A bitter High Court case between Peter Andre and his ex-wife Katie Price was settled today after she apologised and withdrew claims that he had an affair with his manager and did not want to see his disabled stepson.

Andre, 38, sued the reality TV star for libel and slander over comments she made accusing the Australian singer of not loving her son Harvey and of cheating on her with his manager Claire Powell.
