Katie Price and Peter Andre are engaged in a war over words over their children.
The British glamour model is said to be furious with her estranged husband for flying to Cyprus and leaving her disabled son Harvey, six – who is from a previous relationship - with a nanny.
Katie – also known as Jordan - flew to the Maldives with the couple's children, Junior, three, and 23-month old Princess Tiaamii on Monday night (11.05.09) shortly after the news the couple had split after three and a half years of marriage was made public.
A friend of Katie's told Britain's Daily Mirror she had said to her: "Can you believe Peter's f***ing off, leaving Harvey home alone?
"He's just packed up his s**t and gone – he's acting like a complete k**b. "How dare he? If this is how it's going to be from now on then so be it."
Peter, 36, is said to be just as upset with Katie, 30, for taking his children with her, and for going to the Maldives, where they honeymooned.
A source said: "He's saddened by her choice of destination as it holds so many memories of happier days. He's gone to stay with his brothers in Cyprus. "Obviously he couldn't take Harvey out of his special needs school, so he left him with his carer and Katie's mother."
Meanwhile, the married man pictured with Katie on a drunken night out last week has denied there is anything romantic going on between them. Andrew Gould, 28, told Britain's The Sun newspaper: "I'm not interested in her at all that way. There's no reason for Pete to be jealous.
"The thing is, it is so innocent and it is so ridiculous. I don't know why he has that problem." Last night (13.05.09), Katie personally addressed fans about the separation by posting on her Twitter page.
She wrote: "Thank you for all your support. It means so much."
