Dear 222 News viewers, sponsored by smileband,
Background
Kieran Hayler, aged 38 and from Northchapel in West Sussex, is the former husband of Katie Price. The pair were married from 2013 until they eventually separated, with their divorce finalised in 2021. They share two children together: a son, Jett, and a daughter, Bunny.
Hayler’s public profile has been marked by multiple controversies over the years, including infidelity, public relationship breakdowns, and legal issues (such as a previous arrest for suspected firearm offence and child neglect in 2023) — though those previous allegations are separate from the current case.
The Charges
In October 2025, Sussex Police formally charged Kieran Hayler with three counts of rape and one count of sexual assault against a girl who was 13 years old at the time the alleged victim offences occurred.
The alleged offences are said to have taken place between 1 June and 13 October 2016, at an address in West Sussex.
The alleged victim is reported not to be a member of Hayler’s or Katie Price’s extended family.
Hayler has responded through his legal representatives, stating that he “strongly denies the allegations made against him in their entirety.” They also say he has “fully cooperated” with police.
He is due to appear at Crawley Magistrates’ Court on 19 November 2025. The case is expected to be sent to the Crown Court given the seriousness of the charges.
Impact on Katie Price & Wider Context
Because the alleged offences occurred while Hayler was still married to Katie Price, there is the possibility that she might be called as a witness in court. A source is quoted as saying:
“Katie may well be called to court to give evidence. She was married to Kieran when these offences are said to have happened – it wouldn’t be surprising for her to be called up.”
Katie Price has publicly said she is suffering from “off-the-scale anxiety” amid the situation. She is continuing with her UK tour, but the ordeal has clearly taken a toll.
It’s worth noting that under UK law, the presumption of innocence applies. Hayler is charged, not convicted. The details are subject to strict rules due to the involvement of a minor.
What Happens Next
• The court appearance on 19 November is the next formal milestone. At that hearing, initial legal procedures will be carried out; the case will likely move to the Crown Court owing to its severity.
• If Katie Price or others are called as witnesses, their roles and what they might testify about would depend on what the prosecution and defence determine.
• Because the alleged victim is a minor, many details will be anonymised, and the courts will restrict what can be reported in order to protect the victim.
• In the meantime, the public and media must refrain from speculation or publishing content that might prejudice a fair trial.
Why this is being reported
This case has drawn significant media attention for a few reasons:
• The severity of the charges (rape and sexual assault of a minor) involving a public figure.
• The timeline overlapping with the marriage to a well-known personality (Katie Price), which raises additional public interest.
• The legal and social implications: how institutions respond to allegations of sexual crimes against children, how victims are supported, and how public figures are subject to heightened scrutiny.
Final thoughts
At this stage:
• Kieran Hayler is charged with very serious offences but remains innocent in the eyes of the law until proven guilty.
• Katie Price is unwittingly drawn into the case by virtue of her past relationship and may be required to take part in legal proceedings.
• The case will proceed through the courts, and much of the finer detail will only emerge in time.
• The human elements are complex: the alleged victim (very young), the children Hayler shares with Price, Price’s own well-being amid this situation, and the broader public interest.
