Financially troubled Katie Price was twice taken to court for debts under £1,000 and as low as £708, financial records show.

The former glamour model, who is facing another bankruptcy hearing, was taken to a small claims court over the low sum in 2019.

Records on the Registry Trust show in May that year the Online County Court issued a CCJ against her at her Mucky Mansion home for £708.

The following month the Civil  National  Business  Centre recorded another CCJ against her for the sum of £886.

The reality TV star had a much bigger CCJ recorded against her at the same civil centre in October 2018 for £9,054.

All three were recorded against her former home dubbed Mucky Mansion in Horsham, West Sussex.

According to the registry the three debts remain unsatisfied, suggesting they have still not been paid.

The registry does not list who the claimants were.

Our revelations come as a new Channel 5 documentary tonight promises to lift the lid on what led to the troubled star's financial woes.

At her last bankruptcy hearing on August 27, she appeared at the High Court Rolls Building in London to face questions from barristers over her finances.

However, a judge adjourned the hearing after the mum-of-five's lawyers asked for her to attend a "private interview".

As she left the courtroom she told journalists sitting in the public gallery: "I hope you reporters write a good story today, won't you, all the bulls**t that you write, scumbags."

According to Land Registry records for the extensive property with stables and large grounds, that she was evicted from in May, she bought the pad for £1,350,000 on October 6 2014, when her finances appeared to be in good order.

Yesterday, we revealed who will first get access to money from the sale of her house when its sale goes through, from details of a series of legal charges registered against it.

The first petition for her bankruptcy was registered on 29 April 2016, according to the Land Registry, but the creditor who applied is not named.

A second bankruptcy petition was registered against the property on September 5 2019.

This led to her first actual bankruptcy order made at the High Court on December 3 2019.

During the latest new ongoing bankruptcy proceedings, in February this year, she was ordered to pay 40 percent of her monthly income from the adult entertainment website OnlyFans until February 2027 to help pay off her debts.

Nick Goodman, Partner - Dispute Resolution, Corporate, Insolvency at Slater Heelis, said: "Normally, priority between charges is determined by the order in which they are registered.

The property still remains registered in Price's name today.

Channel 5 has commissioned an hour-long documentary entitled Katie Price: Where Did The Money Go? from ITN Productions to air on Sunday.

The show will chart the 46-year-old's career and very public personal life up to the present day and a look at how the former glamour model went from rags to riches, and back again.

The documentary will look in detail at the spending excesses and the bad decisions that have led to a £750,000 unpaid tax bill and an arrest for failing to appear in court at a previous bankruptcy hearing.
