Katie Price supports herself with blinged-up pink zimmer frame as she boxes up Surrey home with boyfriend Carl Woods
Katie Price might have to rely on using a zimmer frame to get around these days, but that doesn’t mean she won’t be doing so in style.
The former glamour model, 42, was seen packing up her rented Surrey home with boyfriend Carl Woods and was seen supporting herself with one very blinged-up zimmer frame.
Forced to use the walking aid to help her get around after breaking both her feet in a freak accident last year, Katie clearly decided to make the frame a little more her and had it personalised with pink gems.
We’d expect nothing less, after all Katie did exactly the same with her wheelchair not too long ago – decking it out with pink covers and her initials plastered across the back in shiny rhinestones.
Now she’s using a frame to support her as she gets more confident on her feet and her sparkly medical equipment even matched her outfit, as she got to work prepping for her big move.
Katie was spotted outside her house, rocking her natural shorter hair and a baby pink Louis Vuitton tracksuit and silver gilet.
Unable to get involved with the heavy lifting herself, Katie was seen overseeing the operation as her boyfriend Carl loaded up the removal van, including portrait prints of Katie and framed copies of her books – all while sporting a cast on his arm.
Carl was recently rushed to hospital after injuring his hand in a gym accident. It’s claimed the former Love Island star had accidentally slipped causing a heavy dumbbell to fall on him.
He was forced to spend the night in A&E, with a source telling The Sun: ‘This is the worst possible situation for the pair – they’re now both struggling with severe injuries.
‘Carl has broken three bones in his hand and has had to have his whole arm put into plaster and is now facing an operation to get it fixed.’
The insider added: ‘It’s just typical of Katie’s bad luck at the moment that his hand is out of action while she’s recovering from breaking her feet.’
While on holiday in Turkey, Katie injured her feet in major 20ft fall while visiting a theme park. She was forced to undergo six-hour surgery on her return to the UK and has been warned by doctors that it could take up to two years for her to recover fully.
Determined to beat her injuries, however, Katie has already been seen taking her first steps and walking again – although she’s revealed she is now considered ‘disabled for life’.
Speaking on Steph’s Packed Lunch, where she vowed to run the marathon for a third time, Katie said: ‘Mentally, when you’re told you’ve got a life-changing injury – I’m told I can’t run again – I am going to be determined. You’ve got to get up and try and make the effort.
‘I’ve proved I’m determined. To be told I’m in a wheelchair and told I can’t walk for 18-months – I’m already walking… because I’m determined. I don’t want to sit there.’
Her move comes after Katie sent fans into a frenzy by hinting she could be pregnant again with her sixth child.
Katie took to Instagram with a photo of her holding her stomach and cryptically teased: ‘Happy and healthy ❤️❤️❤️❤️ it’s the best feeling ever. I thank @carljwoods for being part of me x.’
Carl did nothing to dispel the rumours and had re-shared Katie’s post to his Instagram story.
The couple have previously shared their plans to have a baby together and hinted they were trying, earlier this year, as Katie revealed she was taking vitamins to help with pregnancy.
Former I’m A Celebrity star Katie had previously said in a YouTube video shared last year that she would be delighted if she was to fall pregnant.
She said: ‘Basically, we do want a baby and we’re not being careful… if I am, then brilliant.’
Katie is already mum to five children; teenage son Harvey, son Junior, 15, and daughter Princess, 13, who she shares with ex Peter Andre and son Jett, seven, and daughter Bunny, six, from her previous marriage to Kieran Hayler.
