We won! Katie Price and boyfriend Leandro Penna celebrate in the Royal Box at Cheltenham after Long Run wins the Gold Cup


Katie Price watched the Gold Cup from the Royal Box at Cheltenham Festival yesterday - and celebrated with new boyfriend Leandro Penna after the horse she'd backed won the race.

The 32-year-old model and businesswoman also known as Jordan had placed a bet on favourite Long Run and punched the air as it raced home first past the post - then high-fived her new 25-year-old love.

Katie was apparently a guest of course chairman Lord Vestey at the four-day meet and course managing director Edward Gillespie told The Mirror: 'It's her first visit and she's been great.'

He added: 'She and I were talking horses and about her experience in dressage. I think she was enjoying herself.'

The star wrote afterwards on her Twitter page: 'Just got in from a lovely day at the races and now watching comic relief and donating xx'

Katie had flown by helicopter to Cheltenham with her friend Gary Cockerill and her friend Tanya.

Their outing came as Leandro claimed that the pair had landed a reality TV show in his home country of Argentina.

He apparently told the Daily Star: 'I’m going to take Katie to Argentina because they will love her over there.

'We’ve been offered our own reality TV show. There are lots of shows that we could do but some of them are very tacky.

'Kate is too special for a show like that. It would have to be classy.'

Katie meanwhile had tried her hardest to look the part of Royal Box guest when she arrived at the Festival, wearing a smart black outfit with bright pink heels.

She also ensured her Argentine heart-throb complemented her outfit perfectly, by giving him a pink pocket square to brighten up his black suit.

However, the combination of the pair's perfectly-coiffed hair, huge sunglasses and matching pouts resulted in them looking more like Barbie and Ken than actual people.

Katie, clearly excited about her day out with her beau, posted a picture on her Twitter page of the couple inside the helicopter they used to travel to the racecourse.

She tweeted the photo with the caption: 'On way to the races in a heli also with Gary and Tanya.'

But mother-of-three Katie had earlier struggled with what she should wear to the event, writing on Twitter: 'I'm wearing boring black in killer pink heels. I haven't prepared for this day out to the races x.'

Katie has been using Twitter to keep fans updated on her blossoming relationship with Leandro.

Earlier this week, she uploaded a series of romantic photos of the pair, along with the caption: 'Es todo un tierno. Lo amo,' which translates roughly to 'It's all tender. I love him.'

It had been claimed this morning that Katie and Leandro, 25, were set to marry after the glamour model 'begged' her new boyfriend to propose to her.

But Katie was quick to deny the reports, tweeting this morning: 'Another made up bulls*** story where do these people get there c**p from?'

Writing on her Twitter, she proudly announced she had won some money after making a bet on a horse named Zarkandar in the JCB Triumph Hurdle.

She later Tweeted: 'Just found out I'm sharing a box with Jeremy Kyle, should be interesting... Didn't take him for a betting man.'
