Peter Andre has reportedly been texting his ex, Katie Price.

A source told Now magazine: “Katie was stunned when the first texts came through. But he was doing it out of raw emotion. He’s still saying, ‘Why did I split this family apart?’ as if he can’t believe it’s really happened.

“The texts will be a complete shock to his management, but he’s fed up. He’s sick of going through lawyers and being told what to do by everyone.”

They added: “Kate has always texted Pete. She doesn’t care what the lawyers say and doesn’t see the problem with it. Kate’s in contact with all of her exes and doesn’t want Pete to be an exception.

“She loves him and he still loves her. Pete’s had his fingers burned by walking out and has pangs of regret. It’s too late because they’ll be officially divorced in two weeks, but they’re both doing it with heavy hearts.”
