Katie Price has declared that her husband, Lee Andrews, is set to be released from a Dubai prison within days, expressing her eagerness to reunite with him. The 48-year-old former glamour model has been in Dubai attempting to locate Andrews, who has been held at Al Awir Central Prison for several weeks.
Initially, Andrews claimed he had been kidnapped, but it later emerged he was detained on fraud allegations. Price has now spoken out about his disappearance, insisting she will never financially support him, despite reports that he needs £140,000 for release.
In an interview with The Sun, Price stated: 'He is coming out, I can't wait to see him, can't wait to have our chats, and he should be out next week, but knowing that, knowing what prisons are like even in England, you never know.' She added: 'I've made it clear to Lee, I will never give him money, I'll never give a man money, I've done it all my life, I've always been the breadwinner. My divorces, I'm the one that always has to give. I said to Lee I'll never do it.'
Price also revealed she never feared Andrews had ghosted her when he missed a scheduled Good Morning Britain interview. She had contacted a specialist UK team over kidnap fears. 'I've never thought Lee's ghosted me, because I know how close we are,' she said. 'You always think of scenarios, but our relationship isn't like that.'
Initially, authorities told Price she needed to pay £6,500 for Andrews' release. However, she later learned of a third case awaiting a court date, reportedly related to property.
Lee Andrews' Controversies Since Marrying Katie Price
Misleading Claims of Wealth
When Price introduced Andrews as her partner, he portrayed himself as a multi-millionaire CEO of Aura Group Future Urban Travel 2027 and an investor in SpaceX Hybrid Fitness. His social media profile featured photos of him with celebrities like Elon Musk and Kim Kardashian, but these were later exposed as AI-generated fakes, and his company had no verifiable information.
Travel Ban
After their Dubai wedding, Price returned to the UK alone. Andrews was reportedly banned from leaving Dubai due to a fraud investigation involving a £200,000 mortgage taken out in his ex-girlfriend's name. He initially denied the ban but later Price confirmed it.
Fake Pregnancy Tease
Early in their relationship, Price and Andrews hinted at a pregnancy, with Price urging followers to pay £2.99 for pregnancy test results. She later confirmed she was not pregnant.
Fraud Allegations from Exes
After their marriage, two ex-girlfriends accused Andrews of being a 'liar, narcissist, and manipulator.' One called him the 'Tinder Swindler,' claiming he scammed multiple women for money.
Disappearance and 'Ghosting'
When Andrews failed to return to the UK, Price feared kidnapping. Reports later claimed he was squatting in a villa in Dubai using a burner phone. Price now says she needs time to think about their relationship but cannot end it without speaking to him.
