Katie Price has opened up about losing her home

The former glamour model - who was declared bankrupt for a second time in March - was slapped with an eviction notice from her 'Mucky Mansion' in West Sussex and has since moved out and she has now suggested she was forced out because trespassers made a huge mess on her land and she didn't want to pay the huge bill to clear it up.

Speaking to The Sun newspaper, Katie explained: "The eviction came from a guy who flip tipped on my land and the council and the mortgage people gave me two years to clear the fly-tipping.

"It would have cost me £800,000 to do it and it was a police investigation and I thought 'do you know what, I don't want to do it, it's not going to add value to the house'.

"So it was a question of, I can either give the keys back and they can sell the house and whatever they sell it for at the market value then I get what's left."

Katie previously admitted she was looking forward to a fresh start in a new home because she was tired of living with "bad memories".

According to the Mail Online, Katie said: "I absolutely hate the Mucky Mansion, even how it's been called the Mucky Mansion because of all the stuff that happened there before.

"I can't wait to get out of that house I've had nothing but bad memories in that house for nine years. I hate the Mucky Mansion, I never want to see it again and I can't wait to move into my new place, I am so excited. New beginnings, new start, reset button, I love it.

"But don't worry, I'll be featuring my new house on my YouTube channel when I get the keys and welcoming you to my new house, I can't wait, I just want to get rid of all the bad stuff in the past and have a fresh start."

Katie bought the mansion in 2014 from Conservative Party politician Francis Maude in 2014 for a reported £1.35m.
