KATIE Price has splashed out on a new horse for daughter Bunny just weeks after being declared bankrupt for a second time.
The mum-of-five failed to show up to the court hearing over her unpaid £762,000 tax bill last month as she was ‘dealing with some serious stuff’.
It hasn’t stopped keen equestrian Katie, 45, from gifting a new pony to her youngest daughter, nine, as she continues to encourage her to ride.
A source told the Sun: “Neighbours saw the horse being delivered and how excited Bunny was.
“Kate loves having a riding buddy in Bunny and knows how much she loves horses like she does.
“She doesn’t see it as another animal to look after but just how happy it makes Bunny.”

It isn’t the first time she’s treated one of her kids to a horse as Princess, 16, received one as a gift for her 7th birthday.
The latest purchase comes after we revealed Katie is failing to cooperate with her bankruptcy case.
She remains trapped in her 2019 insolvency, stemming from outstanding tax and mortgage payments.
Despite the appointment of a trustee to assist in resolving her debts exceeding £3million, Katie’s unwillingness to help has led to the indefinite suspension of her discharge.

The addition of a new pet is likely to raise eyebrows as it was only in February that her beloved horse Wallis was reportedly removed from her property by bailiffs.
The £250,000 steed, which Katie bought back in 2009, was allegedly seized along with another horse.
Meanwhile Katie recently horrified fans when she went out for a ride with Bunny without wearing a helmet.
And it wasn’t for the first time, weeks prior to that some feared she could die if she were to have an accident without the correct protective gear on.
Some of Katie’s critics are almost certain to be unhappy that she owns yet another animal after a spate of pet deaths at her Sussex mansion.
Thirty-six thousand people have signed a petition to stop her having animals after the deaths of at least seven pets including five dogs.
