Katie Price has insisted yet again that she hasn’t broken the coronavirus lockdown rules.

Yesterday, she denied that she had broken the rules by posing up for a picture with someone from outside her household, saying that they are in a support bubble together.

Now, the former glamour model, 42, issued another denial after leaving her fans confused with another snap.

In the new one, she’s seen posing with Dhillan Bhardwaj, the owner of Ratchet clothing.

The businessman was keen to brag about meeting with the Page 3 star as he boasted on his Instagram page: “Very excited to help @katieprice on her new clothing venture. YouTube video out this Friday on her channel.”

Alongside the words, Dhillan shared a snap of himself sitting next to Katie on the same grey furniture that she posed on the day prior.

When approached for comment, Katie’s representative told The Mirror: “Dhillian is part of the design team, he has undergone testing and is negative. Katie would not put her son or mother at risk – she would also not openly post a meeting on her social media for all to see if there was anything un-toward.

“Katie feels aggrieved that she is constantly having to defend herself, please be rest assured and your readers that Katie is not breaking any guidelines.”

A support bubble is where a household with one adult joins with another household. Households within a bubble can still visit each other, stay overnight, and visit public places together.

The UK Gov site explains: “Once you’re in a support bubble, you can think of yourself as being in one ‘household’. It means you can have close contact with the other household in your bubble as if they were members of your own household.”

Under Tier 2 rules, which Katie lives in, people are told not to socialise with anyone they do not live with or who is not in their support bubble in any indoor setting, whether that’s at home or in a public place.

People are also still encouraged to stay two metres apart from people that they don’t live with there possible and told to wear face coverings in indoor settings when coming into contact with people they don’t normally meet.

Katie currently lives with Carl and her son Harvey.

Her children – Junior and Princess, who she shares with ex Peter Andre, and Bunny and Jett, who are from her last marriage to Kieran Hayler, are able to move freely between her and their fathers’ households according to the rules.

Yesterday, Katie insisted that she did not break social distancing rules when fans called her out.

She came under fire when she uploaded a snap online that showed her posing on a plush crushed velvet sofa at her beau Carl Woods’ home.

In the snap, she could be seen throwing a thumbs up alongside Carl, her daughter Princess, 13, and a man thought to be a representative of a company named Big Clothing 4 U.

In response to the backlash, Katie claimed she was not breaking any Coronavirus rules as the business associate was inside her support bubble.

In recent weeks she has also been sharing content that featured her working with a make-up artist and a videographer.

The loved-up star also recently shared that she spent an evening with Carl’s mum – who she was meeting for the first time.

The mother-of-five has said that she fears for her eldest child Harvey’s safety as she believes if he caught coronavirus it would “finish him off”.

The 18-year-old has a number of health conditions, including Prader-Willi syndrome, partial blindness and autism.

Katie is also worried about her mum, Amy, who was diagnosed with a terminal lung condition in 2017.

She told The Sun : “My mum and Harvey are very high risk. You can hear him breathing.

“Because he is a big boy you can just hear him breathing. Even if he gets a cold that is bad.”

She added: “If he gets Covid it would probably finish him off. That is not a joke.”

She said that as a family they are being “really, really, really careful”.
