Katie Price and beau Carl Woods 'swap red list Turkey for Spain as they relax at a luxury villa... and will no longer have to quarantine at a hotel in the UK'
Katie Price and her beau Carl Woods have reportedly jetted to sunny Spain after their stay in Turkey where she had full body liposuction.
According to The Sun, the couple are staying at a villa in Malaga, with the hunk, 33, sharing clips of a pool and stunning views surrounding the pad to Instagram.
Spain is on the UK government's amber list - meaning travellers returning to the UK can isolate at home - while Turkey is on the red list requiring hotel quarantine.

Carl gave fans a glimpse into their plush accommodation, panning his camera around to showcase the rolling hills and open countryside.
Two loungers could also be seen by a spacious swimming pool, while the white villa and extra seating sat further back.
A source told the publication: 'Katie can avoid having to pay for a quarantine hotel if she returns to the UK from an amber list country and quarantine at home instead.'

A MailOnline spokesperson told MailOnline: 'This is a planned stop gap before returning to the UK.'
Spain, including the Balearics and Canary Islands, is currently on UK's amber list, meaning those returning to Britain must quarantine for 10 days- however this can be done at home.
The government also requires that travellers take a Covid test on or before day two and on or after day eight.

It may be possible to end quarantine early if a private Covid test through the Test to Release scheme is paid for.
Whereas people who have been in a red list country in the 10 days before their return to the UK must quarantine in a hotel - at a cost of £1,750 - for 10 full days.
They also have to take a coronavirus test on or before day two and on or after day eight of quarantining.
Trip out: The hunk also revealed he'd enjoyed a stroll along an empty street in the holiday destination on Wednesday
Turkey is on the red list of countries, which the UK government says are at the highest risk from Covid, and should not be visited 'except in the most extreme of circumstances'.
It comes after Katie underwent full body liposuction in Turkey last Tuesday after gaining two stone in lockdown after injuring her feet in a freak incident.
The star showed off her post-surgery compression stockings on her Instagram stories on Monday as she recovered from her procedure.
The mum-of-five, 43, called herself a 'trooper' after going under the knife, with the star having to previously defend her travel to Turkey calling it a 'work trip'.

Katie - who flew to Turkey with beau Carl last Monday - has stated that filming the procedure for Katie Price: My Crazy Life, constitutes as an extreme circumstance, due to the fact it is a work trip, and her current weight has left her in physical pain.
A representative for the star told MailOnline: 'Katie has travelled with her fiancé to undergo a surgical procedure.
'The purpose of this travel is essential in that it is for her work, she is being filmed undergoing the operation.'
Katie broke both feet last summer after jumping off a 25ft wall while on holiday with her family, which has left her unable to do much cardio.

Touching on the incident, Katie's rep continued: 'Since her horrific accident in Turkey last year that left Katie with life changing injuries, Katie has not been able to exercise or lose weight gained post op in the way she has successfully done so in the past.
'Despite her efforts to lose weight she has gained over two stone - this in turn has put immense pressure and further strain on her feet and is directly affecting her walking and management of day to day as a mother of five without being in constant pain.
'Katie accepts she is in a fortunate position to be able to undergo this procedure and would like to reassure in doing so is part of her "work", in sharing her journey as she endures further emotional, mental struggles and challenges.'
Katie's representative stressed at the time that the star, Carl and camera crew will stay in a mandatory quarantine hotel when they get back, costing £1,750 per person.
Pre-surgery: While she also shared an image of her legs as she relaxed by the pool before undergoing her liposuction
Katie has booked in for full body liposuction with Mono Cosmetic Surgery - the same clinic where a mother-of-three died in August after undergoing the same treatment.
Abimbola Ajoke Bamgbose, 38, a social worker from Dartford, Kent, passed away after buying a £5000 overseas package deal including liposuction and a Brazilian Butt Lift.
The inquest heard that a post-mortem examination found that Abimbola suffered perforations to the bowel and a cause of death was given as peritonitis with multiple organ failure as a complication of liposuction surgery.
The hearing was told that such perforations were a rare complication in the UK, with about three to five cases in the past decade, but that it might be more common abroad.
Katie previously jetted to Turkey in April 2019 where as a Brazilian bumlift, she also had liposuction and a facelift.

WHAT IS LIPOSUCTION AND WHAT ARE THE DANGERS?
PURPOSE:
Liposuction removes fat from areas such as the abdomen, arms, buttocks, calves, chest, back, hips, thighs, neck, and very occasionally breasts.
The procedure reduces the number of fat cells in a specific area. The amount of fat removed depends on the appearance of the area and the volume of fat.
HOW IT'S DONE:
There are a few ways of doing it.
The most common is 'tumescent liposuction':
- Surgeon injects a sterile solution (salt water to help fat removal, anesthetic to relieve pain, and epinephrine to constrict blood vessels) into the area that's being treated. The fluid causes the affected area to swell and stiffen.
- The surgeon then makes small cuts into the skin, inserting a thin tube called a cannula. The cannula is connected to a vacuum sucking fat and fluids out of the body.
- Patients can later be given an IV drip to replenish their body fluids.
RISKS:
If done in the wrong hands, liposuction can carry a number of risks, many life-threatening.
Patients can suffer heart problems due to a shift in fluid levels as fluids are being injected in and suctioned out.
Depending on the location of the operation, there could be a risk of puncturing an internal organ with the cannula.
Some botched operations have led to fat embolisms - when pieces of loosened fat might break away and become trapped in a blood vessel and gather in the lungs or travel to the brain.
Skin infections are also possible, though rare.
Aesthetically, surgeons with little or poor experience could leave patients with bumpy, wavy or withered skin due to uneven fat removal, poor skin elasticity and unusual healing.
They could tamper with nerves, causing permanent numbness in the affected area.
