Katie Price is reportedly hoping her new man will be her lucky charm when it comes to getting her career back on track.

The former glamour model, 45, and Married At First Sight star John Joe 'JJ' Slater, 31, finally went public with their romance last month, following Katie's split from former Love Island contestant Carl Woods last year.

Katie - who is set to appear in court later today after being charged with alleged driving offences - apparently now sees her new relationship as just the beginning of her rebrand, with the mum-of-five set to be launching a career comeback and "make some money and restore her status".

The two-time I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! star - who was declared bankrupt in November 2019 - was once worth a whopping £45million at the peak of her fame, but has seen her fortune dwindle over recent years and now makes the majority of her income on adults-only site OnlyFans.

However, while in the throes of her new relationship with JJ, Katie is now reportedly "hell-bent on turning her career around" - with JJ helping her rebuild her empire. "She’s got lots of ideas in the pipeline," a source close to Katie said when discussing the star's plans for the future.

The insider continued: "She thinks a fashion business, with JJ’s input, would be great. And, seeing as JJ was such a hit with MAFS viewers, a reality show with them both would be great, too. Friends have warned her not to jump the gun, but she’s said she can even see a show about them planning their wedding!"

Speaking to Closer magazine, the source also claimed Katie is considering documenting her friendship with former Geordie Shore star Chloe Ferry for a behind-the-scenes TV show. If the pitch is snubbed by the likes of ITV and Channel 4, Katie will set up her own streaming channel and broadcast it herself, the insider added to the publication.

Katie hard-launched her relationship with JJ on Instagram last month, sharing a snap of herself and the reality TV star and telling her followers: "They say things happen for a reason , the unexpected happened . Fate . Ticks every box . @johnjoeslater you have proved to me you are a real gentleman and completely except [sic] me for me."

JJ commented on his new girlfriend's post, posting a heart emoji and writing: "Fate... thank you so much for being you." While many fans and famous friends congratulated the two stars on their new relationship, many took issue with Katie's latest romance following her recent split from on-off fiance Carl Woods.

One Instagram user warned Katie: "Come on Katie ... surely you're old enough to know he's just been on a reality show he's there with you for the headlines and to boost his fame." Another said: "You literally say this about every fella." A third wrote: "History will repeat itself, they'll be engaged in 3 months etc etc.." A fourth fan begged: "Katie every single time come onnnn. You should know better. These lads are just there for the headlines."
