Peter Andre has responded to allegations that he had an affair with his manager Claire Powell when he was still with Katie Price.

The glamour model said in a recent interview with Now magazine that she felt like she was in a relationship with “two people” during her marriage to the popstar.

“It was like Pete was married to two women, Claire and me. And it just suffocated me,” she said. “If I’m going to blame anyone for the end of my relationship with Pete, I’d have to lay some of the blame with Claire.”

Responding to the Price’s comments, Andre said: “I am making this statement to put the record straight regarding the outrageous claims and lies that have been put into the public domain by my ex-wife about my relationship with my manager Claire Powell.

“I wish to make it perfectly clear for the record that my manager Claire Powell, who I have known for the past 16 years, is my manager and a personal friend. She has never betrayed me or done anything other than support me, which is more than can be said for my ex-wife.

“I have said once before that if anybody slanders my name I will not hesitate in taking legal action and that is exactly what both Claire and I will do.”

Price is rumoured to have accused Andre of sleeping with Powell during a recent appearance on The Graham Norton Show.
