Katie Price sparked confusion when she shared snaps of her posing with newborn 'twins'.
The 46-year-old TV star is already a mum of five but has often said she hopes to expand her brood. And she's been posing with newborn babies in snaps shared on her social media.
One showed her cuddling up to a baby boy clad in a blue hat and another with a baby girl in a pink onesie. In a third, she told fans: “Finally my twins have arrived.”

She captioned her other baby shots with comments like “evening cuddles with my boy” and “multitasking with my baby girl”, leaving fans confused. Katie was also seen out shopping for baby clothes, adding to the mystery.
However, according to The Sun it seems the “twins” are actually two very lifelike baby dolls. The publication reported that the toys can cost anything from a few hundred pounds to £20,000.
A source claimed that Katie, 46, got the two baby dolls as a way of sparking interest in her upcoming new TV show about her bid to get pregnant and add another baby to her family.
“She's posing with two dolls,” the insider said. “These ones are known as reborn dolls and, while they look incredibly lifelike, they're not real."
"She's doing it to get people interested in her IVF journey, which she's made a TV show about for Channel 4," the insider went on.
The source claimed that the star also hope to have twins in the future - suggesting that she could have them via a surrogate - and that getting the baby dolls was a part of the Mucky Mansion star’s “preparations for a future pregnancy”.
Katie is already mum to son Harvey, 22, with her ex Dwight Yorke, and she shares daughter Princess, 17, and son Junior, 19, with her ex husband Peter Andre. The star also has son Jett, 11, and daughter Bunny, nine, with her former love Kieran Hayler.
Her journey to have another child will reportedly be documented in programme Katie Price: Making Babies, which was apparently filmed when she was ex-beau Carl Woods. It is expected to air next year.
