Katie Price shares cryptic Instagram post hours after ex-husband Kieran arrested

Celebrity Katie Price has puzzled fans by sharing a cryptic social media post hours after her ex-husband Kieran Hayler was arrested on suspicion of child neglect and possession of a firearm.

Price - who has two children with Kieran - shared the post on her Instagram but did not reference her ex within it.

Hayler, who used to work as a stripper, was arrested on Good Friday on suspicion of child neglect and suspicion of possessing a firearm with intent to cause fear or violence.

A spokesperson for Sussex Police told the Mirror :" A man has been arrested on suspicion of possession of a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence and child neglect.

"He has been taken into custody for questioning. We will not be commenting further."

A source who knows Kieran has informed the Mirror that he was assisting police with their enquiries.

Katie, 44, has not commented directly on his arrest but posted a quote on her Instagram Stories on Sunday morning.

The quote read: "A person's true colors will always show within time. You may be fooled for the moment, but be patient and see what happens."

It's believed that officers from the force rushed to Kieran's home at around 4pm.

Kieran, 36, shares two children with his former wife, Katie as well as a son with his partner Michelle Penticost and lives with Michelle's son, 12, from a former relationship.

A neighbour of Kieran and Michelle's told The Sun : "It was very dramatic, a police van and car suddenly turned up on the driveway of their home."

However, it is not clear whether Kieran's children or Michelle were at home at the time of his arrest.

The news of Kieran's arrest comes hours after he shared two posts about female narcissists on his Instagram page after his former wife posted about ex-partners.

Katie shared a video on her Stories which shared the "traits" of a narcissist alongside a voiceover which said: "When a narcissist says 'my ex was crazy'".

Although her post wasn't directed at anybody in particular, Kieran appeared to have taken it to heart and took to his own page to indirectly respond.

The pair had been involved in a messy falling out since they decided to split, with Katie claiming he had cheated on her on several occasions.

Following a tumultuous relationship, they called it quits in 2018 but their divorce took a long three years to be finalised.

Since their split, Katie has become engaged to Love Island star Carl Woods.
