Saturday 26 November 2022 05:38 PM Katie Price shows off her new look 'after her dog's tragic death' trends now

Katie Price showed off her brand new hair colour on Saturday after it emerged her dog Sharon was killed in a road accident.

The former glamour model, 44, took to Instagram to debut her new look after going from blonde to brunette despite the star reportedly being 'in bits' over the death of her Pomeranian.

It is claimed reality star Katie was grieving the loss of her sixth pet on Friday after the animal was hit by a car in West Sussex but she appeared to be taking her mind off things this weekend, showing off her much darker hair on social media and writing: 'Can’t believe how different I look going back brunette.'

Earlier this week Katie showcased her much lighter shade of hair as she sat on the worktop in her kitchen.

She gave a glimpse at her midriff and her tattoos as she wore a blue-grey co-ord while posing for the camera. 

It comes after Katie was reportedly grieving the loss of her sixth pet on Friday after her beloved Pomeranian dog Sharon was killed after she allegedly escaped and ran onto the road where she was hit by a car.

The pooch was recently pictured on the glamour model's Instagram grid as she lay next to the former I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! star. 

Sharon was picked up off the busy A24 by the driver of a vehicle and taken to Arun Vets in Pulborough, West Sussex, where her death was confirmed, according to The Sun.

A source close to the reality TV star - who owns Chihuahuas Captain, Buddy, Colin and Batman, and guard dog Blade - told the publication it was 'rotten luck' that Sharon was hit, adding that Katie is 'in bits'.

MailOnline contacted a representative for Katie and the vets for comment.

Katie's dogs Rolo, Queenie and Sparkle died in previous years, while she has also lost a pet chameleon and a beloved horse.

Earlier this month, it was reported Katie was 'devastated' after losing her pet Chihuahua Captain while on holiday, before she was reunited with the dog. 

Katie lost the pup while staying in Sandbanks, Dorset with her on-off fiancé, Carl Woods, 33.

Speaking to The Sun, a source said: 'Katie was in bits. She thought Captain would be fine off his lead as they were staying on a friend's private property which was very secure but he managed to run off.

'Katie was devastated thinking she has lost him for good, or that he might get run over.'  

After eight hours of searching, the former Celebrity Big Brother winner then received a phone call to say Captain had been found.

He had been taken to a local vet where they were able to identify him via his microchip.

Katie has previously come under fire after a Change.Org petition gained traction in a bid to ban her from owning further animals. It had more than 25,000 signatures at the time of writing.
