Melinda Messenger: Jordan is not a murderer

TV presenter sticks up for glamour model Katie Price

Melinda Messenger presents Live From Studio Five

Melinda Messenger is fed up of the way Jordan has been portrayed in the tabloids.

The glamour model, real name Katie Price, has been criticised for moving on so soon after her split from Peter Andre, 36.

'I feel she's been vilified,' says Melinda. ‘What has she actually done that's so awful apart from go out and have a good time?

‘You could condemn her for doing that if she was neglecting her kids, but she's not... she shouldn't be treated like this. She's not murdered anybody.'

Melinda, 38, thinks Jordan, 31, and Pete should be allowed to deal with their separation in private.

‘It's quite childish that everyone's taking sides - all this Team Pete, Team Kate stuff,' she adds.

‘I like Peter - he's a great guy - but let's allow them both to get on with their lives and make a new relationship for the sake of their kids.'
