- Katie Price arrested at London Airport
Last week, it was revealed that a warrant had been issued for Katie Price's (46) arrest in London. The English model, who has previously been declared bankrupt twice, failed to appear for a court hearing on July 30th related to her bankruptcies. Now, the British "Daily Mail" reports that the 46-year-old was arrested at London's Heathrow Airport. Price had recently traveled to Turkey for a cosmetic procedure.
The "Daily Mail" has obtained images of Price in police custody. In the pictures, she is seen with her head bandaged - likely a result of the cosmetic surgery - sitting in a police vehicle. The London Metropolitan Police confirmed the arrest to the British publication. Price has been taken into custody and is due to appear in court tomorrow.
Katie Price's Tax Debts
During the court hearing last week, lawyer Darragh Connell, who represents the trustee in the bankruptcy proceedings, stated that Price would not be serving a long sentence following her arrest. The only aim was to ensure her attendance at a future hearing in the bankruptcy case.
The model, who is also active on the adult website OnlyFans, was previously ordered in a separate legal dispute over unpaid bills to hand over 40% of her OnlyFans earnings to creditors for the next three years. According to the BBC, Price had previously expressed her frustration with legal threats, stating that she would rather go to prison to "put an end to it."
Her second bankruptcy, declared in March of this year, is related to tax debts totaling over 900,000 euros.
The arrest of Katie Price at London's Heathrow Airport was reported by the British "Daily Mail", with the publication also releasing images of her in police custody, showing her with a bandaged head likely from a recent cosmetic procedure. Despite the arrest, her lawyer Darragh Connell stated that she would not serve a long sentence, aiming only to ensure her attendance at a future court hearing for her bankruptcy case.
