Katie and Peter look set to play out their divorce in the same way they've played out their marriage – very much in the public eye.

10 BEST JORDAN AND PETER MOMENTS

Despite asking for 'privacy at this difficult time' yesterday, just hours after announcing their split they were already conducting interviews with national papers blaming each other for their relationship breakdown.

'I'm not jealous of anybody until Katie's drunk,' Peter Andre told The Sun. 'There's nobody I feel threatened by when she's sober.

'But if she's been drinking I know she's capable of anything. The devil gets inside her and she's a nightmare.'

Price, meanwhile, has rather dramatically 'fled the country' for an 'undisclosed location', but managed to find time to release a statement before she went.

'Pete is the love of my life and my life,' she wrote. 'We have children together and I am devastated and disappointed by his decision to separate and divorce me, as I married him for life. I will always love my Pete.'

News that the couple were separating didn't come as a huge surprise to anyone who'd been watching their fly-on-the-wall ITV2 show, Katie and Peter: Stateside, which has detailed row after row recently, including Jordan calling her husband 'an old f**king singer no one knows about' and Pete retaliating by labelling his wife a 'stupid arrogant cow'.

Apparently, however, the 'singer no one knows about' isn't at all happy about leaving his glamour model wife.

'He's very upset. This has all come as a complete shock,' a friend told the Mail. 'I did not want to ask him the reason for the split but I can tell you he is very upset.'
