Appearing at Crawley Magistrates' Court this afternoon, Katie pleaded guilty and was told that her sentencing had been deferred until December 15 to allow her to have treatment at the Priory Centre and to speak to the probation service.

She could still face jail when she is sentenced in December. Katie has no driving licence after being disqualified for two years in October 2019 - and has been banned from the roads six times in total.

According to Mail Online, the model told police at the scene, “I was just going to my friend's house. I know I shouldn't. I've been banned four times. I took drugs. I should not be driving. I admit it all.’

Chair of the bench Julie Hutton told her she could leave but warned her against driving, saying,“You are free to go and good luck at the Priory.”

All new mums should also remember that dogs can easily get jealous of new babies."But Peaches hit back.

Poor Katie. She went into the Celebrity Big Brother house to make friends – and it looked like she did.

I mean, God bless her, she can't really sing, can she? But I've said to her that I'll get her in the studio and make it sound good."Unsurprisingly, Katie was NOT impressed with his catty comments. She said: "I did a favour for @kavana_official by appearing in his music video as a favour when he asked by NEVER discussed going a duet with his and this is something that will NEVER happen as infact I'm in the studio recording my own tracks solo [sic]."

It all began after Katie denied sending Chris any flirty messages after he said he was ignoring her.Things took a turn for the worse when Chris posted text messages she had sent him but it wasn't long before she hinted she has over 50 screenshots of private messages he sent her.Just when we thought things couldn't get any more juicier The Sun then verified that Chris HAD sent the mum-of-five private messages (even though he originally denied ever doing so). Pricey then went one step further and flashed one of those secret messages.Eek!

Katie’s defendant, Joe Harrington, told the court that this was an “one-off incident” and that “quite a lot going on in this lady's life, a really difficult period.”

A Sussex Police spokeswoman said on Tuesday, "Police responded to reports of a single-vehicle collision on the B2135 near Partridge Green around 6.20am on Tuesday (September 28).

"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."

Katie’s loved ones have released statements showing their support, with her fiancé Carl Woods saying, “Relationships are tested, people test each other – but when you love someone like I love Katie, you enjoy the highs and good times together, and that bond is tested during the low and difficult times together.

"Katie is a rough diamond. She has her imperfections however they make her perfect to me, she just needs that extra help to be polished.

"The sunlight will shine through her once again and the sparkles that she brings to everyone will return.

"I love you Katie 100%. My Dolly, always here, always will be.”

Katie’s family released their own statement on her Instagram page.

The post read, “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. We would kindly ask that the media and wider public give Kate the time and space she needs to seek the necessary treatment, so she can hopefully return to the Kate we know and love as a mother, daughter and sister.”
