Fans blast Katie Price as she boasts about her new £3,000 iPhone

Don't drop it, Pricey!

Katie Price has been slammed by fans for promoting a mobile phone that retails for around £3,000.

Sharing a video to her Instagram account, Katie is seen welcoming the iDesign Gold team into her house to take delivery of the phone.

After sitting down in her living room to look at her new toy, Katie told viewers: “Come on girls, I can’t be the only one.”

She added: “This is 18 carat rose gold and guess what, Swarovski diamonds in there. It’s just a dream come true.”

Boasting that she was “the only girl so far to have one”, she urged her followers to “check out the site”.

However, it seems they did, and quickly came back to comment on the price of the gadget!

One said: “From £2,300 to £5,300 .. #seriously.”

Another added: “2-3k for a phone case? You having a laugh?!”

Others commented that they thought Katie had hatched a cunning plan to nab a new freebie phone.

They said: “Omg the other day you posted something showing your old cracked phone and someone wrote ‘you fishing for a new phone Katie? Clearly worked!!”

Another urged the model to be more “modest”.

They said: “Why do you flash it all over Instagram???? It’s naive and telling potential criminals… come and see what I’ve got.. be more modest Katie and keep these things to yourself.”

Another said sarcastically: “Any more freebies you can scrounge?”

Others loved the iPhone, with one person commenting: “I see it, I like it, I want it I’m going to get it!”

Another wrote: “I need!” while a third added: “I love it good luck to you, you deserve it.”

The video did, however, give fans the chance to have a peak inside Katie’s home, which appeared to have been given a makeover following her ex-husband Kieran Hayler’s comments that the mansion had “so many things wrong with it”.

Scaffolding outside also pointed towards the fact that renovation work is currently underway on the property, following Katie narrowly escaping bankruptcy back in December.

Speaking to New! magazine, Kieran said recently: “We didn’t know half the stuff that was wrong with it when we moved in. And the longer you leave something, the worse it gets.”

He added: “It’s mainly cosmetic stuff, or stuff like the heating. Cleaning up behind the animals and horses, things like that. It’s not like the house is falling apart.”
