Ulrika Jonsson has slammed Katie Price for moaning about not being able to see her kids, pointing out that she is too often on holiday herself to have time to see her children.
Reality TV star Katie, 44, has been bemoaning that she is being cut out of the lives of her children, Jett and Bunny, who she shares with ex Kieran Hayler.
The former glamour model has said that "recent events" in her life has meant that she has "limited access" to her youngest children, which is something that Kieran has strenuously denied.
Writing in The Sun, Ulrika has ripped into Katie for sharing her despair about not seeing her children and told her that she needs to be a "good mum".
Mum-of-four Ulrika wrote: "[Katie] Price says kids need their mum.
"No, Katie. Kids don’t need their mum or their dad. They need a good mum and a good dad."
She continued: "What really matters is the quality of the parent.
"A bad mum or dad is likely to do more damage than good."
Ulrika then gave a damning blow to Katie, concluding: "Who knows the truth behind the Price-Hayler story. But gripes about limited access sound a little strange coming from a mum who heads off on seemingly endless holidays."
Katie makes the claim about access in a programme, titled Katie Price : Trauma And Me, which comes out on Channel 4 later this month.
“The hardest thing I’ve had to deal with in the recent months is having limited access to some of my kids,” said the reality TV star.
She added: “Recent events have meant I’m seeing my youngest children less and the relationship between me and their father has broken down.
“It’s not good for my mental health and it’s certainly not good for their mental health. They should be having their mum in their life. At the moment I’m stuck in this rut with Jett and Bunny and it is frustrating for me.
“You know, seven months, how has it even got to this? It’s heart-breaking and I just wish it wasn’t like this. All I can do is hope that this won’t be forever.”
A representative for Kieran has said: "This is categorically untrue."
“Kieran's focus remains on the children's best interest and in maintaining the children's best interests and safety at all times,” they told The Sun.
