Former Model Katie Price Faces Fine and Theater Ban for Smoking
Former model and reality TV star Katie Price may face a £5000 fine and a ban from a theater for smoking backstage.

According to recent reports from the British tabloid, The Sun, 45-year-old former model and reality TV star, Katie Price, may face a fine of £5000 and a ban from the theater for smoking backstage.

 

Pryce was caught on camera smoking while livestreaming on the TikTok social media platform, as she showcased her dressing room to her fans. In the midst of her final preparations, Pryce pulled out an e-cigarette from her pocket. Realizing she had been spotted, Pryce hastily concealed the e-cigarette and turned her head to exhale the smoke.

 

According to regulations, smoking and using e-cigarettes are prohibited in music and sports venues. As a mother of five children, Price could now potentially face a fine of £5000. Currently performing as the evil queen in Sleeping Beauty at the M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool, there is also a risk of being banned from the theater for her.

 

The management of the theater has a strict zero-tolerance policy towards smoking and the use of e-cigarettes within the premises. They state on their official website, "Smoking is strictly prohibited. Anyone found smoking inside the venue will be asked to leave without a refund. The use of e-cigarettes is also strictly forbidden.
