Katie Price faces arrest on her return to UK, her ‘mortified’ children reveal they fear her next step will be a jail cell, reveals KATIE HIND.
When Judge Catherine Burton issued a warrant for Katie Price’s arrest for failing to yet again turn up to her bankruptcy court hearing this week, there was nobody more disappointed than her loyal friends and family.
There she was, once again, in the headlines for all the wrong reasons. She’d failed to answer the court summons and face up to paying her debts – said to be a staggering £3.2 million – after being made bankrupt twice.
Instead, she jetted off to Turkey for more cosmetic surgery: this time a £10,000 facelift, with her reality TV star boyfriend, JJ Slater, in tow, although she insisted the trip was ‘for work’.
She now faces being arrested at the airport when she returns. She could also be jailed, something she famously narrowly escaped in 2021 when she was given a suspended term for drink-driving while disqualified, insisting she would go to the Priory ‘to get well’.
Her behaviour was met with disbelief from friends who have repeatedly tried to get the 46-year-old to understand the importance of respecting the law, and piles more humiliation onto her teenage children, Junior and Princess.

Now 19 and 17, both are trying to forge celebrity careers of their own – Junior as a singer and Princess as a model – and those close to the family are fearful Katie’s misdemeanours will overshadow their hard work.
