Katie Price has showcased a substantial new addition to her extensive tattoo collection, revealing a large and intricate shoulder design. This latest inking comes mere days after the former glamour model exchanged vows with her new husband, Lee Andrews, in a whirlwind weekend ceremony.
Fresh Ink Follows Matrimonial Celebrations
The newlywed took to her Snapchat stories to display the brand new artwork, which features a detailed arrangement of gems and pearls. Photographs indicate the lower portion of the design has been fully inked, while the upper section remains in the stencilled stage, awaiting completion. This reveal follows a period of pampering for Price after her recent return to the United Kingdom from Dubai.
Matching Hand Tattoos Symbolise New Union
Price and Andrews solidified their rapid romance with matching hand tattoos shortly before their wedding. The couple each had the other's name permanently etched onto the back of their hands, accompanied by the numbers "11:11". This specific numerical sequence is widely recognised as an angel number, often associated with themes of love, spiritual awakening, and the commencement of new life chapters.
The marriage to Lee Andrews represents Katie Price's fourth trip down the aisle and her ninth engagement overall. Her history with commemorative tattoos for partners is well-documented. She possesses ink paying tribute to former husband Peter Andre and ex-fiancé Leandro Penna, although these particular designs have since been covered up. Notably, she also has a portrait of ex-partner Carl Woods tattooed on her arm.
A Comprehensive Collection of Body Art
Katie Price's body art portfolio is vast and deeply personal. Beyond her latest shoulder piece and the new hand tattoos, her collection includes:
- A garter tattoo situated on her thigh.
- A crown symbolising her daughter, Princess Andre.
- Individual heart designs dedicated to her sons, Harvey and Junior.
- A heart-shaped tattoo on her bottom, a six-hour procedure completed just before Christmas.
- A rose design that now covers the name of her ex-husband, Peter Andre. Previously, she had marked the end of that marriage by tattooing an 'X' over his name.
Additional tattoos among her more than twenty pieces include wings on her back, a bow on her hip, the initials H and J, a microphone, a heartbeat on her right wrist, and a pony adorned with a ribbon.
Addressing the Distance: A Temporary Separation
Following the wedding festivities, Katie Price returned to the UK ahead of her new husband. Lee Andrews addressed their temporary separation via Instagram, dispelling any rumours of discord. He explained that Price needed to return for her children, while he remained in Dubai to finalise some personal matters.
"I'm going to be joining Katie in the UK tomorrow," Andrews stated. "I've had to wrap up a few things here and she had to get back for her children because she's a good mother and she's lovely like that. We are so happy." He confirmed their wedding rings were proudly worn and their matching tattoos remained intact, signing off his message with "Love you lots".
The couple's relationship has progressed at a remarkable pace, with their engagement and marriage occurring within just a couple of days, shortly after Price confirmed her split from JJ Slater less than a month prior.
