Alex Reid has reportedly accepted the end of his marriage to Katie Price and taken off his wedding ring.

Reid was given the £2,500 ring by the former glamour model on the eve of their Las Vegas wedding last year.

Price, who announced the end of her 11-month union to Reid last month, flew out to Los Angeles yesterday, apparently warning Reid not to have any parties in her Surrey mansion while she is away.

"Although the divorce is pressing ahead, Alex still wore his ring around the house and she never complained," a source told The Sun. "She has been leading him on for several weeks now - that is why he hasn't left the house. She told him she needs him there as her bodyguard.

"But yet again she has jetted off around the world and discarded him like a used tissue."

They added: "He understands that he needs to take off the ring to move on, which he has now done. He's in pieces about it."

Price has reportedly taken her son Harvey to LA with her, while Peter Andre has taken their children Junior and Princess on holiday.

Katie Price has revealed that she is still having sex with her estranged husband Alex Reid.

The model, who announced that she and Reid were separated in January, confessed that they are still sleeping together.

She said in an interview with ES Magazine: "We're separated. He still comes to the house but we're not together. Do I go and f**k Joe Public or do I go and f**k an ex? Can anyone here tell me that they've never f**ked an ex?"

The 32-year-old admitted that her relationship with ex-husband Peter Andre is completely different to that with Reid.

She added: "We are still friends, we are adult and amicable and he doesn't live at my house. It's completely different from Pete."

Price also claimed that Andre was "probably" still in love with her after he contacted lawyers over an accidental burn their 3-year-old daughter Princess Tiaamii got while on holiday.

She said: "I wish you could see the burn. It is tiny and not painful. She was with my mother and sister in Klosters and I asked them to put her pyjamas in the sauna so they would be warm and cosy for her when she went to bed and she must have followed my mum in and caught her arm.

"If you knew what went on over on Pete's side of things, it is pure evil. He's probably still in f**king love with me. That's the problem. There's a thin line between love and hate."

Katie Price is reportedly celebrating after finally managing to get former husband Alex Reid to move out of her home.

The model was spotted on a night out with friends in central London this week after apparently serving Reid with their official divorce papers. He will leave her Surrey home this weekend following weeks of refusing to do so, The Sun reports.

Price was joined on her night out by Ben Alger, a cameraman from her reality show who is said to be helping her through the split.

A friend said: "He is being her rock at the moment, but there is no romance."

Meanwhile, friends and family of the star are allegedly concerned for her wellbeing after she started a liquid diet, eating just celery, dehydrating tablets and protein shakes.

A family friend said: "She is putting on a happy face but she is a mess. Going out until the early hour is an attempt to cover the pain."

Alex Reid has allegedly told Katie Price that he will only agree to a divorce after a £1 million pay-off.

The Celebrity Big Brother winner reportedly rejected a £250,000 confidentiality deal that would ban him from talking about his 11-month marriage to the glamour model, deciding instead to pursue the six-figure sum as compensation for being "used" and "abused" during their relationship.

The Mirror quotes Reid as telling a friend: "I’ve been used, abused and treated like ­Jordan’s puppet - all ­because she can’t get over her last ­husband.

"I'm now doubting she ever loved me - it’s as if the whole ­marriage was a sham and a ­publicity stunt."

Meanwhile, a source insisted that Price would refuse to let Reid take a chunk of her £30 million fortune, as she considers herself to be solely responsible for his rise to fame.

"He’s saying that if she wants him to go then he wants a house and a business, which will cost around £1 million.

"Katie doesn’t want to give him money. She’s saying that without her he is nothing. He has a weekly magazine column and has ­appeared on a TV ­reality show, all on the back of her. She says he’s done well out of marrying her and made his ­money so he needs to sling his hook and think himself lucky. She just wants rid of him - and quick."

However, other insiders have claimed that the Page 3 icon still cares for Reid and has been genuinely damaged by their chaotic separation.

"She might come across as as hard as nails but this is ­hurting her," a source said. "The last thing she wants is a messy divorce like the one she’s only just put to rest with Peter [Andre]."
