Katie Price: Trauma and Me air date after it was postponed by Channel 4 over Queen's death

Katie Price has confirmed her Channel 4 documentary will air next week after it was postponed due to the Queen’s death.

The former glamour model, 44, was due to appear in a film exploring her struggle with trauma, titled Katie Price: Trauma and Me, on September 8.

But as it coincided with the day the Queen died, it was decided the release should be pushed back to a later date.

Last month Katie told her 2.6 million Instagram followers: "My film on @channel4 this evening is being moved to a later date due to the Queen's illness. My thoughts and prayers are with the Royal Family at this time."

But on Monday she shared a new date for the documentary had now been set - and viewers can tune in on October 10 at 10pm.

Taking to Instagram again, the 44-year-old revealed the new date will now by on World Mental Health Day.

The mum-of-five wrote: “Trauma and Me will air on World Mental Health Day (10 th October) on @channel4 at 10pm – thank you for all your support.”

Her celebrity pals and fans were quick to show their support for the star, who has had a turbulent past few years to say the least.

Ex Big Brother star Aisleyne Horgan Wallace wrote: “So strong love you girl.”

While Love Islander turned activist Malin Andersson and Katie’s sister Sophie posted love heart emojis.

A fan commented: “Oh I have been looking for when this will come on, be proud of yourself Katie sending love and healing.”

“Look forward to this. You’ve been on such a journey,” another said.

In the programme, Katie is set to talk about her mad year of drink and drugs, which saw her crash her car near her Sussex home and nearly get sent to jail.

She recently revealed she spent time in mental health facility The Priory, the London clinic where troubled celebs often go to recuperate.

Things were so bad when Katie got behind the wheel of her Range Rover that day that she has admitted she “could have killed someone”.

Despite it being her sixth driving conviction in 10 years, a judge banned her from driving for two years. She was also handed a 16-week suspended jail sentence and told she must do 100 hours of unpaid community service.

Katie’s mum, Amy, also speaks emotionally about her worries for her daughter alongside her stepdad, Paul, who speaks for the first time about his concern for Katie.

Katie is currently having weekly therapy sessions and, as she continues her recovery programme, shares what causes her mental health to deteriorate and asks how she can stop herself from spiralling out of control again.

She said: “I owe it to myself and my children to get better and never allow myself to go into such a dark place again.”

In the unflinching film, Katie also meets others who have experienced PTSD as they share their personal experiences with her.

Speaking to ITV ’s Good Morning Britain earlier this year, Katie shared “traumatic” events had led to the car crash - and that she wasn’t usually a big drinker.

Hinting there was a lot more to what happened than people know about yet, she said: “The events leading up to it were very traumatic. I’m seeing a therapist every week, something I will do for the rest of my life.”

She added: “There are reasons why I got in that car, my mental state. I feel ashamed about it. I just think that people shouldn’t judge.”
