“I’m absolutely heartbroken… I’m having a dramatic change in my life for the better,” she said.
“I don’t want to have to read or see anything in the press about me, my family & friends or my exes.”
Adding: “This has all got to stop.”
“I’ll be back when I’m ready.”
It comes in the wake of the death of TV Presenter Caroline Flack who died by suicide on Saturday, February 15th.
Katie was recently banned from driving and declared bankrupt.
The star has been the subject of a number of tabloid stories in the past few months relating to her romance with on-again-off-again boyfriend Kris Boyson.
