Katie Price is a mess and seems beyond help?

Reading the tabloids of late and Katie Price seems desperately out of control.

  1. She has been declared bankrupt for the second time, owing nearly £762,000 in debt to HMRC.

  2. She has been caught driving without a licence and insurance again and claimed she did not her attend her court appearance due to her ADHD.

  3. Currently planning on having a baby with her latest boyfriend who she has only been dating for a couple of months.

  4. Constantly making snide remarks about her ex's.

  5. Announced to the whole world on a podcast that she took Gareth Gates virginity when he was 17 and she was 6 months pregnant.

  6. Promoting a low-calorie diet on Instagram where she detailed her meals adding up to only 755 calories a day.
    The NHS states the recommended daily intake is around 2,000 calories a day for women and 2,500 for men.

I know Katie Price has never really had a clean cut image but surely she must realise what a mess she has become?

Thats because her ex just had a baby with his wife.

I don't understand her apologists who constantly state she's a poor victim in all of this, and it's all everyone else's fault!

DistinguishedSocialCommentator · 03/04/2024 22:50

If people stopped printing about her, trust me shed change

RobertaFirmino · 03/04/2024 23:42

Yes, I would wager that Ms. Price has a lot of issues to work through.

How do threads like this help her though? 'Ooh, isn't she a mess, let's all drag her down even further!'.

What's the point in this thread?

So we can all sit and pick over the demise of someone's career and mental health?

So we can just have a good old bitch about someone?

What do you want exactly?

ExtraOnions · 03/04/2024 23:45

…needs better people around her, probably always did

As I said, the press is on her case 24/7 I never read or comment as she needs to be left alone IMO. First time comments about her.

I wish her good luck

She's been through shit loads.

I like her. Yes she's made a lot of mistakes but haven't we all

Not on that scale, no.

Drunk/drug driving is a run of the mill mistake to you?

SirenSays · 03/04/2024 23:58

Poor wee Gareth, I'd forgotten all about him. Where did he end up?

TheMixedGirl · 04/04/2024 00:02

I actually don't mind Katie Price. I quite like her. She is so unapologetic about who she is.

I'll agree the bankruptcies are a bit fucked.

Her exes make snidey comments about her so I don't see the issue?

Did you listen to the podcast? I did I thought it was great fun.

icallitasplodge · 04/04/2024 00:08

I stopped feeling sorry for her when the puppy was crushed in an armchair, and the drink driving, and kids with no seat belts.

Yes she’s had a hard life. Better choices might help her out.

icallitasplodge · 04/04/2024 00:09

Oh and then the other dog got killed didn’t it. She does kill a lot of things when you look at it on paper, so I really hope it’s not an innocent driver she kills next time.

Jessforless · 04/04/2024 00:12

She had such a high point with her reality shows, a lot of public love if I remember rightly, books, merch, perfume. Where did all the money go??

meganorks · 04/04/2024 00:13

I don't think it matters, so long as she's getting attention. That's what she needs.

piefacedClique · 04/04/2024 00:16

Does anyone really give a shit? She’s a fucking mess and an embarrassment. She thrives off ANY publicity… good or bad…. stop feeding the monster! When headlines stop completely and she gets help it will be better for everyone

Eastie77Returns · 04/04/2024 00:25

She seems very devoted to her oldest child.

QueenBitch666 · 04/04/2024 00:27

She should be locked up for killing her animals. She's a fucking lowlife

Apparently she never visits him. Just trots him out for media opportunities.

StormingNorman · 04/04/2024 00:29

I feel really sorry for her. She’s made some bad decisions and hasn’t had a respectful man in her life since Peter Andre. But I keep thinking something must be driving all these poor choices.

Peter Andre was not respectful to her on any level.

Lovethistimeofyear · 04/04/2024 00:35

I didn’t know she killed her animals? Omg 😦

Yes she’s a mess - physically she has had so many procedures done and she looks terrible. She was gorgeous before and it’s sad she felt the need to keep going. I can’t understand why any surgeon or aesthetician would do any procedures on her now - surely it must be bad publicity for them? Plus I would worry about her mental and emotional health too.

Her behaviour over the years has been appalling too, especially the driving offences. That’s just not ok. Be a dick in the privacy of your own home but don’t put other people at risk.

It’s quite sad though to see someone who had so much success, now in such a mess in all aspects of her life. I wouldn’t wish that on anyone.
