Katie Piper makes emotional parenting confession
On Sunday (March 29) Katie took to her Instagram and shared an emotional video, revealing she had been crying after daughter Belle left the UK for a school trip abroad.
“I have said goodbye to Belle today, she has gone off on a ski trip. I’ve seen so many people posting in the same boat and I never thought I would be this mum, but I’m this mum and worse,” she said.
The TV star went on: “I found it really hard. She’s only just turned 12 like a couple of days ago. This is the first time she’s been on an aeroplane without me. This is the first time she’s been abroad without me, on a holiday without me and she’s gone skiing, we don’t do that.
“I’ve never skied anyway, I’ve never even packed for a ski trip. and she’s never been skiing. So I’ve got to be honest my heart broke a little bit. I didn’t say that to her though.”
