Katie was declared bankrupt at the Rolls Building in London last week after she failed to meet the terms of an agreement to repay her creditors.
She is now thought to be in debt of £800,000 after spending her £45million fortune on lavish beauty treatments and expensive holidays abroad.
Ducking the question in the video she said: ‘I hate talking money. I have never spoken about money. Everyone seems to know what I have got but guess what no one knows but me.
‘It’s really unattractive to talk about how much money you’ve got or not got or got. So that’s the answer to that. Only I know.’

In a bid to combat her financial woes Katie sold her beloved pink £75,000 Range Rover at auction and earlier this month it emerged the luxury car was for sale at an Essex used car dealership in Chelmsford.
She has also been trying to sell her £300,000 pink horsebox.
JMW Solicitors, who represented the insolvency practitioner overseeing Katie’s repayments, brought her case to court on Tuesday after she failed to stick to the terms of her Individual Voluntary Agreement (IVA).
An IVA is a plan to repay creditors in smaller amounts to make debt more manageable – but Katie has been failing to pay the £12,000 a month.
The mother-of-five, previously known as Jordan, chose not to attend or send a lawyer. Adam Taylor, from JMW, said: ‘She hasn’t acknowledged the petition.’

Judge Jonathan Middleton, sitting at the specialist insolvency and companies court, said: ‘I do judge Ms Price to be bankrupt. The date is today and the time is 12:35.’
He added: ‘Ms Price isn’t present or represented so there is, as far as we can identify, no opposition.’
The court ruling meant a trustee could now be appointed to sell off her assets, including her £2million nine-bedroom home in West Sussex.
Katie, who has been married three times, is said to be £100,000 in arrears on mortgage repayments on the home which she allegedly spends £2,000 a month heating by leaving it on all the time.
She is also believed to have spent £120,000 on housekeepers, gardeners and nannies – and around £25,000 a year on plastic surgery.
She also spends £1,500 a week on manicures and pedicures, £1,000 on hair appointments and £800 on massages every other day, reported the Daily Mirror.
In March it was revealed she had been on six holidays in eight months – including trips to Spain, Belgium and Thailand – estimated to have cost a total of £25,000.
Katie has been married to singer Peter Andre, cagefighter Alex Reid and Kieran Hayler – and admitted turning to cocaine as her relationship with the latter deteriorated.
She used to be able to fund her lifestyle through modelling, reality TV shows and fragrances when she was at the height of her fame in the 1990s and 2000s.
But her only regular sources of income nowadays appear to be her Quest Red TV show My Crazy Life and plugging weight loss products on her Instagram account.
