Katie Price (born May 22, 1978), born Katie Infield, and better known as Jordan, is a British glamour model, most famous for her large, surgically enhanced breasts and the reports of her personal life in British tabloid newspapers.
She was born in Brighton. When she was four, her father left home. After a while her mother, Amy, remarried to Paul Price, and Jordan changed her name to Katie Price. An excellent swimmer, gymnast, and horsewoman, she took up glamour modelling as a page 3 girl in the tabloid newspapers.
Jordan had a well-publicised relationship with the pop singer Dane Bowers, of the boy band Another Level, but they ended their relationship while she was pregnant by him, and she had an abortion.
In the June 7, 2001 British General Election, Jordan ran as a candidate in Manchester, England (using her real name) under a slogan of For a Bigger and Betta Future. As a part of her election campaign - which was intended to bring a little fun into a dull election - she promised free breast implants, increases on nudist beaches, and a ban on parking tickets. In the end, Jordan won 713 votes or 1.8% of the vote.
