Opening up about her relationship with her mum, Katie, who went onto a have a string of failed marriages and relationships post Pete, Princess says: "My mum, obviously being heartbroken, didn't deal with that in the best way, she went through a very, very dark time, which is understandable.

"Which is hard for me because I was around adulty things that kids should never see and I think as well, when we needed our mum there, she wasn't emotionally able to be there because she had so much of her own problems going on."

She also reveals she had a counsellor, sharing: "I did have a counsellor, I do still see her every now and then.

"But I don't feel like I can really talk, so I just write everything down in my notes."

One of Katie's rockiest relationships was with ex-husband and former stripper, Kieran Hayler. The couple, who share kids, Jett and Bunny, wed in 2013 before calling it quits amid infidelity claims.

Princess explained how "everything kind of went downhill" following the divorce as she and her siblings got "really close to him and loved him".

She concluded: "I wouldn't say I'm fully, fully recovered from it but mum is such a different person and if you put her now to back then, she's genuinely really fixed herself."

While Princess is close with her dad, she admitted she would never speak to him about her troubles as she has "always grown up knowing "my mum and dad don't like each other".

However, she does confide in Pete about the awful messages she's been receiving online with one vile troll asking if she's "finally legal now".

With tears in his eyes as he reads one of the messages, Pete tells the teen she's still his "baby" as he pleads with her to make her social media private.

Responding, Princess says she has to keep her profile public because it's her job and how she makes money. Conceding she knows where he dad is "coming from", she states: "If no-one reads my posts, it's not going to work."
