Kieran Hayler, the former husband of Katie Price, has pleaded not guilty to multiple sexual assault charges. The 38-year-old personal trainer faces allegations of sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl while he was married to the ex-glamour model.
The charges include three counts of rape and one count of sexual assault, reportedly occurring from October 2016 onward. At the time, Hayler and Katie Price, 47, were married. The couple tied the knot in 2013 and share two children before their separation in 2018.
It has been confirmed that the alleged victim is unrelated to either Hayler or Price.
Hayler appeared at Lewes Crown Court this morning, arriving from Northchapel. Wearing a dark suit with a white shirt, he stood in the dock as the court clerk read out the charges. When asked how he pleaded, he clearly responded, “Not guilty,” to all counts.
The court scheduled a pre-trial review for April 23, 2026, with the trial expected to last one week starting October 6, 2026. Hayler was granted bail on the condition that he does not contact the alleged victim.
A spokesperson for Hayler stated: “Kieran Hayler strongly denies all allegations. He has fully cooperated with police during the investigation and will continue to do so. He believes in the judicial system and looks forward to clearing his name.”
