Katie Price’s ex Kieran Hayler beams in first sighting after 'arrest'

Katie Price’s ex-partner Kieran Hayler was grinning from ear to ear as he was seen for the first time since being reportedly arrested on suspicion of child neglect and possession of a firearm.

The former personal trainer, 36, was all smiles as he stuck a thumb up as he headed out of his West Sussex home on Sunday for an Easter outing.

Hayler, who wore a black T-shirt emblazoned with a banana, was accompanied by his partner Michelle Penticost, 41, and their baby son Apollo, 20 months, and her son Valentino, 12, from a previous relationship.

Hayler ventured out after he was reported he was taken in for questioning by officers after a ‘very dramatic’ incident at his home at around 4pm on April 7.

‘We later heard it involved a gun which was quite frightening,’ a neighbour told The Sun.

A spokesperson for Sussex Police told The Mirror: ‘A man has been arrested on suspicion of possession of a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence and child neglect.

​​‘He has been taken into custody for questioning.’

The force refused to issue further comment.

Hayler was married to glamour model Price, 44, and shares children nine-year-old Jett and eight-year-old Bunny with her.


It has previously been reported that Hayler had accused Price of ‘harassment’ and made a complaint to police.

Price was then taken to court after sending Hayler text messages about his new fiancée that broke a restraining order.

Hayler and Price first got together more than a decade ago and wed in the Bahamas in January 2013 just two months after meeting.


However, their relationship ended when it was revealed that Hayler had affairs with Price’s friends Jane Pountney and Chrissy Thomas.

Hayler received therapy for sex addiction and the couple worked on their relationship.

However, Price filed for divorce after discovering Hayler had allegedly been having another affair with the children’s nanny.

The nanny, Nikki Brown, denied the affair.

Sussex Police and reps for Kieran Hayler have been previously contacted for comment.
