Organisers have said that Katie Price has dropped out of an event just days before she was due to perform. The news was shared today, with it suggested that she will no longer take to the stage due to "unforeseen circumstances".
Katie, 47, had been due to make an appearance at Barnsley Pride over the weekend. The event - which is just one of the Pride celebrations that are taking place in the UK this summer - will be held in the town of Barnsley on Saturday. She was scheduled to headline the afterparty at nightclub Funny Gals. It was previously advertised that Kerry Katona, 44, would be the headliner, with Katie said to have replaced her pal after she previously pulled out of it herself.
Organisers of the afterparty shared the news on social media this afternoon. They wrote: "Important announcement. We sincerely apologise to all our visitors who are looking forward to join us for our Barnsley Pride 2025 events."
They continued by saying that Katie would no longer headline. Organisers wrote: "Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, Katie Price will no longer be headlining our Funny Gals Main Stage / After Dark Official Pride Afterparty."
Fans were told that those behind the event were "disappointed". They said: "We want to make it clear that this is beyond our control and that we are genuinely disappointed, as we were very excited to have her as part of our line up of amazing acts.
"Additionally, the original headliner, Kerry Katona, also had to cancel due to personal reasons. The entire team here at Funny Gals shares in this disappointment, and we deeply regret any inconvenience or disappointment caused."
Organisers then provided details of the "incredible line-up of acts" that are still scheduled to perform. They concluded: "We look forward to celebrating pride with you and thank you for your understanding and continued support."
It's stated that the afterparty will feature drag artist Vicki Vivacious, who appeared on RuPaul's Drag Race UK back in 2023. The line-up for the event is said to also include X Factor's Sami Brooks, a Pink tribute act and other performers.
Last month, Katie performed at a Pride event in Portsmouth. She later shared that she had an "amazing night" at Portsmouth Pride, where she performed songs such as We Don't Have to Take Our Clothes Off and I Got U.
Katie, who was joined by her daughter Princess Andre at the event, was seen on stage in footage shared on social media. At one point, she brought reality TV star Ella Morgan onto the stage.
They paid tribute to each other at the gig and Katie said that despite speculation they "love each other". She also poked fun at Ella having been romantically linked to Katie's partner JJ Slater whilst on Married at First Sight.
