Katie, who revealed that she's been diagnosed with severe ADHD, also shared that after she and her family were held at gunpoint in South Africa in 2018, her daughter Princess, 16, still has therapy.
The star previously said that the carjacking led her to reach breaking point, suffering a mental breakdown in 2018, and a failed suicide attempt where she 'knocked herself out and had black eyes' - after which she sought treatment for PTSD.
Discussing the trauma she endured during her childhood, Katie told Elizabeth: 'I got raped in a park when I was seven, then I was nearly abducted.

'Then I worked with a photographer, the police knocked on the door and he used to drug girls with milkshakes, but I never took it.
'One day he said ''I want you to be naked in a white wet shirt'' and I said ''no'' and then ''yeah'', so my start with men wasn't good.
'My first boyfriend beat me up, the next would rip my clothes up and I would have to go ring my mum naked from a telephone box, then the next one cheated on me.
'So none of them were healthy and you become insecure and needy it becomes toxic. If men hadn't been in my life I wouldn't be bankrupt, mentally abused etc its to do with men.
'I don't know if that is why I do modelling because it's like you can see me but can't touch me.'
Katie went onto add: 'The rape never bothered me until I did Piers Morgan Life Stories and I was embarrassed. I cried because I never thought about it but it obviously bothered me.
'My mum had a cup of tea at the cafe and I remember the police coming and looking at my knickers, and I remember the man clear as day.'
Katie also reflected on her turbulent romantic history, which includes three marriages and a string of failed relationships.
