Katie Price divides fans by announcing that 12-year-old Junior is launching his own collection of clothing

Katie Price has caused a stir among her loyal fans after revealing that her 12-year-old son Junior is launching his own clothing collection.

The 'proud' mum – who frequently causes controversy over some of her parenting decisions – announced the news on Instagram with a gushing post about her hard-working son.

'So proud of Junior he is launching his own collection of clothing with @intensemenswear', she said on Wednesday.

'I can't wait for you to all see what he has been working he is so excited. Love you so much Junior proud Mum.'

But her happy news didn't sit well with some of her fans, who believe Junior is far too young to be working on such a large project.

One concerned follower said: 'Bit too young I think ........should be enjoying his childhood rather than business ideas .....maybe when he's older.'

Another added: 'She's a good mum but to me this is ridiculous.... It's not a good move. They need to have life experience before all this.'

While a third said: 'Wonder what Peter thinks! You can't stoop much lower.'

And a fourth added: 'Let him be a kid. Jesus Christ woman.'

However, many of Katie's followers praised the mum for teaching Junior a strong work ethic at such a young age.

One said: 'The boy is doing good and earning money. His mum is setting a great example by helping him pursue his talents and showing him money has to be earnt. I should imagine Peter is happy that the boy is earning his own money.'

Another added: 'That's so crazy but great news! Can't wait to dress my boys in his clothing line now!'

And another said: 'He certainly has fashion sense & know what he loves & doesn't , bet it's a super cool range.'

Junior appears to have many talents as dad Pete revealed last month that he has also won himself a drama scholarship.
