KATIE Price has revealed bailiffs come to her house all the time – and joked that if she’s jailed, it will be good content for her next book.
The former glamour model, 45, who is facing a bankruptcy court hearing, insisted she encourages debt collectors to help themselves to her possessions as the clear-out would be doing her “a favour”.
Katie claimed her willingness to assist usually confuses the camera-bearing bailiffs, who end up with tea and signed autographs instead of taking pricey items like a quad bike.
She is due to face the music over £3.2million debts and is likely to be asked how much she makes from raunchy online content and any other sources of income like her sales of clothes, so that creditors can be paid off.
Much of the cash was owed to lenders for mortgages secured against her £2.2million Mucky Mansion in West Sussex.
Katie told Daisy May Cooper on her Educating Daisy podcast: “At the moment if I have bailiffs that turn up – because it happens regularly, because if I don’t pay a parking fine or something – this is what I do now and it really p**ses them off.
“I was in Thailand and one came. It was like for £600. And the people doing my horses, I said to them, ‘Just say to them there’s a load of stuff I need to clear out ready for my next Mucky Mansion – go in the container and take what you want.’ They’re not used to hearing that.
“They say, ‘If you can’t pay we take away.’ I say, ‘Please take away whatever – I’ve got furniture and everything.’
“And they don’t want to hear that. They’re like, ‘No, we’ll come back when she’s here.'”
But Katie said she has the same conversation even when she is home to deal with them in person.
She continued: “Then, when they’re there, I’m like, ‘What would you like?’ and I sign a picture for them for their Mrs, or make them a cup of tea.
“I’m like, ‘I’ve got loads of stuff – sell it, take it.’ And they won’t. They just want the money.”
The mum-of-five, once worth £45million and declared bankrupt in 2019, joked: “If they put me into prison it’s another chapter for the book.”
Earlier this year, she avoided being questioned in court when her case was adjourned at the last minute.
Katie is due to face questions about failing to stick to the voluntary repayment agreement of £12,000 a month.
