Katie Price was spotted driving away from her notorious ‘Mucky Mansion’ for what’s rumoured to be the final time.
The 46-year-old former glamour model has faced numerous setbacks with her Horsham estate over the past few years. The star even produced a television programme documenting the transformation of the so-called ‘Mucky Mansion’, named due to its chaotic interior and neglected grounds.
The TV personality recently confirmed her departure from the £1.6 million pad, following advice to abandon the home after she was declared bankrupt for the second time back in March 2024. While Katie was bracing herself for bailiffs, fresh reports suggest she had to leave prematurely after becoming the target of an “acid attack”.

A removal firm was seen at the manor this week to assist with the relocation earlier this week. The planned moving date was initially Wednesday, May 29.
Offering more insight via her Instagram Stories, Katie told fans: “Due to (an) acid attack on my car at my house, I’ve now been advised by authorities not to stay at Mucky Mansion anymore”, writing that alongside a picture of her family home, reports the Mirror.
New pictures show Katie driving away from her West Sussex pad in her iconic pink Range Rover, sparking rumours that she’s ditched the mansion for good. The Celebrity Big Brother winner previously took to social media to share a clip of her damaged Range Rover from the acid attack.
She slammed the perpetrators and branded them “scumbags” for trespassing on her property and damaging her vehicle. Taking to Instagram, she fumed: “It’s nice to know someone in the night has come to throw acid all over my car, everywhere, all on my car. Thank you whoever that was.”
The mum-of-five also added over the short clip: “Scumbags outside my house on my private property. I can’t wait to get out of this house in a few months’ time.”
The reality star has been battling to keep her home but was slapped with an eviction notice last month. Horsham County Court ordered her to pack up by 10am on May 29, as part of a move to sell off the property to pay off her debts.
Despite her efforts to appeal to the court for more time, Katie was given a short deadline to vacate. Another legal warning dated 3rd May 2024 popped up at her estate, indicating she had mere days to stop her belongings from being taken away.
After a tumultuous struggle to hold onto her house, Katie confessed to her followers that she actually ‘hated’ the place she once called home. Spilling the beans to her fans during her live podcast tour, The Katie Price Show in London, she revealed: “I am still in my mansion! And guess what? I absolutely have hated my mansion.”
“I tell you why, nine years of hell I’ve had there. Fly-tipping, it’s haunted… and I am living with it. And whoever buys that house, good luck! I hate it.”
She added: “I hate the Mucky Mansion, I never want to see it again and I can’t wait to move into my new place, I am so excited,” Katie also shared with her followers that she “would love a big caravan” but admitted it wouldn’t be practical for her family’s needs.
