Carl Woods, Katie Price’s fiancé, has released a lengthy statement on Instagram, saying that the model was ‘never punched or hit’.
The 33-year-old spoke out after being charged with using ‘threatening and abusive behaviour’ following an incident last year, with it revealed that he is due to appear in court in March.
In a statement shared with The Sun, Essex Police said: ‘Carl Woods, 33, has been charged under Section 4 of the Public Order Act.’
In his post shared on his Instagram Story, Woods wrote: ‘Katie Price was never punched or hit. There has been no charge for this. Nor has Katie ever been controlled.’
‘As I’ve said, if you think this women is controllable you must be out of your mind [sic],’ he wrote.
‘The original alleged assault story sold was worth thousands and full of make pretend events. Unfortunately for me, I’ve been dragged into the drama series that is this particular life I’m living as have so many others.’

Woods said that as he’s currently still in a relationship with Price, who he has been engaged to since April 2021, he ‘won’t be commenting any further’.
He added: ‘But I am the victim of lies, bulls**t and manipulation, not only by the press but by the people involved in the original story that was to portray innocence elsewhere before any truths could be revealed at the time (and to earn f**k loads of money for them as I’ve said earlier) believe me when I tell you that.’
In a second Instagram Story post, he shared a photo of Price supposedly taken on August 26 2021, three days after an alleged incident occurred in Little Canfield outlined by Essex Police.

Writing across the picture, he said: ‘2 days after being “attacked” no bruise what so ever. You know why? Because the story was a lie for money!!! [sic].’
He added that the blisters on Price’s lips were supposedly blisters from being on holiday, as opposed to ‘cuts’.
The couple began dating in June 2020 after meeting at Sheesh, having been set up by a mutual friend.

They became engaged 10 months later, with Price telling OK! magazine at the time: ‘It’s refreshing to be with a man that if I decided I never wanted to work again, he’d look after me. I just love him.’
She added: ‘We’d spoken about it a lot, so I knew he was going to, I just didn’t know when. It was amazing. Carl asked my mum and dad for permission – and Junior!’
