Katie Price is seen for the first time since it was revealed she’s being evicted from her Mucky Mansion as the bankrupt star heads to her live show with boyfriend JJ Slater
Katie Price has come forward for the first time since it was revealed she was evicted from her Mucky Mansion.
Despite insisting she will not be evicted from her Sussex home, the star was informed by lawyers earlier this month that she would have to leave the property on May 29 after two eviction notices appeared on her home.
Katie brushed off her recent woes as she headed to her podcast’s final live performance at The Glee Club in Birmingham.
Just hours earlier, the star had taken to Instagram to score even more tickets after the 400-person venue failed to sell out.
With her outfit in hand, Katie was joined by her boyfriend JJ Slater as she prepared for the final stop of her nationwide tour.

Katie has been open about her financial troubles, revealing on Monday that she is having a “yard sale” as she begins cleaning out her Mucky Mansion amid her bankruptcy woes.
She was informed by lawyers earlier this month that she would have to leave the property in Dial Post, West Sussex, by May 29 after two eviction notices appeared on her home.
Katie shared a video on Instagram on Monday showing a huge pile of items in her living room that she wanted to sell, including a dismantled couch, a futon and a mirror.
The mother-of-five was declared bankrupt for a second time after failing to pay more than £750,000 in unpaid tax, putting her home at risk unless HMRC can get the money back.
The video Katie shared on Monday also showed piles of boxes in the house.
And photos taken on Saturday revealed huge piles of rubbish in the property’s garden, with the mansion looking dirtier than it had ever been.
Photos show the star’s home strewn with piles of rubbish and old furniture.
The grounds of the property are also overgrown, while Katie’s infamous pink Range Rover can be seen in the aerial photos, as well as several other cars.
The star wore a white sweater and blue sweatpants as she made her way to the event

The debris on the property appears to be a mixture of garbage bags, old clothing, a computer screen and even a family photo.
Katie’s Mucky Mansion has been causing the star trouble for years and last October she struggled to rent out the house because it was ‘moldy’ and ‘haunted’.
Earlier this month it was announced that Katie would be evicted from the property.
The first eviction letter, dated April 24, showed that “the eviction will take place on May 29, 2024 at 10 a.m.”
The Horsham County Court eviction notice, addressed to Katie and ‘all other residents’, instructs her ‘to arrange for her to leave the property with [her] assets prior to this time and date’.
A spokesperson for the star has denied that she will be evicted at the end of this month.
In a statement to The Sun on Sunday evening, they said: ‘Kate will not be evicted on May 29’, but would not confirm or deny that Katie would be evicted.
The TV personality paid £1.35million in October 2014 for the property in Horsham, West Sussex, which boasts around 12.25 hectares of land, a swimming pool, tennis courts, stables and paddocks.
But the house subsequently fell into disrepair, leading to her 2022 Channel 4 show, Katie Price’s Mucky Mansion, in which Katie attempted to renovate the 19-room property.
In 2022, her ex-fiancée Carl Woods used the garden as a car plaza for his used car sales business, prior to the last update on the house.
Despite the legal notices, Katie insists she is not being evicted from her home, as she told listeners the latest episode of her podcast The Katie Price Show: ‘My house is not foreclosed.
“I’m not going to be deported and I’m not going to live in a caravan, but if I had to live in a caravan, you know what the travelers have, I would love that.
“I’ll also make an announcement on the 28th, keep it coming.”
Katie recently claimed she should avoid appearing in court again due to her mental health, after being criticized for missing her final bankruptcy hearing in April to holiday in Cyprus with Married At First Sight’s British star JJ.
She had been due to testify at the Supreme Court about her finances, but at the start of the hearing, lawyers said she told them at the last minute that she could not attend due to health problems. A judge described this excuse as ‘scanty’.
Katie then jetted off on holiday to Ayia Napa with her MAFS star boyfriend, where she faced public backlash after being spotted sunbathing by the pool together.
Earlier this month it was revealed that the former glamor model had reportedly been informed by lawyers that she would have to leave the property
On her podcast, The Katie Price Show, Katie hit back, claiming she was signed off the court because she wasn’t ‘mentally strong enough’.
She said: ‘Everyone says, ‘Oh, she missed her bankruptcy and went on holiday!’ No, let me discuss it…
‘The court knew I wouldn’t go bankrupt because I was mentally – my adviser at The Priory – signed off from any activity before the court.
She continued, “I take my bankruptcy so seriously, just like everything else. It’s a very serious situation I’m in and it’s like ‘oh, she’s just on holiday’…
‘No, my head needs rest right now. I had four days in my calendar when I could go away. When I say that right now I am not mentally fit and stable to be in court because there are a lot of things happening behind the scenes that I have to deal with…
“I am not mentally strong enough at this time to appear in court and be cross-examined before the media and the public.”
The court heard that Katie’s personal assistant had sent a statement from a psychiatrist saying she was suffering from anxiety and depression, as well as other problems affecting her mental health.
Lawyers for the trustees in Katie’s first bankruptcy asked the judge to order her attendance at a future hearing, saying she should be “notified” that she could be arrested if she did not attend.
