Reality television star and former glamour model Katie Price has unveiled the beginnings of a substantial new tattoo on her shoulder, mere days after entering into a whirlwind marriage with businessman Lee Andrews in Dubai. The 47-year-old celebrity, who has a well-documented history of body art and high-profile relationships, shared glimpses of the intricate design in progress, with the lower portion already inked and the upper half stencilled onto her skin.
Matching Ink and a Rapid Romance
This latest addition to her extensive collection follows closely on the heels of her nuptials to Andrews over the weekend, an event that surprised many of her followers. The couple celebrated their union by acquiring fresh, matching tattoos on their hands. Katie now bears Lee's name on the back of her hand, while he sports hers, both accompanied by the number sequence 11 11.
This specific numerical pattern is often referred to as an 'angel number,' widely interpreted within spiritual circles as a symbol of love, profound connections, and alignment with one's true life purpose. Its selection by the pair strongly suggests that Katie, despite four previous marriages and a total of nine engagements, believes Andrews represents her destined partner. The number is also associated with new beginnings, a theme that resonates with the start of this latest chapter in her personal life.
A History of Tattoo Tributes and Cover-Ups
Katie Price is no stranger to commemorating romantic partners through permanent ink, though her past choices have not always stood the test of time. She has previously had tattoos dedicated to ex-husband Peter Andre and former fiancé Leandro Penna, both of which she later had covered up with new designs. In a more dramatic gesture, she once had the face of ex-partner Carl Woods tattooed on her arm.
Her body art portfolio, which numbers over twenty pieces, includes significant work such as a full back piece of angel wings completed last year. Other notable tattoos pay homage to her family: a crown for her daughter Princess, 18; red hearts and stars on her wrist for her sons Harvey and Junior; and the initials H and J on the back of her neck. She also sports a garter on her thigh, a rose used to cover Andre's name, and various symbolic designs including bows and a heartbeat.
Concerns Raised by a Former Partner
The rapid progression of Katie's relationship with Lee Andrews, whom she reportedly met just days before their Dubai wedding after connecting on social media, has drawn public commentary. Alana Percival, who describes herself as Andrews's ex-girlfriend, has issued stark warnings via Instagram, directly tagging Katie Price.
Percival alleges that Andrews is a 'lying swindler' and claims to possess proof of his deceit, urging Katie to 'run for the hills.' She shared that after her own engagement to Andrews—which featured an identical setup at the Jumeirah Burj Al Arab hotel—she was contacted by his estranged wife and other former partners who labelled him a liar. Percival also suggested that the Cartier engagement ring used to propose to Katie may have been repurposed from her own relationship with Andrews.
Despite these allegations, which have been reported in the media, Katie Price appears to be embracing this new relationship with characteristic fervour, as evidenced by the permanent tattoos now linking her to Lee Andrews. The Daily Mail has contacted representatives for both parties for comment on the developing story.
