Katie Price has once again enjoyed a break from her court-assigned stint in The Priory, as she enjoyed an afternoon of retail therapy on Tuesday.
The reality star, who was ordered to enter rehab by a judge following her alcohol-fuelled car crash last month, was seen heading to a nail salon and a nearby café in a casual white jumper and grey tracksuit bottoms.
Katie crashed her BMW while double the drink-drive limit after leaving her home to allegedly hunt for drugs during an all-night alcohol and cocaine bender in August, and was subsequently arrested before pleading guilty in court. Her case has been deferred until December so she can receive treatment in rehab.
Katie’s sighting comes just hours after it was reported that her ex-husband Peter Andre has told his legal team to contact the former model over her claims he has no interest in keeping in touch with his former stepson Harvey.

In recent days fans have also been given a glimpse of Katie’s upcoming book Harvey and Me: A Mother’s Love, which sees the star reflect on raising her eldest son as a single parent.
But her ex-husband Peter has reportedly called in lawyers over claims she has made in the memoir, particularly about his relationship with Harvey.
According to The Sun, the singer, 48, has told his legal team to get in touch with the former model, 43, after she claimed he had ‘no interest’ in staying in touch with former stepson Harvey.
Legal battle: Peter’s lawyers are said to have sent legal letters to Katie along with evidence following the claims
Woes: Katie is facing jail after pleading guilty to a slew of motoring offences and has checked into The Priory rehabilitation clinic to treat her drink and drug problems
Drama: The star crashed her BMW while double the drink-drive limit after leaving her home to allegedly hunt for drugs during an all-night alcohol and cocaine bender which came after she rowed with Carl
How do you plead? She then admitted charges of drink-driving, driving while disqualified and driving without insurance at Crawley Magistrates’ Court
Peter’s lawyers are said to have sent legal letters to Katie along with evidence following the claims.
A source said: ‘Pete is a great dad – he was devastated to be blocked from seeing Harvey and begged to see him more and more.
‘He’s tried on hundreds of occasions to see him. Pete is sick of Katie’s lies and being dragged into her life again.
‘He doesn’t want her talking about him. He doesn’t talk about her, she needs to stop talking about him.’
In her book, Katie writes that Harvey was upset when she and Peter split and even mentioning the singer’s name around her son ‘stresses him out’.
The couple, who are parents to Junior, 16, and Princess, 14, split in 2009 and Peter has since remarried wife Emily and has welcomed two more children, Amelia, seven, and Theo, five.
In 2009, Peter was given compensation and a public apology from Katie following an interview she gave to Heat magazine.
Peter sued for defamation after Katie falsely claimed he had cheated on her and did not genuinely care for Harvey.
Katie is facing jail after pleading guilty to a slew of motoring offences and has checked into The Priory rehabilitation clinic to treat her drink and drug problems.
The star crashed her BMW while double the drink-drive limit after leaving her home to allegedly hunt for drugs during an all-night alcohol and cocaine bender which came after she rowed with Carl.
She then admitted charges of drink-driving, driving while disqualified and driving without insurance at Crawley Magistrates’ Court.
She could face prison after being charged with driving while unfit to drive through drink, using a motor vehicle on a public place without third-party insurance and driving while disqualified.
Katie was told that her sentencing had been deferred for 11 weeks until December 15 to allow her to have treatment at The Priory and speak to the probation service.
Chair of the bench Julie Hutton told her she could leave but warned her against driving in the interim, saying: ‘You are free to go and good luck at the Priory.’
The troubled star is mum to Junior, 16, and Princess, 14, who she shares with Peter Andre, as well as Jett, 8, and Bunny, 7, with ex-husband Kieran Hayler and Harvey, 18, with Dwight Yorke.
Police were called to Katie’s Essex home at around 1.30am on August 23, where a man was arrested on suspicion of assault, theft and coercive and controlling behaviour.
Katie was taken to hospital and was pictured the following day with bruises to her face and an injured lip.
Katie said she was attacked as she watched TV – forcing her to flee in terror to her son Harvey’s nearby home.
In a two minute clip, Carl said: ‘I’ve not been on Instagram for a long, long time, and let me tell you this past month has been one of the roughest of my life. Never, ever, ever have I felt so low.
‘I had to go into hiding and shut down. If I wasn’t a stronger person in the head it would absolutely have defeated me.’
He added: ‘Everyone just remember who I am and all the things I did at the start when I first came onto the scene, that’s all I can say.
‘I’m a good fella and I’ve always been a good fella and always will be a good fella.
‘Anyone who thinks anything different of me, when you know the truth and I’m allowed to tell the truth, you’ll be eating your words.
‘I just hope everyone who had the balls to abuse me has the balls to say ‘look, do you know what, I’m sorry’. That is what I ask, because I’ve screenshotted every single one of you.’
Concluding the video, he said: ‘I have never and would never, ever do a thing to hurt Katie, never.’
Neighbours said they heard ‘loads of shouting and screaming’ on the night the model was rushed to hospital following the assault.
One neighbour told MailOnline: ‘There was something kicking off because I heard loads of shouting and screaming. It was definitely going off.
‘It was anti social and sounded like a load of p***heads coming back from the pub. There was a real kerfuffle.
‘Then I saw a car parked across the road for ages. Around half an hour after that I heard loads of talking.
‘I came downstairs to see what was going, but I don’t know what time it was because I didn’t have my phone with me. I didn’t see or hear any cops. I didn’t see any blue lights.’
Essex Police said at the time: ‘A 32 year-old man arrested following reports of an assault on August 23 has been rebailed until later this week.’
In August, shortly after her attack, Katie reportedly told friends she ‘cannot face’ the prospect of a court appearance.
Friends of the mother-of-five reportedly told the Sun that she is ‘mentally fragile’ and ‘cannot face’ a court appearance.
Friends reportedly say it has left Katie in a ‘nightmare situation’ and could result in the case being dropped.
Deferred: Katie was told that her sentencing had been deferred for 11 weeks until December 15 to allow her to have treatment at The Priory and speak to the probation service
Arrested: Police were called to Katie’s Essex home at around 1.30am on August 23, where a man was arrested on suspicion of assault, theft and coercive and controlling behaviour
Fragile: In August, shortly after her attack, Katie reportedly told friends she ‘cannot face’ the prospect of a court appearance
The friend told the paper at the time: ‘She (Katie) absolutely stands by her account of events of that night given to police, but upon reflection isn’t sure she’s mentally strong enough to go through yet another court appearance.
‘She doesn’t want to be dragged through the mill, and her private life scrutinised by all and sundry. Katie doesn’t see any other way out.’
A police spokesman said: ‘We have a duty of care to gather all evidence relating to this case and our inquiries continue.’

