AceShowbiz - Katie Price is facing court again in two weeks on yet another speeding charge. Though managed to escape being jailed on Friday, June 24, the ex-glamour model will have to deal with more legal strife after she was allegedly caught driving over the 60mph speed limit in a BMW close to her so-called "mucky mansion" home in Horsham, West Sussex.
It came after the 43-year-old appeared at Lewes crown court to be sentenced on Friday over a text she sent her ex Kieran Hayler's fiancee in which she branded her a "gutter s**t." She was supposed to appear in court over her latest alleged driving offence two months ago but it was postponed, and she will now answer it in a fortnight.
Alongside being charged with speeding, Price, who was formerly known as Jordan, is accused of failing to give information to police when asked following a driving offence. She is set to appear at Crawley Magistrates' Court on July 5, but the charge means she will not be facing a prison term. The alleged offence came only 11 days after she flipped her car in a drink-drive smash on September 28.
The mother of five, who is engaged to 32-year-old Carl Woods, was also soon back in trouble with the law for flouting a restraining order after shared a "vile and nasty" message aimed at Hayler's fiancee Michelle Penticost. Instead of being handed a prison sentence, Price was given a 18-month community order, 170 hours unpaid work and £1,500 costs.
Price's ex-husband Hayler said he was "incredibly disappointed" after she avoided jail as he had been told she faced five years behind bars over the text. A statement released on behalf of Hayler and Penticost said, "We are incredibly disappointed with the result of today's court hearing. We feel a custodial sentence would have sent the right message to the public given the seriousness of Miss Price's offending."
