Katie Price breaks silence after finally attending court and making promise to judge
Former glamour model Katie Price has broken her silence after a dramatic 24 hours which saw her getting arrested at an airport and attending a court hearing
Katie Price has asked for kindness as she broke her silence after she appeared in front of a judge at the Royal Courts of Justice, mere hours after she was dramatically arrested at an airport in London.
The 46-year-old glamour model flew back to the UK after undergoing a facelift in Turkey despite there being a warrant out for her arrest. Upon her return to the UK on Thursday, she was arrested and remanded in custody at a West London police station. The star was arrested in front of her eldest son Harvey Price. Katie was bailed last night.
She appeared in court and admitted to the judge that she had no legal representation due to her money woes and said she couldn't 'hear properly or see much'. When the judge told her she would have to attend a further hearing to face questions over her finances on August 27, she promised to attend and added: "I will move my diary for it."

Companies Court Judge Daniel also discharged the arrest warrant issued against her on July 30 by a different judge after she failed to attend a previous hearing. After a dramatic few days, Katie broke her silence and took to her Instagram page to re-post a supportive message shared by Jedward.
Along with a picture of them with Katie, they wrote: "Everyone please be kind to Katie Price. It's a delicate situation and she deserves support and love. Please be sensitive, she's a human and mum with a massive heart and deserves respect. Sending strength to her kids and family."
Another post read: "A true icon that has been through a lot we all need to lift her up in this fragile time! No one else could deal with the pressure and scrutiny! Let's all surround Katie with Love."
Katie found herself on the receiving end of the judge’s sass during her court hearing, as she voiced her desire to attend the next hearing remotely, stating to him: "I find it difficult in court. I have been assessed by another high court." However, Judge Schaffer didn't have time for any of her excuses and told her she needed to make an application to do so and advised her to get legal counsel.
The Mucky Mansion star replied: "Now with the legal advice, I tried to get legal advice but I've been charged £50,000 upfront. Now being in bankruptcy at the moment, the bankruptcy is taking 40 per cent. I'm finding it difficult to do that. I can't get legal aid because I earn."
The judge told her she needed a solicitor which should cost no more than £500. He then added: "This is a discreet application. It doesn't take Einstein to do it."
