An arrest warrant has been issued for Katie Price.
It has been reported that the star failed to attend a bankruptcy hearing, resulting in the warrant. The former model was previously warned that she was required to attend court and answer questions regarding her financial situation.
The Sun has claimed: “Katie, 46, was a no-show at today’s hearing – with Judge Catherine Burton now issuing a warrant for her arrest. The Sun revealed she has instead jetted off to Turkey with pal Lou Anderson to get more work done.”

Pricey was declared bankrupt for the second time in March and is currently battling with an unpaid bill of a whopping £760,000. Back in May, the former I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! star was served an eviction notice.
She was ordered to leave her Mucky Mansion, reportedly worth £2 million, by the end of May 2024. However, in an interview with Channel 5’s Jeremy Vine last week, Katie claimed “everything is sorted” and that she will “never hit rock bottom again”.
“To be honest, I’m not ashamed about the bankruptcy think either. It can happen to anyone at any time, and I’m glad in a way when I look that everything’s happened at once because it made me sort everything out.” She was also supposed to appear in court back in April, but her lawyers claimed that the star was unable to make it.
At the time of the incident, a judge told the barrister: “It’s quite apparent that the evidence was filed very late and not even filed with the court. We are in a very serious situation as a consequence. She may be held in contempt of court, imprisoned, fined or a warrant issued for her arrest.”
Since she was declared bankrupt, Katie has been forced to give 40 percent of her OnlyFans earnings to pay off her unpaid tax bill. When she was declared bankrupt for the first time back in 2019, Pricey was looking at debts amassing £3.2 million.
