Katie Price has opened up about the trauma she has from her Mucky Mansion.

The former model was evicted from her mock Tudor home in May last year after she failed to keep up her payments on the mortgage for the property. Katie had purchased the home from ex Tory peer, Francis Maude, and it even had its own Channel 4 programme as she attempted to renovate the derelict building she once called home.

But after moving out of the once glorious property with sprawling gardens, Katie lashed out and said that it was “cursed” and she had nothing but “bad memories” as she looked to start a fresh in her swanky new home. Now, the 46-year-old has opened up about the home and the trauma she feels when she drives past it.

“Everything is going so well for me”, Katie said, adding: “Moving house, being in this house, it’s the best thing I ever did was move from that house. When I drive past my old house, I get a knot in my stomach, my anxiety, my brain is like a flip chart of all different memories.

” It’s just a trigger for me that, even when I have to drive past that house. I can’t avoid it sometimes from the areas that I go to. “Katie continued:” But it’s weird how a house can torment you mentally, memories, it’s weird. “Having been declared bankrupt for the second time last year, Katie’s Mucky Mansion was sold in December for just £1.5 million in order to pay off her debts.

Last year, before she left Mucky Mansion, sources told that Katie was excited to turn her back on Mucky Mansion. They told The Sun:” Katie has been dreading this day for so long but now it is here, she can’t wait to leave. The house has caused her so much grief and was too much to handle on her own. With work and the kids it all became too much in recent years. And she’s convinced it’s haunted. “

Meanwhile, Katie said:” I absolutely hate the Mucky Mansion, even how it’s been called the Mucky Mansion because of all the stuff that happened there before. I can’t wait to get out of that house I’ve had nothing but bad memories in that house for nine years. I hate the Mucky Mansion, I never want to see it again. New beginnings, new start, reset button, I love it. “

Katie sold Mucky Mansion for £1.15 million, a fraction of the cost it was originally listed for at a whooping £1.35 million. However, Katie didn’t receive a single penny from the sale as she hadn’t owned it at the time. The property which sits on 12 acres of land was Katie’s home for several years.

After she vacated the home, the property was left in a severely neglected state. The grounds became overgrown, the swimming pool water turned green, and cleaners had to clear piles of rubbish and remove abandoned vehicles before it could be listed for sale. Reports claim that over 20 tonnes of waste needed to be cleared to make the property market-ready.

Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright are in a “perfect love bubble” with their new baby daughter as a friend lifted the lid on their new-found bliss.

A friend said her and Mark has “shut up shop and cleared the diary” as they decamped with baby Palma to their Essex mansion.

The baby – named after their Majorcan capital – was born a week ago, and they told only the immediate family circle. A source said: “They wanted to keep the news very private and bask in the glory of a new-born without any distractions without the world knowing. They are in a perfect love bubble with no external noises, and it’s been total and utter bliss”.

A pal said that Michelle had a couple of things in the pipeline but “much further down the line” so she could enjoy being a mum to Palma.

A source added: “It’s such a special time for them both, they are head over heels in love and can’t believe they have created this tiny person. The last week has been utterly wonderful”.

The pair announced the arrival of their daughter with an intimate and tender black and white photo.

Ex-Coronation Street actress Michelle, 37, and former Towie star Mark, 38, were snapped holding hands with tiny Palma Elizabeth. They posted on Instagram: “Together we have a new love to share… Our little girl” followed by a white heart emoji.

Michelle gave birth last Thursday. Mark’s sister Jess wrote: “Most beautiful addition to our family. I finally have a niece and I am so in love”. The couple, who married in 2015, announced the lifechanging news by sharing a pic of themselves on the beach of a Spanish island with Michelle’s baby bump proudly on display.

In a joint post, they wrote in December: “2025 is going to be a special one for us”.

Danny Jones “needs to prove that his wife is his number one priority, via actions not just words”, a relationship expert has warned.

The McFly singer and Maura Higgins, who met on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! last year, hit the headlines earlier this month when they were filmed appearing to kiss at a Brit Awards after party on March 1.

Since then, his wife Georgia Jones has kept a low profile, while there’s also been no word about the footage from Danny, 39, or Maura, 34.

Earlier this week, the singer and his wife broke cover for the first time since the Brits, appearing to confirm that they are still very much together.

According to a relationship expert however, there are four vital things Danny will now need to do in a bid to win back his wife’s trust.

James Preece, dating coach and relationship expert at HeraHaven.com said: “Ultimately Danny needs to prove that his wife is his number one priority – via actions not just words.

” This means constant communication, reassurance and a willingness to make real change.

“Apologies are one thing, but he needs to show her that he understands what he has done and the severity of it”.

Addressing the latest pictures of the pair seen out together, James went on to say their display is “clearly a public show of solidarity”.

“In reality, no matter how they act, whether laughing and joking or cold and distant, they’re going to be judged”, he added.

James additionally urges Danny to cut all contact with Maura moving forward, adding: “The focus needs to be on making his wife the number one priority”.

The singer and Georgia, who was Miss England in 2007, married in 2014 and share seven-year-old son Cooper together.

Fans got a brief insight into their family life during last year’s I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! series when they surprised him in the jungle.

During an emotional moment at the time, he said: “Honestly this place is an amazing place, even though it’s been challenging. It just makes you realise how much you love people and you put stuff into perspective”.

Days later, he was crowned King of the Jungle, while Maura left in sixth place.
