Reality star Katie Price joins ‘Pinocchio’ as a fairy while facing a £750k tax debt and court date.

Katie Price has secured another theatrical role, stepping back into pantomime just as she battles ongoing financial woes. The 46-year-old reality star, who recently starred as an Ugly Sister in Cinderella, will now take on the role of a fairy in Pinocchio, sharing the part with Casualty actress Amanda Henderson.

The news was confirmed by producers via Instagram, where they welcomed Price to the cast. She will join EastEnders legend Bobby Davro, who plays Stromboli, alongside panto regulars Ryan Greaves, Kate Salmon, and Phyl Harries. The production kicks off in Northwich at the end of March, with additional performances in Sevenoaks, Clacton, and Northampton.

Despite her recent financial struggles, Price’s return to the stage could prove lucrative. Reports suggest she may earn a five-figure sum for her participation—similar to her previous pantomime stint. However, the payday may not be enough to solve her mounting money troubles.

Price has been declared bankrupt twice, first in 2019 over unpaid debts and again more recently. Though two of her bankruptcies were discharged following a hearing at a specialist court in London, she still faces a staggering £750,000 tax bill. Her legal battle is far from over, as she is set to appear in court on April 8 to address her unresolved financial obligations.

Once a dominant force in the reality TV world, Price’s career has taken numerous twists and turns, from modelling and business ventures to launching an OnlyFans page. While some see her move back to the stage as a strategic comeback, others question whether it’s a desperate attempt to stay afloat amid ongoing financial and legal troubles.

With her court date looming and the Easter panto tour ahead, Katie Price is once again in the spotlight—this time, both on and off the stage. Whether this latest role marks a fresh start or just another chapter in her turbulent career remains to be seen.
