Police were pictured gathering outside the home of Katie Price’s fiancé Carl Woods, after she was allegedly attacked.

The 43-year-old was taken to hospital in the early hours of this morning, following an alleged incident at a property in Essex.

A man was later arrested on suspicion of assault, and remains in custody.

The mum-of-five sustained facial injuries in the incident, but has yet to speak out publicly.

Earlier today, two police cars were seen parked outside of his home.

At one point, an officer was pictured making his way down the drive.
