Katie Price Set to Adopt

Katie Price Set to Adopt
Katie Price, aka Jordan, aka that British lady with the huge norks, said she was so moved by a BBC documentary about abandoned children, she decided to adopt a child herself. The BBC4 documentary, Bulgaria’s Abandoned Children, showed the plight of physically and mentally disabled children in an run-down orphanage.

The documentary moved Katie so much, she and husband Peter Andre would like to add a Bulgarian orphan to their family.

Katie, 30, told The Sun: “We want to be able to help a child to have a better life.

“The programme moved me to tears. So many babies who are born with disabilities find it hard to find adoptive parents… no one wants them.

“So Pete and I have been to see a lawyer about adopting a baby from abroad.”

The process could take up to 18 months.

A source close to her said: “She’s not an emotional person, but was traumatised by what she saw. It made her determined.”

Katie’s oldest son, Harvey, is also physically and mentally disabled: the six year old is partially blind and autistic. The couple have two other children, Junior, three, and Princess Tiamii, one.
