Katie Price reportedly ‘blew £10,000 in a month on designer clothes and takeaways’ after she was declared bankrupt.
Pals of the former glamour model, 46, claimed she splurged £7,000 during a single visit to Selfridges.
It was also reported that she spent roughly £500 on takeaways including Dominoes pizza and £2,500 on shoes in the same month.
One of Katie’s pals claimed she blew the cash at the end of 2020 – the year after she was declared bankrupt for the first time, owing creditors £3.2 million.
‘Katie is a spendaholic. It’s incredibly worrying. She burns through obscene amounts in one go,’ a source told The Sun.

‘She doesn’t care about blowing cash when she should be paying her debts.’
MailOnline have contacted Katie’s representatives for comment.
The reality star appeared at the Royal Courts of Justice on Friday following her high-profile arrest at Heathrow Airport on Thursday, after failing to attend bankruptcy proceedings.
During the hearing, Deputy Insolvency and Companies Court Judge Daniel Schaffer ordered the model to give an ‘undertaking’ to the court that she would attend a further hearing to face questions over her finances on August 27 at 10.30am.
He said: ‘You have to attend that date, no ifs or buts, no going abroad, no holidays.’
Katie confirmed she understood she must attend and later said: ‘I will move my diary for it.’
Katie’s dramatic arrest came after she skipped a bankruptcy hearing for a £10,000 facelift in Turkey.
She was remanded in custody at a West London police station and bailed a few hours later by an out-of-hours magistrate, ahead of her court appearance on Friday morning.
She turned up on foot through the main entrance wearing a beige outfit and black head covering to conceal her injuries caused by the facelift.

Judge Schaffer discharged the arrest warrant issued against her on July 30 by a different judge after she failed to attend a previous hearing.
The warrant was originally issued by a judge after she failed to attend a hearing relating to her enormous £760,000 debt.
Katie previously said she was ‘not running from matters’, but was ‘away working for a documentary on corrective surgeries’ during the court hearing.
In a now-deleted statement on Instagram, Katie wrote: ‘I am aware that I am about to be detained at the airport which is obviously what the courts feel is necessary.’
‘I do hope of course for my son’s sake who is with me that they will allow some dignity and protection for at least his sake as this will be extremely disturbing for him to see. Whilst I understand the importance and severity of the matter I do feel like I am being treated like a criminal.’
The mother-of-five, who lives in Sussex, failed to appear in front of a judge on July 30 as a part of her £760,000 bankruptcy court proceedings and instead flew to Turkey on holiday for her sixth facelift while staying at a £133-a-night five-star hotel.

Katie was aware she would be detained at the airport but had asked police that they ‘allow some dignity and protection’ for Harvey, claiming it would be ‘extremely disturbing for him to see’.
In a statement posted to Instagram earlier this week, Katie claimed she had been in Turkey filming a documentary.
Discussing her son Harvey, the model asked authorities to ‘allow some dignity and protection for at least his sake as this will be extremely disturbing for him to see’.
While acknowledging the ‘severity’ of the matter, Katie said she was being treated ‘like a criminal’ and declared the ‘unfortunate financial circumstance’ did not make her a ‘criminal or bad person’.
