KATIE Price has claimed she’ll work as an ESCORT to pay off her double bankruptcy and new surgery bills.
The former glamour model, 46, was due to appear in front of a judge on Tuesday morning as part of her £760,000 bankruptcy fight but failed to turn up.
Instead, she jetted on holiday to Turkey with her MAFS star boyfriend JJ Slater, 31, for her sixth facelift.
But, while she seems to be at rock bottom with her finances, Katie seems to have a surprise plan up her sleeve.
In her latest autobiography, This Is Me, she wrote: “Bankruptcy doesn’t hold the same fear now I can see a way out of it. If material stuff is taken from me, I know I can earn it back.
“I will get into escorting if I need to, not to sleep with the men, just for company. To be on their arm. I think I’d be good at that.
“My mum would tell me I need to work on my table manners first though. And by the way, that is a joke.”
After missing the bankruptcy hearing for a second time, a warrant was issued for her arrest.
The Sun previously revealed Katie flew to Turkey to undergo £10k worth of plastic surgery and she’s in no rush to get back to the UK.
Pals of Katie claim she isn’t bothered about what’s happening and is planning to enjoy her holiday, and may even extend it.
A friend of Katie said: “Katie has been telling people that she doesn’t care if she goes to jail, she thinks it’ll just be like the time she spent in The Priory.
“She thinks she’ll finally be able to get some peace and quiet while she’s away from everyone, and could even make some money out of it too.
“She reckons she’ll be able to cash in because everyone will want to know all about it, either through another TV show or book.
“Katie’s even boasted about being a ‘good jailbird’, which seems a bit tasteless.
“But really, she doesn’t think that it will ever happen. It’s all a bit of bravado, she thinks she’s untouchable.”
Katie was due in court on Tuesday to answer questions about her finances.
But Katie has been busy abroad.
The star has insisted that she does plan to enjoy her holiday in Turkey, despite missing court and a warrant being issued for her arrest.
Sharing a snap of her eldest son, Harvey, on Instagram, Katie said: “Going to enjoy my holiday work trip filming with Harvey Price.”
The Sun can reveal that the former model is having surgery on her eyes and under her chin in Istanbul after her usual surgeon refused to complete the work.
And despite being wanted back in the UK, Katie is said to be ‘in no rush’ to return home.
An insider said: “Katie was determined to change her face again and when her usual clinic in Brussels said no, she made new arrangements.
“Katie has no intention to face the music back in the UK any time soon and is even thinking about extending the trip.
