The couple exchanged vows just five weeks later, when Katie was already pregnant with the couple's first son, Jett.

However, in 2017, the couple announced they were divorcing, three years after she found out about Kieran's affairs with friends Jane Poutney and Chrissy Thomas.

In July 2019, Katie announced she was re-engaged to 32-year-old personal trainer Kris Boyson after a year of dating.

It wasn't to be, however, as Carl revealed in November 2022 that he had dumped Katie after claiming he had found out she had allegedly slept with someone else - and admitted it.

BRUSH WITH THE LAW

Katie is no stranger to court, having risked jail time on multiple occasions for various traffic violations.

Five years later, she landed three penalty points after being caught driving while using her cellphone.
