Jordan and Peter AndreA friend of Jordan and Peter Andre’s has revealed that Jordan was pregnant with her third child but had a miscarriage on Friday.

Jordan, real name Katie Price, had sparked rumours recently after patting her stomach while saying she wanted to have six children and was apparently “over the moon” about being pregnant again.

But she was rushed to hospital on Friday after suffering stomach pains, only to find that she had miscarried.

A friend of the couple is quoted in the Sun as saying: “It’s impossible to describe how upset they both are.”

“They wanted to keep the whole thing secret and hoped no one would find out.”

“She was only a few weeks into the pregnancy - but hadn’t had her three-month scan, so told only a handful of people.”

Katie already has two sons, Harvey, aged four and Junior, nearly two, but has been previously quoted as saying that she would “love a little girl. I’d have to call her Pink or Princess, because she’d be my princess”.
