Katie Price has had to say goodbye to another pet following the death of her dog Sharon.
The pooch was reportedly struck by a vehicle after it escaped through an open gate. The Pomeranian, which has been pictured next to Price on social media, is said to have been struck by a vehicle on a main road.
A motorist is thought to have taken the poor pup to Arun Vets in Pulborough, West Sussex. It is not confirmed if this driver was the one who hit the dog.
Sharon is Price's sixth pet to pass away under her care and a source says the former glamour model is said to be "in bits" after the traumatising incident, reports the Mirror.
Speaking to the Sun, the sourced added that Sharon's unexpected death "rotten luck" following its unfortunate escape. It comes following the publishing of an online petition to get pets removed from Katie's care.
The petition, which has garnered over 24,000 signatures, is calling for the reality star to be 'banned from buying animals'. It claims Katie's pets are dying due to "lack of care" as campaign organisers say, "no more animals need to die".
Back in 2017, one of Katie's horses was killed after it was struck by a vehicle, a year after that a delivery driver ran over her Alsatian, Queenie.
Her pet Chameleon Marvin died of a "broken heart" that same year as her children Princess and Junior went to stay with their dad Peter Andre.
Katie's Alsatian Sparkle was struck by a car in 2020 and just months later her French Bulldog Rolo suffocated when the family's nanny sat on it.
She was also forced to give away her Alsatian, Bear, for attacking other animals. Katie currently owns chihuahuas Captain, Buddy, Colin and Batman, and guard dog Blade, and is thought to be "devastated" about the petition against her owning animals.
It claims she had puppies which allegedly drowned in a "neglected swimming pool" as well as claiming one of her cats was "ripped" apart by her dogs.
Organisers say animals "just go missing" insider her Mucky Mansion "to been seen again". The Daily Record has contacted Katie's representation for comment.
The ordeal comes after Katie's fiancé Carl Woods announced their break-up and accused her on cheating on him. Carl appeared to deny claims they are back on, after pictures emerged of them kissing and holding hands.
The former Love Island star, 34, who dated the former glamour model for two years before their split this week, took to Instagram to share some cryptic words.
In a cryptic post, he penned: "Unless it comes from me on my platform, it's bull****."
