Katie Price has claimed she and Boris Johnson dressed up as clowns after rummaging through the dressing-up box of Russian-born millionaire Evgeny Lebedev. The 46-year-old opened up about a trip to Italy with a group of 11 other high-profile people including the future Prime Minister and his then-wife, Marina Wheeler.

Speaking during an interview with Louis Theroux, she explained one "random" evening at the luxury getaway with the former PM, saying: "We were talking about how I'd either go to his or mine for a roast dinner with his missus, funnily enough. And then Evgeny had this dressing up room upstairs and loads of fancy dress clothes, and me and Boris went up there and we come down. I think we were both dressed as clowns and we were all mucking about."

Saying the trip was also attended by Joan Collins, mum-of-five Katie said: "I think because everyone had their own power in different ways I think you were just there and it was all treated equally."

She made the confession while dismissing some rumours that have swirled about the trip, denying flashing her breasts at Boris only to be escorted from the dinner table by armed guards, saying firmly: "That definitely didn't happen."

She added: "The truth is we all had fun... I think people have had enough of seeing my boobs. I mean, Google it and you can see it. It's not like I walk around saying: 'Here do you need to look?' That's tacky, I don't do that."

"I turned up, I was put on a private jet with all these people - not Boris, he went separate - and we were there for three or four days in his house. We all had breakfast together every day, lunch together, dinner together and all party together. It was the most random weekend. I was like: 'Little me is here.'"

Referring to Evgeny, who has a life peerage and whose full title is Baron Lebedev, of Hampton in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames and of Siberia in the Russian Federation, she said: "He just liked the fact that I was so down-to-earth and normal."

The trip is thought to have taken place to Palazzo Terranova in the hills near Perugia in October 2016, when Boris Johnson was the Foreign Secretary. He later became Prime Minister from 2019-2022.
