Katie Price's New Husband's Modest Dubai Bungalow Contradicts £36M Mansion Claims
Katie Price's new husband, Lee Andrews, reportedly resided in a modest, rundown bungalow in Dubai with his father just weeks before marrying the former glamour model. This revelation starkly contrasts with Price's assertions that Andrews recently splashed out £36 million on a lavish mansion in the city, casting further doubt on his purported multi-millionaire status.
Discovery of the Humble Residence
The Daily Mail has uncovered the bungalow that businessman Lee Andrews frequently visited, located on a quiet residential street near a six-lane highway in Dubai. The white, one-storey property is situated in Al Bada'a, a multicultural area popular with families, where it is sandwiched between larger and much newer apartment blocks. The soaring towers of Jumeirah and Dubai Marina dominate the backdrop, yet this setting is a far cry from the glittering advertisements depicting Dubai's dazzling metropolis.
Living in this modest bungalow with his father, despite claiming to be a multi-millionaire, raises significant questions about Lee Andrews' authenticity. His new fiancée, Katie Price, is desperately trying to disprove these doubts. In a recent interview, Price, 47, claimed she had proof of Andrews' £36 million property purchase and other evidence of his alleged immense wealth. This response came after two of his ex-partners labeled him a compulsive liar and a conman.
Legal and Financial Red Flags
Further complicating matters, the Daily Mail reported that Andrews has been slapped with a travel ban after taking out a £200,000 mortgage in the name of another ex-partner without her knowledge. Now, with his 'real' home exposed, a friend of one of Andrews' exes hopes that Katie Price may begin to realise he isn't what he seems.
The source told the Daily Mail: 'Lee will say he's living in luxury and can afford to splash out on mega mansions, it's just who he is. But if he was as rich as he says he is, why is he living in a bungalow with his dad miles away from the hub of Dubai? He was living there only a few months ago and it's hardly the most sought-after property. Katie should take one look at this house and hopefully realise that sums up his real wealth.'
The bungalow itself lacks a rear garden, and a public footpath runs alongside the front of the property, potentially raising privacy concerns. A stack of tiles visible on the roof suggests previous repair work, adding to its unassuming appearance.
Allegations from Past Relationships
Lee Andrews' ex-fiancée, Alana Percival, 32, detailed her experiences with him this week, stating that he 'lied about everything' and she never saw any proof of his money, houses, or cars. Their nine-month relationship ended last November after he proposed in the same lavish manner as he did with Katie Price—at Dubai's five-star Burj Al Arab surrounded by rose petals.
Percival claims that Andrews typically stays in hotels or rents apartments, in addition to living in the small bungalow with his father. During their relationship, they shared a rented flat, but despite nearly a year together, she has no idea what Andrews does for a living. She alleges he fed her a web of lies about his income sources.
She said: 'I never knew where he was getting his money from. He used to tell me he was selling bombs, he was an arms dealer, he said that his ex-wife was Putin's niece, he told me he owned private jets and a yacht, and he lives in a massive house. I never saw the house, he never took me there, he would say, "I will, but I don't want to show you everything because I don't really know you". He's a Tinder Swindler. Lee has always wanted to be famous. He always said to me he's going to be the next Elon Musk; he said you've got to be insane, and he would say, and "I am insane".'
Turning Points and Further Accusations
Shortly after their engagement, Percival discovered Andrews was subject to a travel ban that prevented him from flying to the UK to celebrate with her family—a revelation she says marked a turning point. Soon after, she received messages from American woman Crystal Janke, who alleged she had been dating Andrews simultaneously and claimed he had taken £123,000 from her. These bombshell accusations abruptly ended Percival's whirlwind engagement.
Additionally, it was revealed that Andrews spent weeks in prison before his rapid relationship with Katie Price, a mother-of-five. Price, a former Loose Women star who has been married three times previously, shocked fans by marrying Andrews in January just two days after getting engaged. The couple formally registered their marriage on February 17 at Abu Dhabi's judicial department.
Katie Price's Defense and Family Concerns
Katie Price has so much trust in her new husband that she declined to sign a prenuptial agreement before their whirlwind wedding. The rushed nuptials were met with dismay from her family, and their fears intensified as stories about Andrews' shady business deals and past relationships became common knowledge.
Despite the many red flags, Price remains adamant that she has conducted due diligence on the businessman and is 'happier than ever'. She said: 'Of course my family are going to worry, I wouldn't expect anything different. They love me and they've seen me go through so much heartache, and the most horrific times. So I don't blame them for being p***ed off and angry. They love me and I love them too. But I'm not a kid anymore, I am 47, I can make my own choices, and I will. They have to give me that chance to go and find out for myself.'
She added: 'I am the happiest I've ever been because I love myself. And if you don't love yourself, you can't love anyone else. I've learned now that I don't need a man. I always used to need a man in my life, whereas now I don't need a man, I just want one. So yes, I can reassure everyone at home that I haven't gone for a conman. I haven't gone for a scammer. There was no love bombing. I've gone for a beautiful human being who genuinely makes me happy, who I'm so in love with.'
However, the stark contrast between Lee Andrews' modest bungalow in a run-down part of Dubai and Katie Price's claims of his multimillionaire status and recent mansion purchase in the UAE continues to fuel skepticism and public scrutiny.
