Katie Price has admitted that when she first found out that her mum was dying, that she couldn’t see her for at least three weeks, she was so upset.
Appearing on Irish chat show The Ray D’Arcy Show, the 39 year old mum of five, revealed how she felt about her mum Amy’s terminal diagnosis.
“I always visualised my mum with me, you know, taking her shopping on a Saturday like I did with my Nan.”
“Or me caring for her when she got older. I’m training to be a paramedic at the moment as well, because I was training to be a nurse when I left school – you probably didn’t know that.”

“I always thought I’d be there to care for my mum, I thought she’d be there for Harvey’s 18th, that she’d be there for my other kids’ 16th’s, but the realistic thing is she won’t.”
The model also went on to reveal that Amy was also on a lung transplant list, but Katie said she wasn’t holding out much hope for that for her mum.
She said: “She’s now on the lung transplant list, but even then, it’s something like 90% don’t survive the operation. So it is a tough time at the moment.”
Katie also admitted that she has had to be realistic, and face the fact that her mum is dying, unlike her siblings.
She told host Ray D’Arcy: “I’m very matter of fact with my brothers and sisters and I’m like: ‘You do know mum, she is going to die? and they’re like: ‘No, she’ll be alright’. I’m like: ‘But she isn’t.'”

“Nobody wants to accept it but I am very matter of fact,” she added. “I say to my mum: ‘Come on, like, I know it sounds awful but even your funeral; what would you want for it?”
“Let’s get the best funeral ever! Because if you can plan your own funeral and stuff, it’s just easier for other people,” she joked.
“I try to be light hearted on it. Of course I love my mum to bits.”
Viewers of the show rushed to praise the star for her candour…
