Katie Price has shared a picture of herself kissing Hugh Hefner, and says that starring in a shot for the late Playboy supremo was a ‘dream come true’.
The 44-year-old former glamour model and reality TV star was a cover star of Hefner’s magazine back in 2002 and even lived with him for a while back in the day.
Whilst many have spoken out against him since his death – including some of the women who lived at his infamous Playboy Mansion – Price has defended him.

She shared a picture of the pair together on Instagram, obviously taken before Hefner died in 2017.
Posting the snap for her 2.6 million followers on the social media platform, Price wrote: "The dream came true when I did the cover of American Playboy and lived with Hugh Hefner and toured America with him promoting my cover and shoot."
Then, she shared another picture of that famous Playboy cover, in which she appeared topless, as was her style at the time.

Nowadays, she’s better known for her work on reality TV, as well as having written several books, but back in the day she made her money by appearing in many popular men’s magazines.
Since Hefner was accused of having been abusive and sexually exploitative of workers he employed at Playboy and the mansion, Price has been quick to defend him on a number of occasions.
Back on her Instagram, the artist formerly known as Jordan defended Hefner on the 50th anniversary of Playboy, sharing a number of pictures of cover stars over the years.

She also pointed out that not many English people have been Playboy cover stars over the years.
Describing her appearance as an ‘achievement, Price wrote: "All the stories that come out about Hugh Hefner, I have to disagree because I lived at the Playboy Mansion for six weeks. I lived and breathed there.
"He asked me to be a girlfriend and all of that, I've got millions of photos from all of our nights out.
"I have to say, the stories that I've read that girls have said about Hugh Hefner I definitely didn't witness and I can say were not true at all."

Katie also shared a video of her mate – Love Island star Hannah Elizabeth – who also knew Hefner.
Hannah said: "I was one of Hef's painted ladies and all these stories coming out about Playboy are untrue and I did not witness any of that at my time in the mansion."
