Katie Price admitted her son Junior is sometimes 'embarrassed' by her but she 'can't change who she is'. The former glamour model, 45, shares the 18-year-old and Princess Andre, 16, with her ex-husband Peter Andre.

During a chat with her sister Sophie on her podcast, The Katie Price Show, she was asked whether her children "are embarrassed of you." She responded: "Junior can be. But I've explained to Junior you can't change who I am. I am where I am because I am different-minded. I'm not boring and I don't hold back."

Speaking of what about her makes her aspiring singer son Junior cringe, the I'm A Celeb star explained: " I live in the moment and some of my dress choices if I go on a red carpet or because I'm filthy-minded, I think that can embarrass him, because he's quite reserved, Junior."

Earlier this month, the Mucky Mansion star took a swipe at her ex-husband while discussing the inspiration behind her children's names. The duo had "a lot of arguments" when it came to choosing Junior's name. Katie is also mum to son Harvey, 21, as well as Jett, nine, and Bunny, also nine. She shares her youngest children with her ex-husband Kieran Hayler.

While speaking on her podcast about her she came up with the unique names, Katie explained: "If you think of all my kids' names they're like American – so Harvey's name is very American because I named him after my grandad, who is American. The name Jett, that's also American and the only other person I know with that name Jett was John Travolta's son Jett and I remember liking it."

She continued: "I do normally like names you can't shorten – so like Harvey, well I call him Harv, Jett; you can call him Jay but... and then Junior is quite an American name and my grandad's brother was called Junior."

The star went on to explain the final decision to call her son Junior, saying: "The name Junior – he was a mini Pete but I didn't want to name Junior Savvas because that's what Pete's dad is called and I'm not Greek so I made it clear I didn't want to follow the Greek tradition because I'm not Greek and I shouldn't have to follow that." Taking aim at her former husband, Katie added: "There were lots of arguments about that but, anyway, I come up with Junior."
