While his family waited impatiently for the final verdict in his trial for the culpable homicide of girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, athlete Oscar Pistorius was busy sending thank you messages via Twitter to anyone(writer) who mentioned his murder trial on their platforms.
According to reality star Katie Price, she received a direct message from Pristorius druing his trial thanking her for discussing the court case in her Now column, the Daily Mirror has reported.
The 36-year-old reportedly revealed how Oscar, 27, thanked her for the support when she guest edited for the newspaper on Wednesday.
Speaking exclusively to 3am, the mother-of-five said: "He was direct messaging me during the case. It’s weird, isn’t it? He was saying, 'Thanks for the support,' and stuff. Just all general chit-chat,"
"Because I mentioned him in my column, he was referencing that. I wasn’t exactly supporting him, but everyone who goes through a trial will be the only one who knows what really happened."
Report says it was her brother who drew her attention to Oscar's messages but now she says she would love to interview the South African, who was sentenced to five years in jail last week.
Back in March, Katie wrote in her column: "we are all equal when it comes to judicial undertakings" and that she was "certainly not going to judge Oscar on other people's theories portrayed via the media.”
Katie's claims come in the same week that it was announced she was to become a regular contributor on Channel Seven's The Morning Show, bringing viewers her thoughts and outspoken views on everything from fashion and beauty to celebrity.
A spokesperson for the star is yet to comment on this story.
