![Defiantly, Price said she was 'not embarrassed or ashamed' regarding the arrest. She explained that her bankruptcy was due to 'serious mental health issues and breakdowns from PTSD'. She added that she would be paying back debtors and hoped for 'Harvey's sake it's handled with care and compassion'. Her statement came after she was ordered to pay £25,000 after being declared bankrupt twice. A judge at a previous hearing said Price risked arrest if she did not attend further court dates, adding evidence must be provided if she could not appear. Issuing the arrest warrant , Judge Burton said she had 'failed to attend today's hearing' and had provided no explanation for her absence. She said: 'It is in my judgment necessary that the court issue a warrant for Ms Price's arrest. She continued: 'The reason for her absence today is irrelevant.'](https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/08/09/07/88326717-0-image-a-6_1723183953488.jpg)
