Glamour model Katie Price has suffered a miscarriage. The model, better known as Jordan, learned she had lost her baby during a routine scan at The Portland Hospital, in London.

Her manager Claire Powell said Price and her pop star husband Peter Andre were "devastated".

She said: "They just want to deal with it on their own and they are both devastated. We are trying to give them all the love and support they need."

The couple are believed to be recovering at home in East Sussex. They learnt of their loss last Friday.

Ms Powell said Price, who was three and a half months pregnant, was upset that news had leaked of the miscarriage.

She said: "It is not something they want me to go into at all. They want it to be kept a very private matter."

She added: "I know they do a lot in the press, but there are a lot of things people do not know as well."

Ms Powell claimed that a hospital worker had caused the couple even more distress by attempting to sell the story.

Last month Price, 28, and Andre, 33, celebrated the first birthday of their son Junior, who was born at the private Portland Hospital.

He joined four-year-old Harvey, Price's son by her previous relationship with footballer Dwight Yorke.

Price and Andre met on jungle reality TV show I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here! and married in September last year.

In an interview with OK! magazine published this week, Price said she would like another child in "a couple of years".

Asked how many children she would like, she replied "five or six", but said she also had to balance the pressures of her career.

She added that the couple were also looking at whether they could adopt. "I just want to offer a child a good home," she said.

Carol Friend, a spokeswoman for The Portland Hospital, said any allegations of a breach of confidentiality would be taken extremely seriously.

She said: "Patient confidentiality is one of the core elements of the style and culture of this hospital.

"All of our staff are more than well aware that nobody provides any information or even acknowledges that any individual is a patient to anybody else.

"Should there be any accusation of a breach of that confidentiality by any of our people, then a very robust investigation will take place."
