Celebrity Reality Show Crosses the Pond

E! Entertainment Television acquired the rights to Great Britain’s reality-TV sensation, Katie and Peter, where viewers share in the private lives of supermodel Katie Price and pop singer Peter Andre.
Airing exclusively on E!, Katie and Peter will include three separate installments of the couple's TV franchise: When Jordan Met Peter, Jordan and Peter: Laid Bare and Marriage and Mayhem.
Price and Andre strive to balance their enormous careers with family life and meet the needs of their growing children, all while maintaining a loving and respectful marriage.
Beginning April 21, viewers can tune in to see the couple that is the talk of Great Britain in an up-close-and-personal and often humorous journey that reveals the private people behind the very public personas.
For nearly a decade, Price (also known as Jordan) and Andre have each been making headlines -- she as Britain’s cover girl of the decade, and he as a popular singer and performer with 11 top-10 hits to his credit.
However, when the two came together and fell in love on British television series I'm a Celebrity: Get Me Out of Here!, they became a celebrity couple everyone wanted to know about.
Magazines and newspapers throughout the United Kingdom featured the pair on covers week after week, and public curiosity about the duo continues to grow. Now, Katie and Peter are spearheading their own British invasion that will open a whole new window into celebrity lifestyle and bridge the gap between U.S. and U.K. stargazing like never before.
