The TV personality narrowly avoided bankruptcy last week as the star, who was once worth a reported £45 million, was awarded three months to pay off her mounting debts,

Katie was not present at the High Court Roll's building in London on Tuesday, but her team submitted proposals for an individual voluntary agreement (IVA). 

She is already thought to be selling her £2million West Sussex mansion, which she bought in 2014, as well as all of her beloved farmyard animals.

Katie has been bidding for months to stave off bankruptcy, following the demise of her third marriage to Kieran Hayler, 31, and the collapse of her businesses.
