Katie Price’s cars reveal her key personality traits… here’s what you DIDN’T know about star
KATIE Price’s cars reveal key personality traits, a top psychologist has revealed.
The former glamour model, 45, is famous for driving around in shocking pink vehicles.
That choice of colour gives an insight into Katie’s personality, according to Jo Hemmings, a leading behavioural and media psychologist.
Jo told The Sun Online: “Katie likes to be different and stand out from the crowd. She has pink woven through her life, so having a huge bright pink, customised car is an obvious choice for her.
“Pink car owners also tend to be nurturing and compassionate – flashy as it maybe it’s good to know she’s got a kind heart too.”
Ferrari
Katie splashed out £179k on a custom made pink Ferrari in April 2022.

It was designed by Lisa Marie Brown - the owner of the first pink Maserati and Ferrari in the UK.
Katie shared a picture of her with Lisa at the time, telling followers: “So, today I've met my match, we all know I love pink. One pink to another pink... This lady here is going to be designing my next car.”
Range Rover
Katie is perhaps best known for driving around in a pink Range Rover, although it was sold a couple of years ago.
The set of wheels had set her back a cool £75,000 but was repossessed in 2019 in her bankruptcy battle.

It was this pink car that Katie crashed in October 2018 into a VW Golf and a hedge in Woolwich, damaging the vehicle and leaving debris spread across the road.
She was nearly twice the legal limit at the time and received a two-year disqualification after withholding the identity of the driver.
The 2011 automatic five-seater is bright pink and kitted out with TVs and a DVD player with headphones, as well as a private licence plate.
The car was sold on Auto Trader, who priced it at just under £19k and boasted in the spec about it being a "celebrity car".
The description read: "The car arguably has a minor celebrity status of its own, thanks to many appearances in the tabloid papers."
The wheels, exhaust, and pedals were changed to aluminium and "everything has been re-upholstered" after Katie vomited during her drink-drive arrest.
Volkswagen Beetle
Another pink car was a VW Beetle, which seemed to be a favourite with the star.
Katie was known for driving the little pink car, which attracted the second report to the police alleging she had been driving while disqualified.
The police could not investigate further due to a lack of evidence and two days later Katie took a snap of the convertible as it was loaded onto a tow truck.
She is thought to have hired a professional moving company to transport the Beetle from her £1.2million rented mansion in Surrey to ex Carl Woods' home in Hertfordshire.
BMW
Breaking her pink car habit, Katie got herself a silver BMW.
This though came to a nasty end when she rolled it in a drink and drug drive smash.
The star was rushed to hospital and the car was pictured on its side across the road - with the mangled front crashed into some bushes.
It was understood Katie was still banned from driving at the time of the crash and sources also told The Sun she had "stayed up all night partying with a few close friends".

In the past Katie has also owned a 2001 Suzuki Vitara which not only came in a shocking pink colour but also had the Barbie logo down the side.
It’s not exactly clear what happened to the car as it was put up for sale in 2019 on eBay but the listing was later pulled and it seems the car has since been gathering dust at Katie’s Sussex home.
