Katie Price was seen for the first time since her latest round of surgery as she headed out with her son Harvey in Istanbul on Saturday.
The former glamour model, 46, was seen clutching on to her eldest child’s hand with a heavily bandaged and bruised face.
It was her first outing since she went under the knife in Turkey for her sixth face lift, which cost £10,000.
Revealing her latest surgically enhanced looks, the brunette walked down the street in a pair of oversized sunglasses, which did little to hide the bandages, staples and surgical tape around her face.
Katie kept her head down as she leant onto Harvey for support as she walked along with dried blood around her ears and at the side of her face.

She wore a pair of leopard print trousers and a white crop top, which showcased her tiny figure and vast array of tattoos as she made her way form the car into her hotel.
Katie confirmed she was travelling to Turkey for facial surgery, to be filmed for a new documentary, after failing to attend a recent bankruptcy hearing.
The mum-of-five was absent at a scheduled £760,000 bankruptcy court hearing on Tuesday, having flown overseas for her latest cosmetic procedure.
A warrant has since been issued, with Katie, admitting she’s ‘doing the best she can’ to rectify her financial issues after receiving ‘very clear warnings’ that she needed to attend court.
Katie is understood to be having a facelift at the Trio Clinic in Istanbul, with work being carried out on her eyes and under her chin.
Taking to Instagram on Wednesday, the mother-of-five dismissed recent claims that she has travelled to Turkey after being turned down by other cosmetic surgeons.

Katie also shared a photo as nurses straightened her surgical tights ahead of surgery
She said: ‘I’m filming my new documentary. The reason I’ve chose the Trio Clinic is because I’ve had friends who have had surgery there and in my opinion they are the best for what I want doing.
‘I can’t wait, they’re amazing, and they’re thorough here.’
On Tuesday, Katie shared a statement on her Instagram account saying she is ‘aware of the severity’ of her financial situation.
She wrote: ‘Whilst I’m currently aware of the severity of my current personal financial situation with my ongoing bankruptcy, I am today shocked that whilst away working for a documentary on corrective surgeries that I should find myself yet again headline news.
‘The media in my opinion once again are trying to cause continued humiliation to myself and family. There are far greater and more pressing issues going on around the world that are more important and I’m sure most people are bored reading stories that are constantly misrepresented.
‘I have I am continuing to to cooperate with the relevant people on matters to the best of my ability which will be addressed after my return from work.
‘Despite consistent stories trying to humiliate me on my personal misfortunes, I am neither embarrassed or ashamed. I own my situation and I am trying my best to work my out out of it and put matters right.’
Katie added that she is currently going through ‘challenging times’ and is doing ‘the best I can’ for the sake of her family.

A judge issued the warrant after she failed to appear at her £760,000 bankruptcy court hearing – having seemingly flown abroad
She wrote: ‘I have to continue in my work in order to satisfy these bankruptcy orders which is all I am trying to do right now. I am however not running from matters and will continue to take matters with great seriousness.
‘I am doing the best I cam to rectify things during extremely challenging times. Once again I would like to highlight there are far greater and more news worthy stories.
‘I will continue to work on my mental health disorders for the sake of my self and my family and do the best I can.’
In May, Katie claimed on her own podcast that she has been signed off from appearing in court for her mental health, after receiving backlash for missing her last bankruptcy hearing to go on holiday to Cyprus.
She had been due to give evidence about her finances at the High Court in May, but at the start of the hearing, lawyers said that she had told them at the last minute she couldn’t attend due to health issues. A judge described this excuse as ‘scanty’.
Katie then jetted off on holiday to Ayia Napa with her MAFS star boyfriend JJ Slater , facing public backlash after being spotted sunbathing together by the pool.
Taking to her podcast, The Katie Price Show , Katie hit back and claimed she had been signed off from court because she was ‘mentally not strong enough’.
She said: ‘Everyone is like “oh she’s missed bankruptcy and she’s gone on holiday!” No, let me address it.
‘The court knew that I wasn’t going to my bankruptcy, because mentally – my consultant at The Priory – I’ve been signed off for any kind of activity for court.

