Katie Price’s former home, Mucky Mansion, appears to have been broken into by TikTokers, who filmed their findings for a social media video. 

The former glamour model was evicted from the Sussex property in June after being forced to declare bankruptcy for a second time for owing HMRC up to £760,000 in tax bills and other fees.

Katie, 46, initially denied rumours she was being kicked out of the home, which she purchased for £1.35 million in October 2014, however soon before her eviction date, she confirmed the news on social media. 

In an Instagram post, the Celebrity Big Brother star claimed she had to leave her home due to a recent acid attack on the property. 

Days later, mover vans were spotted at the once luxurious property, which was listed for  £1.5m

Now, the mother of five has been dealt another blow after TikTokers, who go under the account name Side Quest Exploring, broke into her former home and filmed their findings.

In two short teaser videos posted to the account, which explores abandoned properties in the UK, the creators could be seen walking around the back of the property.

A full video showing their findings has not yet been released.

A comment made by the account under one of the videos read: ‘Looks like it’s recently been sold off via auction, would you let your property get into the kind of disrepair?’

Jordan Masterson805 hit back at the comment, writing: ‘If you have lived on a farm you would know things get ruined easy there old old places mine!!’

The account replied: ‘Fair comment but it’s clear basic upkeep has been overlooked to be honest.”

Many users of the video and photo sharing platform were quick to share their thoughts on the state of the house, with Beaugill158 writing: ‘She ruined a lovely house’.

Claire Bennett added: ‘What a state such a mess’.

However not everyone thought the house was beyond saving. One user, lukef86, admitted: ‘I don’t find it that bad just needs abit of tlc and a nice family to love it.’

It was announced earlier this month that the 19-bedroom property, which Katie renovated as part of her Channel 4 documentary Katie Price’s Mucky Mansion, has been sold. 

Estate agents HJ Burt & Son were transparent when selling the property, noting damage to walls and kitchen units and a ‘low to moderate’ contamination risk.

However, the sale brochure stated that it has the potential to become an ‘impressive family house’ for prospective buyers.

‘Offering the opportunity for refurbishment to potentially create an impressive family house with mature grounds including potential reinstatement of the tennis court and swimming pool and enhancements of the paddock and land.’

Despite the 10-acre grounds looking neglected with overgrown lawns and green water in the swimming pool, the estate agency confirmed on August 12 that they had received an offer. 

Katie will not receive any money from the sale, as the proceeds will go towards paying off her significant debts, which she has accumulated over the years. 

Speaking to The Sun, a source said: ‘Despite all the problems with the place, the asking price was a steal and priced to sell.

‘Katie won’t be benefiting, however, as all the proceeds will go to pay off the mortgages she had leveraged on the place.’

The star reportedly owes an unpaid tax bill of £761,994.05, which sparked this latest bankruptcy saga.

It comes after Katie was arrested at Heathrow Airport earlier this month when she returned from Turkey where she underwent a £10,000 facelift despite a warrant being issued for her arrest on July 30.

Appearing in court the following day, a judge at the hearing that there would be ‘no ifs, no buts’ and she must attend a ‘public examination’ on August 27.
