However, Katie will continue acting in a panto production of Cinderella where she will play one of the Wicked Step Sisters alongside Kerry Katona.
The pantomime, which will take place in December at Northwich Memorial Court, Cheshire, will mark the first time the friends will work together for 20 years.
Katie and Kerry, 44, made a joint appearance in entertainment in 2004 when they both entered I’m A Celeb and became close friends; However, they had a bitter and public fight in 2007.

Tickets had already gone on sale for the shows, but bosses unexpectedly pulled the plug and ticket holders were left in the dark (pictured in Panto in 2015).
However, Katie will continue acting in a panto production of Cinderella where she will play one of the Wicked Step Sisters alongside Kerry Katona.
Sharing the exciting news of her upcoming performance, Kerry said the show will be “an incredible journey.”
Katie owes £750,000 to the taxman and has been declared bankrupt twice after squandering a multi-million pound fortune over the last decade.
He avoided having to discuss his finances at a public hearing in August after his lawyer said he suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder and pleaded to be allowed to reveal how he spends his money in a private meeting.
A High Court bankruptcy judge granted the request and said the timing of the meeting should be kept secret.
Katie was warned she must comply fully with the court or face arrest for a second time after being locked up for missing a court hearing to undergo a £10,000 facelift in Turkey.
Bailiffs evicted the star and her family from their West Sussex home in May after she failed to meet monthly mortgage payments.
The former model had paid £1.35million for the property in 2014 to former Tory peer Francis Maude and appeared in a Channel Four series as she attempted to renovate the house.
Katie’s financial problems
2019 – Katie was declared bankrupt with debts of £3.2m from her failed company Jordan Trading Ltd, which was set up to oversee her line of perfumes and cosmetics.
He set up the company in 2003, but in 2017 an application was made to liquidate it while he tried to sort out his finances.
When she was declared bankrupt, she undertook to repay £12,000 a month to the company’s creditors through an individual voluntary agreement.
The bankruptcy meant Katie, once worth £45million, faced losing her £2million, 11-bedroom mansion.
He took out a second mortgage on the property in 2015 but was faced with monthly payments of £12,300.
2022 – The former model had to appear before the Royal Court of Justice to explain to a judge why she has not paid the millions she owes to her creditors.
However, the hearing was adjourned at the last minute and her lawyers gave no reason why Katie did not appear in court.
March 2024 – Was declared bankrupt again over an unpaid tax bill of £761,994.05. The demand for payment was made by HMRC in October 2023.
The bill “derives from the self-assessments” of the 2020-2021 and 2021-22 financial years and includes VAT, taxes, surcharges and interest.
Insolvency and Companies Court judge Sebastian Prentis told the hearing at London’s Rolls Building: “There has been no response from the debtor. The papers are in order.
“Ms Price has a substantial debt to HMRC and I will therefore be making a bankruptcy order.”
May 2024: Katie is evicted from her home after receiving a notice and giving her weeks to leave. She was told bailiffs will arrive at 10am on May 29 to ensure she and the other occupants have left the property.
