Jordan and dressage coach Andrew Gould get closer

Should Alex Reid be worried now that they're neighbours?

Katie Price's close relationship with Andrew Gould could threaten her marriage to Alex Reid

Katie Price prides herself on being a businesswoman and now she fancies the idea of investing in racehorses with dressage coach Andrew Gould.

Not only that, Now's learnt that she's moving home to be closer to the equestrian.

‘Katie bought a house near Horsham so she could be just a few miles away from Andrew's house in Billingshurst,' an insider tells Now.

‘Instead of her going to the stables he runs in Sussex, they'll share the stables on her new 52-acre property.

'She'll also have an annexe at the back of her property where Andrew can stay whenever he wants.'

Andrew, 30, is happily married to Polly - who Katie employs to sell her clothes on eBay - and there's no suggestion that anything improper has ever happened between him and Jordan.

But that never stopped ex Peter Andre from being jealous.

In a candid interview in January, he said: ‘I never asked Katie to stop riding, but I did ask her to move her horses or get a new instructor.

'Once, she was obsessed with a girl at my gym who she thought fancied me, so I stopped going to the gym for three months.

'But she wouldn't switch riding instructors.'

Since Peter's been gone, Andrew and Jordan have only got closer - literally.

So it's odd her new husband Alex, 35, who was desperate to move from his wife's old home with Peter, has agreed to the arrangement.

‘Alex doesn't have a say,' says our insider.

‘He reckons Andrew's his mate since he was on his stag do in June, but Katie wanted him there.

Andrew even joined them on their honeymoon in Egypt.

Alex has a habit of talking himself out of things he's bothered about.'

Andrew - who's said of Jordan: ‘There has never been or ever will be any romantic involvement' - has been described in a national broadsheet as one of the country's ‘leading dressage riders, blessed with an athletic frame and classic, chisel-jawed good looks'.

Our insider says: ‘He's always insisted there's nothing going on between himself and Jordan and that he hates the negative attention.

But he never shies away from being filmed on her ITV shows.

‘When they were filming the wedding for Katie And Alex: For Better, For Worse, a fellow guest asked him in front of the cameras if he was there to destroy another marriage.

'Andrew just laughed - not the reaction of someone bothered about his reputation.'

Jordan, who admits she hasn't been spending a great deal of time with Alex lately due to work commitments, says she plans to dedicate more time to horse riding at her new home.
