Jane Pountney's husband Derrick is hoping his own friendship with former glamour model Katie Price can be rekindled.
Katie Price
Left devastated last year following the discovery that her husband Kieran Hayler and best friend Jane had been sleeping together behind her back, Katie is now in Derrick's eyesight and hopes he can bond with the beauty in the future.
He told heat magazine: "I was a friend of Katie's first. She's alright, Katie, she's a good girl. She's not the monster everyone thinks she is."
Katie has since reconciled with Kieran and spoken out openly about her husband's affair, with Derrick thinking she's lashing out because she's still "hurting".
"It's all a massive front in the house. Katie's similar to me - we're a couple of big softies really.
"Kieran and Jane are the ones that have taken advantage of the situation.
"Katie is bringing it all up again on TV because she's hurting and so am I."
Amongst the revelations Katie has been spouting in the Celebrity Big Brother house was one that she caught Kieran and Jane cheating at a onesie-themed party.
"Whenever I do parties they are always fancy dress because I think people make an effort. So this was the first year I didn't because last year I did a onesie one and Keiran and Jane f***ed in my stables so I will never wear a onesie again.
"It was on the cameras, it was one o'clock in the morning on my cameras. You can see them walking up to the stables and I never knew, everyone was in my house partying.
"Don't mess with the Pricey!"
