Katie Price has arrived at the Royal Courts of Justice in London for a hearing related to her bankruptcies following her arrest at Heathrow Airport.

The former glamour model arrived on foot through the main entrance wearing a beige outfit and black head covering on Friday, surrounded by photographers, ahead of a hearing due to start at 2pm.

Ms Price was detained at Heathrow on her return to the UK on Thursday evening, the Metropolitan Police previously said.

The 46-year-old’s arrest came after a warrant was issued by a judge on July 30 over her failure to attend a previous hearing, where she was due to face questions about her finances in a specialist bankruptcy court.

The PA news agency understands Ms Price, who was declared bankrupt in November 2019 and again in March this year, was bailed by an out-of-hours magistrate on Thursday night.

Friday’s hearing before Deputy Insolvency and Companies Court Judge Daniel Schaffer will be held at the Rolls Building, but Ms Price is expected to attend by video link from an office of High Court enforcement staff at the Royal Courts of Justice nearby.
