Katie Price has reportedly been served an eviction notice at her Mucky Mansion home in West Sussex.
The 42-year-old reality star, who is in the midst of a bankruptcy battle, was allegedly served a notice earlier this month with a deadline of May 29 2024 to vacate the property. The notice, dated April 29th 2024, states: “The court has issued a warrant or writ for the possession of the above property (land) at the request of the claimant.
“A warrant gives a county court bailiff the authority to evict you and hand over possession to the claimant. A writ gives a High Court Enforcement Officer the authority to evict you and hand over possession to the claimant. In this notice the term ‘Authorised Person’ is used to refer to either the Bailiff or the High Court Enforcement Officer.”

According to an image of the letter, seen by the Mirror Online, Katie and “any other occupiers” have been ordered to arrange to leave the property with their belongings before the aforementioned date. Daily Star has reached out to Katie’s representaties for a comment.
It comes following reports that Katie is at “real risk” of losing her £2million home due to her financial struggles. The model recently made headlines after she decided to skip her second bankruptcy hearing and instead, jetted off to Cyprus with her new beau JJ Slater.
Earlier this year, Katie was declared bankrupt for the second time due to an unpaid tax bill of over £750,000 owed to HM Revenue and Customs, reports the Mirror. Katie purchased the property back in 2014, reportedly costing her £1.3million at the time.
The house, now in a state of disrepair, features in her Channel 4 renovation series. In March, Katie defiantly told fans that ‘no one can take her Mucky Mansion’ despite her financial troubles, stating: “You’ve followed my life, my journey, I say it as it is. Yes, I’m in a bankruptcy. But guess what? I own my house. No one could take it off me as well.”
That same month, the High Court ruled that the 45 year old will have to give up half of her monthly earnings. The court heard that trustees sought an income payment order meaning money from Katie’s earnings would be used to pay off her debts.
Joshua Harris, Bankruptcy Trustee at Harris and Partners, told The Sun: “Price faces the risk of losing her £2million property, which highlights the severe realities of bankruptcy.”
He further added: “In situations of substantial debt, asset repossession is a real threat, used by creditors to recover what they are owed. Not settling financial duties can lead to severe outcomes, including the loss of valuable assets and further financial hardship.”
Last year in October, the mother of five disclosed that she was “fed up” due to constant threats of legal action. Katie explained her bankruptcy situation and how she frequently had to go to court it became such a common occurrence for her, she exclaimed she had been there “more times than I’ve had hot dinners”.
Indifferent towards possible imprisonment, she stated that she would “genuinely” not care if she got jailed. She has since been making money using her OnlyFans account and charging substantial amounts for custom message to her fan base.
