She captioned the picture with some upsetting words: 'Thinking about the junkie c**t who stole my new bank card out of my letterbox this morning.
'They started spending heavily while I was slaving away at work. Now I can't afford my wedding, thanks junkie.'
Cathy then reassured fans she was 'kidding' about not being able to afford the upcoming ceremony, but 'only just'.

In December, Cathy announced her engagement to partner Richard after five years together.
She revealed the exciting news via her Instagram while on holiday with her beau.
Sharing a selfie as a newly-engaged couple, Cathy seemed thrilled with her new engagement status.
'First pic together as an engaged couple where I'm not sobbing,' she wrote alongside the photo.
Cathy, who appeared on the Channel Nine dating show in 2020, later shared a separate video thanking her followers for their well wishes and congratulations.
In the clip, the New Zealand-born influencer showed off her massive oval-cut diamond engagement ring that was set in gold.
'Thank you for all the messages guys,' she continued.
'We are in the biggest love bubble [right now] and our friends just arrived on our trip so we will be on and off socials. More to come later my loves.'
Cathy debuted her relationship with Richard in August 2020, but later revealed they had been together for some time prior to that.
The reality star met police officer Richard shortly after filming Nine's social experiment.
'I think I fell in love with every aspect of Ritchie's being – he is so supportive and believes in me, and that makes me so excited,' she told NW magazine in 2020.
Cathy rose to fame on the popular Australian dating show Married At First Sight in 2020.
She was paired with groom Josh Pihlak but they split during the experiment.

Inside Mabel's wedding to Preye Crooks after spending 5-figure sum to rent London museum with 150 guests attending
Mabel has officially got a Ring Ring on it after tying the knot with her fiancé at the weekend. I can reveal the pop star wed music exec Preye Crooks on Saturday and they held a boozy bash in South West London afterwards. 3 3 3 The champagne and margaritas were flowing late into the night for around 150 of their nearest and dearest at the Victoria and Albert Museum in Chelsea. A source told me: 'It was quite an intimate affair initially — they had a nice dinner with their closest friends and family to kick things off. "Then more of their loved ones turned up to celebrate with them in style later in the evening. 'They all had a brilliant time and Mabel and Preye looked so in love.' I'm told TV presenter Miquita Oliver — who Mabel has previously described as her 'big sister' — as well as her telly chef mum Andi Oliver, were among those celebrating at the V&A, which usually costs at least £10,000 to hire for wedding parties. Mabel got engaged to Preye, son of former Spurs footballer Garth Crooks, last November. After Preye popped the question, she proudly showed off her sparkling diamond ring in a video online. In January she revealed their relationship is the 'healthiest' one she has ever been in. Mabel also said recently that her mum, Swedish singer Neneh Cherry, 'just cries all the time' out of excitement about her wedding. But it sounds like her dad, singer and producer Cameron McVey, might have been harder to impress — as he was not best pleased with one of her exes. Watch moment huge pop star gets engaged to son of footy legend after shock proposal Earlier this month on YouTube series Comfortably Speaking, Mabel revealed: 'One time a guy pulled up to my dad's house in a Lamborghini and I remember my dad just being like, 'Never bring a man to my house again until you're serious'.' She added of her parents: 'I think the thing that they are proudest of is that I'm more able to be myself and express myself.' Mabel and Preye are obviously in Mad Love — and I for one couldn't be happier for them.

