Princess Andre shares defiant message after mum Katie hits out over reality show

Princess Andre ignored all the drama around her upcoming ITV2 reality show this evening. She instead promoted a new store that's opening in London later this week ahead of the first episode of the Princess Diaries launching.

Princess, 18, who is the daughter of Katie Price, 47, and Peter Andre, 52, will be the focus of the ITV show, which is due to launch on the weekend. It's said to follow her as she builds "her brand" and deals with growing up in the spotlight.

Ahead of its debut, Katie has said that although she supports her eldest daughter, she won't be watching it. She's hit out at Princess' management for not "allowing" her to guide the teenager, who has followed in her footsteps as a model. It comes after Katie Price worries fans with appearance in family photo after explaining weight loss.

Princess was invited to beauty brand Space NK's new store in London ahead of it officially opening tomorrow. She was among the guests at a sneak peek event that was held at the shop, which is located on Oxford Circus, earlier today.

She posted about being at the event on Instagram, with her having initially uploaded a video of herself posing for photos outside the store. She stood in front of a sign, announcing that the site will be opening later this week, in the video.

The model is seen wearing a white top, blue jeans and a pair of white trainers in the footage, which showed someone taking photos of her on the pavement. She used two emojis, depicting a kiss mark and a white heart, as the caption.

She then gave her followers a glimpse inside the store, which was also visited by presenter Lisa Snowdon during the first-look event. Princess shared footage taken inside, including showcasing a display that caught her attention.

The blue display housed a number of Jellycat bag charms, which featured Space NK's logo, as part of a collaboration between the two brands. Princess tagged the soft toys brand and teased in a caption: "It's not a want it's a need."

The event comes ahead of Princess' reality TV show launching on Sunday. As previously reported, on the latest episode of the Katie Price Show podcast, her mother Katie said she offered to take part 'for free' but was turned down.

Katie said that she wasn't allowed to appear on the Princess Diaries and is "very, very upset" that her daughter's career is being managed by her ex-husband Peter's management, the CAN Group, who she claimed consider Katie to be "trash".

She said: "Princess is taking that same path [as my career] – trying to do the same as what I've done – which I absolutely love and adore of Princess but I have not been allowed to go on any photoshoot, no signings or Superdrug openings or anything like that. Why? Because I'm not allowed and I'm not welcome."

Dismissing rumours of a rift, Katie assured that she is on good terms with Princess herself. She said: "Me and Princess have never, ever, ever had an argument to this day or a disagreement. We get on like best friends, mother and daughter. Princess lives with me and she stays at her dad's. Now, she's been staying at her dad's the past two months because she's been filming her show. And our personal life together is amazing."
