Katie Price runs errands with son Harvey while husband Lee Andrews remains stuck in Dubai as her ‘inner doubts’ about their whirlwind marriage are revealed

by

Katie Price and her son Harvey were out and about on Wednesday, while her new husband, Lee Andrews, was still in Dubai. This came as reports surfaced suggesting she had some reservations about their quick marriage.

Oh my gosh, I’m still reeling! Katie, you go girl! I mean, our Katie – the absolute icon – she’s 47 and still turning heads! And she just married someone! Can you believe it? A businessman, 41 years old, and it all happened so fast! Like, a week! A WEEK! They jetted off to Dubai and just…did it! I’m obsessed, honestly. It’s so unexpected and amazing, I can’t stop thinking about it!

She’s returned to the UK for work and was spotted in Brighton this week with her 23-year-old son, Harvey, whom she shares with her former partner, Dwight Yorke. They were seen walking together holding hands.

Katie seemed happy and comfortable, wearing a large white sweatshirt and sweatpants with a Marc Jacobs bag.

Despite the recent Iranian missile attacks, Lee is still in the UAE and has been sharing affectionate posts with his partner on Instagram this week.

Katie went out shortly after Lee’s former partner strongly warned her, calling the businesswoman a ‘parasite’ and claiming she’ll ‘ruin her life’.

Alana Percival, 32, shared with the Daily Mail her belief that Lee, who reportedly has a lot of money, is using Katie to get attention and feel good about himself – something Percival claims he’s always wanted.

The personal trainer is now sharing, for the first time, what she says Katie told her after finding out Lee had proposed to Alana. Katie was upset because Lee had proposed in the exact same way – with rose petals – at the luxurious Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai, just 16 weeks prior.

Alana says she repeatedly tried to warn Katie about Lee, even offering to meet and present clear evidence of his true character. However, she feels Katie didn’t listen to her concerns.

She described Lee as deeply manipulative and destructive, saying he slowly takes over a person’s mind and spirit, leaving them feeling empty and lost. She felt he completely drains people of their essence.

Let me tell you, dealing with that man was incredibly damaging. From the very beginning, it was clear he wasn’t truthful, and honestly, it felt deeply upsetting. He presented a certain image, but it was all a facade. I truly believe he was a very unhappy person who felt the need to constantly fabricate stories. I always suspected there was more to the story, and I never once saw any evidence to support his claims of wealth – no houses, no cars, nothing. It was a really difficult experience, and I’ve definitely learned a valuable lesson about trusting my instincts.

Katie and Lee met on Instagram and quickly fell in love. They were married just ten days after their first face-to-face meeting.

Although she had doubts – which she shared with a friend named Alana – she refused to sign a pre-nuptial agreement. Alana says she’s not the only woman he’s mistreated, and that many others have been deceived by him as well.

Alana said: ‘Katie reached out to me via a friend. We spoke on the phone. 

She confessed she didn’t know what to think, and I assured her the situation was clear. I promised to show her all the evidence and told her I was glad we’d met. I warned her he would hurt and ultimately destroy her.

I warned her that he was broke and had cheated many people. I then invited her to spend an afternoon with me.

Lee is making me look like an unstable ex-partner, but I understand why – I can see the situation Katie is in and how he’s manipulating her.

She’s been tricked by his lies and is now participating in them, likely because she’s embarrassed and doesn’t want to appear foolish. I’m truly concerned about her well-being.

Alana, who broke up with Lee last November after dating for nine months, says she received a threatening video showing Lee and Katie. She thinks the video was meant to scare her into staying silent about what happened between them.

Alana was too upset to fully explain the video, which she claims was sent from her ex, Lee. She described the clip as humiliating and said it was just another tactic he used to manipulate her.

Lee sent me a really upsetting and humiliating video through WhatsApp. It was taken on his phone and was very disrespectful.

‘Lee’s exes have always stayed quiet and moved forward, but I’ve been public about my experience.

He’s attempting to frighten me into silence and prevent me from speaking openly. Essentially, he’s trying to suppress my voice, and he sent this message not just to me, but also to my father.

In a related matter, Alana disclosed that she has reported Lee to the police in the UK. Lee is currently unable to leave Dubai because he was jailed last year for fraudulently obtaining a £200,000 loan by forging his former girlfriend’s signature.

She stated that she filed a lawsuit against Lee last week. She’s also reported the situation to the police, provided a statement, and Interpol is now investigating.

I’m really concerned about Katie. She’s always been a bit fragile, and while we’ve both made our share of mistakes, I truly believe she has a good heart. I just hope things work out for her.

