At Lewes Crown Court in East Sussex, a trial is underway for Kieran Hayler, ex-husband of Katie Price, who faces three counts of rape and one count of sexual assault against a teenage girl when she was 13 years old. The victim’s mother testified that she informed Katie Price about the allegations nearly a year after they occurred, but Price reportedly did not care much about her daughter's situation. Hayler denies the charges and accuses Price of framing him.
