Katie Price owes vets £3k and is now blacklisted after refusing to pay

Katie Price has been blacklisted by her local vets after refusing to pay a £3,000 bill.

The former model, whos financial struggles have been made public in recent months, visited Sussex Equine Hospital for her pet horses – but has told them she wont be coughing up the giant bill.

A source told the Sun Online, “Katies used the vets for a long time – they were called out when her horse Wallis was ill, and even came out as an emergency when another of her horses had to be put down after he was hit by a car.”

“But now shes informed them she wont be paying up.”

The source continued, “Its a small business and its a lot of money to them. Theyve now blacklisted her and wont answer any of her calls to come to her house, even if its an emergency.”

Katie has been struggling with money woes lately – she only narrowly avoided bankruptcy late last year after borrowing £22k from a friend and is now paying thousands of pounds back each month as part of an IVA agreement.

But one way Katie is planning to earn some extra cash is to sing at funerals for a £5,000 fee.

A source recently revealed, “She will happily pop along to a funeral and sing a couple of songs of choice.”
