She did not show up for court on Tuesday.

An arrest warrant has been issued for Katie Price after she failed to attend a court hearing relating to her bankruptcies.

The former glamour model was declared bankrupt earlier this year over an unpaid tax bill of more than £750,000. This was the second time she’d declared bankruptcy, having had debts of £3.2m in 2019.

The 46-year-old had been due to appear at a bankruptcy court in London on Tuesday (July 30), after being told she must attend or risk arrest.

Insolvency and Companies Court Judge Catherine Burton said Price had been given “very clear warnings” about what would happen if she didn’t attend.

She added: “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. The reason for her absence today is irrelevant.”
