“She’s prone to getting infections after operations, and her surgeon says she could lose a leg if her feet get infected.
Katie’s doctors have warned her she must take her recovery seriously.
“She’ll have to be so, so careful – she’ll have medical professionals on call 24/7 – and change the dressings regularly.”
Katie Price’s rep has confirmed to Entertainment Daily that Katie was issued the above warnings.
Her representative said: “Katie has been advised prior to her surgical procedure of the risks attached, Katie is in the very best of expert hands and risk is minimal.”
Katie explained how she broke her feet during one of her YouTube videos.
Addressing her subscribers, she said: “Silly little accident. I was running, jumped over a wall because it was a little shortcut.
“And I didn’t really judge the height. I fell funny on my ankles.
“I fractured the hairline in my heels and stuff.”
What happened to her feet?
Since then she’s been shown zipping about in a mobility scooter.
She has also shared how she must now crawl across the floor in knee pads to get around her house.
