Katie Price and her eighth fiancé Carl Woods are reportedly planning to get married as early as next month as it’s claimed she could be in prison by Christmas.

Katie recently spent time in celebrity rehab facility The Priory following her arrest over a major car accident while under the influence and subsequent ban from driving in September.

While she recently had mandatory treatment at The Priory, her full sentencing will take place on December 15th and, according to an insider, she’s determined to become Carl’s wife before she potentially serves time behind bars.

“She’s in a huge rush to get married before the court date - she was planning for a winter wedding anyway, but she’s determined to tie the knot as soon as possible,” they said.

Following “a really difficult period” in her life, as argued by Katie’s lawyer Joe Harrington, the judge agreed to postpone sentencing to allow Katie to receive treatment but warned, “We regularly send people to prison for driving whilst disqualified.”

Speaking to The Sun, the source continued, “She’s told Carl she wants to be Mrs Woods as soon as possible so it’s full steam ahead on the wedding plans.”

After his smash hit 'Out of Your Mind' with Victoria Beckham (who Katie reportedly had a feud with) Dane went a bit quiet on the music scene. Fast forward to 2013 and he reformed with Another Level for The Big Reunion. More recently, Dane has been linked to Love Island star Laura Anderson, who he apparently ended up cheating on. He must have been out of his mind #sorrynotsorry

Matt married an actress and model called Rachael in 2016. Bizarrely, his photos have also been used in quite a few catfishing incidents. But Katie recently started following Matt on Instagram - what can this mean?

The nation watched Peter Andre fall for Katie's charms on I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! in 2004.

Before meeting Katie, Alex starred in Sliding Doors with Gwyneth Paltrow (OK, so it was a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment). After they split, Alex went on to star in Celebrity Big Brother and he continues to fight. He's been married to Nikki Manashe since 2013. Most recently, he has been involved in a sex tape allegation - claiming that Katie showed a group of people a video of him performing a sex act. Will the drama ever end? (We hope not.)

It looked like Katie had a good thing going with Kieran Hayler and their two kids, Jett and Bunny. But Kieran had to go and ruin it by cheating on Katie with her nanny, two best friends (while she was pregnant), then again with a 19-year-old shop assistant. Katie kept taking him backbut she FINALLY called it quits in May 2018.

Kris is still posting insanely buff topless selfies (keep 'em coming, Kris) and his personal training business is thriving. After his split from Katie, he began dating Katie's former pal Bianca Gascoigne, much to Katie's dismay. The couple moved in together within days due to lockdown but split after nearly a year together, citing their hectic work schedules.

Carl Woods - 2020

Could it be fourth time lucky? After months of speculation, Katie and Carl confirmed their engagement in April 2021.

A Sussex police statement at the time of the incident said, “Police responded to reports of a single-vehicle collision on the B2135 near Partridge Green around 6.20am on Tuesday (September 28).”

They continued, “A woman, 43, was arrested on suspicion of driving while above the legal limit for alcohol and drugs, and has been taken to hospital to be checked over.

“The road was blocked temporarily while recovery of the vehicle was arranged.”

The crash and Katie’s subsequent hospitalisation prompted Katie’s mum and sister to release a statement on social media asking the public to “recognise Katie is unwell”.

They explained, “As a family we have for some time been concerned about Kate's wellbeing and overall mental health. Today our worst fears nearly came true. As a family we have been and will continue to help Kate get the help she needs. We hope that she will realise that she cannot battle her issues alone.”

Last month, Katie’s close friend Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace told Closer, “I was devastated when I heard about the crash. My initial reaction was that I hope she’s OK and that nobody else was hurt. I felt a sense of desperation that this will be the ‘thing’ that finally helps her. It will have been a roller-coaster for the children – to hear their mum was in an accident would have been awful. Katie is such a strong mum and she plays a huge role in their lives. They would have been terrified. They need their mum, and Harvey especially really needs her – he responds to her better than anyone.

“I know the kids will be at the forefront of Katie’s mind and, if anything is going to motivate her to change, it will be the children, and her family. That nobody, including herself, was harmed is a miracle. It could have been a different story – she was lucky. I just hope she takes some time out away from the limelight and gets rid of any toxic people in her life. She’s struggled for so long – I’m desperate for this to be her wake-up call.”
