KATIE Price fears she’ll be jailed with STAPLES in her face.
The twice bankrupt star is currently holidaying in Turkey - despite a warrant out for her arrest.
She faces prison when she returns to the UK after failing to turn up to court over a £760,000 unpaid tax bill.

Now The Sun can reveal she plans to stay out in Turkey as she enjoys staying at a £133-a-night five-star resort with her boyfriend JJ and disabled son Harvey.
A source told us: "Katie's actually extending her holiday and plans to stay in Turkey longer.
