Cage fighter Alex Reid is said to be convinced that Katie Price is about to dump him and reportedly told his ex-girlfriend that she even made up the recent story about him cross dressing.

The Sun reports that Alex told his ex, Danielle Sims: “Katie’s stitching me up. She told the papers I’m a cross-dresser to make me look like a freak.

“I’m sure she did it so that when she dumps me people won’t blame her.

“We’ve been arguing a lot and I’m sure she’s about to dump me. She’s had enough of me and is already getting in the cheap shots.

“I didn’t realise she could be so ruthless. I’m just a fly in her trap.”

A pal said: “Alex still calls and texts Danielle a lot, and has been confiding in her about Katie and their relationship.

“It sounds like he didn’t appreciate what he was getting into when he got together with Katie.”
