Troubled Katie Price’s friends say she’s adamant she’ll avoid prison over drink-drive smash

TROUBLED Katie Price’s pals say she is in denial about her court hearing this week and has told them defiantly: “I won’t be going down.”

The ex-glamour model, 43, who admitted drink-driving while suspended and without insurance in September, is due back before magistrates on Wednesday.

Her sentencing was delayed to allow her to seek rehab treatment at The Priory, which she has completed.

And close friends say she is now adamant she will avoid prison and is getting ready for a family Christmas.

The reality TV star is said to believe her mum Amy’s battle with lung disease and son Harvey’s ­disability will help her avoid jail.

One pal said: “She is happily planning Christmas. All of her plans for next year are intact. Some of those close to her are worried she is in denial about the situation she is in. When she is asked, her response is that she has been to The Priory, and they will let her off because her family — Amy and Harvey — need her.

“But the crimes she has admitted are serious and some are concerned she is burying her head in the sand.”

Katie has also refused to cancel a January press launch for baby ­clothing range Little Pricey and is developing plans for the next phase of her Equestrian range.


The mum of five is even planning a trip to Las Vegas early next year.

And she spent this week in ­Brussels having cosmetic surgery to remove her bum implants, as well as a new liposuction procedure.

She also tested positive for cocaine. She admitted the three driving ­charges at Crawley magistrates.
