Katie's last post on her social media account showed her in a snap taken by her taken by her fiancé Carl Woods, 32, along with Katie's children Jett, eight, and Bunny, seven.

'Family time' she captioned the snap.

Her fiancé Carl Woods shared a photo on his Instagram with the former glamour model and two of her children with the caption "Sunday Funday".

Over the weekend Katie and ex-husband Peter Andre had been celebrating the news that their son Junior had just signed a recording contract.

The 16-year-old announced on Instagram that he has inked an agreement with Columbia Records, firing the starting pistol on his music career.

In his social media post, Junior revealed he entered the studio six months ago to begin work on a "massive project", which has led to his new deal.

He showed off his vocals publicly alongside Peter in July at the Fantasia festival, where he performed with his father on stage.
