Katie Piper's inspirational acid attack journey 'to be made into a Hollywood movie'
KATIE PIPER's inspirational life story is set to be turned into a Hollywood film, it's been reported.
Katie Piper's life story is reportedly going to be made into a film
The 33-year-old - who suffered life-changing burns after convicted ex-boyfriend Daniel Lynch and his assailant Stefan Sylvestre threw acid in her face back in March 2008 - has gone on to have an incredibly successful career, and it's now been confirmed that producers have bought the rights to her story.
Katie's spokesperson revealed, according to the Mail Online: "America is definitely part of Katie's future career plans, especially with her best-selling books, but for now she's going to concentrate on her Channel 4 presenting role, UK book promotion & being a mum as Belle turns three years old soon."
The latest news comes after Katie previously said that producers had "renewed" the rights to a possible film.
She said: "They did it last year and have renewed them," with a source adding to The Mirror: "It's a hugely emotive story that would make a brilliant film."
Katie is now a best-selling author
Katie has undergone numerous operations since the horrific acid attack
There are good times and bad times and you’re always fighting for that consistency.
Katie - who is now married to Richard James Sutton and is mother to two-year-old daughter Belle - previously told Express.co.uk that she still goes through "good days and bad days".
The best-selling author said that she's "always fighting for consistency" - just like everybody else.
She said: "I think it’s really hard, you can have inner strength at different points but to have it consistently that’s a battle for everybody."
