After quizzing the mum-of-five about her new man, Katie’s weight got brought up in conversation, after many fans have shared their worries about her frame.
It comes after back in January, Katie told fans that she was seeking medical help as she reacted to ‘gaunt’ photos.
Susanna said: ‘Katie, can I ask, because I am concerned about your weight. You are very, very, very, skinny.’
Katie replied: ‘Yes, and I am glad you asked this!’

‘Now, people do say, is it because you are overdoing doing the weight loss medication or are you a healthy weight? Have you got that established?’ Susanna asked.
In her response, Katie gave fans a health update and said: ‘People that follow me online will know I have lost weight.
‘I recognise I have lost weight. I look too skinny, I look gaunt.
‘So I have been to the doctors, to see why am I losing, I have done all the blood tests, I have even done the poo one, as well, to find out.’
Susanna asked: ‘The doctor says you are okay?’
Katie explained: ‘I said to them, everyone said I am on Ozempic, they said, well we can tell in your bloods you’re not.
‘I am lack of iron, they are now checking the other bit.
‘And I am going through premenopausal at the moment as well.’
Katie told the hosts: ‘I said to them, everyone said I am on Ozempic, they said, well we can tell in your bloods you’re not’
She added: ‘I am healthy, so nobody worry about me.’
Susanna said: ‘You are healthy, and you are happy.’
‘Yes, very happy,’ Katie replied.
Back in January fans begged Katie to get help after she was pictured looking ‘worryingly thin’ while reuniting with daughter Princess Andre, 18, for a shopping trip.
Speaking on the The Katie Price Show Katie explained to her sister Sophie that she was going to the doctors about her weight loss.
Reacting to the photos, Katie said: ‘I know I look gaunt, I look like I’m ill – hence why I’m going to the doctors tomorrow.’
‘I don’t know how many times I have to say to people, ‘Yes I know I’ve lost weight,’ and there’s obviously a reason, I said it to the doctor. We all know that we’re trying to sort it all out and as soon as I know then I’ll let everyone know.’
Elsewhere in the interview Katie hit back at her ‘disrespectful’ critics as she appeared on GMB for a tell-all chat about her new marriage.
Katie married the businessman at the One&Only Royal Mirage hotel in Dubai in January, leaving her family, including her mother Amy Price ‘traumatised’ – and fans concerned that she ‘didn’t know’ who she was marrying.
However, the media personality took to the ITV daytime show to hit back against critics, insisting she was ‘happy’ and that she can ‘make her own decisions’.
Susanna opened up the chat by admitting that she would be ‘concerned’ if she was a friend of her, knowing she had married a man she had just met, explaining: ‘If you were a friend of mine… I think I would be concerned about you.
‘I’m not sure you’ve had time to get to know the person to whom you are now married, so why the whirlwind?’
Hitting back against the presenter, Katie began: ‘Do you ever really know anyone? If you look at my past marriages, did I ever know they would be what they would be Sometimes I don’t think you can ever know who anyone is…
‘For me, I’ve gone through so much, so many different relationships, and I normally went from one to the other… before I’ve always been in toxic, coercive, controlling, mental abuse, physical abuse relationships.
‘Now, I now know the signs of red flags and all of this, I am older, I can make my own decisions and there’s nothing to say that you have to wait for anything.
‘It’s hard for anyone to understand. It just feels so right, I’ve only been in love twice before that, with Dane Bowers and Peter [Andre].
‘With Lee, it’s so different to every other relationship, and it works for me.’
