Apologies I don't know how to post link.
According to the daily mail she's buggered off on holiday to Cyprus with the latest laddo rather than attend a high court trial citing health issues.
How much longer is she going to be allowed to take the piss?.

To those saying she has mental health issues - she doesn't owe £750k to the taxman because of mental health issues. She isn't on holiday with her boyfriend instead of attending court because of mental health issues. I'm tired of mental health issues being used as an excuse for bad behaviour.

I started typing something along these lines but you put it better than I could have.

Re: the comparison to Ant, it's a very different kettle of fish.

Don't forget, in addition to everything everybody has listed, she's also had countless episodes of lewd and crude behaviour, usually on holiday. And check out the Justice for Dads blog on Katie Price if you want to see how depraved she really is.

There will also be many creditors of hers with her two bankruptcies suffering stress and issues from her behaviour. HMRC is just one of the creditors. What about the small businesses and individuals who she hasn’t paid along the way.

Any sympathy that people may have had for her evaporated a long time ago. Actions have consequences and she now needs to be held accountable for her actions. It’s long overdue.

the one thing I will always admire her for is the way she took on Frankie Boyle after he made some awful obscene jokes about Harvey. I think she peaked in the public's estimation around then because she rightly nailed him for it and refused to back down . She came across as being a good mum at that point.

Fair enough, but she does tend to exploit situations, and I do find it irritating when people go on about her being a great Mum.

flapjackfairy · 28/04/2024 21:44

@Bignanna
I agree. She seems to have been on a downward slope for a long time now and her life seems to be one big long car crash now. Sad really but no excuse to flout the law.

Meredusoleil · 28/04/2024 22:05

Forgive me for being ignorant, but how does a person who is bankrupt actually have money to go on not just one holiday abroad, but multiple holidays abroad?

I don't get it. Surely, if it was as easy as that, we would all declare ourselves bankrupt and go swanning off around Europe?

Dollenganger333 · 29/04/2024 03:06

She always says that her ex's take advantage of her, but it's just more lies that come out of her mouth.

Kieran repeatedly cheated on her and Peter Andre really isn't the saint that most people think he is imo. He's now in a relationship with a much younger woman which suggests he likes control.

Well, to be fair 'justice for dads' blog does not sound like impartial information now, does it?

LadyDaisy42 · 29/04/2024 03:33

If she's trying, it's not working very well! Surely anyone else would have been jailed by this time?!

Nagado · 29/04/2024 07:40

Floofydawg · 28/04/2024 14:32

Well thank fuck for that. She has enough kids with enough different dads already.

Are you judging her for being a single mum because the dad fucked off and left her to it? Or are you judging her for having children with men she believed she was happily married to at the time?

Re: the comparison to Ant, it's a very different kettle of fish Bollocks. They both drove over the limit and so both could have killed or seriously injured someone. There’s nothing different in what they did. How is that different? What happened after they made the decision to get behind the wheel is only different because he had a career to salvage and the support of an entire tv channel behind him making sure he said and did the right things. She might have done the same as him if she’d been a family friendly presenter with a prime time tv show.

How have they taken advantage? I find this argument strange. All of her ex's have gone on to have long term, stable relationships... How do you know those relationships are stable? The only reason we know her marriages weren’t stable was because she publicised every single detail of her life. Those men have gone on to be with women who aren’t really in the public eye. Do you think that means that they’ve suddenly become wonderful, kind and caring, faithful partners?

SilkFloss · 29/04/2024 08:56

The "different kettle of fish" comment presumably alludes to the fact that Katie has many, MANY driving convictions, a fair few of which are for Drunk/Drug driving. She is still, reportedly, driving around, despite having no licence or insurance (shown on CCTV recently getting out of the driving seat at a service station, during her latest speeding offence - another case where she didn't turn up for court). Let's just hope that the next time she crashes (and there WILL be a 'next time'), she doesn't kill anyone.
And, Ant was ANNIHILATED in the media (and rightly so). Whether you believe it it to be genuine or not, he nonetheless showed remorse, took his punishment on the chin and has appeared to clean up his act. Katie shrugged hers off, accused (on film) the authorities of "picking on her" and continued to break the law time and time again.

