Katie then insisted she was “going to enjoy” her sun-soaked getaway despite the court judge then issuing a warrant for her arrest.
Yet living the high life in the luxury holiday resort may be more difficult now she’s been slapped with a hefty payment order.
Judge Catherine Burton said Katie has so far failed to make the payments ordered by the court.
She was previously 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.”
The mum of five has also been ordered to sell up her huge car collection in an attempt to lessen some of her debts.
On Katie’s drive currently sits a Volkswagen Beetle, a Nissan Elgrand, a black Range Rover Vogue, a pink one, a Suzuki Vitara and an Infiniti FX50 – amounting to a whopping £280k.
