Katie Price’s underwear could be turned to stone if she moves to Yorkshire.

The 32C glamour model has been invited to donate her bra and knickers to be petrified.

The ancient process would involve dripping water on her smalls – a bit like an ancient wet T-shirt competition.

The three-times married, mum-of-five, 45, is reportedly planning a dream move to the county after being declared bankrupt for the second time.

She is rumoured to be turning her back on her home near Horsham, West Sussex, to live 230 miles away in Wakefield, West Yorks.

The city is just 34 miles away from England’s oldest visitor attraction – Old Mother Shipton’s Well, in Knaresborough, North Yorks.

After hearing Katie, formerly known as Jordan, could be moving to the area, a spokesperson said: “We certainly wouldn’t say no to a pair of her knickers.

“We’re not sure how long her bra would take to petrify.”

It comes after Jonathan Ross donated a pair of his bright orange boxer shorts in 2022 after visiting the attraction for his Myths and Legends show.

They have now turned to stone thanks to the petrifying process.

Staff creased themselves as they used a long hook to hang them up in the dripping water so they could turn to stone.

The spokesperson also told Need To Know: “Ross’s pants are looking pretty solid.”

The chat show host, 63, was in the area filming a new series about famous paranormal stories and dropped in to see the ancient petrifying well.

In the Middle Ages, people believed that the Petrifying Well in Knaresborough was connected to the devil and that they would be turned to stone if they came too close.

Later, people believed it had miraculous healing powers and used it to carry their sick and dying relatives to bathe in the well pool and drink the waters.

The well was first recorded by Henry VIII’s antiquary, John Leland, in 1538.

It opened to the public in 1630.

Mother Shipton – real name, Ursula Sonthell – was born in a cave next to the well in 1488. She started having visions when she was older and predicted the Great Fire of London.

She was known as a witch and made a living telling the future. She died in 1561, aged 73.

Celebrities have donated personal items to be petrified – turned to stone – at the well.

A red jacket from Bargain Hunt was donated in January.

Socks owned by comedian Bobby Davro, TV presenter, Jake Humphrey and ex-Countryfile presenter, John Craven now look centuries old.

A hat worn by movie legend, John Wayne is also on display at the museum.

Supermodel, Jodie Kidd handed in a woollen glove while Julie Bradbury donated earmuffs.

A Korean soldier’s hat from the James Bond film, Die Another Day, David Suchet’s hat, stiletto shoes worn by Raquel, played by Sarah Lancashire in Corrie, an Ewok donated by Warwick Davis, Seth Armstrong’s trademark hat from Emmerdale and Agatha Christie’s handbag also feature.

The most historic and valuable item is a shoe left by Queen Mary when she visited in 1923.

Jay Stelling, storyteller at Mother Shipton, said: “We now know that the process is a natural phenomenon due to the high mineral content of the water.

“Compared to a stalactite or stalagmite, the items petrify very quickly. A small teddy bear takes three to five months, while larger porous items can take six to 12 months.

“It can take two years to get a good half-inch crust on non-porous items.

“In the old days, they used to hang everything from dead animals to wigs under the waters.”