"He's now in a relationship with a much younger woman which suggests he likes control."
Nonsense. Anyone who has met Emily (and I have) or seen her on any of his reels, can see that she is not a pushover and quite likely 'wears the trousers' in that relationship, albeit in a pleasant and calm manner. I actually think he is punching above his weight with her, to be honest, but he must thank his lucky stars every day that he found her after the car-crash relationship he had with Katie. And it was very lucky for Junior and Princess too, that he has been able to demonstrate what it is to be in a mutually loving and respectful relationship and provide a stable and calm home life for them compared to the chaotic shit-show that was life with Katie (before they were removed from her "care").

Dollenganger333 · 29/04/2024 10:15

Oh I agree he's punching above his weight, that's the whole point! Forgive me for not basing my opinions on Instagram reels.

FFs, are you seriously suggesting that she's a poor little feminine thing who couldn't work out that it would be a good idea not to drive after a ban unless she had people to tell her? Let alone that it would not be a good idea not to drink/drug drive? Indeed, do you seriously believe that no-one did point that out to her? No-one can force people to be sensible if they don't want to listen to advice.

What, so you're basing them instead on... what? Where did you get the ridiculous notion that an age gap means someone liking control?

The only reason Katie likes to peddle the notion that Peter (and other partners too, actually) was controlling is because he attempted to persuade her that falling out of nightclubs off her tits was perhaps not the best idea.

neilyoungismyhero · 29/04/2024 10:53

@Itsneverme He never got any backlash at all! This women needs serious help

He did get loads of backlash at the time. As others have said he sought help and sorted himself out unlike KP who just keeps taking the piss out of the system and the men in it.

🤦🏻‍♀️ Yeah, that’s exactly what I’m saying. She’s such a delicate little wallflower that she didn’t realise she needed to be sober and have a licence to drive. She didn’t realise her family were being serious when they told her not to do it. It’s not her fault at all and the mean old police should just leave her alone. 🙄

They are both massive arseholes in my opinion. The point you’ve completely misunderstood is that what he did isn’t mitigated by the fact that he apologised afterwards and hasn’t got caught doing it before or since. He could have killed someone, same as her. Furthermore, he had an awful lot to lose if he didn’t apologise and go to rehab, as well as the support of his employers, his friends and his family. She’s a fading reality celeb whose 15 minutes are almost up and who is clearly so messed up that she is making the most self destructive choices possible. If she’d done it five minutes after coming out of the jungle, when the cash was flowing freely and everyone wanted her to talk about her relationship with that odious little toad and have her on their shows, she’d have probably apologised and gone to rehab as well because she had so much to lose if she didn’t.

Similarly, if Ant Middleton had no career, no real employment prospects, was going bankrupt, had lost custody of his kids, had no significant, rich and sensible network of support, he might not have apologised and gone to rehab either. Who knows?

At this stage, I think jail could be a blessing for her. It would hopefully get her away from drugs and shitty men, at least? Might give her kids a chance at normality with their dads too. Sad

If she's on drugs now then prison will be a disaster for her.

I have no idea how she's allowed to continue driving with so many bans.

zoom1982 · 29/04/2024 11:52

Everythingtoseehere · 27/04/2024 06:03

Jail = new book fodder. She’s said this several times. So yes, probably.

She should be jailed and then made the subject of a gagging order so she can't go peddling her 'story' to the media for money. If only...

SilkFloss · 29/04/2024 12:07

"I have no idea how she's allowed to continue driving with so many bans."
Well she's NOT allowed to be driving. She just does so, regardless. Numerous locals have reported her out on the roads. No action is taken and even when she's caught red-handed, such as the recent one in Northants she neglected to turn up to court first, she was given a fine that she won't pay.

As someone who had worked in prisons, it is easier to get drugs in there for prisoners than out unfortunately

SilkFloss · 29/04/2024 22:06

She was interviewed recently where she said she had "asked to go to prison" (ffs, that's not how it works!) so it would all be over. She seemed under the impression that her debts would be wiped!
Someone needs to tell her that she would still owe millions when she came out.

What I can never get my head around is, when someone like ant or dec (don't know which ones which) crashes his car under the influence everyone was like awwwwe poor man. He never got any backlash at all! This women needs serious help

That's not quite true. Whilst what he did was dreadful he did take responsibility for his actions, apologies publicly, take time out to get himself sorted, and doesn't appear to have repeated the offence. He was also getting a lot of negativity around the time it hustle Ed, and for a while after, and it is still mentioned in media on and off.

However, KP hasn't appeared to do anything to take responsibility for her actions and simply keeps,repeating the same, and other, offences.
