I'm free! Alex Reid says he is enjoying being with 'a real lady' (Chantelle Houghton) following his split from Katie Price


Alex Reid admits that his ex Katie Price's revelation last week that she never really loved him was like 'a knife to the heart.'

But despite being hurt by his estranged wife's churlish words, the cage fighter and reality star insists he has moved on, and is enjoying his new romance with Chantelle Houghton.

And in a thinly-veiled dig at Price, Alex, 35, says his favourite thing about the Celebrity Big Brother winner is that she is 'a real lady.'


In an interview with this week's new! magazine, Alex says: 'The great thing about her is that she’s so feminine, a real lady.

He quips: 'It’s nice to be with someone who’s a real lady - is that a little dig?'

'She really is just so sweet, so girly. I’m cheeky. I’m like a little kid and I play around, [I make] little bum jokes. I tone that down a bit. She’s not a prude, she’ll find it funny, but I want to be a gentleman.'

On the rebound: Alex and Chantelle hit it off in April shortly after her split from Rav Wilding


The new couple hit it off when they sat together on a flight to Northern Ireland for the Fate Awards in April.

Reid admits he got to know Chantelle through her ex Rav Wilding, an acquaintance of his.

But following her split from the Crimewatch presenter, she began flirting with Alex at the Fate Awards ceremony and they shared a kiss.

Reid says they are taking things slow and joke that they are both on the rebound.

He also tells the magazine that he discouraged by the knowledge that their relationship may be viewed as a 'showmance.'

'What put me off was that it was going to be considered that sort of stuff. And I thought, "'Screw that. I'm going to live my life."'

And while he is moving on with Chantelle, 27, Alex says Katie still plays on his mind.

'She’ll always have a special place in my heart. I would have given my life for her. I am a romantic for better or for worse, so yeah, that hurts.

'I wish it had worked out. It’s sad because I was fighting the whole way to save it. It wasn’t my choice [to split].'

Reid says that Katie's revelation in an OK magazine interview last week that she never truly loved her him was 'like a knife to the heart. She says we're still friends, but a friend wouldn't say something like that.'

He adds: 'I got my first big TV show a week before I met Katie. Being with her was brilliant. It opened so many doors. It got me put on the map, even though I’d been working for 20-plus years in showbiz.

'But she also closed many doors. My credibility as an athlete, as a serious actor. I married into that. And that was one thing I was worried about with Chantelle. [But] she’s actually a lovely girl.'

By JODY THOMPSON


Not chukka-d yet: Leandro Penna puckers up to Katie Price as they practice their polo skills in Berkshire yesterday


They still can't actually speak each other's language - but Katie Price and Leandro Penna let their horsemanship do the talking yesterday.

The loved-up pair were showing off their polo skills on the pitch in Berkshire - and the 33-year-old model turned businesswoman seemed impressed by her toyboy's ways with a mallet.

In fact, onlookers said that Leandro, 26, was a natural and looked even better riding than trained horsewoman Katie.

Perhaps he'd had some sneaky lessons before in his home country of Argentina, where their horsemen are famed for their polo skills.

Meanwhile, Alex Reid, 35, still has some kind words for his soon-to-be ex wife Katie.

Talking in this week's issue of New! magazine, the cagefighter said: 'She’ll always have a special place in my heart. I would have given my life for her.

'I am a romantic for better or for worse, so yeah, that hurts. I wish it had worked out. It’s sad because I was fighting the whole way to save it. It wasn’t my choice [to split].'

However, he said of his new girlfriend, Big Brother winner Chantelle Houghton, 27, that she's a 'real lady'.

And perhaps unsurprisingly, he confirmed that being with Katie had given him a taste for being in the public eye.

He said: 'I got my first big TV show a week before I met Katie. Being with her was brilliant. It opened so many doors. It got me put on the map, even though I’d been working for 20-plus years in showbiz.'

