Katie Price has been slammed for being a ‘dangerous example to children’ after she was seen riding her horse without a helmet on Tuesday.
The former glamour model, 45, who has her own equestrian clothing line, shared a clip to her Instagram Story while promoting her latest range.
Wearing a bright blue hoodie and hot pink leggings she rode her horse, Wallis down a country lane but was met by a slew of comments from concerned fans.
Katie captioned the post: ‘Wallis still vocal and bouncy in his golden years. Me in my happy place. Clothes from my KP Equestrian range.’
One fan questioned: ‘Where is your hat? Young rider will see this and think it’s ok. It doesn’t matter how much you trust your horse, anything could happen.’

‘Please wear a riding hat! Doesn’t matter how safe you feel or your horse is….young riders look up to your equestrian style and might take the risk themselves,’ another added.
A third person said: ‘Please wear a hat, you have lots of young people who follow you, your insurance if you have any will not pay out if you are not wearing a hat.’
Someone else commented: ‘Love him he’s stunning but please wear a riding hat.’
While others also raised concerns about the example that she was setting: ‘Katie wear a hat you’re not a very good image for people’; ‘Please set a good example and wear a hat.’
Currently, there is no legal requirement for adults to wear a helmet.
However, the Highway Code states ‘children under the age of 14 must wear a helmet which complies with the regulations and it must be fastened securely. Other riders should also follow this advice.’
It comes after Katie seemingly confirmed her rumoured romance with Married At First Sight UK star John Joe Slater as they were spotted looking ‘very cosy’ on a night out in Newcastle last week.
The former glamour model was spotted with the hunk, 34, at late night venue Bobby’s bar following her recent split from Carl Woods.

The pair could be seen sat close together with Katie flashing her very ample assets in a plunging leather catsuit.
One onlooker told The Mirror: ‘He came in after her and they sat together for at least an hour’.
‘They looked very cosy together, especially when she rested her arm on his shoulder.’
John, also known as JJ, is said to have caught her eye when they met following his appearance on the most recent series of MAFS UK last year.
A source previously told The Sun: ‘They’ve met a few times and are texting each other constantly.
‘She’s really into him – this is the first man she’s actually been interested in since Carl.’
Katie had spoken of marrying and staring a family with Carl many times in recent years but she announced she had split from him as she took to social media while seeing the New Year in with her pal Kerry Katona.
