And a third posted: “Getting a puppy would be the best present.”
Princess decided to choose the mottled coloured puppy and FaceTimed dad Peter with the good news.
Peter congratulated his ex-wife Katie on her gift saying: “Good on you, Mum.”
Katie even explained in the video that the new puppy was to replace Princess’ dog that got run over four months prior.
She told the cameras: “Her dog died basically, about four months ago.
“It got run other. She was obsessed with her dog.
“So now you have a new dog to be obsessed with.”
She then reassured viewers that she had purchased the puppy from a “family run business”.
She said: “You get to see the mum. And I think it is really important to know that puppies may look cute but they are forever.”
