Katie Price is quitting vaping after getting addicted to the smoking alternative

Like many, the former glamour model has become addicted to the cigarette alternative and has decided to throw out the "horrible thing".

Katie is adamant she has the "strength to get rid of them" and is encouraging anyone else using them to join her.

Speaking to her followers on her Instagram Story, she said: "I have a big confession to make. If there's anyone out there who wants to join me, do it.

"I have been vaping for a year it's no good for you."

Referring to her mum Amy's health battle, she continued: "Especially when my mum has had her lung transplant it's disrespectful doing this in front of my mum. I have decided today is the day I am throwing this chemical battery, addictive, horrible thing away.

"I am now doing vapes no more from today. I have got the strength to get rid of them, join me!"

Showing herself clearing out all her vapes, she added: "That's it in the bin, I have cleared all my vapes out the cars everything."

Katie ditching the bad habit comes after her bankruptcy case was adjourned until next month.

The 46-year-old star - who was arrested on her return from Turkey to London's Heathrow Airport earlier this month after failing to attend a hearing on 30 July - was due to face questions from barristers in a specialist bankruptcy court on Tuesday (27.08.24) but her lawyer, Bertie Boer-Roberts, requested she be able to attend a "private interview" in September instead.

The barrister cited her "mental well-being" as one of the reasons behind having the case heard behind closed doors, noting Katie had "long been subject to extreme media scrutiny" and this would be exacerbated by public examination of her financial affairs.

The lawyer said his client would be able to give "more considered answers" in a private interview and felt it would be useful to "take stock of a complex matter with a long history."

He also stressed Katie "understands her duties" and had "been compliant" with the case so far.

However, Judge Nicholas Briggs admitted he was hesitant to agree and said: "My concern is we've been here before".

He then asked lawyers for both sides to discuss details out of the courtroom and on return, both Mr. Boer-Roberts and Darragh Connell, the barrister for the trustee, agreed to Katie attending a private interview on 24 September, before a potential personal examination on 11 February, if deemed necessary.

The judge told the former 'Loose Women' star: "If you fail to comply with the undertaking you will be at risk of being arrested."

As she left the London court building, Katie - who was previously declared bankrupt in 2019 and then again in March this year over an unpaid tax bill of over £750,000 - blasted assembled media.

She raged: “I hope you reporters write a good story today, won’t you, all the bull**** that you write, scumbags."

Katie was previously ordered to pay 40 per cent of her monthly income from OnlyFans until February 2027, and have six of her vehicles delivered to the trustee to help pay off the money she owes.
