely all smiles on Sunday morning, as he was released from police custody. The former stripper and personal trainer, 36, grinned widely as he left the police station in the early hours of the morning.

Later that day, he was seen coming out of his house in West Sussex, joined by his fiancée Michelle Penticost, 40, their baby son Apollo, 20 months, and her son Valentino, 12, from a previous relationship.

It comes after MailOnline revealed Kieran is assisting ‘police with their investigation’ after being ‘arrested on suspicion of child neglect and possession of a firearm’.

The TV personality was taken into Sussex Police custody for questioning, The Mirror reported.

Kieran has not been charged with any crime, police told MailOnline.

A source close to him – who did not comment on the nature of the allegations – also confirmed that he is ‘assisting police with their enquiries’. 

The arrest is said to have happened at his home in West Sussex. Neighbours told The Sun that cops swarmed on the property over allegations he used the weapon with ‘intent to cause fear of violence’.

Locals claimed Kieran was arrested around 4pm in a ‘very dramatic’ scene.

‘A police van and car suddenly turned up on the driveway of their home,’ one neighbour recalled, adding that they later heard the ‘quite frightening’ incident involved a gun.
