Katie Price has revealed she’s flying back to Turkey again, in three months, to change her veneers, despite failing to turn up to her bankruptcy hearing last month.
The former glamour model, 46, recently went under the knife in Istanbul for her sixth face lift, which cost £10,000.
As well as cosmetic surgery, Katie and her boyfriend JJ Slater visited the dentist multiple times on their trip.
But it appears she’s still not quite happy with her tweakments as she is heading back a second time.
In an Instagram video, she said: ‘Hi everyone, here I am at Dentica International. Now we all know I love getting my teeth done.
‘Today I’m having a proper clean, seeing the hygienist and then I’m coming back in three months to have a root canal.
‘And where I’ve had some gum receding, they’re going to change these veneers for me.
‘JJ’s also been here and had a full set of veneers done, they look amazing. And Harvey is also seeing the hygienist and my friend is having that composite bonding done right now.
‘They’re so easy, quick, sufficient, professional and I love it.’
Katie confirmed she was travelling to Turkey for facial surgery last week, to be filmed for a new documentary, after failing to attend a recent bankruptcy hearing.
The mum-of-five was absent at a scheduled £760,000 bankruptcy court hearing, having flown overseas for her latest cosmetic procedure.
A warrant has since been issued, with Katie, admitting she’s ‘doing the best she can’ to rectify her financial issues after receiving ‘very clear warnings’ that she needed to attend court.
Katie is understood to have had the facelift at the Trio Clinic in Istanbul, with work being carried out on her eyes and under her chin.
She recently dismissed recent claims that she has travelled to Turkey after being turned down by other cosmetic surgeons.
She said: ‘I’m filming my new documentary. The reason I’ve chose the Trio Clinic is because I’ve had friends who have had surgery there and in my opinion they are the best for what I want doing. I can’t wait, they’re amazing, and they’re thorough here.’
Katie shared a statement on her Instagram account saying she is ‘aware of the severity’ of her financial situation.
She wrote: ‘Whilst I’m currently aware of the severity of my current personal financial situation with my ongoing bankruptcy, I am today shocked that whilst away working for a documentary on corrective surgeries that I should find myself yet again headline news.
‘The media in my opinion once again are trying to cause continued humiliation to myself and family. There are far greater and more pressing issues going on around the world that are more important and I’m sure most people are bored reading stories that are constantly misrepresented.
‘I have I am continuing to to cooperate with the relevant people on matters to the best of my ability which will be addressed after my return from work.
‘Despite consistent stories trying to humiliate me on my personal misfortunes, I am neither embarrassed or ashamed. I own my situation and I am trying my best to work my out out of it and put matters right.’
Katie added that she is currently going through ‘challenging times’ and is doing ‘the best I can’ for the sake of her family.
She wrote: ‘I have to continue in my work in order to satisfy these bankruptcy orders which is all I am trying to do right now. I am however not running from matters and will continue to take matters with great seriousness.
‘I am doing the best I cam to rectify things during extremely challenging times. Once again I would like to highlight there are far greater and more news worthy stories.
‘I will continue to work on my mental health disorders for the sake of my self and my family and do the best I can.’
In May, Katie claimed on her own podcast that she has been signed off from appearing in court for her mental health, after receiving backlash for missing her last bankruptcy hearing to go on holiday to Cyprus.
She had been due to give evidence about her finances at the High Court in May, but at the start of the hearing, lawyers said that she had told them at the last minute she couldn’t attend due to health issues. A judge described this excuse as ‘scanty’.
Katie then jetted off on holiday to Ayia Napa with her MAFS star boyfriend JJ Slater , facing public backlash after being spotted sunbathing together by the pool.
Taking to her podcast, The Katie Price Show , Katie hit back and claimed she had been signed off from court because she was ‘mentally not strong enough’.
She said: ‘Everyone is like “oh she’s missed bankruptcy and she’s gone on holiday!” No, let me address it.
‘The court knew that I wasn’t going to my bankruptcy, because mentally – my consultant at The Priory – I’ve been signed off for any kind of activity for court.
‘I’m mentally not strong enough at the moment to stand in court, be cross examined in front of the media and public.’
She went on: ‘I am taking my bankruptcy so serious, like I do everything else. It’s a very serious situation I’m in and it does look like “oh she’s just gone on holiday”.
‘No, my head at the moment needs a break. I had four days in my diary where I was able to go away.
‘When I say I’m not mentally able and stable to stand in court at the moment because I have a lot of things going on behind the scenes I’m dealing with.
‘Hence, I haven’t been on TikTok for months, since December, I’m only doing what my body and brain will let me do at the moment.’
She continued: ‘I am taking the bankruptcy seriously. It’s not like I’ve jetted off on a bloody five star holiday. I’m not in a £760 a night hotel.
‘It’s not my fault that my friend came to this hotel a week before me and told them that I was coming and to look after me. So when I came here they upgraded me for nothing, this holiday was actually a very cheap holiday.’
Katie then added that she wouldn’t be going to her next hearing and that she was getting a signed letter to allow her not to appear.
