Katie Price 's Mucky Mansion home renovation show has been thrown into chaos as the house is reportedly 'filled with rubbish' and 'too dirty' for film crews.
The Channel 4 show, which was renewed for a second season after it premiered in February 2021, focused on giving the mother-of-five's home a make-over after it fell into disrepair. However, despite being given the go ahead for a second season, filming has been disrupted after reports emerged the home was ‘filled up with rubbish again since the last show was filmed’.
The source added: "There are piles of old clothes and free gifts Katie has been sent, and bags of litter and old hangers. It’s very dirty in the parts of the house that haven’t been made over yet, and it’s damp and mouldy – the warm weather recently hasn’t helped," the insider told The Sun .
""They had to call in a specialist company to shift a lot of the stuff out so it's safe for the crew to go in," the source continued. "I think it's filled up with rubbish again since the last show was filmed."
When the crew moved in previously, Katie made over daughter Princess’s and son Jett’s bedrooms, and her mum Amy - who is suffering from an incurable lung condition - designed a special ‘garden room’ for her daughter to remember her by.
Katie also paid tribute to her fiance Carl Woods with a huge neon sign in the hallway spelling out ‘PriceyWoods’. Speaking on ITV’s Lorraine, Katie revealed plans for series two and said: “We've only done four rooms so far, there's eleven bedrooms there, all the other rooms. Everyone loved it, I wanna do my bedroom!"
The property had previously fallen into serious disrepair after being left empty, with vandals also breaking in and causing more damage by leaving taps running in upstairs bathrooms, causing the kitchen ceiling below to cave in.
Katie had previously described her plan to makeover the £1.2million Essex house and turn it into a home, adding in a statement ahead of the first series: "My house has been called the Mucky Mansion in the past, but it’s not that anymore, I’m making it a home.
"I’m getting my hands dirty and doing a lot of the work myself and, with the help of my amazing family and some brilliant friends, I’m putting the past behind me and rebuilding. My house is a bit like my life, it’s being put back together like I’m being put back together."
Sources previously claimed Katie will receive a whopping £45,000 pay out for the upcoming second series.
"C4 were really pleased with the reaction to the show - and Katie jumped at the chance to sign up for a second series," an insider told The Sun at the time, "The house is far from finished so she needs all the help she can get."
