While discussing Katie's new documentary, Nothing To Hide, and her headline-making marriage to Lee Andrews, Jo and her podcast co-host Zoe Ball reflected on their previous encounters with the former glamour model.Speaking to Zoe on their Dig It podcast, Jo recalled a time when she was due to interview Katie and her then-husband Peter on BBC Radio 1."We'd booked her to come on to the Radio 1 show and it was live," she said. "It was supposed to be her and Peter coming on the show and I kept advertising it, I was like, 'Katie Price and Peter Andre, they're going to be here soon'."And in the end, we just ran out of show, like they didn't turn up."The presenter said the couple eventually arrived at the studio just five minutes before the programme was due to end, leaving no time for a chat.Recalling the pair's reactions, the presenter claimed there was "a real contrast" between them."Peter was absolutely mortified, he couldn't have been more apologetic," she said. "He was like, 'I am so sorry, things happened, we should've been here'."She didn't give a flying monkeys, she didn't care, she was like yeah whatever. And she was there but too late for the show, but it was a real contrast between the two of them, she was absolutely unapologetic."At the time of Jo's encounter with the couple, who share children Junior, 21, and Princess, 19, they were starring in their reality series Katie and Peter.A year later, they announced their separation after four years of marriage, having first found love on I'm A Celebrity...
