Katie Price appeared all smiles as she posed alongside her beloved horse, despite facing serious health issues. The 46-year-old former glamour model has been candid about her struggles, admitting that she might need a mobility scooter due to ongoing pain in her feet.
She candidly revealed how she is set to see a surgeon and is considering investing in a pink scooter to help her get around without pain. Recently, she shared a touching photo with her horse, Wallis, who is 22 years old now, calling him her “heart horse” and a crucial source of comfort and companionship during these challenging times. She captioned the photo: “Nothing better than horses.”
Fans were quick to compliment the star on the snap, with one person writing: “Beautiful.” Another person related saying: “So true. My girl is getting me through the death of my son.” A third person added: “@katieprice always naturally happy around horses.”
Price, who has owned many horses in the past, has had Wallis since he was 8 years old, describing him as her “sidekick through thick and thin.” She has previously shown appreciation to her horse with a loving post saying in August, saying: “I’ve been riding horses since I was 7 and I’ve had Wallis since he was 8 he is now nearly 22, horses our my life and passion.”
Last year it was also reported that bailiffs had taken her precious Wallis and her other horse after the star was declared bankrupt. A source told the Sun: “They haven’t been seen for a while now and they said they have been telling people they have been taken as part of HMRC’s action to try and get back money.”
Katie has opened up about her ongoing health struggles, revealing the impact it’s having on her daily life. In October, the star was spotted in a wheelchair with a bandaged foot in Cyprus, while boyfriend JJ Slater pushed her around. She previously broke bones in both of her feet after falling from a 25-foot wall during a break in Turkey in 2020, and underwent multiple surgeries in a bid to fix the damage
Speaking about her issues, Price shared: “Because if I have to walk far, my feet hurt, and I’ve got to see the surgeon in May,” she shared. “I don’t know who’s irritating me or if I need more cortisol, but I won’t know until May.”
She continued, “If I do Alton Towers or something like that, sometimes my feet play up when it’s a lot of walking. Doing this panto, although it’s good, at night my feet are creaky.”
