Safety is on Katie Price's priority list as the former glamour model attended one of her live shows closely followed by a new security team.

The 46-year-old recently embarked on a UK tour with her podcast, The Katie Price Show, which she hosts with her younger sister Sophie. "Pricey" has been performing up and down the country for the past month with her most recent performance taking place in Bristol.

In pictures seen by The Sun, security guards scoured the car park at St George's Bristol while Katie, sporting a white crop top and jogging bottoms, was watched closely by her new minders as she stepped into a waiting vehicle after wrapping up her show on Tuesday, May 28. The move follows a harrowing event for the I'm A Celebrity star as she revealed she'd been the target of another vicious attack when an individual poured acid on her Range Rover.

Speaking on her podcast, Katie said: "So, my house is in the middle of nowhere, and I've had nothing but bad luck in that house. It doesn't matter what it is, it's bad luck. I can't wait to get out of it, like I've said on this show."

She added: "Now, what's really scary is, a few months ago, people vandalised my gates, saying you f*****g whore, you s**g, and all of that. I've had lots of incidents, and now my car was parked by my front door and there's other cars parked there. Someone has thrown acid all over my pink Range Rover."

"So I thought, 'acid is serious' and for someone to actually go and buy that quantity, to then think they can go a hundred metres up my driveway in the middle of nowhere and pour that on my car when we're all in bed asleep and I didn't hear anything."

Determined to get to the bottom of things, Katie then announced she'd contacted the police who had promptly urged her to leave her Mucky Mansion - and she needed no further insistence.

After being declared bankrupt for a second time in March, 2024, Katie was due to leave her Horsham, West Sussex, home, where she had been living since 2014, on Wednesday, May 29, and the mum-of-five left a day early as she moved into her new home with Married At First partner JJ Slater.

Katie broke the news while removal trucks swarmed her property as she captioned a picture of her Mucky Mansion: "Due to (an) acid attack on my car at my house, I've now been advised by authorities not to stay at Mucky Mansion anymore."

Despite her financial woes, OK! Magazine reported on Friday, May 31, that Katie will be forking out a staggering £4,995 per month in rent for her new home.
