At a hearing this morning it emerged that Price made almost £95,000 on TikTok between March and May this year.

Barrister Darragh Connell requested an order be made where Price would be required to pay trustees 40 per cent of the earnings.

The order was granted by Judge Catherine Burton, who remarked she was “concerned” after Price missed the hearing.

The reality star is set to appear at the High Court’s Rolls Building on August 27 for a “public examination”, it was heard.

Under the terms of a previous order, Katie pays 40 per cent of her monthly OnlyFans income to wipe her debts.

She was also served an eviction notice which ordered her to leave her £2million Mucky Mansion as bailiffs circled.

Katie, 46, already landed in trouble after skipping a previous hearing on July 30 and instead jetted to Turkey for surgery.

As she landed back at Heathrow Airport she was detained by cops carrying out an arrest warrant.

After she was issued another court date, Judge Schaffer told her: “You have to attend that date, no ifs or buts, no holidays, no going abroad, you have to attend that date.”

The judge then warned Katie that she faces being nicked again if she fails to comply.

She confirmed that she understood that she must attend and later added: “I will move my diary for it.”

Judge Schaffer also discharged the arrest warrant issued against her on July 30 by a different judge after she failed to attend a previous hearing.

During the hearing, Katie was also blasted by the judge over claims she had been charged £50,000 to receive legal advice.

She had said she wanted to attend the next hearing remotely, saying: “I find it difficult in court. I have been assessed by another high court.”

Judge Schaffer told her she must make an application to do so, and that she should seek legal advice.

Price responded: “Now with the legal advice, I tried to get legal advice but I’ve been charged £50,000 up front.

“Now being in a bankruptcy at the moment, the bankruptcy is taking 40 per cent.

“I’m finding it difficult to do that. I can’t get even legal aid because I earn.”

The judge told her she simply needed a solicitor which should cost no more than £500.

He then snapped: “This is a discreet application. It doesn’t take Einstein to do it.”

Judge Catherine Burton previously said Price had failed to make the payments ordered by the court.

She was ordered to pay a one-off payment of £25,000 followed by monthly instalments of £12,500.

Judge Burton said: “They have not received any funds or explanation. She agreed to pay it and did not.

“She remains immediately obliged to pay £25,000.”
