Bookies are already taking bets on how long newlywed Celebrity Big Brother winner Alex Reid and Katie Price will stay married, giving 10/1 they'll split by the end of the month. William Hill have put the odds at 12/1 that the couple will stay together until March. Rupert Adams, a spokesperson for the bookies, told The Telegraph: "The speed of their marriage has caught us by surprise, but the odds suggest that the marriage could be quite speedy, too." The pair got married in a small ceremony in the chapel in Wynn Hotel, Las Vegas, on Monday. Katie and Alex said at the time: "We are very much in love and look forward to the future together. We can't wait to get back and celebrate our marriage with our friends and family who we know fully support our wishes." On Wednesday, the glamour girl's ex-husband Peter Andre broke down during a Sky news interview when Kay Burley asked him about the wedding and the future custody of his children.
