Katie Price's Desperate Next Step After Revealing 'Truth' About Pregnancy
Katie Price has been teasing fans for weeks about a potential pregnancy, less than a full month after meeting and marrying her husband, Lee Andrews. The star, who has openly expressed her desire for more children, left followers stunned last week by claiming she is already expecting a baby with her new spouse.
In a social media post targeting Lee's ex-girlfriend, Alana Percival, Katie declared, "I'm having his child." However, a representative for Katie has since clarified to the press that she is not pregnant. A source explains, "She's teasing fans and playing along because she hopes to be pregnant soon." This revelation came as Katie responded to Alana, who had previously warned Katie off Lee, branding him a "lying swindler."
Social Media Feud and Family Concerns
In her online rant, Katie, 47, defended Lee, writing, "Alana I know rejection doesn't feel nice and I'm married to Lee Andrews the man you want and will never have again." She accused Alana of bitterness and added, "At least I'm the real woman he has found and deserves, but please just enjoy watching us build our empire as I'm having his child." Lee, 43, joined in by captioning a photo of the couple, "Perfect couple, soon to be triple."
Despite the public display, Katie's friends and family are reportedly struggling to find joy in her baby banter, especially given the short duration of her relationship with businessman Lee. A source reveals, "Family members are very worried, but she won't listen to anyone. They think it's really irresponsible. She barely knows this guy. There are lots of reasons for them to be concerned."
Plans to Monetise Motherhood on YouTube
In a further twist, a source claims that Katie, a mother-of-five, hopes to cash in on any future pregnancy by streaming the entire process, including the birth, on YouTube. The insider states, "Katie would love to follow in the footsteps of the Kardashians and film all the ins and outs of the pregnancy and the birth. She's thinking how she can make money from this and she's telling people she will give birth on YouTube."
The source adds that this strategy is already generating attention, with people subscribing to her channel out of curiosity. "She's stirring up a lot of attention, so it's already working – people are talking about her and she posted about how many YouTube views she's been getting."
Denial of Violence and Past Fertility Struggles
Recently, Katie leapt to Lee's defence by denying reports that he punched Kerry Katona's boyfriend, Paolo Margaglione, during an argument in Dubai. She clarified on Instagram Stories, "One thing I will clear up, there has not been any punch-up, punches thrown, between Lee and Paolo." She emphasised Lee's non-aggressive nature and announced plans for a second wedding in the UK, with Kerry and Paolo as special guests.
Katie's pregnancy tease is particularly surprising given her documented struggles with fertility. In 2023, she starred in a Channel 4 docuseries, Katie Price: Making Babies, which followed her IVF journey with then-fiancé Carl Woods. The programme highlighted her dwindling hormone levels and egg supply, markers of limited fertility in later years.
In February last year, she suffered a "devastating" miscarriage after naturally conceiving with ex-boyfriend JJ Slater, despite being told she had just a 1% chance. She has vowed to keep trying for a sixth child until medically unable. Now, with plans to build a business around any future pregnancy, Katie appears intent on monetising motherhood as she embarks on a new chapter with Lee.
A source concludes, "She needs to earn money and this is like the last hurrah. She and Lee will both be in it together. It's a recipe for disaster." Katie has since confirmed she is not currently pregnant, stating in an online clip, "So everyone, do you want to know the answer? Here's the answer. No, I'm not pregnant – but one day I will be."
