Katie Price's husband, Lee Andrews, posted a heartfelt love note to his wife as she performed at an event in Ireland over the weekend, while he sought emergency shelter at their home in Dubai amidst missile attacks. The 47-year-old former glamour model and mother-of-five, who shocked fans by marrying the 43-year-old businessman last month after a whirlwind one-week romance, was appearing at the Gossies 2026 in Ireland.
Romantic Social Media Posts Amidst Turmoil
Lee shared a snap of Katie on stage with the caption 'coming in hot' and a quote that read: 'F**k normal. I want magic.' Gushing over their connection, he added underneath: 'Love having this with you Katie.' This public display of affection came as Dubai faced significant danger, with explosions rocking the iconic Palm Jumeirah hotel on Saturday due to Iranian missile strikes.
Missile Attacks and Safety Concerns
An Iranian missile hit Dubai's famous hotel as Tehran launched widespread revenge attacks across the Middle East following US airstrikes. Missiles fired by Tehran have struck US military bases in Qatar and have also rained down on Abu Dhabi, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Israel. Videos posted on social media show Dubai's Palm Jumeirah ablaze after being hit by a suspected Iranian missile or missile debris, heightening safety concerns for residents like Lee.
Katie's Return to the UK
Katie finally returned to the UK to face her family on Thursday, dressed in a grey crop top and tracksuit bottoms. She was flanked by two members of staff who helped with her luggage before she got into a £300,000 chauffeur-driven Rolls-Royce Cullinan with a personalised HR 7 number plate. Despite Lee's insistence that he would be returning to the UK with Katie this week, he was nowhere to be seen, though he did take to social media to discuss their baby plans again, sharing an image of a baby's bottle with the words: 'What are your plans for next year?'
Controversies and Legal Issues
The couple had been enjoying their time in Dubai, where Lee lives, but he has been slapped with claims that he is on a flight ban and not allowed to leave. In recent days, he has continued to state that he will join Katie in the UK, despite frequent claims from his ex, Alana Percival, that he is legally bound to the UAE. Since they wed, Katie has returned home alone twice, despite Lee insisting he would join her both times. There were also assertions that they would be going on a honeymoon together, but they remained in Dubai.
Lee previously claimed he returned to his Lincolnshire hometown for Christmas, but Alana mocked his recent social media posts, including footage of the businessman racing horses along what he claims to be the Skegness coastline. Remarkably, the sun is high and the sky is clear in the videos, despite much of England being battered by torrential rain and fierce wind since the turn of the year. Reposting the clip, she said: 'People of Skegness watching this asking where exactly is this tropical upgrade?'
Allegations and Denials
A second video, in which Andrews claims to be freezing while driving in 'his mum's car,' was also savaged by Percival, who previously accused him of being 'physically and mentally abusive' during their relationship. Commenting on the clip, she wrote: 'When you put on a woolly hat in an underground car park in Dubai to pretend you're in the UK.' While Andrews has presented himself as a high-flying business mogul, the Daily Mail revealed that he has been banned from leaving Dubai after spending three weeks locked up in a UAE jail for allegedly forging his ex-girlfriend's signature to secure a £200,000 loan. He allegedly applied for a mortgage in personal trainer Dina Taji's name last year without her consent.
Lee told the Daily Mail it was 'complete b******s' that he couldn't leave. He and Katie maintain that they are very much in love and that he will be coming to the UK soon to have a bigger wedding with family and friends. Her five children are yet to meet the businessman, but Princess, 18, and Junior, 20, said on This Morning this week that the family are 'happy as long as she's happy.' Asked if they had met their mum's new husband yet, Princess said: 'I've not met him.' Junior quickly chimed in, as Princess nodded along: 'Our mum is her own person, she's her own woman, she's going to do what she's going to do, and at the end of the day, we're supportive of her as long as she's happy.' 'As long as she's happy, that's all I care about,' Junior added, as Princess chimed in: 'If she's happy, we're happy.'
