Holiday-makers reportedly complained about Price "bleeding" while she was swimming

Katie Price has been making headlines since a warrant was issued for her arrest last week, which culminated in her being arrested at Heathrow Airport on Thursday night.

The former glamour model jetted off to Turkey with her boyfriend JJ Slater, missing a scheduled court appearance in the process. However, holiday-goers at the same hotel as her reportedly complained about Price, arguing she had "ruined" their holiday.


Price had undergone a £10,000 facelift while in Turkey, and when she appeared in court on Friday she was wearing facial bandages covering her cheeks as she recovered from the procedure.

The 46-year-old had a warrant issued for her arrest last week after she failed to show up to a bankruptcy hearing. The TV personality was declared bankrupt in late 2019 and once again in March of this year over an unpaid tax bill of £761,994.05.

During her trip to sunny Turkey though, it seems the procedure she had undergone left guests at her hotel feeling like their trip was "ruined".

The Star reports Price was seen relaxing by her hotel pool sunbathing as she kept her face covered from the sun, hiding her head under a towel.

However, according to the publication, guests later complained that Price's face was seeping with blood during her swims in the pool.

Fuming over the situation, some of them reportedly took to TripAdvisor to make their feelings known. One complained: "We're here at the moment and couldn't fault this wonderful hotel until an infamous British celebrity and her entourage arrived and our opinion changed dramatically.

"Who wants to relax and dine at a hotel looking at someone with blood all over their face, staples holding their scalp on and incisions weeping with pus," reports The Star.

The guest continued: "Oh and she used the swimming pool as well... I'm not sure this hotel should be used as a recovery facility for plastic surgery. It's certainly put me off both visiting again and recommending it to anyone."

It comes after Price appeared in court on Friday, where judge Daniel Schaffer made clear that there would be "no ifs, no buts" in regard to her attendance at a "public examination" on August 27 after the reality star arrived at the Royal Courts of Justice in London.

She appeared via a video call from a room in the building as the judge went on to detail the terms of her release from custody.

He explained: "You have to attend that date, no ifs or buts, no going abroad, no holidays," reports Metro. The court heard how Price informed the judge she had "no legal representation" and that she finds it "difficult in court".

The publication reports Price had stated she "tried to get legal advice but I've been charged £50,000 upfront."

She continued: "Obviously I pay 40 per cent of what I earn during bankruptcy and they want me to pay tax and VAT – it doesn’t leave me with money to pay £50,000 upfront for legal representation.

"I'm finding it difficult. I can’t get legal aid as I earn – I don't know what to do." In response, the judge commented that Price would need a solicitor which should cost no more than £500. He added: "This is a discreet application, it doesn't take Einstein to do it."

Referencing her Turkey trip, the judge later asked Price to confirm her attendance for the August date, to which the mother-of-five replied: "I'll move my diary for it," adding: "This is obviously important."

Beginning the hearing, the judge stated: "What I’m going to do is read the undertakings to you so as to enable you to be released from custody today.

"These undertakings are undertakings to the court so if you break any of them you will be brought back into custody. This is a serious matter. Do you understand?"

Price confirmed she understood before asking if she could attend via Zoom, stating: "Am I able to do it via Zoom? Or in a side room? I don't think you guys have seen my assessment. I find it difficult in court."

GB News has contacted Price's representatives for a comment.
