Katie Price jets off on another trip as court date looms after judge’s stark ‘NO holidays’ warning
KATIE Price has jetted off on another trip as her court date looms - after a judge's stark "no holidays" warning.
The ex-model, 46, posted a pic on Instagram showing her with her mum Amy and daughter Princess on the Isle of Wight.
Katie smiled in a straw hat, designer sunglasses and cream-coloured shirtdress.
She captioned the post: "Three generations. Me, Princess and my mum today."
One fan said: "Absolutely beautiful family, bless you all. Katie, you are truly beautiful in every way."
Last Friday, Katie was warned she would be arrested if she went on holiday instead of turning up for her next court appearance.

The ex-model, 46, appeared at the High Court in London on Friday to face a bankruptcy hearing.
The court appearance came hours after she was detained at Heathrow Airport on Thursday night.
Stepping off a plane, Price was confronted by cops carrying out an arrest warrant.
A High Court judge had issued the warrant after Price failed to show up for a hearing earlier this month.

Instead, she left the UK and flew to Turkey to undergo her sixth facelift procedure.
She wore a head bandage and sunglasses as she arrived at the High Court for a hearing on Friday.
"You have to attend that date, no ifs or buts, no holidays, no going abroad, you have to attend that date.";
The judge warned Price that she faces being nicked again if she fails to comply.
Price confirmed that she understood that she must attend and later added: “I will move my diary for it.”
Judge Schaffer also discharged the arrest warrant issued against her on July 30 by a different judge after she failed to attend a previous hearing.
During today's hearing, Price was also blasted by the judge over claims she had been charged £50,000 to receive legal advice.
Price told the court she wanted to attend the next hearing remotely, adding: “I find it difficult in court. I have been assessed by another high court."
Judge Schaffer told her she must make an application to do so, and that she should seek legal advice.
Price responded: “Now with the legal advice, I tried to get legal advice but I’ve been charged £50,000 up front.
“Now being in a bankruptcy at the moment, the bankruptcy is taking 40 per cent.
“I’m finding it difficult to do that. I can’t get even legal aid because I earn.”
The judge told her she simply needed a solicitor which should cost no more than £500.
He then snapped: “This is a discreet application. It doesn’t take Einstein to do it.”
Price had earlier arrived at court surrounded by photographers for the 2pm hearing.
The hearing was held at the Rolls Building, but Price attended via a video link from an office of High Court enforcement staff at the Royal Courts of Justice.
She had been remanded in custody to appear following her arrest on Thursday night.
But Price was granted bail in the middle of the night by an out-of-hours magistrate.
It came just days after she had undergone £10,000 worth of surgery on her eyes and under her chin in Istanbul after her usual surgeon refused to carry out the work for her.
And despite being aware of the arrest warrant, Price was seen enjoying her holiday as she soaked up sun at a five-star hotel.
A source previously revealed Katie extended her trip over fears she would be arrested with staples in her face following the surgery.
They told The Sun: “Katie’s actually extending her holiday and plans to stay in Turkey longer.
“She’s worried she’ll be arrested at the airport when she lands back in the UK and will have to go to jail before the metal staples are taken out of her face.
“She’s really worried she’ll be arrested in front of Harvey, and that would upset her.
“She’s better off hiding out in Turkey and recovering there.”
Price herself acknowledged she would be arrested upon her return to the UK from holiday.
In a statement begging for son Harvey’s “protection”, she said: “I am aware that I am about to be detained at the airport which is obviously what the courts feel is necessary.
“I do hope of course for my son’s sake who is with me that they will allow some dignity and protection for at least his sake.”
Price added: “This will be extremely disturbing for him to see.
“Whilst I understand the importance and severity of the matter I do feel like I am being treated like a criminal.”
Price was declared bankrupt in November 2019 and again in March this year.