She said: ‘There is another court hearing and I won’t be going to that either. I want everyone to know I’ve had a letter from my trustees.
‘Before I went away on holiday I had an hours conversation with my trustees who handle both of my bankruptcies and explained fully my situation. Since then I’ve had a letter from them and a letter from court.
‘[My consultant] has now given a list of things I need to do to discharge me and suspend me from this which has to be signed off by a lawyer.
‘I’m back today, I have the appointments with my consultant, my therapist and everyone around me who will be signing me off legally.’
It comes as Katie appeared to share a snap of herself on a plane munching a sandwich yesterday just hours before her looming court hearing on July 30.
Posting on Instagram, the debt-riddled beauty model shared a picture of her snack, adding: ‘Crisp sandwich is the best.’
It is believed Katie – whose £2million ‘mucky mansion’ was recently repossessed – was joined on the jaunt by pal Lou Anderson.
As entrepreneur and influencer Lou shared the news she was heading to Turkey for a tummy tuck next week, Price seemed to confirm she would be joining her as she replied: ‘Yes girl turkey here we go’
Lou then replied with a series of clapping emojis and wrote: ‘Come on my girl’.
According to The Sun a court official disclosed earlier this week that the case against Katie was still listed for 10.30am.
She could now be taken into custody having failed to appear at court.

MailOnline has approached Katie’s representatives for comment.
Insolvency and Companies Court Judge Catherine Burton said Price had received ‘very clear warnings’ that she must attend the hearing on Tuesday.
Katie was due to face questions about her finances in the specialist bankruptcy court in London from barristers representing the trustee of her two bankruptcies.
A judge at a previous hearing said Katie risked arrest if she did not attend further court dates, adding evidence must be provided if she could not appear.
Issuing the arrest warrant, Judge Burton said Katie had ‘failed to attend today’s hearing’ and had provided no explanation for her absence.
She 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 today’s hearing.’
She continued: ‘The reason for her absence today is irrelevant.’
Judge Burton said that an arrest warrant was not issued ‘lightly’ but that Price had offered only ‘piecemeal co-operation’ and failed to provide the ‘most basic information’ in relation to her bankruptcies.
Katie was declared bankrupt for a second time in March over an unpaid tax bill of £761,994.05 after first being declared bankrupt in 2019.
She was then served an eviction notice that ordered her to leave her Mucky Mansion by the end of May and has since moved into a £5,000 per month new Tudor-style property.
However, last week she claimed ‘everything is sorted’ with her second bankruptcy after being evicted from her Sussex bolthole.
Insisting she now knows ‘how to deal with issues,’ the model promised to ‘never hit rock bottom again’ in an interview with Channel 5 News on Monday.
Speaking on the programme, she said: ‘I’m doing really, really good. I’ve learned a lot about myself, a lot about mental health and obviously being diagnosed with the severe ADHD, learnt a lot about that, which I wish I knew years ago.
‘It becomes noise in your head, and then you just can’t cope with it, you think there’s no light at the end of the tunnel and then that caused depression, then a breakdown, suicidal, ended up at the Priory.’
At a hearing in February, Katie was ordered to pay 40 per cent of her monthly income from the adult entertainment website OnlyFans to the trustee for the next three years, in relation to her first bankruptcy.
She was then declared bankrupt for a second time in March due to an unpaid tax bill worth more than £750,000 owed to HM Revenue & Customs.
In October last year, Katie said she was ‘fed up’ with being threatened with legal action and would go to prison to be ‘done with it all’.
She was due to face questions on Tuesday related to her finances at a hearing known as a public examination, with barrister Darragh Connell, for the trustee, telling the court in written submissions that there ‘remains significant information missing as regards the bankrupt’s income and asset position’.
Speaking in court, he said the trustee does not ‘have any information as to her whereabouts’, adding that Ms Price ‘would not be kept in custody for a long period of time’, but would be detained to secure her attendance at a future hearing.
He said: ‘Her liberty is on the line, but unfortunately we are at the end of the road in relation to this matter.’
The court heard that Katie had previously made a number of ‘last-minute’ requests for changes to her previous hearings.
The former model was first declared bankrupt on November 26, 2019, with the first preliminary application issued on January 30, 2020.
‘The hearing of that application came before me at the beginning of lockdown – at the very last moment Ms Price contacted the court to be allowed to attend remotely on the basis that her son was in hospital,’ the judge said.
‘The court acceded to that request.
‘Since that time there have been many other adjournments of that private examination…usually on the basis that Ms Price decided at the last-minute to seek to co-operate with trustees to provide the basic information they’d been trying to obtain from her since she was first made bankrupt in 2019.
‘Latterly adjournments have been purportedly on the basis of ill health; at a hearing before ICC Judge Mullen on 26 April 2024, he noted the inadequacy of the medical evidence.
‘(He) set out a very clear penal notice that if you Katrina Price failed, without reasonable excuse, to attend a public examination at a time and place specified in this order, you are liable to be arrested without further notice.’
