Katie broke both of her feet while jumping off a wall at a theme park in Turkey.

After flying back to the UK to receive medical treatment, she underwent a gruelling six-hour operation to help with her injuries.

Taking to Instagram over the weekend, Katie updated fans as she shared a photo from inside her hospital room.

Posing alongside boyfriend Carl Woods, she wrote: “Wanted to update everyone who has been sending all the beautiful messages to me. So I’ve had my six-hour op.

Katie Price’s recovery process

Since her disaster accident, the former glamour model has reportedly lost half a stone in five days as she’s “in so much pain she can’t eat.”

A source told The Sun: “Katie’s on all these pain medications but she just can’t sleep she’s in so much pain.

“She’s gone off her food, which is unlike her, and has lost half a stone since the operation.

“She was already tiny, so everyone’s trying to tempt her into eating again as she can’t lose much more.”