Katie wrote: ‘I have to continue in my work in order to statisfy these bankruptcy orders which is all I am trying to do right now’
‘I’m mentally not strong enough at the moment to stand in court, be cross examined in front of the media and public.’
She went on: ‘I am taking my bankruptcy so serious, like I do everything else. It’s a very serious situation I’m in and it does look like “oh she’s just gone on holiday”.
‘No, my head at the moment needs a break. I had four days in my diary where I was able to go away.
‘When I say I’m not mentally able and stable to stand in court at the moment because I have a lot of things going on behind the scenes I’m dealing with.
‘Hence, I haven’t been on TikTok for months, since December, I’m only doing what my body and brain will let me do at the moment.’
She continued: ‘I am taking the bankruptcy seriously. It’s not like I’ve jetted off on a bloody five star holiday. I’m not in a £760 a night hotel.
‘It’s not my fault that my friend came to this hotel a week before me and told them that I was coming and to look after me. So when I came here they upgraded me for nothing, this holiday was actually a very cheap holiday.’
Katie then added that she wouldn’t be going to her next hearing and that she was getting a signed letter to allow her not to appear.
In May, Katie again claimed on her own podcast that she has been signed off from appearing in court for her mental health
She said: ‘There is another court hearing and I won’t be going to that either. I want everyone to know I’ve had a letter from my trustees.
‘Before I went away on holiday I had an hours conversation with my trustees who handle both of my bankruptcies and explained fully my situation. Since then I’ve had a letter from them and a letter from court.
‘[My consultant] has now given a list of things I need to do to discharge me and suspend me from this which has to be signed off by a lawyer.
‘I’m back today, I have the appointments with my consultant, my therapist and everyone around me who will be signing me off legally.’
It comes as Katie appeared to share a snap of herself on a plane munching a sandwich yesterday just hours before her looming court hearing on July 30.
Posting on Instagram, the debt-riddled beauty model shared a picture of her snack, adding: ‘Crisp sandwich is the best.’
It is believed Katie – whose £2million ‘mucky mansion’ was recently repossessed – was joined on the jaunt by pal Lou Anderson.
As entrepreneur and influencer Lou shared the news she was heading to Turkey for a tummy tuck next week, Price seemed to confirm she would be joining her as she replied: ‘Yes girl turkey here we go’
Lou then replied with a series of clapping emojis and wrote: ‘Come on my girl’.

According to The Sun a court official disclosed earlier this week that the case against Price was still listed for 10.30am.
She could now be taken into custody having failed to appear at court.

MailOnline has approached Katie’s representatives for comment.
Insolvency and Companies Court Judge Catherine Burton said Price had received ‘very clear warnings’ that she must attend the hearing on Tuesday.
The former model was due to face questions about her finances in the specialist bankruptcy court in London from barristers representing the trustee of her two bankruptcies.
A judge at a previous hearing said Price risked arrest if she did not attend further court dates, adding evidence must be provided if she could not appear.
Issuing the arrest warrant, Judge Burton said Price had ‘failed to attend today’s hearing’ and had provided no explanation for her absence.
She said: ‘It is in my judgment necessary that the court issue a warrant for Ms Price’s arrest.
Katie was declared bankrupt for a second time in March over an unpaid tax bill of £761,994.05 after first being declared bankrupt in 2019