England 2005 Ashes hero warns Ben Stokes and co over final India Test match
EXCLUSIVE: England head to The Oval this week knowing they will win the series against India if they avoid defeat in the fifth Test, just like against Australia in 2005 Ashes legend Matthew Hoggard now runs a barbecue school - and after landing the holy grill in 2005 he says England must cook up a storm this week. Going to The Oval 2-1 up in a gripping marquee series? Hoggard has been there and done that 20 years ago as Michael Vaughan's heroes recaptured the urn in a seismic summer when cricket was the only show in town. Now England are in the same boat after a tetchy, thrilling win at Lord's and a sour finish to the stalemate at Old Trafford as Ben Stokes fed two Indian batters joke bowling to bring up their centuries when they refused to shake hands on the draw earlier. And Hoggard was thrilled the class of 2005 was namechecked by Joe Root as one of his inspirations growing up after Yorkshire's batting royalty unfurled his 38th Test century at the weekend. Hoggy, who took 248 wickets in 67 Tests, said: 'Listening to Joe being interviewed, after he had just become the second-greatest run scorer of all time in Test cricket, saying he had been inspired by the Ashes winners of 2005 was music to my ears. That's why we play cricket - to leave a legacy, and leave something behind to inspire younger generations, still gives you goosebumps. 'I think back to 2005 with 10,000 people being turned away from the final day at Old Trafford, people bunking off work or school to watch the finale at The Oval and, yes, it was the best of times. 'When I look at footage of the open-top bus parade to Trafalgar Square, and none of us look sober, in the social media age we would probably have been crucified but I genuinely can't remember anyone giving us any stick. We went round the Prime Minister's house a bit worse for wear, went to Trafalgar Square for the parade a bit bleary-eyed and went back to Lord's for a reception in a state of disrepair - but nobody minded because we were winners.' Hoggard hopes Stokes' side will turn up cooking on the front burner on Thursday after a nerve-jangling climax in 2005 was only settled by Kevin Pietersen's audacious 158 on the final afternoon. 'We had gone 2-1 up at Trent Bridge in an unbearably tense finish when I was hiding under towels and trembling in the physio's room, unable to watch as the wickets fell as we chased 129 to win,' Hoggard who is now working as one of the UK's leading Motivational Speakers, told Mirror Sport. 'But when it was my turn to bat, with 13 runs still needed and Brett Lee's bowling 95mph rockets, you switch on and it gets easier - because you're the one who is empowered to take charge and get the job done. 'Lee was either trying to kill me or york me, but when he got one wrong and I managed to send it to the extra cover boundary I think Vaughany (captain Michael Vaughan) nearly fell off the balcony. I'm not sure he'd ever seen me hit an extra cover drive before. 'As Ashley Giles, who hit the winning runs, and I walked off, he said, 'Enjoy the moment, we're kings for the night.' He was right - our pace attack was called the Fab Four but it was really a fab five because Gilo was the forgotten man of that bowling unit. He was immense. 'But when we got to The Oval for the final Test, the nerves took over again. The night before I was out for dinner with my wife and I was so uptight I called for the bill and walked out. My head was all over the place, I'm afraid I was a bit of a t**t.' England's pace attack was detained in the field 143 overs as they chased victory in vain at Old Trafford, and Hoggard warned: 'It's going to be survival of the fittest and it reminds me of 2005. You can't go to The Oval and play for a draw because you'll come unstuck if the mentality isn't right. 'In an ideal world we bat first, go big and put India under pressure to match us or go past us. England have more gears in the batting line-up than India, especially if they are going to be without Rishabh Pant. 'It's been hard graft for bowlers on both sides, but we score quicker than India and if they have to put their foot down to chase the game, that's when The Oval can be a tricky customer.'

Saltburn star transforms into Frankenstein's monster
Jacob Elordi's performance as a dashing English aristocrat in 2023's Saltburn that cemented his place as a Hollywood heartthrob. But now the Australian actor has shunned typecasting to transform himself into Frankenstein's monster for a new adaptation of Mary Shelley's classic horror novel. The first picture of Elordi, 28, in director Guillermo del Toro 's Frankenstein shows him pale-faced and scarred beneath a mask and hood, while the monster's roar and gravelly voice featured in a trailer released last month. Elordi, who also found prominence in the American drama series Euphoria, said he took inspiration from Boris Karloff's original portrayal of the monster in the 1930s. He told Vanity Fair: 'I devoured all of his monsters. At first I thought, I'll stay away from this. I want to do my own thing. And then I asked Guillermo, 'Should I watch the other Frankensteins?' And he goes, 'What the f--- do you mean?' I was like, 'Well, I don't want it to be influenced.' 'He says, 'My friend, it's a movie, it can't f---ing hurt you.' I went home, and I just binged them. 'Something in his gaze, something in the way that he moves…. The biggest thing was just immersing myself in the world of these creatures.' Shelley's 1818 novel Frankenstein; or The Modern Prometheus, tells the story of Victor Frankenstein, a young scientist, who creates the monster in a scientific experiment that involves putting it together with different body parts. Frankenstein's monster has since appeared in more than 300 feature films. Notable portrayals have included Karloff's bolt-necked monster in Frankenstein (1931), Bride of Frankenstein (1935) and Son of Frankenstein (1939), and Robert De Niro's take on the character in Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (1994). In del Toro's adaptation, which is set for a November release, Victor is played by Oscar Isaac while Mia Goth, Christoph Waltz, and Charles Dance feature in supporting roles. Andrew Garfield, the Oscar-nominated English actor, was originally cast as the monster but was forced to drop out because of scheduling problems. Elordi, whose 6ft 5in frame is closer to the 8ft monster described by Shelley than Garfield's 5ft 10in, was quickly recruited. Del Toro said: 'Andrew Garfield stepping out and Jacob coming in. I mean, it was like Jacob is the most perfect actor for the creature, and we have a supernaturally good connection. It's like, very few words. Very few things I have to say, and he does it.' Mike Hill, the film's make-up artist, added: 'What attracted me to him was his gangliness and his wrists. It was this looseness. 'Then he has these real sombre moments where he watches you really deftly, and his eyelids are low, with the long lashes like Karloff. I was like, 'I don't know who else you could get with a physicality like this'. 'His demeanour is innocent, but it's encompassed in a 6ft 5in frame. He could really do a lot of damage if this man really wanted to be a bad guy.' Elordi earned a Bafta best supporting actor nomination after starring as Felix Catton in Emerald Fennell's Saltburn. He also portrayed Elvis Presley in Sofia Coppola's biographical drama Priscilla and played the lead role in a miniseries adaptation of the novel The Narrow Road to the Deep North.
