Katie Price fans spot moment star says ‘she’s confident she won’t go to prison’ after being arrested over skipping court
KATIE Price fans have spotted the moment she revealed ‘she’s confident she won’t go to prison’ after being arrested over skipping court.
Just days ago, the former glamour model, 46, featured in a video posted by Dentica International after having some work done on her smile.
The clinic, based in Turkey, had filmed Katie and her MAFS star boyfriend JJ Slater, 31, attending a consultation for their Instagram page.
But fans were left fuming in the comments section after she told staff she would return in a matter of months.
One wrote: “Back in 3 months… She’s confident she won’t be in prison…. Takes the p**s.!!”
Someone else asked: “Do they do root canals in prison?” while a third added: “You need locking up Katie.”
Today, Katie arrived at court to face a bankruptcy hearing – hours after being arrested at Heathrow Airport.
The Page 3 legend was wearing head bandaging and sunglasses as she arrived on foot at the High Court in London.
She is currently recovering after undergoing her sixth facelift surgery in Istanbul.
Wearing a beige outfit, she was surrounded by photographers ahead of a hearing due to start at 2pm.
The court appearance comes just hours after she was arrested upon her arrival back to the UK following the trip to Turkey.
She was detained after a High Court judge issued a warrant for her arrest when she failed to appear at court last Tuesday.
But footage emerged last night showing her being confronted by cops and escorted to a police van as she stepped off a British Airways flight.
She had been remanded into custody to appear at court today, but was granted bail in the middle of the night by an out-of-hours magistrate.
The Sun understands she was released on medical grounds after undergoing her sixth facelift just days ago.
Katie flew out of the UK just hours before she had been due to appear in court as part of her ongoing £760,000 bankruptcy battle.
She then underwent £10,000 worth of surgery on her eyes and under her chin in Istanbul after her usual surgeon refused to carry out the work for her.
Despite the warrant for her arrest, she was seen enjoying her holiday as she soaked up sun at a five-star hotel in Istanbul.
A source previously revealed Katie extended her trip over fears she would be arrested with staples in her face following the surgery.
They told The Sun: “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 herself said she was aware she would be arrested upon her return to the UK from holiday.
In a statement begging for son Harvey’s “protection”, she said: “I am aware that I am about to be detained at the airport which is obviously what the courts feel is necessary.
“I do hope of course for my son’s sake who is with me that they will allow some dignity and protection for at least his sake.”
Katie added: “This will be extremely disturbing for him to see.
“Whilst I understand the importance and severity of the matter I do feel like I am being treated like a criminal.”
Just hours before her arrest, she begged fans for money on OnlyFans.
She took to her Instagram Stories yesterday, urging her 2.7 million followers to check out her content on the X-rated platform.
Katie was declared bankrupt in November 2019 and again in March this year.

At a hearing in February, she was ordered to pay 40 per cent of her monthly income from the adult entertainment website OnlyFans over the next three years in relation to her first bankruptcy.
She was then declared bankrupt for a second time in March over an unpaid tax bill worth more than £750,000.
Issuing the warrant last week, Judge Burton said Katie failed to make the payments ordered by the court.
“She has no real excuse in failing to attend the hearing,” she said. “The reason for her absence is irrelevant.”
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.
It comes after Katie was slammed by hotel guests for “ruining their holiday”.
Her face could be seen seeping with blood as she enjoyed a dip in the pool at the Sheraton Istanbul Atakoy Hotel.
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”.
Katie had been accompanied on the face-altering holiday by her boyfriend JJ and her son Harvey, 21.
Katie Price's missing millions
At the peak of her career Katie had an estimated fortune of £45m, thanks to her lucrative modelling career, book deals, and TV appearances.
The cash-strapped mum-of-five was first declared bankrupt in 2019 over unpaid debts of £3.2 million.
In a podcast interview earlier this year, she blamed her exes who include Peter Andre, Alex Reid and Kieran Hayler and lawyers for her money woes.
She insisted that funding her exes’ lavish lifestyles with cars, watches, luxury holidays and homes left her finances in tatters.
She added: “I went through a breakdown, this is how mine started – lawyers and exes, that is my bankruptcy thing.
“And obviously a bit of HMRC.
“When I had my breakdown, if anyone has been depressed… I don’t know if you’ve ever had depression.
“It starts with depression and you just want to sleep all day and not talk to anyone, the phone would ring and you wouldn’t answer it.’
In March, Katie was declared bankrupt for a second time over an unpaid tax bill of £761,994.05.
The demand for payment was made by HMRC last October.
Katie was due to give evidence about her finances at the High Court but failed to turn up – holidaying in Cyprus with her new man JJ Slater instead.
Her Mucky Mansion was a bomb site for years after it was burgled, flooded and swamped by an overflowing septic tank.
She finally moved out at the end of May and is renting a four-bed mansion in Sussex.
