Chris Hughes takes another swipe at Katie Price amid ongoing text war

Over to you, Katie...

Chris Hughes has kept his feud with Katie Price alive and well by retweeting a rather unflattering joke about her.

Clearly still holding a grudge against the ex glamour model, reality star Chris decided he’d share a little joke about Katie with his 425,000 followers on Twitter.

He’d been scrolling through his mentions when he saw the quip from comedian Dapper Laughs, which was written in response to a story about Katie’s alleged plans to crack America.

Naughty Dapper Laughs tweeted: “How’s she gona crack America when she couldn’t even crack Chris Hughes?”

Oops.

Chris seemed to love the joke and merrily retweeted it to his followers.

Well, that’s according to The Sun anyway, as the tweet no longer appears on Chris’ account – perhaps he had second thoughts?

Or maybe he just didn’t want to enrage Katie again and prolong the row?

In case you’ve been living in a cave for the past couple of weeks, let us rewind and fill you in on the whole sorry saga.

Love Island star Chris, 24, has been locked in a war with Katie, 38, over allegations she sent him flirty text messages despite knowing he has a girlfriend, Olivia Attwood, 26.

It all started over the summer while country boy Chris was gaining a new legion of admirers on Love Island – including married Katie.

They got their chance to meet after the show ended, when Chris appeared on Katie’s show Loose Women for an interview, and a bit of flirting (from Katie) occurred.

That was it. Case closed.

Except it wasn’t… Chris later nonchalantly revealed in a mag interview that mum of five Katie had been sending him flirty text messages, but he hadn’t been replying because he’s a taken man.

Katie – who is divorcing third husband Kieran Hayler – immediately fired back that no such messages existed.

So Chris decided he’d post a lot of screengrabbed texts to Twitter appearing to show Katie reaching out to him in flirty style.

Oh dear.

What ensued was a back and forth between Chris and Katie that all got a bit messy with Chris accusing Katie of sending “threatening” messages to Olivia, and Katie then claiming she owns texts proving Chris did actually reply to her.

We told you: messy.

Chris issued a warning to Katie in a strongly-worded tweet earlier this week that was so long, he needed to type the essay in his notes before sharing it to social media.

It’s pretty long so we’ll summarise it here (though feel free to read the WHOLE thing above): “Katie Price, get your head out of your [bleep] and focus on your own life, your children and stop harassing myself and Olivia.

“I’m done with your [bleep]. Leave me and my girlfriend alone to live our lives, and don’t threaten her again saying you will destroy our careers.

“You’ve been shamed. Live with it, move on.”

Yikes, Chris. Don’t told back…
