Fans attack Katie Price for posting pic of Princess in a washing machine

Oh dear her latest snap has caused mayhem

Oh Katie Price, what are you like?

No stranger to controversy, the all-singing, all-dancing monotone pop star has ruffled some feathers yet again.

How?

By sticking her daughter in her brand new washing machine.

No, she wasn’t giving Princess a fast spin to get her clean and fresh smelling, she was merely demonstrating her new appliance on Instagram.

In the picture, Princess and all her tumbling locks are seen squeezed into the machine.

Accompanying the picture was the comment: “Hide and seek! Found in our new 18kg machine from Cater Wash the best thing I’ve found to get my washing down quicker.”

Even though the door was actually open and the wee lass wasn’t spinning around in it, fans still accused Katie of being irresponsible.

One fan raged: “Oh my God, why would you allow your children to get into a washing machine and then take a picture of it?”

Another pointed out the dangers of children in washing machines: “A little boy died playing hide and seek doing this where I live. Not trolling, I love Katie, just hope the young ones don’t see.”

A concerned fan made the canny observation: “How about if Bunny saw her doing this and copied her and she shut the door?”

While another commentator called Victoria pleaded with her idol to delete the pic: “Awwww Katie I love you but please take this down. Its obvious this is a publicity stunt for the washing machine to show how massive it is which is great.

“I’m 100% sure Princess was safe at all times. But what about other kids who might see this and think its a good idea to climb in a washer 🙁 it isn’t and could have terrifying consequences.”

Other fans lashed out at her and said they were getting bored of her always plugging something on her site, while another said if she wasn’t famous, she would have been reported.

“Omg 😲 this is not good Katie really if that had been somebody like us that wasn’t famous we would get reported to social services. I think the same rule should apply to celebs. I’m sorry but you’re no better than us, just saying that’s all,” they wrote.
