Saddle up, guys, because Katie Price is feeling bridle! According to insiders, the former glamour model isn’t letting her recent run of bad press – not to mention her surgery scars and potential bankruptcy – get in the way of love.
Instead, she’s lifting her spirits and putting plans in place to say “I do” yet again – this time, in her horse stables – to on/off beau Kris Boyson.
But there are just a few snags in her plans for a dream day – she’s still legally married to Kieran Hayler. Oh, and she’s broke.
“Katie has been looking at ideas for another wedding, but at a seriously cut-down price,” says an insider close to the star, who’s been married three times and had countless vow renewals.
“She can’t afford anything fancy, but she’s convinced she can still make it special. She’s decided to have the reception at her so-called ‘mucky mansion’ and is planning to use the outdoor stables for the ceremony.”
Ironically, Katie, 41, and Kris’ relationship is anything but stable.

5 of 7Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger
Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger got engaged after just two months of dating. But are they as loved up as they seem? The strict rules they live by - including no partying at nightclubs or drinking when apart - seem to be causing problems. She has also been spotted in LA without her wedding ring.
6 of 7Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom
Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom met in August 2009 at a party she threw for Odom's LA Lakers teammate Ron Artest. They married just one month later. There have been many rumours of Lamar having a crack cocaine addiction that have put a huge strain on their marriage. Last December, after four years of marriage, Khloe finally decided that enough was enough and filed for divorce.
7 of 7Katie Price and Kieran Hayler
Katie Price and Kieran Hayler married in the Bahamas on 16th January 2013 after he proposed on Christmas Day less than a month earlier - and they'd only met in November. In summer 2013 their first child, Jett Riviera, was born. Katie then accused her third husband in May 2014 of cheating on her with her former best friend Jane Pountney, just days after announcing she was expecting their second child.
The volatile pair only just rekindled their year-long romance, after Katie dumped the personal trainer over the summer for toyboy Charles Drury (who subsequently graded her a one-out-of-ten in bed in a newspaper).
Meanwhile, despite splitting from Kieran in May last year, she’s still not finalised their divorce – with money being an ongoing issue.
And with Katie due in court before Christmas to find out whether she’ll be made bankrupt after failing to pay off her creditors, it’s unlikely that will change any time soon.

But instead of attempting to sort out her finances, we’re told the mum of five is distracting herself with wedding planning – and attempting to mask the smell of horse dung.
“She’s saying that some fairy lights and flowers will spruce the stables up nicely, but it smells of manure – she’s been looking into getting scented candles to hide the stench,” says our source, who adds, “For the dress, she wants it to be a tribute to her past looks – she’s planning to customise some of her old wedding dresses."

"She can’t afford catering and she’s putting a ‘bring your own bottle’ stamp on the invitation, as she has no intention of providing free booze."
"She’s even looking to see if she can get a registrar who will do it free for the exposure, but, so far, she hasn’t had any takers.”
If all that wasn’t enough to derail the wedding of her dreams, Katie’s apparently got an additional problem to solve – the effects of her recent surgeries.
We’re told she’s been complaining she “can’t feel her own face” after having three face-lifts in the past two years.
With numb cheeks adding to her woes, it’s unlikely that Katie will be a blushing bride. Until the smell of manure kicks in.
