Katie Price’s dog Sparkle has died after being hit by a car.
The 41-year-old star’s pet pooch – an Alsatian – tragically passed away after escaping from the grounds when Katie wasn’t at the house and running onto the nearby A24, The Sun Online reports.
Sparkle is the half-sister of her other pet pooch Bear – with both of whom having escaped from the house before.
Back in 2019, Bear was picked up on the dual carriageway by a police officer and taken back to Katie’s home whilst Sparkle made it back itself.
A source said at the time: "Katie really needs to shore up her garden as it’s only a matter of time before something bad happens if the dogs keep escaping. Luckily motorists spotted the dogs and drove carefully while they were loose and a policeman was on hand to help out."
The A24 is also the road where one of Katie’s horses tragically died after it escaped from a field at her home three years ago.
In 2018, Katie claimed her dog Queenie had been killed in a hit and run after a delivery driver knocked the pooch down.
She wrote at the time: "I’m absolutely Devastated heartbroken my faithful loving family dogs life Queenie has been shortened as she was killed by a heartless delivery driver who ran into our dog seeing her struggle and drove off without telling us and left her to die very disappointed a human being can be this heartless! … Security cameras show this and we have reported to police ! DEVASTATED is a understatement (sic)"
Alongside a number of crying emojis, she added: "I’ll miss her so much."
