Katie Price’s Mucky Mansion hit by ‘smelly’ septic tank leak

KATIE Price’s Mucky Mansion has been hit by a smelly issue that’s left it stinking.

It was confirmed in May that Katie, 44, had landed a second series of My Mucky Mansion after the first saw her attempt to renovate her £1.3m Sussex home.

But now she’s got to sort out a smelly septic tank on the grounds of her house.

An insider said:  “Katie’s been having issues with the tank for years and it’s been blocked with old make-up wipes and baby wipes.

“It got to the stage where it’s overflowing and leaking out – during the heatwave it was so smelly the neighbours could smell it a couple of houses over.

“It was supposed to be replaced in 2020 but nothing has been done – a company did come to clear it but it quickly went wrong again. It’s backed up and oozing out and it’s really disgusting.”

Earlier this month the production company were forced to call in professional de-clutterers.

Filming stopped as they sorted through piles old clothes and free gifts Katie has been sent since the last series.

And it’s not just the inside which is a concern, new aerial images of the star’s Sussex home show the swimming pool half filled with slimy green water.

Rubble fills the other half, with a broken slide lying on its side on the grubby paving stones that surround it.

To one side of Katie’s house, mounds of fly-tipped rubbish have also been piled up on a disused area of hardstanding tarmac.

There is a skip on the main driveway outside the huge property, but it is full to the brim with junk.

When C4’s crew moved in previously, Katie made over daughter Princess’s and son Jett’s bedrooms, and her mum Amy – who is suffering from an incurable lung condition – designed a special ‘garden room’ for her daughter to remember her by. 

Katie also paid tribute to her fiance Carl Woods with a huge neon sign in the hallway spelling out ‘PriceyWoods’. 

Speaking on ITV’s Lorraine, Katie revealed plans for series two and said: “We’ve only done four rooms so far, there’s eleven bedrooms there, all the other rooms. Everyone loved it, I wanna do my bedroom!”

A rep for Katie denied the claims and a rep for Channel 4 said: “Filming is happening today” on the makeover show.
