Katie Price insists she is “not bankrupt”

She set the record straight about her finances

Never one to mince her words, Katie Price has declared that she is not bankrupt despite some of the ongoing rumours about her financial situation.

While speaking on Loose Women today, the star explained that she has avoided bankruptcy and is not broke.

The 40-year-old said on the ITV show: “Definitely not bankrupt. Most successful people when they have different businesses like me, sometimes they might go for an IVA, sometimes they go bankrupt, but you open another one and you carry on and it’s happened to me.”

She added: “I’m not ashamed of anything. I haven’t gone bankrupt. Nothing of mine has gone bankrupt. It was all to do with tax on one of them. It is what it is.”

The mum-of-five attended a hearing in December last year over a £22,000 unpaid tax bill.

However, she was loaned the five-figure sum by a friend and managed to avoid being declared bankrupt.

She blasted: “It has been like that for ages, all I read about myself, skint, mucky mansion hasn’t got her kids, I am sick of reading it.”
