‘I look f****** awful’ says Katie Price as she admits her ‘hideous and horrific’ face has put Princess off surgery
KATIE Price has admitted her ‘hideous and horrific’ face has put Princess off surgery.
The former glamour model, 46, known for her love of going under the knife, even confessed she looks “f****** awful” after every procedure.
And, so much so, that her eldest daughter, 17, will never follow in her footsteps.
Speaking to Olivia Attwood on her So Wrong It’s Right podcast, she said: “She won’t have surgery, she’s seen me go through it all, she knows she’s pretty, that’s the difference.
Katie was spotted earlier this week soaking up the sun on her Turkish getaway whilst recovering from her sixth facelift worth £10,000.
But, speaking in her interview before the op, she said: “If I have surgery I set up the paps because I rather put the most horrific looking pictures out, so no one else can take those pictures of me.
“I look f****** awful. It’s awful but it’s real. It’s not just the before and after, it’s the in between.
“A few years ago I had my eyes done, it looked like I’d been in a car crash – hideous.
“You’ve got to know the process – when you see before and after you don’t really know what it’s like in between, it’s not easy having surgery.
“You have to recover and you do look horrific and horrific for a while.”
Her face could be seen seeping with blood this week as she enjoyed a dip in the pool at the Sheraton Istanbul Atakoy Hotel – leaving some guests feeling queasy.
Furious holiday-goers have said that they couldn’t relax while the mum-of-five paraded around with “incisions weeping pus” and “staples holding her scalp together”.
One guest shared a review on Tripadvisor, writing: “We’re here at the moment and couldn’t fault this wonderful hotel until an infamous British celebrity and her entourage arrived and our opinion changed dramatically.
“Who wants to relax and dine at a hotel looking at someone with blood all over their face, staples holding their scalp on and incisions weeping with pus.
“Oh and she used the swimming pool as well… I’m not sure this hotel should be used as a recovery facility for plastic surgery.
“It’s certainly put me off both visiting again and recommending it to anyone.”
Katie has been accompanied on the face-altering holiday by her boyfriend JJ Slater and her son Harvey, 21.
The former model has been sunning herself in 31C heat in the pricey Istanbul hotel whilst getting a number of treatments done.
Her face was tightly bound in bandages after the surgery but she took the risk of getting it wet as she went for a swim in the hotel’s pool.
At one point the mum wrapped her head in a white towel to protect the stitches around her hairline.
Making sure she didn’t slip under, Katie sat on the steps in the pool.
The 46-year-old star wore a floral bikini and showed off her tattooed stomach and curves, after also having her 17th boob job.
She has yet to leave Turkey after a warrant was issued for her arrest in the UK.
Katie was due to appear in front of a judge last week as part of her £760,000 bankruptcy fight.
But she was a no-show at her hearing and The Sun revealed she instead jetted off to Turkey to get more work done.
Judge Catherine Burton 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 the hearing.
“The reason for her absence is irrelevant.”
A source told us: “Katie’s actually extending her holiday and plans to stay in Turkey longer.
“She’s worried she’ll be arrested at the airport when she lands back in the UK and will have to go to jail before the metal staples are taken out of her face.
“She’s really worried she’ll be arrested in front of Harvey, and that would upset her.
“She’s better off hiding out in Turkey and recovering there.”
Katie was served an eviction notice ordering her to leave her £2million Mucky Mansion by the end of May as bailiffs swooped.
She was supposed to hand over her six cars – a Volkswagen Beetle, a Nissan, two Range Rovers, Suzuki Vitara and Infiniti FX50 – on July 5.
The star also indicated she would hand over her pink Range Rover but has so far failed to do so, the court was told.
