Jordan has blasted Madonna for using her celebrity status and wealth to adopt.
The glamor model - who has two sons, Harvey, four, from her relationship with Dwight Yorke, and 17-month-old Junior with husband Pete Andre - says she is planning on adopting herself but would not expect special treatment like Madonna.
The 'Hung Up' singer was granted temporary custody of 13-month-old Malawi baby David.
Jordan - real name Katie Price - said: "I'd probably want a baby, so I could know them from the very beginning. But I don't know about adopting abroad yet as it's not something I've really looked into. I don't think it's right that just because you're a celebrity and have money you should be able to adopt a baby that easily, particularly when you have people who can't even have kids, who can't adopt or are put on a long waiting list. Everyone should be treated equally."
Jordan also claims Madonna's decision has trivialised the whole adoption process and made it fashionable instead of commendable.
She added: "Pete and I are definitely going to adopt, but not yet. We'll have more of our own first. And at the moment I think it's becoming a fashion, which I don't like. I respect people adopting, but I don't like that it's becoming fashionable."