‘She has no real excuse in failing to attend today’s hearing.’
She continued: ‘The reason for her absence today is irrelevant.’
Judge Burton said that an arrest warrant was not issued ‘lightly’ but that Price had offered only ‘piecemeal co-operation’ and failed to provide the ‘most basic information’ in relation to her bankruptcies.
Price was declared bankrupt for a second time in March over an unpaid tax bill of £761,994.05 after first being declared bankrupt in 2019.
She was then served an eviction notice that ordered her to leave her Mucky Mansion by the end of May and has since moved into a £5,000 per month new Tudor-style property.
However, last week she claimed ‘everything is sorted’ with her second bankruptcy after being evicted from her Sussex bolthole.
Insisting she now knows ‘how to deal with issues,’ the model promised to ‘never hit rock bottom again’ in an interview with Channel 5 News on Monday.
Speaking on the programme, she said: ‘I’m doing really, really good. I’ve learned a lot about myself, a lot about mental health and obviously being diagnosed with the severe ADHD, learnt a lot about that, which I wish I knew years ago.
‘It becomes noise in your head, and then you just can’t cope with it, you think there’s no light at the end of the tunnel and then that caused depression, then a breakdown, suicidal, ended up at the Priory.’
Katie’s latest planned trip comes despite her reportedly being due in court for a £760,000 bankruptcy fight on Tuesday
At a hearing in February, Price was ordered to pay 40 per cent of her monthly income from the adult entertainment website OnlyFans to the trustee for the next three years, in relation to her first bankruptcy.
She was then declared bankrupt for a second time in March due to an unpaid tax bill worth more than £750,000 owed to HM Revenue & Customs.
In October last year, Price said she was ‘fed up’ with being threatened with legal action and would go to prison to be ‘done with it all’.
She was due to face questions on Tuesday related to her finances at a hearing known as a public examination, with barrister Darragh Connell, for the trustee, telling the court in written submissions that there ‘remains significant information missing as regards the bankrupt’s income and asset position’.
Speaking in court, he said the trustee does not ‘have any information as to her whereabouts’, adding that Ms Price ‘would not be kept in custody for a long period of time’, but would be detained to secure her attendance at a future hearing.
He said: ‘Her liberty is on the line, but unfortunately we are at the end of the road in relation to this matter.’
The court heard that Katie had previously made a number of ‘last-minute’ requests for changes to her previous hearings.
Katie pre-surgery in 1995
Katie has since undergone an array of procedures, including rhinoplasty, a silhouette facelift , 3D, veneers, lip fillers and Botox, as well as having breast enhancements
The former model was first declared bankrupt on November 26, 2019, with the first preliminary application issued on January 30, 2020.
‘The hearing of that application came before me at the beginning of lockdown – at the very last moment Ms Price contacted the court to be allowed to attend remotely on the basis that her son was in hospital,’ the judge said.
‘The court acceded to that request.
‘Since that time there have been many other adjournments of that private examination…usually on the basis that Ms Price decided at the last-minute to seek to co-operate with trustees to provide the basic information they’d been trying to obtain from her since she was first made bankrupt in 2019.
‘Latterly adjournments have been purportedly on the basis of ill health; at a hearing before ICC Judge Mullen on 26 April 2024, he noted the inadequacy of the medical evidence.
‘(He) set out a very clear penal notice that if you Katrina Price failed, without reasonable excuse, to attend a public examination at a time and place specified in this order, you are liable to be arrested without further notice.’
The many faces of Katie Price: A look back at star’s changing features
She instantly became a pop culture icon after bursting into the public eye as loudmouthed Page 3 girl, Jordan.
Having tried her hand at modelling, singing, presenting, campaigning and reality TV, the glamour model quickly became a household name in Britain.
Yet while Katie Price‘s moniker will ring a bell for both young and old, you would be forgiven for not recognising the star on sight alone, with Katie famously undergoing numerous cosmetic procedures over the years.
After two decades in the spotlight, Katie is almost unrecognisable from the naturally pretty teenager who burst on to the modelling scene at the age of 16, with her natural curls and fresh-faced beauty winning her an army of fans.
Katie, now 46, has undergone an array of procedures over the years, including rhinoplasty, a silhouette facelift, 3D, veneers, lip fillers and Botox, culminating in her first facelift in 2017.
Now, after two decades under the surgeon’s scalpel, MailOnline takes a look at the many faces of Katie Price.
The many faces of Katie Price: MailOnline takes a look at the star’s changing look after two decades of boob jobs, Botox and face lifts
1995 – Barefaced beauty
At the age of 17, Katie Price was a fresh-faced natural beauty looking to make it into the world of glamour modelling.
At a friend’s suggestion, the teenager had professional photographs taken and was quickly snapped up by a modelling agency who landed her a Page 3 slot in The Sun newspaper the following year, sparking the creation of her glamour model alter ego, Jordan.
Speaking last year, Katie revealed she was glad that she wasn’t exposed to social media at the time as she had ‘no idea what Botox was or fillers’, otherwise she may have started her tweaks and enhancements at an even earlier age.

