Katie Price made her debut as a regular panellist on 'Loose Women' this morning (05.01.16).
The 37-year-old beauty, who stepped in as a guest presenter on the lunchtime show twice last year, may have only just made her first appearance as a weekly presenter on the programme but has certainly made her mark on the panel as she's vowed to let loose and speak her mind.
Asked what viewers can expect from her this month, she said: "Well, well, well, what can I say? Whatever I'm thinking I say. Watch out, I'm going to say it how it is."
But it seems nerves got the better of the former glamour model on her first day as she suffered an awkward faux-pas within just minutes of the show starting when she accidentally referred to actor Eddie Redmayne as "Eddie Redmar."
Introducing the topics of today's programme, she said: "We'll be discussing the dilemma raised by Eddie Raymar's new film 'The Danish Girl.' How would you react if your husband confessed he wanted to become a woman?"
And her embarrassing blunder didn't go unnoticed as her fellow panellists stared at her in amazement as she attempted to put the error behind her as quickly as possible.
However, it seems the little slip-up may have been a result of a stressful morning as Katie - who lives in Horsham - missed her train into London and arrived late into the studio.
Taking to Twitter, she wrote: "Can't believe gatwick express have changed the time table now I'm late (sic)."

Lauren Goodger's mother told her she was fat.
The former 'The Only Way is Essex' star - who has recently dropped four stone in weight - has claimed her body confidence issues stemmed from her childhood after her mum Cheryl told her she had body dysmorphic disorder.
Speaking on 'Loose Women,' she said: "My mum once said to me, 'You know you get the skinny girls that think they're fat, you're fat but think you're skinny.' Body dysmorphia."
The brunette beauty has always had a turbulent relationship with her mother - who sent her to live with her father when she was just four years old due to postnatal depression - and Cheryl's made no secret of the fact she dislikes the way Lauren - who has had a nose job, boob job and Botox injections - has altered her physical appearance.
Speaking in 2014 when Lauren took part in 'Celebrity Big Brother', she said: "[Lauren] was so pretty. I don't like the big lips. I wish she'd stop. I'm not against her having her nose done though. But she really didn't need a boob job."
However, Lauren, 29, now feels comfortable in her body after shrinking five dress sizes and is looking forward to slipping into a skimpy bikini over the summer for a girls' holiday.
She said recently: "I haven't been on a girls' holiday in four years because I didn't feel comfortable. Now I can't wait to book one!I want to be naked every day! I'd definitely be up for nude shoots now while I'm young and haven't got kids."

Downton Abbey's Lesley Nicol is set to join 'This Morning.'
The 62-year-old actress - who is known for playing Mrs Patmore in the ITV period drama until it came to an end last month - has swapped the Yorkshire country house kitchen for the red sofa on the breakfast show as she fronts a two-part special for the ITV programme's Give A Dog A Home appeal.
Speaking to the Daily Mirror newspaper, she said: "This is such a worthy cause, and one I'm very passionate about. It breaks my heart to see any animal suffering and it's fantastic that 'This Morning' are helping to find homes for them too."
The star will be welcomed by hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield as she teams up with the Dogs Trust charity to find new forever homes for dogs abandoned at Christmas.
She explained: "It's always great seeing Phillip and Holly as I know they are big 'Downton' fans, but this time we'll talk about something a little different."
Meanwhile, the final ever episode of 'Downton Abbey', which first hit screens five years ago, aired over the festive period and set a new ratings record by pulling in 10.9 million viewers - becoming the most watched show of Christmas Day.
Lesley is set to appear on 'This Morning' for her two-part special on January 7 and January 8 on ITV.

Richard Blackwood doesn't care if he gets axed from 'EastEnders.'
The 43-year-old actor may have only walked onto Walford as badboy bar owner Vincent Hubbard 11 months ago, but he's admitted he's not particularly bothered if BBC bosses decide to give him the chop in the next coming months.
He explained: "However long I've got, I don't mind. It's done so much for me about showing I am a credible actor.
"A lot of people didn't know I could do it. I've proved what I can do. So however long I'm there, I'll be grateful."
The handsome star made his first appearance on Albert Square in a live episode last February and, although his contract was only temporarily, he made such an impact on viewers that producers decided to make him permanent.
He told the Daily Star newspaper: "When I joined, I knew that if it went well then it would be extended."
And, although he's not too concerned if his career on 'EastEnders' comes crashing down, it seems Richard still has a little while left on the Square as his alter-ego is currently caught up in a war with the infamous Mitchell family.
But that's not all, as Vincent is the only person who knows about the brutal murder of Arthur 'Fatboy' Chubb (Ricky Norwood) on Boxing Day and is yet to reveal the truth.
Meanwhile, this year looks set to be a successful one for Richard as he's been nominated for Best Newcomer for his portrayal of Vincent at this year's National Television Awards.

