Why has Katie Price been declared bankrupt?

Katie came close to being declared bankrupt last year after amassing a debt of £22,000, but she managed to narrowly avoid it after taking out an individual voluntary arrangement (IVA) to pay back the money owed in installments.

The agreement meant that Katie was supposed to pay £12,000 every month for four years to her creditors in order to try and pay off the rising debt.
