Katie Price has shared a sizzling summer selfie as she enjoys a relaxing day in the sun amid her recent legal woes.
The former glamour model turned author and media personality, 46, was arrested at Heathrow airport last week after failing to appear in court for a scheduled hearing.
Instead, she had taken a trip to Turkey, where she underwent a facelift. She was then arrested upon her return, and shipped off in the back of a police van.
A further hearing will take place on August 27, with the judge warning that she must not go abroad again during this time
In the mean time, Katie has enjoyed a day in the summer sun – showcasing her controversial new facelift for the first time as she takes in the rays – minus bandages.
In another picture, boyfriend John Joe Slater, 31, enjoys a dip in the pool
A selfie shared to Katie’s Instagram story today shows the star basking in the sun, her brow and eyes partially covered by the brim of a hat.
‘Relaxing day in the sun,’ reads the caption.
In a second picture, Katie showed JJ standing bare-chested in the pool, facing the blazing sun.
‘@johnjoeslater having a dip ❤️’ she wrote.
JJ shared a picture of the inviting-looking pool to his own story, captioned simply ‘Sundays.’
Katie and Married at First Sight star JJ confirmed that they were dating in February this year, after being spotted looking cosy together at a bar in Newcastle.
Katie broke her silence on her new man on February 25, writing in an Instagram post at the time: ‘They say things happen for a reason , the unexpected happened . Fate . Ticks every box . @johnjoeslater you have proved to me you are a real gentleman and completely except me for me ❤️’.
JJ commented on the post: ‘Fate… thank you so much for being you 🤍’
He has continued to stick by Katie through her recent legal woes, which include her bankruptcy hearing involving an unpaid tax bill for £760,000.
A bankruptcy hearing was set, but Katie was a no-show due to her Turkish getaway.The court heard how Katie had failed to pay her 12 creditors any money – in spite of being paid £84,000 by TikTok to create three months’ worth of content.
By July 30, a warrant was issued for her arrest.
Since her arrest, Katie has been warned that she must not leave the country again, and has to attend a ‘public examination’ in August, with ‘no ifs or buts.’
However, the thought of prison reportedly doesn’t scare the reality TV star who, according to pals, sees jail time as an opportunity to diversify the brand.
‘Katie is full of bravado and was bragging that jail would be lucrative for her career,’ a source told The Sun.
‘She said she would want to give her side of the story and talk about the reality of being infamous behind bars.
‘Katie says she thinks her life is like a soap opera and that a stint behind bars is just another storyline in the saga.’
Metro.co.uk has approached Katie Price’s reps for comment.
