Katie Price is so desperate to sell her so-called ‘mucky mansion’, she has decided to enlist the help of boyfriend Kris Boyson and his friend to help her to renovate it.
The 41-year-old is said to be stripping down the mansion’s walls and removing the decor, as well as painting everything in neutral colours, in an attempt to sell the £2million Sussex pad.
And the costs of the makeover have ‘spiralled out of control’, leaving the former glamour model fearing she will not be able to afford it, according to reports.
‘Katie’s house makeover costs have spiralled out of control and have ended up as way more than she expected,’ a source claimed.
‘She’s worried she won’t have the funds to finish it off, and really wants the house to be sorted out.’
The insider hinted Katie thinks selling the house ‘will be the best option’ after plans to turn it into a wedding venue have fallen through.
And her partner Kris is said to be by her side, with his pals helping her fix the house.
‘Kris has got a friend around to paint the walls and make it look a bit better,’ they added to The Sun. ‘He’s been in there while they were away as Katie’s sick of it looking like a building site.
Katie previously shocked fans after she showed them a guided tour around the mansion in a video uploaded to her YouTube channel.
As she panned the camera around the different rooms, piles of clothes and cluttter could be seen spewed across the floor, as she revealed she was attempting to clear the house out.
She later stated that she was not currently living in the mansion and ‘something had gone wrong’ while it was being cleared out.
‘My house… Everyone is calling it “mucky mansion,”’ she said.
‘Yes, because I’m not living in my house. It’s empty. I’m doing stuff to it and something has gone wrong.
‘I’ll explain that in due course. I have builders inside my house, my post gets moved here, there and everywhere.’
Metro.co.uk has contacted Katie’s reps for a comment.
