Katie Price to meet boyfriend's parents

Katie Price's new boyfriend Leandro Penna plans to introduce her to his parents.

The Argentinean model - who met the former glamour model at Sir Elton John's Oscar party in February - hasn't taken many girls home to meet his family, but is so smitten with the British beauty, he can't wait to show her off to his loved ones.

He said: "I'm going to introduce her to my family and all of that. Really, I am not lying.

"I've only done that a few times in my life, but, you know she has introduced me to her family and I want her to know where I'm from and how I am."

Leandro also wants Katie - who has children Harvey, eight, Junior, five, and three-year-old Princess Tiaamii from previous relationships - to experience the lifestyle he leads when he is in South America.

He told Argentina's Caras magazine: "Yes it is true that she'll be coming to Argentina with me. And most of all, I want to take her to Cordoba.

"I want her to drink fernet, I want her to dance cuarteto and to have fun with me."

Though Leandro is keen to introduce Katie to his family, he insists they are taking their romance slowly but he is excited about how well things are going so far.

He said: "Katie is such a loveable person and we compliment each other very well.

"She is very high profile in England but I just care about how she is inside, not about her fame. Am I excited about our relationship? Yes, of course. Even better, Katie doesn't want me to leave.

"Although some people think that I'm going too fast with many aspect of my life, the truth is that I am taking it very slowly."
