'The partnership was born organically after Princess posted on Instagram about wearing the brand, it's naturally a great fit for both parties.' Katie and Pete, who divorced in 2009 after four years of marriage and share children Junior and Princess, have previously fallen out about their daughter's appearance. Throughout the years, fans have criticised mum-of-five Katie for allowing her eldest daughter to wear a full face of makeup in glamorous photos shared to Instagram . Despite Junior and Princess growing up in the limelight after their parents fell in love filming ITV's I'm A Celeb, Pete has always tried to shield them from the public eye. At a friend's suggestion, the teenager had professional photographs taken and was quickly snapped up by a modelling agency who landed her a Page 3 slot in The Sun newspaper the following year, sparking the creation of her glamour model alter ego, Jordan. Last week she to Instagram and hinted she may follow in her famous father's footsteps and dip her toe into the world of music during a Q&A with fans Peter was catapulted to fame with his single Mysterious Girl in 1996 (pictured) While son and Princess' older brother Junior, 19, released his own debut single in 2022 (pictured) Katie revealed she was glad that she wasn't exposed to social media at the time as she had 'no idea what Botox was or fillers ', otherwise she may have started her tweaks and enhancements at an even earlier age. Since then she has undergone a £130,000-plus transformation, with the celebrity has become almost unrecognisable from when she first rose to fame in the late Nineties. He banned Princess from having a public Instagram profile or using her phone in her room until she was 14 and he's been explicitly clear when it comes to romance. Katie started modelling at the age of 17 as a fresh-faced natural beauty.

Reach out with news or updates to anna.houlahan@austcommunitymedia.com.auNEWARK, N.J. — Thirty-four days. In case anyone asks how long it takes to destroy a Stanley Cup contender, there’s your answer. It was 34 days ago that the New York Rangers beat the host Vancouver Canucks to improve to 12-4-1. Sure, they were flawed. Sure, they were relying on goaltending and special teams a bit too much. But they were still a contender. Advertisement A little over a month later, the visitors’ room at Prudential Center felt more funereal than it did after the Game 7 loss here in 2023, when the Rangers were shut out and bounced from the first round of the playoffs after a good season. “We gotta show more heart,” Vincent Trocheck said after Monday’s shutout, a 5-0 shelling from the Devils in which the Rangers mustered 12 shots on goal, gave up three power-play goals and scratched Chris Kreider , the closest thing this organization has to a Mr. Ranger. It’s a shocking thing to hear a player say about his team at any point in the season. It somehow feels more shocking given how the past month has gone. The Rangers hit the three-day holiday break losers of 14 of their past 18, and they’ve been uncompetitive in about six of them. “I think of the times we’ve lost by multiple goals, left our goalies out to dry,” Trocheck said. So does everyone else. Even the flawed 12-4-1 team played with some fire in the belly, hungry for goals on a talented team even if many of the players weren’t quite so committed to defending. Now the goals have dried up and the commitment to, well, anything, is just gone. The Rangers came into this one still leading the league on the penalty kill, so they went out and gave up three PPGs on four opportunities, two of them off too-many-men penalties in the second period. The Rangers’ once-vaunted power play went 0-for-4 to drop to 6-for-49 since early November. It’s all gone. Every last bit of it. Good play, fire, heart, dignity, togetherness — poof. In just over a month, the Rangers have become a team that’s easy to play against, even after a feisty first period in which Trocheck and Sam Carrick fought. They’re pushovers. And that’s all without addressing the Kreider situation. Watching him play Sunday, it sure looked like Kreider’s back, which caused him to miss three games back when general manager Chris Drury threw his name onto the NHL GMs group chat — you know, all the way back at Thanksgiving — is bothering him more than he or the Rangers are letting on. He was completely out of sorts, physically and mentally, in that loss to the Carolina Hurricanes. Advertisement But the Rangers said this was a coach’s decision, not injury-related. Whether that means Kreider is the next veteran out the door when the holiday roster freeze is lifted Friday remains to be seen. What doesn’t remain to be seen is how yet another long-serving Ranger is no longer an essential member of the team’s fraying core. “We need more,” coach Peter Laviolette said. “We’re not playing a brand of hockey we need to play in order to be successful, and he’s a guy we count on to help deliver that.” Kreider isn’t alone, of course. Mika Zibanejad went without a point for a seventh straight game and got 9:44 of five-on-five ice time, or just 10 seconds more than Adam Edström . Filip Chytil has three points in 11 games since he returned from a two-week absence. Alexis Lafrenière has one point in eight games and turned away from a scrum in the second period when you maybe wanted to see him engage more and show he wants to be part of the solution going forward. The next three days may bring some quiet, but it won’t last long. Laviolette’s job has seemed secure despite the month-long free fall, but that has to change at some point — each game seems to bring another way in which Laviolette’s players look like they’ve never played a game together. Monday’s was the pair of too-many-men penalties 7:42 apart, both of which turned into Devils power-play goals. Drury can shoulder plenty of the responsibility, too. It was his desire to break up the band barely 20 games into the season that kicked all this off. The players’ continued lack of fire and desire is surely front and center, too, as we’ve learned a bit too much about their collective mental state. But two things can be true: The Rangers’ players deserve to have their desire questioned, and the Rangers’ brass went about this hunger for change in a decidedly wrong way. Advertisement If it was the right move to throw Jacob Trouba ’s and Kreider’s names out there, wouldn’t they be playing better by now? And how can you keep altering the roster when the players you want to move are playing this poorly? Zibanejad needs a reset. Adam Fox played 26:09 and had three shots on goal, looking more like himself than he has for weeks, but he’s still not doing enough — Bobby Orr might not be able to light a fire under this offense. Trocheck, Will Cuylle , Ryan Lindgren , Braden Schneider — players who have had plenty of heart over their Ranger runs — have run out of gas lately. Artemi Panarin got in a wrestling match with Timo Meier in the first period and stepped in when Lafrenière tussled with Jonathan Kovacevic and said a “reload” is necessary for this group. “It feels like we have extra weight in our skates right now,” Panarin said. “I can’t say no one’s not trying, it’s just like everything feels much harder than (for) other teams.” There’s no path to it getting any easier. After the break, the Rangers face the Tampa Bay Lightning and Florida Panthers on the road, host the Boston Bruins , play the Washington Capitals on the road, come back home for the Dallas Stars and Devils, then head back out to face the Vegas Golden Knights and Colorado Avalanche . More games like Monday’s in the next month and Long Island native James Hagens, the projected No. 1 pick, suddenly could be on the Rangers’ radar. Thirty-four days. Way back then, Ranger players and their coach and their fans were talking about whether the team could get over the hump finally and reach a Stanley Cup Final. Now everyone’s wondering who gets moved next and how many spins you get on Tankathon to see if they can win the draft lottery. Never has an NHL team fallen this far this fast. And after the break, there’s still such a long way to go. (Top photo: Ed Mulholland / USA Today)
