The pair agreed in a series of emotional phone calls that they are ready to become close again. Now they are planning to take their kids out together as a family in the New Year — for the first time since their four-year marriage ended in a bitter divorce two years ago. A family friend said: “They’re ready to move forward together and have discussed being seen in public again. It’ll be day trips with the children — working things out generally and taking those important steps to improve the relationship.

“It’s not romantic — but they know there’ll be speculation.” The pair have already taken steps to end their public feud. Earlier this month Aussie Peter accepted an apology from Jordan, 33, in the High Court in London over her false claims he had an affair with manager Claire Powell. Jordan, real name Katie Price, also sent Peter good luck tweets before his stint on I’m A Celebrity earlier this month. And singer Peter, 38, has admitted in interviews: “I love her as the mother of my kids. We’re building bridges to try and be friends.” Kids Princess, four, Junior, six, and Harvey, nine — Katie’s son with ex-footballer Dwight Yorke — will spend Christmas and New Year’s Eve with Peter. He has said he could never get back with the glamour girl. Peter has also said he felt sick whenever he saw her with cagefighter Alex Reid. She married and divorced him within two years of her split from Peter.
