Katie Price has risked facing the wrath of Victoria Beckham’s camp by taking a fresh swipe at the fashion designer.
The former glamour model, 48, and Spice Girls star, 52, have a well-documented history of beef, which began in the early 2000s when Katie’s then-boyfriend, Dane Bowers, collaborated with VB on the single Out Of Your Mind.
And in 2001, as Katie supported Dwight Yorke in the Manchester United players’ lounge, she alleged that Victoria began singing Who Let the Dogs Out when she entered.
Of course, Katie is no stranger to a public tongue-lashing, and Victoria has had her own fair share of controversial headlines, most recently fuelled by the fallout with her own son, Brooklyn.
Reflecting on her row with the Beckhams, Katie has now made a rather brutal dig at Victoria’s Netflix documentary as she gears up to release her own.
Ahead of the launch of Katie Price: Nothing to Hide, the reality star branded the Wannabe hitmaker’s 2025 docuseries, which offered a candid insight into her marriage, career, and early life, ‘boring’.
‘I won’t watch her Netflix documentary because I think it’s manufactured, edited, and boring,’ Katie told The Sun.
‘What I know about my documentary is, I have had nothing to do with the edit. I’m not a polished turd. I’ve been as honest as I can be with all of it.’
Katie also recalled feeling like she ‘wasn’t good enough’ when Victoria was on the scene in the early noughties, explaining in her Sky doc that she was deemed ‘nothing’ when Dane (whom she dated from 1998 to 2000) was with her.
‘Our relationship was just perfect until he worked with Victoria, in my eyes. It made me feel like I wasn’t enough. She was trying to set him up with her friend. She bought me a pair of pink fluffy shoes as well.’
Still, despite her scathing remarks, Katie insists that she has no hard feelings towards Victoria.
‘Today, I can say, “She’s done well. I respect her as a woman”.’

Katie has never shied away from expressing her feelings towards the former pop star, once branding her ‘Misery Spice’.
In 2004, she complimented Victoria’s dress sense of style but blatantly said she’s not ‘good-looking’.
‘I don’t think she’s pretty. She’s average,’ the I’m A Celebrity star said in an interview, also calling her alleged rendition of Baha Men’s Who Let the Dogs Out at Old Trafford ‘immature, low, and sad’.
And in 2013, she ripped into her parenting skills, telling The Sun that while she’s sure Victoria is a ‘brilliant mum’ with ‘a lot of love’ for her kids, she ought to be more transparent.
‘I don’t think she’s being entirely honest,’ Katie claimed.
‘What you don’t see in all the shots of her being the perfect mum is the nanny who is probably pushing the buggy behind her.’
‘You never see Victoria looking anything less than immaculate, and there is no way you can achieve that, day in day out, without help if you’re a working mum with four kids,’ she added.
Victoria has a famously stoic expression in most photographs and has long poked fun at her own lack of a smile, joking that she appears ‘moody’ but is ‘smiling on the inside’.
However, in 2016, Katie used her appearance on Loose Women to insult her gnashers, claiming there’s another reason for her pout.

After Gloria Hunniford said she didn’t like the way Victoria never beams her pearly whites, Katie retorted: ‘Well, that’s because she has horrible teeth. I’m sorry, but she does.’
These days, Victoria tends to steer clear of responding to rumours – she hasn’t even really responded to eldest Brooklyn’s shocking takedown from January, in which he accused his parents of ‘controlling’ him from a young age and ‘disrespecting’ his wife, Nicola Peltz, driving a firm wedge between them.
She did talk about Katie once, though, calling her ‘very sweet’ while appearing on T4 in the 2000s and being grilled on whether they could have a friendship one day.
Katie Price’s new documentary shows her true colours at last – it’s heartbreaking
Review by Alana Anderson, based on the first episode of Katie Price: Nothing to Hide.
Of course, some would argue that Katie isn’t a fragile figure; she’s just the UK’s biggest publicity hound and will be for the rest of her life.
But after watching her describe her life in her own words, it’s clear to see she’s a victim.
A victim of sexual abuse, a victim of relationship trauma, and a victim of an industry that has chewed her up and spat her out at the cost of her own sanity.
‘I’ve never had time to reflect, and it’s about time I look at what I’ve really done – I know I’ve hurt people, and I know I’ve made mistakes,’ she admits.
Her rollercoaster life has been entertaining banter for us all for decades, but seeing Katie’s striking vulnerability and accountability has been a long time coming.

‘I don’t really know her anymore, so I very much doubt we would become best friends,’ Posh Spice said.
Asked if she reckons she’s had the ‘last laugh’, she replied with: ‘I think so. I mean, sometimes it’s frustrating, because people believe it (what’s in the papers), you know, when it says that I’ve shut shops and I’ve spent this much money, and it’s not true.
‘I can understand that’s really annoying for people to read. I think you have to turn a blind eye to it, because you can’t get upset about all the things that are said.
‘But with Jordan, I’m not quite so sure what we would have in common now.’
Victoria then said she ‘doesn’t have any problems with anyone’ because ‘life’s too short’.
‘The press will sort, you know, all these feuds and all these arguments, and I think life’s too short.’
Reps for Victoria Beckham have been contacted for comment.
Katie Price: Nothing to Hide is available on Sky and NOW from July 8.
