KATIE Price is on course to marry boyfriend JJ Slater as things continue to go from strength to strength.
The 46-year-old has been given the ultimate seal of approval – from her family – which is the clearest sign yet that this romance could last.
Insiders say that hopeless romantic Katie is hoping he really is the one and thinks recent events have really sealed the deal with the Married At First Sight star.
They said: “Katie is delighted everyone loves him – even her sister Sophie’s husband Harry is a big fan.
“He really didn’t get on with her last boyfriend Carl Woods so this is a really important step for them all.
“Everyone has noted how different Katie is in this relationship – she is happy and more relaxed.
“They aren’t clued to the hip and JJ has his own aspirations, which Katie really loves.”
Katie and JJ spent the weekend on the Isle of Wight for the festival with Sophie and Harry.
Speaking about the prospect of marriage on her podcast, Katie said: “I’ve learnt to take relationships slow, not rush, and know my boundaries and I know about red flags.
“He’s very sensible, so he’s got to ask me because I wouldn’t ask him, I’m old-fashioned and I, personally, would want a man to ask me.”
She continued: “As far as it’s going, everything is going good.
“We’re taking our time, that’s how a relationship should be because I’ve learnt from the past. You don’t get married in five weeks, six months or a year.
“Because it hasn’t worked for me. So, everyone likes him, it’s all going well. So, we’ll see what happens.”
She previously revealed she was dedicating a whole chapter in her new book to him and they pair also got matching tattoos on a recent holiday.
Katie has been engaged eight times and has been married three.
The former glamour model was previously married to Peter Andre, Alex Reid and Kieran Hayler.
Katie’s rep has been contacted for comment.