1998 – First boob job
Having just turned 20, the rising glamour model experienced her first taste of cosmetic surgery, boosting her 32B cup breasts to a 32C.
The procedure cost £4,500 and it’s thought her mum Amy and stepdad Paul helped pay for her to have the procedure.
Katie has since spoken out about her decision to go under the knife, admitting she was ‘too young’ and that she feels sorry for young girls growing up these days in a world of social media and filters.

1999 – Second and third boob job
Despite having only just increased her breast size, Katie opted to have two more procedures the following year at the age of 21.
Katie boosted her bust from a C cup to a D cup and just a few months later went up again to a F cup.
Katie has previously claimed that she has only paid for two of her boob jobs over the course of her career – it is not known if these were the ones.

2001 – Lip fillers
At the age of 21, Katie had her first cosmetic procedure on her face, opting for lip fillers.
While the glamour model did not confirm the rumours at the time, she was seen sporting a noticeably fuller pout while out enjoying the party scene.
Her overall look had also started drastically transforming, with the model sporting dramatic false lashes, bright lipstick and pale hair extensions.

2004 – Botox
Aged 26, Katie began to experiment with Botox injections that relax the muscles in your face to smooth out lines and wrinkles.
She made no secret of her love of the procedure, announcing at the time: ‘I get my forehead and around my eyes Botoxed every six months and I love it. You can’t beat it. It just freezes all the wrinkles and that’s what you want.’
At the time, Katie insisted she would never take things further and have a facelift, explaining: ‘I’d never have a full facelift. I’ve seen what they can do to people and I don’t want to go through that.’

2006 – Fourth boob job
Katie went under the knife yet again to take her F cup breasts up to a G cup.
The glamour model also played around with her overall look and embraced her dark side with a new brunette hairstyle.
She also continued to dabble with fillers and Botox.

2007 – First nose job and veneers
At the age of 29, Katie took her love of surgery to the next level, undergoing rhinoplasty, a chemical peel and treating herself to a £25,000 set of new veneers.
‘Oh my God, it burned like hell!’ she said at the time. ‘The next day I had this hideous red rash on my chin but two days later there wasn’t a single spot left.’
Speaking about her nose job at the time, she admitted to liking her original nose, explaining: ‘I liked my nose before and now. If I had a cupboard with both noses, I would alternate between them!’

2008 – Fifth boob job
Despite gradually increasingly her bust size over the year, Katie fancied a change on her 30th and brought her bra size back down from an F cup to a C cup.
The procedure meant that Katie had returned to the size of her first boob job 10 years prior.
Katie’s changing shape also coincided with the launch of her first clothing line – an equestrian range.

2011 – Sixth boob job
Katie’s smaller chest didn’t last long, and at age 33 she went back under the knife again to boost her bust to an F cup.
Katie also underwent body-contouring treatment and cheek and lip fillers.
The Loose Women panelist admitted that she loved having her cheeks filled to give her a ‘plumper, more youthful look’.

