Police are to question Katie Price’s ex-husband Kieran Hayler over historic rape allegations relating to another woman.
The 34-year-old voluntarily agreed to be quizzed by detectives over three alleged incidents with a woman, known to the couple, in 2016, while they were still married.
The former stripper denies what he describes as ‘false allegations’ and insists he will cooperate with police inquiries to clear his name, the Sun reports.

A spokesperson from Sussex Police said: ‘We are investigating a report that in 2016 a woman was raped by an adult male known to her at a location in West Sussex.
‘No arrest has been made. The woman is receiving support from specially trained officers.’
The claim is said to have been made to police by Ms Price herself, who was married to Mr Hayler from 2013 to 2018.
The couple had two children together in that time – eight-year-old Jett and nine-year-old Bunny.
A spokesman for Mr Hayler told the Sun: ‘Kieran is very saddened by these false allegations, and is happy to fully assist the police and co-operate fully to ensure he is quickly vindicated.
‘But he is keen not to get into a public dispute and would prefer to rectify this matter with the police as quickly and calmly as possible, and continue to focus on his own life and future.’
Sources close to Mr Hayler say he is keen to move on from his marriage to Ms Price, and last year he took a swipe at his ex-wife after revealing she didn’t reach out to congratulate him on the birth of his new baby boy.
