Katie Price reveals she is ‘registered disabled’ after fall left her ‘crippled for life’

The reality star says she sustained life-changing injuries after falling from a 25ft wall while on holiday

Katie Price has declared that she is now registered as disabled after a major fall left her “crippled and scarred for life”.

The former glamour model, 42, broke both her feet after reportedly falling from a 25ft wall while on holiday in Turkey last year.

She told The Sun she will never wear heels again or walk for more than 20 minutes a day, comparing the pain to “shocks of lightning shooting up my feet.”

Price said: “I’m registered disabled and have got letters from the doctors to certify me for a blue badge, which I’ve sent off for.”

This will enable her to park in disabled spaces close to shop entrances, as she explained: “I can’t carry anything from the shops or even walk up the stairs with anything.”

She continued: “The accident has changed my life and it’s only just sunk in if I’m honest.

“I’ve got a limp when I walk now as one leg is longer than the other because of all the metal in the foot — I waddle like a duck. It does make me feel a bit paranoid.

“It’s just one thing after another… I know — every day is a nightmare at the moment in the life of the Pricey.”

Price previously told of how she underwent an eight-hour surgery after falling onto a concrete ramp in July 2020.

Last month Price, a mother of five, said she wants another baby with boyfriend Carl Woods.

Her oldest son, 18-year-old Harvey, is severely disabled. Last month, she was praised after they appeared together in a BBC documentary.

After filming the programme Price said she had decided to move her son Harvey into a residential college, where he will be taught skills which will help him to lead a more independent life.

Blue badges can enable certain concessions to holders, such as parking for up to three hours on single and double yellow lines, dependent on the location and local rules.

According to online Government guidance, the badges allow people easier access to shops and services by allowing them to park closer to their destinations.

The permit is only for use by the person it has been issued to and the Government warns that misuse may result in a £1,000 fine and confiscation.
