Katie Price's family are reportedly horrified after learning that her husband, Lee Andrews, allegedly planned to sell a sex tape of the couple for £250,000 to pay off his debts. The 48-year-old former glamour model has been urged by loved ones to 'see sense' and end the relationship, which they describe as 'appalling'.
Lee Andrews' alleged scheme to sell intimate footage
According to a report by The Sun, Lee Andrews, who married Katie Price in January after just days of knowing her, allegedly told a friend that he could 'release my sex tape with my wife' for a 'pretty penny' while he was behind bars in Dubai. In a message sent earlier this month, before he was detained on fraud allegations, Andrews reportedly said: 'I need to get cash quickly. I've got some things to trade. I'm trying to sort out my OnlyFans.' He added: 'I could always release my sex tape with my wife, but it might go for a pretty penny. Yeah, there is a short one of that, but that's between you and me. So see if a newspaper will pay for that — quarter of a million f***ing quid...'
The publication claims that Andrews was warned that selling the content would be illegal, as it constitutes intimate image abuse or revenge porn, a criminal offence that can carry a prison sentence. After this, he backtracked, saying: 'I was not serious on that, mate. We have OnlyFans, we will do our thing on this.'
Katie Price's family reacts with horror
Katie Price's family reportedly see Andrews' latest scheme as the 'last straw' and are desperate for their relationship to end. 'They've been worried sick about her ever since she met Lee, and the longer she is with him, the more they fear for her well-being,' said an insider. 'Lee is prepared to stoop to the lowest low. It's terrible and alarming. The last thing she needs is to be with someone who will use her for money. It's appalling.' The source added that Katie's loved ones are relieved Andrews 'can't get into her head' while he's behind bars, noting that he will 'do anything' to become debt-free. 'His antics have driven everyone to the brink; they just don't know what he might do or say next.'
Katie Price's OnlyFans and denial of sex tape
A spokesperson for Katie Price told The Sun that no such sex tape exists. Price, formerly known as Jordan, joined OnlyFans in 2022 and has previously said her NSFW content earns her between £50,000 and £80,000 per month. However, she has refused to appear fully nude, citing her children, Junior (21) and Princess (19). 'If I did content every day, it's ridiculous money, but I'm so lazy with it... I'm not greedy either – I've had the Ferrari; I've had everything,' she said on Olivia Attwood's Getting Filthy Rich series.
Lee Andrews' legal troubles and father in prison
Lee Andrews was arrested for the second time in weeks last Friday, allegedly for owing £120,000. He had previously spent four weeks in Dubai's Al Awir prison over separate financial matters. Katie Price refused to pay the six-figure sum required for his release then but continued to support him. However, she has remained silent this time. In an 'astonishing' twist, The Sun reported that Andrews' father, Peter, is also facing fraud allegations and is in the same prison as his son. Katie Price has not commented on the latest developments.
Dog ownership controversy
Amid the legal drama, Katie Price faced backlash after purchasing a £2,000 pomsky dog just weeks ago, given her track record with pet ownership. She posted on Instagram Story that the dog was with a friend in the UAE and would travel to the UK soon. However, Lee Andrews' ex, Dina Taji, claimed the pup had been 'abandoned' and she had to 'rescue' him from a pet-sitter, saying she needed to 'save this dog now [that] this person [the owner] is in jail'.