Katie Price has finally apologised for the drink-fuelled car crash that left fans terrified for her health – and said she has ‘taken full responsibility for her actions’.
The former glamour model, 43, flipped her BMW on its side on a country lane near her home in West Sussex in September.
In the aftermath of the shocking it was revealed that Katie was drunk at the wheel and had made a dash ‘for more drugs after an all-night binge’.
Cocaine was also found in her wrecked car.
Katie Price has apologised for the drink-fuelled car crash that left fans terrified for her health – and said she has ‘taken full responsibility for her actions’
The mother-of-five admitted to driving whilst disqualified as well as driving without insurance because of being disqualified for two years in October 2019. It is the sixth time she has been banned.
A statement given by her family to the Sunday Mirror read: ‘Kate acknowledges and takes full responsibility for her actions. She knows they were wrong and apologises. Kate is deeply loved and she loves her family.
‘We are all there for her right now – and her children, who she loves dearly, are giving her strength as a mum.’
The statement is likely to be seized upon by fans as a comfort following fears for Katie’s future after she reached a new low.
The star has since checked into The Priory rehabilitation clinic to treat her drink and drug problems.

According to The Sun, Katie’s fiancé Carl Woods has been ‘a frequent visitor’. MailOnline has reached out to Katie’s representatives for comment.
Although it is alleged the hunt for drugs during an all-night alcohol and cocaine bender came after she rowed with Carl, the pair looked worlds away from their troubles as stepped out for a date night at Alec’s Restaurant in Brentford, Essex, yesterday.
In late September, Katie pleaded guilty at Crawley Magistrates’ Court to three charges of drink driving, driving whilst disqualified and driving without insurance.
But prosecutors dropped a drug-driving charge in light of her guilty drink-driving plea. It came one day after family and friends rallied round her following her arrest.
Price, from Horsham, West Sussex, who was already banned from driving, flipped her car on a country road at 6.20am near West Grinstead, close to her home.

After being rescued by a local resident, Price was arrested on suspicion of driving while above the legal limit for alcohol and drugs – and tested positive for cocaine.
The model told police: ‘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.’
Price could still face jail when she is sentenced in December. The model has no driving licence after being disqualified for two years in October 2019 – and has been banned from the roads six times in total.
The three charges were using a motor vehicle on a public place without third party insurance; driving while unfit to drive through drink; and driving while disqualified. Price had been taken to hospital but is not thought to have been badly injured.
Price was told that her sentencing had been deferred for 11 weeks until December 15 to allow her to have treatment at The Priory and speak to the probation service.
Chair of the bench Julie Hutton told her she could leave but warned her against driving in the interim, saying: ‘You are free to go and good luck at the Priory.’
Ms Hutton then handed Price an interim driving ban, warning her: ‘We regularly send people to prison for driving whilst disqualified.’
Price left the court with a blanket over her head and wearing pink slippers, with her father Paul Price who drove her away in a blue Fiat 500 as she ducked in the seat.
