Princess Andre Opens Up on Life with Katie Price — and Admits ‘There Weren’t Many Rules’ Growing Up

Princess Andre is stepping into the spotlight — and she’s not holding back about what life was really like growing up with two of Britain’s most famous parents.

The 18-year-old daughter of former glamour model Katie Price and singer-turned-TV personality Peter Andre is fronting her own reality show, The Princess Diaries, which launches Sunday, August 10 at 9pm on ITV2. The series promises a mix of glamour, family insight, and unfiltered honesty as Princess takes her first major solo step into the entertainment world.

In a sneak peek clip aired during the ITV Reality event, Princess is seen chatting with her older brother Junior Andre about their unconventional childhood. With cameras capturing the candid exchange, she reflects on the household rules — or, more accurately, the lack of them — when living with their mum.

“There weren’t many rules,” Princess says with a knowing smile. “It was… different. I think Mum wanted us to have freedom, but sometimes it meant things got a bit chaotic.”

Junior laughs in agreement, hinting that their father Peter’s home was run in a very different way. “Yeah, Dad was stricter,” he adds. “Bedtimes, routines, all that. Mum’s was more… relaxed.”

Two Worlds, One Childhood

Princess and Junior have long lived between two worlds: the more structured environment of Peter Andre’s home and the freer, sometimes headline-making chaos of Katie Price’s. The siblings have spoken in the past about how each parent offered contrasting approaches to parenting.

Katie Price, a fixture in British tabloids for over two decades, has been open about letting her children “learn by experience.” Her free-spirited style often clashed with Peter’s more traditional rules, especially after their highly publicised split in 2009.

Princess admits in the clip that the contrast shaped who she is today. “It’s made me adaptable,” she says. “I know how to be organised when I need to be, but I also know how to just go with it.”

Launching The Princess Diaries

The new series is expected to follow Princess’s life as she navigates adulthood, career ambitions, and the pressures — and perks — of having famous parents. ITV insiders promise viewers will see “the real Princess” beyond the red carpets and Instagram posts.

“We’ll get her unfiltered thoughts on family, fame, and what she really wants for her future,” said an ITV2 spokesperson. “It’s about finding her voice.”

The show will also feature appearances from Junior, friends, and possibly both parents, though producers are staying tight-lipped on whether Katie or Peter will have recurring roles.

Fans React to the ‘No Rules’ Confession

The “no rules” admission has already sparked conversation online. On Twitter, some users praised Katie Price’s parenting approach. “Freedom helps kids become independent,” one fan wrote. Others were more critical, suggesting too much freedom can be harmful. “Boundaries are important — fame or no fame,” one post read.

Long-time followers of the Price-Andre family dynamic weren’t surprised. “Anyone who’s watched their interviews over the years knows Peter runs a tighter ship,” one entertainment blogger commented. “It’s been part of their family story since the split.”

Growing Up in the Public Eye

Born in 2007, Princess’s life has been documented in magazines, reality shows, and social media posts since infancy. Her curls, inherited from her father, and her photogenic smile made her an instant tabloid favourite. But fame at such a young age came with challenges.

Princess has previously said she struggled with constant comparisons to her mum and public scrutiny over her looks and fashion choices. In recent years, she’s worked to establish her own identity, building a steady following on Instagram and securing modelling work.

Balancing Privacy and Public Life

In the ITV2 clip, Princess also hints at the fine line between sharing her life and keeping some things private. “People think they know everything about us because they’ve seen us grow up in the media,” she says. “But there’s a lot they don’t see. This show is my chance to tell my side.”

Junior, now 19 and pursuing music, nods in agreement, saying, “It’s good for people to see who we actually are, not just the headlines.”

Looking Ahead

For Princess, The Princess Diaries could be the start of a long career in television. Industry insiders see her as a natural fit for presenting or fashion-related projects, thanks to her confident screen presence and strong social media influence.

Whether her parents will watch every episode remains to be seen. But one thing is certain: Princess is ready to step out from their shadows — and if her candid “no rules” confession is anything to go by, she won’t shy away from telling the truth about her upbringing.

As Sunday night approaches, ITV2 is banking on curiosity, nostalgia, and a dose of family drama to draw in viewers. And for Princess Andre, it’s the perfect platform to finally answer the question that’s followed her for years: Who is she when she’s not Katie Price’s daughter?
