AceShowbiz - Katie Price thinks "men are the downfall" in her life. Insisting all the "dramas" in her life can be traced to the guys she was seeing at the time, the 44-year-old former glamour model - who was previously married to Peter Andre, Alex Reid, and Kieran Hayler and currently has an on/off relationship with fiance Carl Woods - admitted much of her fortune has gone on the cost of her divorces, settlements at the end of the relationships, and splurging on gifts to keep men interested in her.
"You don't have to be a genius to work out that men are the downfall in my life. A million per cent. All my dramas, my bankruptcy - everything is men. Always men. That is it...," she said.
"When you see exes gloat around, knowing you've paid for stuff, that's the worst torment for me. My triggers, when I've gone downhill, are men. And I'm a sucker for love. I used to need validation. Men's approval. Wanting them to want me … but they don't."
But Katie - who has Harvey, 20, with Dwight Yorke, Junior, 17, and Princess, 15, with Peter, and Jett, nine, and eight-year-old Bunny with Kieran - insisted therapy has helped her and she no longer needs other people's approval to feel good about herself.
She told the Sunday Times magazine, "It's amazing, because you have to learn to love yourself. So I don't need their validation now, I don't need it any more."
The "Mucky Mansion" star admitted she "craves" leading a drama-free life following years of headline-grabbing antics. Asked if she can imagine leading a drama-free life, she said, "I would love it. Oh, I crave it. I'm trying to do it now. I don't want drama. I've sorted myself out. I've got help, I do therapy. I'm in control and happy now. It's all set."
Apart from Carl, Katie believes every man she's ever dated has cheated on her. She said, "Kieran even had an affair with the woman I bought the guinea pigs from."
