CAR CLASH
Katie Price hit by MORE money woes as ex demands she pay him back missing £4,500 for pink car
Katie was absent for another court hearing this morning
KATIE Price's ex-fiancé Carl Woods is fighting to recover £4,500 he lent her to buy her pink Range Rover.
The twice bankrupt 46-year-old bought back the flashy car in 2023 for £16,000 - seven years after initially buying it for £75,000.

Carl helped her track down the motor, which was repossessed in 2019 when she was first declared bankrupt, and helped her meet its price tag.
However, the couple split soon after and Carl has yet to receive the money he put towards the car.
Earlier this year, he attempted to get money transferred to him.
A source: "Carl really felt like he was being mugged off and accused Katie of spending like there's no tomorrow. "

However another source added: “As far as she is concerned, the car was a gift.
“Carl messaged Katie to say it would be delivered, and was his gift to her, so to read that he now wants money is a bit baffling.”
Katie showed off her flashy 4x4 over the weekend after getting new brakes fitted, despite having an unpaid tax bill of £760,000.
Back in May the car was slapped with a parking ticket while Katie and boyfriend JJ Slater were out in London.

A judge previously ordered Katie to hand over her six cars - a Volkswagen Beetle, a Nissan, two Range Rovers, Suzuki Vitara and Infiniti FX50.
She was arrested earlier this month after skipping a bankruptcy hearing in order to have a £10,000 facelift in Turkey.
Katie Price's New Video Leak Reveals Cheating Allegations
Despite promising to attend future hearings, today Katie missed another court date leaving the judge "concerned" as she was ordered to pay back almost £40,000 she made on TikTok.
At the hearing it emerged that Katie made almost £95,000 on TikTok between March and May this year.
Barrister Darragh Connell requested an order be made where Katie's income from TikTok is suspended.
He is also seeking that the reality star be required to pay trustees 40 per cent of the earnings from videos.
The suspension was granted by Judge Catherine Burton, who remarked she was "concerned" after Katie failed to attend.
She ordered that Katie's income from the social media app is halted while investigations into the amount continue.

Judge Burton said: "The 3rd Respondent does not appear to be in attendance at today's hearing.
"However, the proposed draft order provides that she may apply to court to vary or set aside this order within seven days of service upon her.

"I have been content on the evidence previously seen that it is appropriate for the court to divert a percentage of Ms Price's income from payments to her trustees in bankruptcy, I consider that this is an appropriate order for the court to make."
