Yea I feel sorry for her, how could you not.

Starlight456 · 26/11/2019 19:49

Well hopefully it will stop her having anymore plastic surgery.

No I don’t feel sorry for her. She was threatened with bankruptcy not long ago . I watched the Tv show . Her spending didn’t change.

She could of worked herself out of debt but chose to carry on regardless. I feel sorry for the creditors except those who agreed to more plastic surgery.

I knew she was in trouble years ago when she was pulled for no insurance, and told Plod her staff hadn't renewed her policy. So she was employing incompetent leeches even then.

Dard · 26/11/2019 19:57

She obviously has no one who can help just a string of dead beat exes

@JudeLawswhore hit the nail on the head for me.

I think being in the shitful business of 'being a celebrity' is enough to drive anyone crackers / to drink / drugs / desperation - why anyone wants it is beyond me.

Span1elsRock · 26/11/2019 20:00

Not remotely.

She'll find a way to stay in the public eye, it's her oxygen.

It's the kids in her life I feel desperately sorry for.

Findumdum1 · 26/11/2019 20:02

Its hard for me to feel.sorry for someone who allegedly earned 40 million, probably more like 10 milki6on, but hasn't invested or saved any of it, apparently, and now is bankrupt with no earning power. I think you have to be supremely arrogant not to see that coming and to spend so recklessly.

Sparklingbrook · 26/11/2019 20:03

No I don't. 'Never underestimate the Pricey' sounds a bit hollow now.

I feel sad for her children and her Mum, but it was bad decision after bad decision and sometimes people can't be saved from themselves.

ballsdeep · 26/11/2019 20:03

She doesn't need much of an earning capacity anymore if she had 45million!! What a silly woman

Sagradafamiliar · 26/11/2019 20:03

No. She's had access to the best therapy money can buy, and not even had to pay for it as it's been offered for free, yet she only takes up the free surgery offers.
Meanwhile the poorest people in society have to struggle on endless waiting lists for whatever help there is still to be had on the NHS, or supplement volunteer counselling with their benefits because they want to be better for their children.

RonaldMcDonald · 26/11/2019 20:04

I think the glee shown over her troubles is distressing and built around slut shaming and misogyny in large parts.
I think she is a very damaged person trying wildly to find love and security and only finding exploitative arseholes as friends or lovers
I wish her well

VanyaHargreeves · 26/11/2019 20:09

Its complicated a lot of it is her own doing, but I also think she has definite mental health issues, addiction issues, that have contributed to her downfall.

I am always conflicted with her, sympathy wise as she does come across a being very self involved and self unaware.

Plastictattoo · 26/11/2019 20:11

I'd forgotten about how much she has come undone in recent years until reading about her today. There has been drink driving, driving bans, rehab, her children living away from her, the video of her taking drugs etc. This is so different from just a few years ago. I find it very sad.

AgeLikeWine · 26/11/2019 20:12

Absolutely not. I have zero sympathy for anyone irresponsible
and stupid enough to piss that amount of money up the wall.

Apparently Ms Price likes horses. A spell of working 40 hours a week filling buckets and shovelling shit at her local stables for minimum wage might teach her the value of money.

IHaveBrilloHair · 26/11/2019 20:13

I thought you were going to say she'd died.

Moonmelodies · 26/11/2019 20:13

New book imminent I suspect.

user1497207191 · 26/11/2019 20:15

We could all enjoy a lavish style if we didn't pay our taxes. She should have save her tax money rather than splashed the cash on luxuries she couldn't afford. She's only herself to blame if HMRC have made her bankrupt. I've no sympathy at all.

Sagradafamiliar · 26/11/2019 20:15

Ronald no misogyny from me. I can't and won't tolerate misogynists. KP made her living through misogyny and is frequently spiteful towards other women. Worst of all, she's always trying to flog that shitty 'weight loss' tea, which is aimed at women. Depending on conning people out of their money for an income and knowing that they will end up physically ill, is beyond contempt.

Dard · 26/11/2019 20:15

I think it's very sad and she must be delusional to think she can adopt a baby when obviously struggles to cope already.
Maybe she has always had mental health issues but was ok while money flowing in,I hope she doesn't sink further it must be so hard for her children

She enjoyed the benefits when the times were good, now she has to deal with the consequences of being reckless.

astralweaks · 26/11/2019 20:21

Not at all.

ballsdeep · 26/11/2019 20:21

Another sex tape will pp up soon like the one she had before 🤢

Footballmumto3 · 26/11/2019 20:23

I feel totally sorry for her. To me she comes across as troubled but really lovely. I think she’s a very hard working woman, and has been for her whole career. I have no idea why I have so much affection for the Pricey Grin but I have just always had the feeling she has a heart of gold and needs some people she can trust around.
Bless her.

Jodie77 · 26/11/2019 20:23

I think it's becoming increasingly apparent that she is not a well woman. I feel sorry for anybody who struggles to that extent in their life. I do not think there is much happiness in her life at all.

AlexaAmbidextra · 26/11/2019 20:27

No. She’s had opportunities that most others haven’t and blown them all.