"I got it off him the first night. I'd been looking at pictures of him and texting him before that, though. Then I met Alex, slept with him and have stayed with him since. How could I resist the power of Alex?,” News.com.au quoted her as saying in her autobiography, ‘You Only Live Once.’


Jordan is now planning to start a family with Alex."All Alex wants is to be good at what he does, have a family and settle down. I've always said I want a big family. I can be myself 100 per cent with Alex,” she said.


Katie, who is stuck in a severe courts battle with ex Peter Andre, is so determined to make her current relationship work, she is treating it differently to her previous romances in a bid to keep their union equal.

"I said to Alex, forget my house, we should buy a house together. I'm going to downsize so we can both afford it. Whatever we earn together will go in one pot and everything will be paid out of that. I've never done that with a guy. Alex is perfect in every way,” she concluded.

Katie Price Demanding sex seven times a day

Model Katie Price, who is desperately struggling to conceive, has been demanding sex seven times a day from cage-fighter husband Alex Reid.

Alex, 34, has admitted that the pair may have some news soon after photos of them emerged visiting a fertility clinic last week.

"We've seen the pictures of me and Katie 'visiting a clinic' but it is not something I want to talk about. When we have news I will let you all know!," dailystar.co.uk quoted Reid as saying.

Katie is so keen to have a baby that she has stuck up a chart in the couple's bedroom to show when she is ovulating.

"She has gone baby crazy and won't stop till she's pregnant. It's taking over her life. The chart states exactly when Katie is 'ripe' as Alex calls it and when that happens they are at it six or seven times," a source said.

Katie has had several miscarriages in the past, but she is now desperate to be pregnant again.

"Alex says it's got to the point where there's no feeling involved and it's just completely robotic. Katie wants to be pregnant by the time they have their wedding blessing in August," the source added.

Life Too Busy For Sex : Alex Reid

The couple - who married in a surprise low-key ceremony in Las Vegas last month - are trying for a baby but the cage fighter admits they are unable to practise as much as he would like.

He said: "Someone recently said Katie and I are having sex three times a day to get pregnant. Three times a day? I wish! We do have to work, you know! I like to keep things like that private but some days we don't even do it at all.

"Getting pregnant is on our to-do list, but for now we're just enjoying each other. When it does happen, I'll be the happiest man on earth and will shout it from the rooftops."

Getting pregnant is on our to-do list, but for now we're just enjoying each other. When it does happen, I'll be the happiest man on earth and will shout it from the rooftops.

Despite insisting they are exercising restraint with their sex life, Alex says he is so much in love with 31-year-old Katie - who has three children, Harvey, seven, Junior, four, and two-year-old Princess Tiaamii from previous relationships - that he finds it hard not to show her affection.

Writing in his column for Britain's Star magazine, he added: "The other day, we did play a game where we weren't allowed to show each other affection for an hour - I gave up after 13 minutes and grabbed her for a kiss."

Alex, 34, also laughed off reports that he and Katie have had a series of furious rows since getting married.

He said: "There have been stories that Kate and I are fighting already and that our honeymoon period is over. That's nonsense - we haven't had a single argument since we got married.

"There's nothing about her that annoys me and she says the same about me. She doesn't even mind me leaving the toilet seat up or farting and burping!"

Alex Reid feels he`s Katie Price`s sex slave

Kate Price’s lover Alex Reid has reportedly told friends that he feels under the thumb, and is exhausted after marathon romps with the British celebrity.

According to reports, the cage fighter moaned to pals that he is a “sex slave” kept under lock and key in Jordan’s mansion, reports The Daily Star.

A pal said, “He’s meant to be the hardened cage-fighting champion, but she has left him exhausted with her demands. He feels like a sex slave, while his mates are all moaning that he never returns their calls.”

The pal added, “He is genuine about Kate, but it gets too much for him sometimes. Alex is saying that it will get better after the divorce.”
