Katie Price’s boyfriend ‘reveals’ why they’re in Turkey as warrant is issued for her arrest after she skips court
KATIE Price’s boyfriend JJ Slater has revealed that one of the reasons they are in Turkey is to visit a dental clinic.
There is currently a warrant out for Katie’s arrest after she swerved court today to answer questions about her finances after being declared bankrupt twice.
The unconcerned MAFS star shared a snap from Dentica International, suggesting that the pair are having work done on their ‘Turkey teeth’.
JJ also revealed they’re staying at the five star Sheraton Istanbul Atakoy Hotel.
Katie had previously spoke about getting ‘her face done’ while on holiday with Harvey this week.
In a Q&A with her sister, she said: “I’m taking him on holiday next week because I’m having my face done.”
She has also been joined in Turkey by pal Lou Anderson, who is on the trip to get a tummy tuck.
Katie was due to attend court today to answer questions about her finances after being declared bankrupt twice.
After Katie was a no-show at the hearing,Judge Catherine Barton said: “It is in my judgment necessary that the court issue a warrant for Ms Price’s arrest.
“She has no real excuse in failing to attend today’s hearing.”
Katie is battling a £760,000 unpaid tax bill after being declared bankrupt for a second time in March.
She was served an eviction notice ordering her to leave her £2million Mucky Mansion by the end of May as bailiffs swooped.
The court was told Katie was paid £84,000 by TikTok to create content for three months – but blew the lot.
It’s not the first time the mum-of-five has skipped court and, in her new book This Is Me Katie, wrote about the reason why.
She said: “I am so desensitised to it now that I just don’t care.
“When you don’t care, in a way you take back some power. I am not scared of courts anymore, I’m not scared of getting a letter threatening court, I’m not scared of the police.
Katie Price - FOUR recent court battles
KATIE Price has had her fair share of brushes with the law. Here we detail four of those:
- December 2021: Katie avoided jail for flipping her BMW in a smash in Horsham, while under the influence of drink and drugs. She was instead handed a 16-week prison sentence suspended for a year, 100 hours community service and ordered to attend 20 rehab sessions.
- The cash-strapped mum-of-five was first declared bankrupt in 2019 in a bankruptcy court, over unpaid debts of £3.2 million
- Katie was declared bankrupt by a bankruptcy court for a second time in March over an unpaid tax bill of £761,994.05
- May 2024: Katie was served an eviction notice by the courts relating to her Mucky Mansion home following her second bankruptcy.
“I know there would be people who would go down a dark road dealing with what I’ve dealt with, people who might even commit suicide for being hounded in the way I have been.
“But again, I’m not scared. My response now is, ‘go on then, do what you want, you won’t hurt me. You can’t hurt me and I won’t ever get in that dark situation again.
“‘So take what you want. Or don’t take it, or send me another letter. Or take me to court again. I don’t care’.”
