We've seen the birth and death of Jordan, babies, books and more since she was 18

KATIE Price has shared a throwback shot of herself as an eighteen year old.

In the image the now 37-year-old can be seen pouting for the camera while looking completely natural – albeit rather sunburned.

The shot – captioned ‘omg 18 in this old throw bag’ - is a stark contrast to how Katie looks today – following surgery, three husbands and five children.

A lot has happened since the picture was taken and it’s hard to believe 18-year-old Katie could ever have imagined how her life would have turned out.

Here’s just some of the moments which have made a big impact on Katie's life and helped shaped her into the woman she is today.

Dwight Yorke and Harvey

Back in 2001 Katie was known as Jordan -  a glamour model at the top of her game who could date pretty much any footballer she fancied. At the time she fell for footy star Dwight Yorke – which led to her falling pregnant with Harvey.

Dwight initially denied he was Harvey’s dad and has only met him on a number of occasions. Katie was forced to bring up her son who has autism and Prader–Willi syndrome alone.  The challenge affected her life forever and she still continues to campaign for him to have the best life possible.

When Katie was pregnant with her son Harvey she had a very brief fling with Gareth Gates, who was just 17 and a virgin at the time.

The romance stayed with Katie for a long time and she later admitted the whole thing was “disgusting”.

She said: “When I look at it now, it’s gross, disgusting. “It’s terrible – I was still young, I was pregnant, I didn’t have the dad about and I still wanted to be loved.

“It was wrong when I look back. It was over in seconds!”

Speaking about her new look – having ditched her glamour appearance once and for all, she said: ‘I’m so glad I’ve got rid of my old boobs! It’s nice to be natural. I’ve finally got the body and boobs I want.’

She added: ‘I feel a lot happier with my figure now. I didn’t think I would.

“My biggest assets I used to have have disappeared, so now I’m flat-chested. I love having small boobs and being natural. I’m so flat-chested I don’t need a bra!”

It’s was the final nail in Jordan’s coffin.
