Alex Reid: ‘dating Katie has caused me grief’

Cage fighter Alex Reid has admitted that dating Katie Price has caused him problems professionally.

Alex Reid has said being known as Katie Price's boyfriend has not helped his career as a professional mixed martial artist. "I'm not one to look a gift horse in the mouth and some of my relationship with Katie has seen me benefit," Reid told the News Of The World. "But a lot of it has caused me grief from a business point of view. My sponsorship endorsements with certain companies have stopped because they see me as a negative influence on the sport. But ultimately this is not about business - this is about someone I love. There's a part of me that's attracted to the whole celebrity thing. I mean, why else would I let myself in for everything that's happened to me?"
Reid went on to reveal that he can't wait to have children with the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! star. "I want children and I don't want to wait too long. The more the merrier, but three would be good. I've made no secret about what I want with Katie," Reid explained before saying he is happy to give up cross-dressing for Price. "I've been there, done that, it's boring now. So I've cross-dressed, big deal. I've done enough to last me a lifetime. I really don't feel the need to wear a dress. It's never on my mind now."
