Katie Price avoids prison after breaching restraining order

Katie Price arrives at Lewes Crown Court, East Sussex, where she was handed 170 hours of unpaid work for breaching a restraining order (Gareth Fuller/PA).

Katie Price has avoided jail for sending an “angry and inflammatory” message to her ex-husband in breach of a restraining order banning her from contacting his new partner.

The 44-year-old former glamour model sent Kieran Hayler a message on January 21 this year in which she branded his new partner, Michelle Penticost, a “c***ing whore” and a “gutter slag”.
