KATIE Price has emotionally revealed the "faces" of her five kids saved her from a suicide attempt.
The former glamour model, 44, opened up on the sheer impact of her love for her children Harvey, 20, Junior, 17, Princess, 15, Jett, nine, and Bunny, eight, in her candid new Channel 4 show.
Full of raw emotion, it puts the spotlight on the star after she pleaded guilty to a dramatic drink-drive crash in which she flipped her BMW while banned from the road in September.
Prior to the incident, Katie was diagnosed with co-morbid post-traumatic stress disorder in 2018 and entered The Priory for 28 days to treat it.
She told her new TV show of her "demon in me" being her mental health and said it was her children who pulled her back from the brink.
In a raw quote to camera, she said: "All I saw was the kids’ faces and I never want that to happen again."

Continuing to open up on her struggles, she said: "I hit a severe depression a couple of years ago, depression on top of PTSD.
"I was suicidal, I didn’t want to be here.
"When I’m having a down moment it [mental health demon] comes out. But I’ve got to keep it at bay because it knows.
"It got me one time when I was weak and it can always be there, it’s controlling it."

Katie has previously opened up to The Sun exclusively about her reasons for her rehab stint.
She said: "It wasn’t about drugs or drink or nothing like that. I had severe PTSD because I couldn’t cope with all the s**t that was going on.
"I couldn’t cope so I asked for help and I’m proud I did. I told my family: ‘This isn’t me.’ Things were really, really f**king bad. I went to the doctor and said: ‘Help me.’”
Her therapist encouraged her to have a cull of the toxic people in her life and she finished up stronger and ready to start again.
“I’m just lucky that I’ve got such good family. I’m the warrior, the survivor. I got through it and now I can put up with anything. F**king hell, if I didn’t break then, I never will.
"I know I’m in the public eye but that means s**t.
"I’m still a human being. I’m not a robot."
She gushed over her treatment at the infamous Priory, and added: "It’s amazing. I wish everyone could go. I’d love to be in there all the time. I think a lot of people missed me [when she finished her treatment] because I brightened it up.

"I’d try and be a joker in there so it wasn’t all morbid. That’s just the way I am. Some people were so down they wouldn’t mutter a word, but I got a smile from them because I like to bring people out of their shells.
"I bring out the best in people."
