After coming face-to-face at Tuesday night’s National Television Awards, former couple, Katie Price and Peter Andre reportedly enjoyed a friendly greeting.

Almost ten years after that break-up, it looks like these two have finally put the past behind them.

The Sun Online reports that Katie, 39, and Peter, 44, were in the same VIP box at the glitzy event and instead of an awkward confrontation, the pair were … (wait for it)… friendly.

The source said: “Katie was in the box when Pete walked in. Everyone froze and thought it would be dead awkward.

“They smiled, hugged one another, pecked on the cheek and went their separate ways.”

And they both clearly had fun at the event, with Peter posting on Instagram: “Enjoying the NTAs.”

It was followed by a morning-after post, that read: ‘Great night last night at the #nta’.

If a friendly greeting at a glam event doesn’t sound like much, you clearly haven’t been following Katie and Peter’s former relationship closely enough.

The former couple, who met in the jungle during an appearance on 2004’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here, married in 2005.

They had two children, Junior, now 12, and Princess, now 10, and enjoyed a few years of PDA-filled outings.

Remember Katie’s ‘Mrs Andre’ knickers? We do.

But things turned sour in 2009 when they split, followed by a series of angry and public swipes at each other.

In 2011, Pete blamed the split entirely on his ex, saying: “Something big happened, which I won’t reveal as I don’t want my kids reading it.

“Katie knows 100 per cent the reason why I left her and I am 100 per cent sure that what happened definitely did happen.”

But Katie later insisted other people interfered in their split, saying: “I didn’t want to divorce him. I wanted to be with him. If there wasn’t certain people, I know we would’ve made up.”

She later added: “I thought I had that fairytale with Pete.”

But things between them have reportedly changed in recent months, after Katie’s mum Amy was diagnosed with a terminal lung condition.

Unconfirmed reports have claimed kind-hearted Peter has been offering support to Katie during this tough time.

He’s now happily married to wife Emily, the mother of his two youngest children: Amelia, four, and Theo, one.

Katie, meanwhile, is wed to husband Kieran, the father of her two youngest kids: Jett, four, and Bunny, two.
