How did Katie Price break her feet?

The mum-of-five broke her feet falling from a concrete wall at a theme park while on holiday in Turkey in August 2020.

The damage was so severe that it took an eight-hour operation to fuse the bones in her feet back together.

Before going into surgery, Katie said: "They're smashed, broken and it's bad, really bad,"

"It's bad, life changing injuries I've done, so they're just going to do their best."

What has Katie Price said about it?

Explaining how the accident happened, Katie said: "We were just all mucking about.

"It was just a small wall which had flowers on top and I thought it was the same height the other side — but it was a 25ft drop.

"I landed on my feet and it was like cement. I tried to get up and I couldn’t. Then this pain just hit my legs and I’m screaming, ‘My legs! My legs!’"
