She’s recently set up a new eBay shop, which she has called the Katie Price Family Shop,where she’s attempting to sell her kids’ old clothes – with limited success.
And after reports that she’s already splashed out £6,000 on Christmas decorations for the kids, Katie’s nearest and dearest have apparently imposed an ‘allowance’ – like in her early fame days – to help her curb her spending.
"Katie is so generous and loves treating the kids and can't resist what she sees as a bargain. But if you buy lots of bargains, it all adds up,” a source told The Sun.
"So now, she's given an allowance for the week and can only spend over the total when she gets it approved by her team."
