Katie Price has rubbished claims of an imminent ninth marriage proposal as she prepares to spend her first Christmas with boyfriend JJ Slater.
The former glamour model, whose previous three marriages ended in divorce, was said to be keen on taking her 11-month romance with Married At First Sight star Slater, 31, to the next level over the festive period.
But sources close to Price, 46, have since refuted any suggestion of a planned engagement to the reality TV personality, who she started dating in January.
An insider told MailOnline: ‘No, Katie’s not planning on proposing.’
Price has previously been engaged eight times and has three ex husbands – Peter Andre, Alex Reid and Kieran Hayler.

An insider told OK!: ‘Katie wants it to be really special and magical – to make a really big deal of it. She absolutely loves Christmas. It’s a really special time for her, especially with the kids.
‘It’s about new horizons, and she really wants to do something big to show how happy she is with where she’s at in her life.
‘A proposal to JJ would be perfect for that, so she is really considering it.’
In April, the couple sparked engagement rumours following a romantic trip to an English retreat.
Price shared a snap of a neon sign from Secret Cabins in West SusSєx, emblazoned with the message: ‘Will you marry me?’
In June, insiders revealed that she’s ready to get serious about her future family plans.

A friend told The Sun: ‘She’s happy and she has always said she wants even more children so that’s what she aiming for.’
‘She knows she doesn’t have much time if she wants to try,’ the insider added. ‘Katie has always fallen pregnant quite easily in the past, but now she is older, she worries it might not happen as quickly so she doesn’t want to wait until it’s too late.
‘Katie knows some people will think it’s too soon with JJ but she doesn’t care what other people think – she’s confident in their relationship and thinks he’d be a great dad.’

The Real Husbands of Katie Price
In the decades since she first rose to fame, Katie Price has enjoyed – and quite likely endured – a decidedly busy love life that has seen her walk down the aisle three times before heading to divorce court in equal measure. Here’s a look at the trio with whom she exchanged ‘I dos’… and ‘I don’ts’:
PETER ANDRE (2005 – 2009)
The nation got to watch love blossom between the pair when they starred alongside one another on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here back in 2004. The flying sparks soon became nuptials, with blushing bride Katie and her erstwhile pop hunk beau tying the knot at Highclere Castle (the grand Berkshire estate of Downton Abbey fame) in September 2005. Katie, who was already mother to son Harvey (born in 2002 following a romance with former footballer Dwight Yorke), soon started a family with her new husband. The couple welcomed son Junior in 2005, while daughter Princess followed in 2007. Creation between the pair also came artistically, with the release of reality programmes, a failed talk show and a foray into the music world. However, after four years of securing their position as the Ken and Barbie of reality TV and glossy magazine deals, the pair announced in 2009 that they were going their separate ways.
ALEX REID (2010 – 2012)
Katie soon switched her romantic allegiance from a onetime ab-bearing pop heartthrob to musclebound MMA fighter Alex Reid. The two met at Michelle Heaton’s 30th birthday party at London’s Cafe de Paris. But shortly after they got together, Katie dumped Alex on live TV, only for him to win her back and the pair go from strength to strength. Weeks after proudly cheering her man on to a win on the 2010 edition of Celebrity Big Brother (also featuring none other than her ex-boyfriend Dane Bowers), Katie jetted off to Las Vegas to tie the knot with her new partner in February 2010 after just seven months of dating – and nine months after divorcing Peter. Following their Sin City sojourn, the pair returned to their native UK, where they had a formal ceremony – which was filmed for a TV series. However, after just 11 months of marriage, the pair announced they were splitting and their divorce was finalised in March 2012. While Katie declared at the time that she married Alex ‘too soon’, she would later go on to reveal that a major factor in their split was his cross-dressing alter-ego Roxanne.
KIERAN HAYLER (2013 – 2021)
Showing herself to be a true woman of the times, Katie embarked on a romance with former stripper Kieran after the two met on the now-defunct Blackberry Messenger service in 2012. And just two months after altering the paths of their lives via those thumb-tapped fateful opening messages, the twosome would go on to exchange nuptials in the Caribbean. Kieran proposed to a thrilled Katie on Christmas Day 2012, and just three weeks later, the pair would be pronounced husband and wife in the idyllic shores of the Bahamas on January 16, 2013. They had their marriage blessed in Weston-super Mare, and in the months that followed, it appeared that Katie had finally found her happily ever after. They welcomed son Jett in August 2013, and daughter Bunny in August 2014. But Katie’s world came crashing down in 2014, when she discovered that Kieran had cheated on her with her close friend of 20 years, Jane Pountney, and was enjoying a fling with another of her pals, Chrissy Thomas. After publicly lashing out at all parties involved (and naming her pet pigs after her friends-turned-foes), Katie appeared determined to make things work when she renewed her vows with Kieran in 2015. But alas, it would not turn out to be third time lucky for Katie, as the pair split in 2018 amid even more cheating allegations. Their ‘amicable’ divorce was finalised in early 2021.
