I Saw Things No Child Should See— Princess Andre Recalls Near-Kidnapping During 2018 South Africa Film Shoot

Princess Andre has recounted the horrifying moment she thought she might die after being held at gunpoint during a carjacking in 2018.

Speaking in an interview with ITV, the 17-year-old revealed the traumatic incident happened while she was filming a show in South Africa with her mother, Katie Price, and her brother, Junior.

According to Princess, she was just 10 years old at the time when six armed men surrounded them. The attackers held her mother at gunpoint, threatened her and her siblings, and even attempted to kidnap her.

she said: “I just remember the noise, oh my God it was disgusting. This guy, who had a baseball bat and he started smashing the window.

“I looked out the window and I remember it not feeling real, and the guy was just staring into my soul. Then they were like “we’ve got guns, we’re going to shoot you”.’

“My mum… the guys were like touching up my mum which is disgusting and she was like “just F-off my kids, don’t touch my kids”

“I think they wanted me because of my blonde hair and blue eyes cause they said “give me your kids”. Imagine hearing that at like 10 years old.

“After the hijack happened, the police said it was a miracle that we survived. It is the scariest thing I have ever been put through. In that moment I genuinely thought I was going to get kidnapped and die.

Speaking to her brother while on a trip in Ibiza, Princess told him: “A lot of those traumas are still there, so I think it’s something you have to learn to just, like, deal with.”

In a 2022 documentary, Katie Price revealed the full horror of that night — disclosing that she was raped during the attack.

Princess admitted that she witnessed disturbing scenes no child should ever see, and she is still dealing with the emotional impact of not only her own fear, but also her mother’s trauma.

She added: “Mum was heartbroken and she went through a dark time and it was things kids shouldn’t see and when we needed our mum there, she wasn’t there because she had her own problems.

“Kids in school would ask me about it and I was like 11 and I would just cry about it in bed. I couldn’t just go to my dad about it because I grew up with them not liking each other.

“I’m not healed or fully recovered from it but mum has fixed herself compared to how she was back then.

“She spoke to me about it and she apologized and I never wanted an apology but it was a lot that she acknowledged it and she realized she needed to prioritize us, we now talk a lot and she is now my best friend.”