Danniella Westbrook has claimed she's been harassed for money since she's signed up for 'Celebrity Big Brother.'
The former cocaine addict, who has reportedly been offered £200,000 to join the infamous house, thinks it's "so wrong" she's being hassled by numerous old faces since news of her six-figure deal to take part in the show emerged this week.
Taking to her Twitter account to vent her anger, the blonde beauty wrote: "My phone is blowing up 2day, funny how many people wanna get in touch when they think your gonna be £££ #Gotta love em #SoWrong #Loyalty (sic)."
The former 'EastEnders' star - who lost the septum in her nose due to drug abuse - has battled with financial troubles over the past few years and was even forced to sign on for government benefits at the Jobcentre in 2014.
Six months ago, Danniella thought her luck had changed when Channel 5 bosses dished her out an impressive deal to take part in the programme, but producers reportedly later withdrew their offer following health concerns.
However, after turning her life around, the 42-year-old actress is set to enter the house tonight (05.01.16) and has a few sneaky plans under her belt to stir some trouble.
A source said recently: "'Celebrity Big Brother' is a great opportunity for Danniella to set the record straight, but she is planning to be as controversial as she can.
"She won't think twice about getting naked if a housemate takes her fancy then she will definitely crack on."

Ryan Thomas won't do reality TV.
The 33-year-old actor is preparing to leave 'Coronation Street' after 16 years in Weatherfield and though he knows he'll receive "knockbacks" when he looks for his next role, he insists he will still be taking his career seriously, whatever happens.
He said: "I am ready for auditions I am ready for the knockbacks, Rejection is part of being an actor. I want to stay with acting. I want to take it seriously. I don't want to become a reality star. Succeed or fail, I will learn so much from it."
Ryan admits walking away from his role as Jason Grimshaw is the "biggest decision" he's ever made and has left him feeling both "scared" and "excited".
He told OK! magazine: "I'm scared and excited. It's a new start. It's going into the unknown. I'm feeling a mixed bag of emotions as I don't feel like I know anything else. It's the biggest decision I've ever made in my whole career. I am going to miss my 'Corrie' family so much. The cast and crew are fantastic. There is not a bad egg in the entire company."

Gemma Collins thinks she's "strong enough" to compete on 'Celebrity Big Brother'.
The 34-year-old television personality is rumoured to be part of the line-up for the show when it premieres tonight (05.01.16).
And despite the fact she quit 'I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!' after just three days when she appeared on the programme in 2014, Gemma insists it's different this time around.
While she didn't officially confirm her involvement in 'Celebrity Big Brother', Gemma said: "I've never won anything in my entire life, so I would love to win. I think I'm strong enough and this time it's different to the jungle."
Bubbly blonde Gemma also revealed the real reason behind her departure from the jungle, blaming an alleged attack by ex-boyfriend Alex Moss the night before she left for Australia.
She said: "When it came to the helicopter [on I'm A Celebrity...] I didn't cry because I was scared, I cried because I was in shock."
Gemma claimed Alex spat at her during their row, but he has always strongly denied her allegations and was never charged.
Meanwhile, Gemma has dismissed any chance of getting up to any raunchy activities during her time in the 'Celebrity Big Brother' house.
She laughed to Britain's OK! Magazine: "I might get an urge but I certainly won't be having sex on live TV!"

Chelsea Halfpenny wants a permanent role in 'Casualty.'
The 24-year-old actress played junior Doctor Alicia Munroe for eight episodes in the medical drama from September until November last year, before she made an emotional departure, but she would love to return in the near future.
Asked if she could see herself going back to the soap, she said: "It's a possibility. I enjoyed my time in 'Casualty' and I wish it had been for longer. The people were really lovely ... If I did go back on a more permanent basis, I'd have to move to Wales, where it's filmed, but that's fine by me. I'd never been to Wales before I did 'Casualty' but I love it."
And it's not just a return to 'Casualty' the brunette beauty has her eye on, as she's also keen to step back into the Dales for a stint on 'Emmerdale' one day following her exit as troubled teenage mum Amy Wyatt two years ago.
She told Soaplife magazine: "If it was entirely up to my heart, I'd probably still be there now because I love the show and the people. It changed my life, gave me confidence and I came out of it having learnt so much.
"However, my head told me I needed to go and try other things - theatre and different TV.
"I don't ever regret leaving 'Emmerdale' but I still miss it. I feel very lucky not to have been killed off. The writers always liked writing for Amy and she was a great character to play."
