She wrote: “I call this a ‘dip’, he calls this a ‘what the bloody hell are you doing?’, and so we laughed… #lovelookssogoodonyou #happynewyear #dip #laughter.”

Mum-of-one Katie has been married twice.

She wed second husband Brian Moote in secret in October 2015 after dating for a year.

Their union only lasted a year before they split in 2016.

Katie was previously married to male model Brad Alphonso but they fared even worse, splitting after just two months of marriage in December 2012.

In 2018 she split from boyfriend Andy Speer seven weeks after giving birth to their son Hudson.

Meanwhile Katie recently broke her silence following the news of her grandma’s death at the age of 93.

The 36-year-old was estranged from Sheila Vogel-Coupe, who was known as the UK’s oldest prostitute.

In an emotional Instagram live, Katie suggested she was unaware of her death until her auntie Josie shared her story with The Sun.

Katie said:  “I have been made aware of the news about my 93-year-old grandmother passing away. It is understandably a sad and sensitive time. It’s a very sensitive subject to be made public unbeknownst to any of us.

“It is very disrespectful for someone in the family to disclose that information without anybody knowing.”

Addressing her relationship with her nan, the X Factor star continued: “I never had an issue with what she did. I had an issue with the fact I messaged her and said grandma ‘we will work through this as a family’.

“The next day she said I ruined her life as a prostitute and a porn star on national TV at the height of my vulnerability after we had spoken about it by text message.”

The mum-of-one added: “I am not going to sit here and say I am heartbroken, I am heartbroken but I am more heartbroken that 12 years on that said people, be it a family specific member, are making it public.”
