Katie Price has revealed that her ill-fated marriage to Kieran Hayler has finally come to an official end, as they signed divorce papers three years after their split.

The 42-year-old glamour model has revealed to The Sun that she and Kieran, 33, became officially divorced just days ago, paving the way for her to make Carl Woods, 31, husband number four.

She told the publication: ‘Finally, we’ve signed the divorce papers. I’m so happy that I’m free from that marriage. The only good thing that came out of it was my children.

‘I can now continue my life with all the badness behind me. All I can do is wish him luck. I can’t wait to continue my life with Carl.’

Katie and her ex-husband separated in March 2018 after five years of marriage and had been waiting two years for a divorce.

While Katie is hoping to tie the knot with car dealer Carl, 31, when he pops the question, Kieran is now engaged to his fiancée Michelle Penticost.

A source revealed that the final papers will be filed this week, meaning that Katie will again be single heading into the New Year.   

An insider told The Sun: ‘The final fees have been paid and the paperwork has all been signed off.

‘She was hoping to be single for Christmas, but allowing for delays over the festive season, she should be free and single by New Year’s Eve.’

A representative for Katie confirmed that she is waiting for the final decree in a statement.

It is believed that Carl spent £10,000 on an engagement ring for Katie in October and plans to ask her eldest son Junior, 15, for his permission to marry her.

It comes as Katie and Carl spoke to new! magazine about their relationship ahead of the festive period.

Katie admitted she feels like she has put on weight in recent months after having to use a wheelchair when she broke her feet in a freak accident.

However Carl declared that he ‘fancies her even more now!’.

The mother of five also opened up about how she is still in contact with a doctor from the priory, who she speaks to every week. 

She said: ‘I speak to the doctor each week from the priory. Not because there are any problems; just because I’m still learning to deal with what’s going to happen to my mum…’

Katie’s mother Amy was diagnosed with terminal lung condition idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in 2017.
