The latest break in came just weeks after thieves broke into her home in Sussex, stealing her I’m A Celebrity rucksack and leaning the shower head over the ceiling which caused the bathroom to flood and the ceiling to collapse.
Katie told The Sun at the time: ‘I’ve already contacted police and told them all this.

The break-in is the latest in a string of set-backs for the reality star, who previously spoke about the first batch of break-ins, which happened only weeks ago, on her YouTube channel.
She explained: ‘My neighbour Helen checked the property last week.
‘In the evening someone went into my bathroom upstairs took the shower head off and put it over the bath, turned it on knowing no-one would be here and it’s all leaked and the whole ceiling collapsed. They didn’t steal nothing.

‘Then the next night she came in and said ‘Kate they’ve come again, they’ve ransacked your house’.
‘All they’ve stolen is my I’m A Celebrity bag which is a bit odd. Yeah I hate this house, even standing here gives me anxiety. I hate this house.’
Katie then went on to walk around the property expressing her surprise at how they didn’t steal certain valuable items.
Keep out! ‘I’ve got someone going to my house to put a padlock on the bottom of the field gate, it looks like people are wrecking my property to go in again’ said Katie, last week
