Katie Price is keen to expand her family, saying having another baby is a ‘no brainer’ for her.
The former glamour model, 45, made the revelation not long after ex-husband Peter Andre, 50, announced that he and his wife Emily, 34, are expecting another child.
Mum-of-five Katie already shares son Junior, 18, and daughter Princess, 16, with the Mysterious Girl hitmaker, to whom she was married from 2005 until 2009.
The reality TV star also has eldest Harvey, 21, with ex Dwight Yorke, as well as Jett, 10, and Bunny, nine, with ex-husband Kieran Hayler.
But despite her house already being very hectic, it’s the more the merrier as far as Katie is concerned.
Speaking on her podcast, The Katie Price Show, she said: ‘I would love another baby or more, that’s just a no-brainer.

‘I’m just very maternal, I love babies.’
Katie also talked about her struggles with conceiving when she was younger.
‘Try and have them as late as I have. I started young – just remember as you get older it’s not easy,’ she shared.
This isn’t the first time Katie has spoken about wanting to have more children in her forties.
She did have plans to welcome a sixth child via surrogate with on-off partner Carl Woods, with murmurs of the whole thing being documented for a TV show.
Alas, in August, the fan Katie had enlisted to carry her child reportedly ‘pulled out’ after feeling ‘disrespected’ by the star, despite Katie’s hopes that she could give her babies six and seven by having twins.
A source told Mail Online that she felt Katie treated her and her other four kids ‘like s**t’.

‘Katie’s surrogate feels completely let down,’ they said.
‘She sacrificed a lot of time and energy getting to know Katie and verbally agreeing to carry her baby, which is a huge decision.
‘As a fan of Katie’s, this was something that she wanted to do until they finally met in person, and she was treated appallingly.’
Katie’s children with Pete are already showing signs of following in their famous parents’ footsteps.
Alongside her college studies, Princess has ventured into fashion influencing and modelling, working with brands including PrettyLittleThing and Shein.
Junior, meanwhile, is a little Pete in the making, pursuing his own career in music and scoring chart success with his first two singles.
Both are preparing to welcome a younger sibling next year when Emily gives birth to her third child – the doctor already has Amelia, 10, and Theo, six, with Pete.

But while Princess congratulated her dad and step-mum on social media, Junior has remained quiet after previously saying he didn’t want any more siblings due to the age gap.
When asked if he’d like to become a big brother again, Junior told The Mirror in a joint interview with Pete in 2021: ‘No, because I think the age gap would be too big.
‘If Emily got pregnant now, that means the baby would be born when I’m almost 17 and I don’t think the same strong bond would be there.
‘I’ll be close to moving out of the house. I want to be the big brother they love so much and not someone they hardly ever see. I have six siblings already so there are quite a few of us.’
