Katie Price could be left homeless as she faces having to move out of her rental property. The former glamour model turned TV star has been extremely open about her living situations in the past, having been forced to give up her Mucky Mansion home due to mounting debts.
Now, the 47-year-old currently resides in a mock Tudor style, four-bedroomed property in Sussex, where she has lived for eight months. Katie rents the home for around £5,000 per month. But now, Katie has opened up about her future in the property and admits she’s come to a crossroads.
Despite claiming to rake in a fortune from her lucrative adult subscription page and brand deals, Katie has said she’s struggling to find a guarantor so she can rent a new house.

“I was supposed to have this place for about two years,” she said of her current home, before adding: “The guy who owns it – such a nice guy – he let me have the place even though I didn’t have a guarantor.
“And I’ve been on time with all the payments, as you should, bills and everything. But now he wants to sell it.” Speaking on her podcast, The Katie Price Show with sister Sophie, Katie continued: “It p****s me off. Some houses I look at, I can’t get a guarantor. Some people don’t earn money like me to be a guarantor.
“One house I do want, the landlord wants six months’ rent up front in case I miss a payment and he also wants a guarantor – even though I’ve got the best reference ever from this guy. It’s so annoying. Because that guy has read the papers and that, I get judged on it. It’s so annoying.”

Sophie attempted to clear the air with Katie, explaining: “Nowadays with renting they are asking for more, it is more competitive.” But Katie, who has never shied away from her struggles revealed: “The truth is people don’t realise I got into all that bankruptcy stuff not because I didn’t want to pay but because I had a breakdown.”
The TV star has been declared bankrupt on two occasions, firstly in November 2019 and the second in March 2024. Both of which, were discharged. Her former home, Mucky Mansion, which she purchased in 2014 from Francis Maude was put up for sale in December after she was evicted due to financial troubles.

Earlier this month, Katie explained she had started to look for a new house on Rightmove after being informed her landlord wanted to sell the home. She commented: “I’ve got to move house as the guy who owns it wants to sell the house now. So, I’ve got to go on the house hunt again.
“I might go closer to the kids’ school. I am gonna talk to the guy, he might let me stay there a bit longer but he might not.” However, if she can’t stay, Katie is eager to move closer to her children’s schools.
In December, she finally found a buyer for Mucky Mansion after she cut the price on two occasions. The home was initially listed for £1.5million, before being lowered to £1.35 million.
However the star, who was evicted after failing to pay the mortgage, later lowered it to £1.15 million. But she didn’t see a penny from the sale as it was taken to cover the debts she had owed.