2015 – Seventh and eighth boob job
Just before appearing on Celebrity Big Brother, the reality star had a botched boob reduction that left her with a hole in her breast and an implant protruding from her flesh.
Katie told her shocked housemates: ‘I’ve got no tits anymore. They’ve gone. There’s not even anything there. If you saw what I’m like underneath. The scar’s gone septic. My whole implant was hanging out on New Year’s Day.’
Shortly after leaving the Big Brother house she underwent corrective surgery and had her implants swapped for a D-cup.

2016 – Ninth boob job and tattooed makeup
Despite her surgery horror the year before, Katie was undeterred and flew to a Brussels clinic to go under the knife yet again, this time settling on a 32GG bust.
The reality star also had her eyebrows and lips tattooed, also known as ‘permanent make-up’, explaining that she prefers to go make-up free on a day-to-day basis.
Additionally the star has regular facial treatments, last year sharing a bloodied selfie after having a dermal roller micro-needling treatment, which sees a dermaroller with many tiny needles rolled across into the skin – designed to stimulate cells into regeneration.

2017 – First face lift, new veneers and 10th boob job
Despite insisting she would never have a face lift and could rely on Botox, Katie went back on her word undergoing a ‘Silhouette’ face lift.
The procedure is designed to lift a sagging cheeks and blurred jawline, using ‘sutures’ implanted under the skin to sculpt features.
However, Katie was soon spotted with puffy features, revealing that she suffered an allergic reaction to anesthetic penicillin after having further work on her veneers. She also had her breast implants reduced from 1000ml implants to 795ml.

2018 – Second face lift
Katie claimed her first face lift had been a botched job and went back under the knife the following year aged 40 to correct it.
She said at the time ‘I need to get my face re-corrected after surgeon has totally f**ked my face up’, admitting it had
He agent added: ‘She had the thread and it really quite distorted her look. She got a lot of backlash, a lot of negative press, a lot of trolling, everyone saying she’d taken it too far, when actually it was a job that had not gone to plan.’

2019 – Third face lift, boob job first Brazilian bum lift and 11th boob job
Katie jetted to Turkey to overhaul her entire look with a full body transformation.
The reality star opted for a face, eye and eyelid lift, Brazilian bum lift along with a tummy tuck.
Just three months later she returned to the clinic and opted for another boob job, going back down to a D cup.

2020 – 12th boob job and another set of veneers
Katie returned to Turkey to have another set of veneers and revealed her real teeth had been reduced to stubs as she flashed a smile on her YouTube channel.
The mother-of-five then jetted to Belgium to correct botched surgery on her breasts, saying her surgeon was utterly shocked by the ‘awful’ previous procedure.
Katie said: ‘They looked deformed, they were absolutely awful. That’s the first time I’ve gone to a different surgeon. I had to go back to Frank with my head down, ashamed that I’d been to another clinic.’

2021 – Liposuction, eye and lid lifts and 13th boob job
Amid the Covid pandemic, Katie jetted off to then red-list Turkey for a complete cosmetic surgery overhaul, undergoing full body liposuction, eye and lip lifts, liposuction under her chin, and fat injected into her bum.
The reality star also visited Belgium to have her 13th boob job as well as full body liposuction with bum fat removal.
The plastic surgery – performed by Dr Frank Plovier – came just five days ahead of the glamour model’s sentencing for her shocking drink-drive crash.

