Katie Price has been rushed to hospital after an alleged ‘drug and drink-drive’ crash.

The reality star, who is understood to already be banned from driving, is currently in hospital, The Sun reported.

Police arrested the 43-year-old for alleged drink-driving at the scene of the crash on Tuesday, and given she is already thought to be subject to a driving ban, the newspaper suggested, she could face jail over the crash.

Price, the paper noted, isn’t due to get her licence back until 13 October.

A source told The Sun that Price had rolled her car and was “in a bad way” when police arrived.

A Sussex Police spokeswoman said the force had responded to a single-vehicle collision on the B2135 near Partridge Green around 6.20am.

“A woman, 43, was arrested on suspicion of driving while above the legal limit for alcohol and drugs, and has been taken to hospital to be checked over.”

The spokeswoman did not confirm Price was involved in the crash.

The accident came just hours after Price spoke on Good Morning Britain about her difficulty visiting son Harvey because she couldn’t get behind the wheel.

The Sun reported that the mother-of-five was due to get her driving licence back in April, but was banned for a further six months following an admin error and that she has been banned from driving six times in the last ten years.
