Katie Price has revealed she is on a mental-low, and as a result can’t argue her bankruptcy case in court.
The former glamour model, 45, was declared bankrupt for a second time on Monday after failing to pay over £750,000 in unpaid tax last year.
What Will Happen to Her
Considering what’s at stake, she could lose her home unless HMRC can recover the money.
There was a court order for her in court, but she didn’t appear at the court hearing in London. Not that she really wanted to defy the court order, but things are happening to her behind the scene.
In a teaser for the episode, which is set to air on Monday, she discussed her bankruptcy with producer Jamie East and host Josh Pieters admitting that ‘when you ignore it, it just gets worse.’
Her First Reaction About Her Second Time Bankruptcy
KP was on DailyMail’s comedy podcast, Straight To The Comments! when she first heard about her state of bankruptcy for the second time. She couldn’t believe her ears.
‘Has it? Oh get lost! Are you actually serious, while I’m sat here? What have I done now?,’ she said shockingly.
After hearing that she had been declared bankrupt a second time, she said she had been signed off because of ‘serious stuff’ in her life.
She Tried to Explain Herself
She continued: ‘I just can’t cope with going to a court. Mentally, I can’t do it.’
Josh asked when her debts started accumulating, with Katie explaining: ‘Since my breakdown. When you are ill and depressed everything accumulates.
‘If you can’t cope with something or you haven’t paid that bill. Communicate, don’t ignore because when you ignore it, it just gets worse.
‘It does upset me because they don’t know how hard I’ve tried mentally to get out of that rut that I was in. A rut that I hung myself and thought I’d died.’
Chronicles of Her Low Moments
Katie was reportedly raped at gunpoint during her 2018 carjacking in South Africa, which suffered her a mental breakdown.
She detailed the traumatic events that led her to reach breaking point, suffering a failed suicide attempt where she tried to hang herself, ‘knocked herself out and had black eyes’ – after which she sought treatment for PTSD.
In September 2021, Katie was arrested for drink-driving after flipping her uninsured BMW X5 on its side on a country lane near her home in West Sussex.
Katie admitted drink-driving, driving while disqualified and driving without insurance at court, and immediately checked into The Priory following the arrest, DailyMail reports.
She was then handed a 16-week suspended sentence and two-year ban at Crawley Magistrates’ Court.
Following the incident Katie said she was having therapy once a week and how, at her lowest point, tried to take her own life.
In her hard-hitting Channel 4 documentary, which was filmed in the aftermath of her car crash in September 2021, Katie also admitted the accident finally helped her realise she needed help, and she checked into rehab.
