Katie Price has been in talks to have her life story made into a film.

The three-times married former glamour model - who gave birth to her fifth child last week - is reportedly in talks with U.S. publishers Simon and Schuster to adapt her autobiographies for the big screen.

Apparently, insiders think her ups and downs, which have included current spouse Kieran Hayler cheating on her with two friends, will make for fascinating viewing.

Casting: Katie Price is in talks to turn her life story into a film - and Carmen would be the first choice

A source said: 'Katie's been through a hell of a lot in her thirty six years, but she was clever to document it all down in her books. They're always great sellers and now they can form the basis for a film of her life.

'The publishers think there will be a great appetite to watch a dramatisation of Katie's crazy life and they're so keen to get her on board, they're talking about a hefty pay cheque to go with it.

And though Katie - who has children Harvey, 12, Junior, nine, and Princess, seven, from previous relationships, and 11-month-old Jett and her new baby daughter with Kieran - doesn't plan to star in the movie, she thinks former Baywatch beauty Carmen Electra would be the perfect choice.

The source added to the Daily Mirror newspaper: 'Katie has always admired Carmen Electra and thinks they're very similar in many ways.

'They met several years ago on a photoshoot and Katie's always remembered her- she thinks she'd be perfect for the role and would bring a lot of necessary drama needed to the production.'

Carmen - born Tara Patrick - is most famous for her role on Baywatch, but has also starred in The Simpsons, American Dad and Starsky & Hutch.

Katie has previously admitted she wants to see her life story on screen - but more 'drama' happens to her every time she thinks about it.

She has said:  'I can't wait to make a film. Every year I say I'll do it when I think things are going normal - then another drama comes along. I might as well do it in a few years' time because there's bound to be more dramas.'

The glamour model, who gave birth to a bay girl last Monday, recently admitted that she felt 'alone' when she gave birth to her first child with current husband Kieran.

Last August, he was enjoying a secret sordid affair with Katie's friend of 20 years, Jane Pountney, 49.

She recently told The Sun: 'The only reason I haven’t kicked Kieran out is because I’m trying to understand why he’s done this and the huge amount of effort he has put into his therapy.’

Kieran spent four-days in rehab before submitting to a strict 12-week therapy programme that demands its patients remain abstinent from sex – and Katie believes his compulsive behaviour is no different to a drug addict searching for a fix.
