Katie Price has issued a statement addressing ongoing speculation about her marriage to Lee Andrews, confirming that he is stepping away from social media for the time being. The 47-year-old former model took to her own social media account on Friday afternoon to share the news, explaining that the couple has decided to keep their relationship more private amid intense public scrutiny.
Statement Details
In her post, Price wrote: "Due to all the madness of trolling, people's speculation and media frenzy that as a married couple we have both decided @wesleeandrews is taking a break from social media and we are keeping things between us for now as it's our life and marriage and are very happy." The statement comes after weeks of rumors about the state of their marriage, which have been fueled by Andrews' absence from social media and lack of public appearances with Price.
Public Reaction
Fans and followers have expressed mixed reactions to the announcement. Some have shown support for the couple's decision to prioritize their privacy, while others continue to speculate about the reasons behind the social media hiatus. Price has not provided further details about the nature of the "trolling" or "media frenzy" she referenced, but she emphasized that the couple is happy and united.
This is not the first time Price has addressed public speculation about her personal life. She has previously spoken out about the challenges of living in the spotlight and the impact it can have on relationships. The couple, who married in 2023, have generally kept a low profile compared to Price's earlier high-profile relationships.
As of now, Lee Andrews has not made any personal statement regarding his social media break, and it remains unclear when or if he will return to public platforms. Price's statement appears to be an attempt to quell rumors and reaffirm their commitment to each other away from the public eye.
