As Katie Price entered courtroom 15 of the Rolls Building, the glamour model spoke to the public gallery, smiling and asking: “You alright there guys?” She was less happy on her departure, calling the reporters “scumbags”.Katie Price has had her bankruptcy court case adjourned until next month, in the latest hearing to resolve her ongoing financial troubles.

The former glamour model was arrested at Heathrow Airport last month and appeared in court several days later where she was told by the judge that she must be present at all future hearings “no ifs, no buts, no holidays”.Price, 46, arrived at the Rolls Building in central London on Tuesday morning in a black cab accompanied by a woman. Wearing black and with sunglasses to shield her face, she did not speak to the waiting press outside.

As she entered courtroom 15 of the Rolls Building, Price spoke to the public gallery, smiling and asking: “You alright there guys?”However, by the end of the court session Price was in less good spirits, addressing journalists present in the courtroom as she left the building: “I hope the reporters write a good story today, won’t you? All the bull**** you write. Scumbags”.

Introduced by her real name, Katrina Price, the media celebrity’s barrister Bertie Boer-Roberts immediately asked Judge Nicholas Briggs if the case could be adjourned.

He requested for the case to be heard in private, citing Price’s “mental well-being” as one of the considerations, saying she “had long been subject to extreme media scrutiny” and that such conditions would be exacerbated by public examination of her financial affairs.He said she would be able to give “more considered answers” in a private interview, which he added would be most likely to lead to a satisfactory resolution of the case for the trustees.

‘A complex matter with a long history’

Mr Beor-Roberts also said it would be useful “to take stock of a complex matter with a long history”.

He said Price “understands her duties” and said she had “been compliant” with the case so far.

Expressing his hesitation to postpone the case, the judge said: “My concern is we’ve been here before,” before asking Mr Boer-Roberts, and the barrister for the trustee Darragh Connell to take a moment out of the courtroom to discuss details.

On return, Mr Connell listed various examples of “non-compliance” from Price in her first bankruptcy case but said her compliance since her arrest earlier this month was in stark contrast to her earlier behaviour and was “welcomed”.

On returning, both parties agreed to Price attending a private interview on 24 September, before a potential public hearing on 11 February if deemed necessary.

Initially, a December date for the private hearing had been suggested, but Mr Boer-Roberts said Price would be performing in a pantomime at this time, so it was agreed it would take place after Christmas.

Speaking to the court, the judge asked Price to stand up. He told her “If you fail to comply with the undertaking you will be at risk of being arrested”.

He told her she was expected to attend the private interview on 24 September, and that she was asked to give a signed witness statement regarding the documents she was able to provide, and any she could not provide, by provide by 17 September.

To both statements, she confirmed: “I do”.

Alex Reid present in court

Price’s ex-husband, former cage fighter Alex Reid arrived at the court partway through the hearing, wearing shorts and a T-shirt and looking a little out of breath. He is one of the people owed money by Price.

He later came outside court and made several claims against Price to the media outside.

Price was first declared bankrupt in 2019, and then for a second time in March this year over an unpaid tax bill of more than £750,000.

She has previously been ordered to pay 40% of her monthly income from the X-rated entertainment website OnlyFans until February 2027.

Price has also been ordered to deliver six of her vehicles – including her personalised pink Range Rover – to the trustee to help pay off money owed.

She did not attend a remote hearing at the Insolvency and Companies Court (ICC) last week, where it was decided her TikTok income would be suspended.

Price rose to fame as a Page 3 girl in the mid-1990’s using the name Jordan, and went on to become one of the most well known reality stars.

She appeared on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2004 and again in 2009, and in 2015 won Celebrity Big Brother.
