Katie Price recently unveiled her latest tattoo, sharing clips of the inking process while opening up about her personal struggles. The 47-year-old former glamour model told fans she was trying to find the motivation to push through the “pain.”
Flaunting a large floral design stretching across her bottom and upper thigh, Katie candidly admitted, “The Price is done,” sparking concern among followers who have recently worried about her noticeably slimmer frame.
In a Snapchat video, Katie Price admitted, “I am using all my strength to get through this, but my body is like, ‘nah, don’t want anymore.’ It’s like running a marathon—you’re done and your legs just give out.” She added, “Trying to motivate myself to get this finished through the pain.”
According to a source speaking to Closer, the 47-year-old has already undergone a series of procedures this year, including a ‘fox eye’ facelift, mini nose lift, brow and eye lift, and lip lift correction. Despite this, Katie reportedly still wants further surgery. Following her doctors’ advice, however, she is determined to gain weight before going ahead with any additional operations.
An insider told Closer that Katie Price has been advised she is too thin for surgery, with doctors warning that any procedures would be unsafe at the moment.
“This isn’t the first time surgeons in the UK have refused to work on her—they say it’s unethical and that she clearly has body dysmorphia. Now even surgeons in Turkey, where she’s had procedures before, won’t take her on as a client anymore,” the source revealed.
The insider added that Katie has told friends she plans to gain weight to undergo the procedures she wants or will continue searching until she finds a surgeon willing to perform them.
Over the past year, the mum-of-five’s noticeable weight loss has sparked concern among family, friends, and fans. Katie, who has previously admitted to struggling with body dysmorphia but denied using weight loss medication, said she doesn’t know the reason behind her drastic weight loss. The changes were significant enough that she sought medical advice and underwent tests.
“First day off and straight to the doctors to find out what’s happened to my weight,” she shared in September. “The reason I’m going to the doctors is because I keep losing weight and I don’t know why.”
Katie Price’s daughter, Princess, 18, has expressed concern over her mother’s frail appearance. “Your legs might snap, Mum!” she warned as Katie tried to cross a balance beam at a playground. An insider previously told Closer that Princess and her brother Junior are “seriously concerned” about their mum’s weight, noting that she often vapes instead of eating. Fans have also commented on Katie’s slender frame, with one writing, “Katie, you look ill. You do not need any further enhancements and please gain some weight,” while another added, “I feel so sorry for this once gorgeous girl. I feel she has lost the plot both physically and mentally.”
The source explained that, despite Princess raising her worries, Katie remains determined to continue her current path. “Princess is worried sick. She says her mum doesn’t listen, understand, or register the word ‘no!’” the insider said.
“She feels like her mum doesn’t care and thinks she knows best—but when it comes to risking her life, Princess believes Katie is being selfish and not thinking about her kids. She desperately wants her mum to stop. Doctors have repeatedly told her she needs to eat. On top of that, Princess has voiced concern over potential complications during surgery, noting that Katie’s over-stretched, thin skin—especially across her bust—is shiny and delicate, which could make stitching extremely difficult and increase the risk of tearing.”
Over the years, Katie has undergone significant cosmetic transformations, including 17 breast surgeries (the most recent just last year), two rhinoplasties, liposuction, a Brazilian bum lift, and facelifts.
An insider told Closer that Katie has become deeply focused on these procedures, describing them as her “drug of choice” due to the attention they bring.
Despite concerns raised by her family members Princess and Junior, Katie reportedly revealed last week that she’s looking for a new look and body. For now, however, she is relying on fillers and Botox for quicker, less invasive enhancements.