2022 – Another brow and eye lift
Katie secretly jetted back to Belgium at the beginning of 2022 for an eye and brow lift and had been concealing her new look with her head in a bandage.
Dr Judy Todd, an aesthetic doctor at Clinica Medica in Glasgow, said: ‘It appears like she’s had a face lift, temporal brow lift, and possibly an upper blepharoplasty.’
It was reported last month that Katie plans to travel to Turkey imminently for yet more plastic surgery, amid claims she wanted to get some tweaks in after being unhappy with her latest work.
Sian Dellar, Brow Specialist and Founder of Sian Dellar Permanent Makeup Clinic, added: ‘Katie’s eyebrows, like the rest of her, have changed lots over the years!
‘Back in the 90’s she had a very thin over plucked brow which was the fashion at the time, and today she has an extremely thick and unnatural looking brow.
‘Currently it seems the face or eye lift that she’s had have pulled her brows outward which looks unnatural and makes the brows appear almost stretched.
‘Of course, as with any enhancement, it’s personal preference but we recommend not going too many shades darker, and keeping the shape as natural looking as possible and work to create or enhance brows to frame the face.
‘Katie’s choice to have them so thick and dark and in that unusual positioning means they dominate her face and are the first thing the eye is drawn to. I would love to see Katie take her brows back to 2015/2016 when the fuller brow became a big trend. She got it right then and they framed her face well.’

2023 – 16th and ‘biggest ever’ boob job
It’s not clear if Katie lost track of the number of breast augmentations or opted to keep some of her surgery private but by 2023 it emerged she’d undergone her 16th boob job, two years after claiming to be on her 13th.
The star went under the knife in a bid to have the ‘biggest in Britain’ and was subsequently pictured being wheeled into surgery at the Be Clinic in Belgium.
She is said to have wanted even bigger breasts, opting for 2120 CC implants in a bid to boost her already large bust size.
Katie told OK! magazine of her boobs: ‘I love them. They healed really quickly and they didn’t hurt at all. That probably doesn’t help. Because I heal quickly, it doesn’t put me off and I have more.
‘I would go bigger as well – and I will eventually. I just love having big boobs and a small body. I’ve always loved that look. In my eyes, if I’m having a boob job, I want them to look fake, I don’t want them to look natural. I don’t like the natural look.
‘I just like that old-school American Playboy pin-up look. When I have surgery, that is what I’m striving for. If I could look like my airbrushed pictures, that would be amazing. But that’s impossible to achieve.’

2024 – MORE facial surgery
In July 2024 Katie confirmed she is travelling to Turkey for facial surgery, to be filmed for a new documentary, after failing to attend a bankruptcy hearing.
The former glamour model was absent at a scheduled £760,000 bankruptcy court hearing having flown overseas for her latest cosmetic procedure.
A warrant was subsequently issued, with Katie admitting she’s ‘doing the best she can’ to rectify her financial issues after receiving ‘very clear warnings’ that she needed to attend court.

The judge said Katie could be held in contempt of court and ‘imprisoned or fined or made subject to other punishment under the law.’
She continued: ‘The judge adjourned a public examination at 10.30am on May 14, however once again very shortly before the adjourned hearing Ms Price decided to co-operate and provide yet more piecemeal information.
‘It was provided so late in the day that the trustee did not have sufficient opportunity to establish whether all the information was present.’
Judge Burton said the court is satisfied Katie ‘can have been in no doubt that today’s public examination was taking place.
‘She informed the trustee staff that she would be attending this hearing remotely.’
But no application for attending the hearing remotely was made, the court heard.
The judge said it was ‘possible for an individual to be discharged from bankruptcy after a year, providing they fully co-operate.
‘Contrary to finding her full co-operation since 2021, Ms Price has failed not only to co-operate and provide the most basic information required of her, but has also now been made a subject of a second bankruptcy order as a result of failure to pay more than £700,000 in taxes,’ the judge told the court.
‘Ms Price is frequently in the press and appears to court press interest in order to make her income.
‘Ms Price in no way delays in seeking the assistance of police and emergency services when there is damage apparently to her property.’
The judge said ‘unlike every other taxpayer’ Price has ‘failed’ to pay her dues.
‘It falls to her to provide detail of income and expenditure,’ Judge Burton said.
‘It was open to her to avoid any publicity in relation to private financial affairs by co-operating with trustees, but failed to do so.’
MailOnline has approached Sussex Police and the Metropolitan Police for comment.
