Cops: ‘We do not condone Katie’s trip’
POLICE said they “do not condone” Katie Price’s 200mile Valentine’s weekend trip but insist she complied with lockdown regulations.
As we reported yesterday, officers spoke to Katie, 42, and boyfriend Carl Woods, 32, after they were accused of breaching rules.

Officers spoke to owners of Henlle Hall and found the pair were there for “legitimate business purposes” – said to be a photoshoot.
But West Mercia Police clarified that they “discouraged” her actions.
Katie’s spokeswoman said police were “satisfied” with her explanation.