In a recent interview, Katie stated she’s seen proof of Lee’s wealth, claiming he bought his £36 million Dubai home with cash. However, Alana disputes this, saying the property doesn’t exist.

Alana claims Lee doesn’t have a permanent home, instead renting apartments, staying in hotels, or living with his father in a dilapidated villa in Dubai. They did share a rental apartment while they were together.

She claims she still doesn’t know how Lee makes a living, and that he’s consistently lied to her about his job and income.

She confessed she had no idea how he earned his money. He claimed to be an arms dealer, selling weapons, and even boasted that his former wife was related to Putin. He led her to believe he was incredibly wealthy, owning private jets, a yacht, and a huge mansion.

He always promised to take me to the house, but never did. He explained that he didn’t want to share everything until he knew me better, so he kept putting it off.

He’s a con artist, like the ‘Tinder Swindler.’ Lee has always craved fame, constantly telling me he’d be the next Elon Musk. He’d say you have to be a little crazy to succeed, and he’d proudly declare, ‘I am!’

Katie and Lee’s quick relationship has upset Alana, with Katie even getting a tattoo of Lee’s name and introducing him to her ex-husband, Peter Andre, over FaceTime after nine years of no contact. This has resulted in a fallout with Alana, who is known as ‘The Pricey’.

Earlier this month, Katie harshly attacked Alana on Instagram, telling her to go away and calling her unimportant and annoying.

Look, I get it – rejection stings. It really does. And honestly, it’s a tough spot to be in when the person you’re interested in is with someone else – especially when that someone is my husband, Lee Andrews. I know it’s hard to accept, but he’s with me, and that’s not changing.

Your consistent dishonesty and negative comments reveal your deep unhappiness. It’s time for you to focus on your own life and well-being.

I understand what’s really going on, and your behavior is just making things worse. Please, try to maintain some self-respect. I’m fully aware of your character and past actions.

I’m just glad to be the genuine person he’s with and the mother of his child, so let’s focus on watching us succeed together.

It turned out Katie, who already has five children, isn’t pregnant with Lee’s baby. Alana thinks Katie pretended to be pregnant to upset her.

She explained that the baby announcement felt like a personal jab, referencing a past comment Lee had made about wanting to start a family with her.

‘It’s really sick to say you’re pregnant when you’re quite obviously not. 

She didn’t write the Instagram post herself, but she chose to share it.

Katie and I have a lot in common. We’ve both faced significant challenges and difficult experiences in our lives – more than most people do.

We’re not weak, just open to being hurt. Both of us simply want to feel loved. I had moved on after he disappeared – I’d blocked him everywhere and was trying to heal – but then I unexpectedly got pulled into their deception.

Alana first met Lee in March last year after the pair connected on Facebook. He struck up a conversation after noticing she had checked in at Dubai’s exclusive Kai Beach, where she had posted a photo revealing her location.

Alana says that at the beginning of their fast-moving relationship, Lee overwhelmed her with affection and gifts – lots of compliments and pricey designer items.

By September, the couple had decided to get married. Alana said Lee was enthusiastic about making their commitment official and wanted to get married quickly.

She started to have concerns when she found out he couldn’t travel to the UK to meet her family, and she says this was a key moment in their relationship.

Honestly, things were going so fast with Lee, it felt like a dream! Then, out of nowhere, this woman, Crystal Janke from America, messaged me saying she’d been seeing him at the same time as me! And she claimed he’d taken a huge amount of money – like, £123,000! – from her. It was a total shock, and it just…ended everything. Our engagement, everything we’d planned, just stopped right then and there. I was devastated, obviously.

From the very beginning, he was controlling. He showered me with compliments, constantly telling me I was beautiful and agreeing with everything I said. He seemed to be imitating me, and looking back, it felt incredibly calculated. Initially, I believed he was a genuinely good person.

Being in Dubai meant I was away from my family and usual friends, and things with Lee moved incredibly fast. We became very close very quickly – it wasn’t a typical relationship. He showered me with expensive gifts like Louis Vuitton and Cartier, and I even started buying myself jewelry during my lunch breaks. I really felt like I was living a fairytale.

Once I started questioning inconsistencies in his behavior, things became really unstable. He’d get upset and blame me for the issues, but I realized he knew I was onto him. From there, the situation just continued to deteriorate.

Whenever I tried to talk to him, he would become extremely angry, and it was a frightening experience. He became verbally abusive and crossed a boundary with me. When I returned home, my family was very upset by how distressed I looked.

Alana thought she’d gotten over her breakup with Lee, but she was shocked to see something online. A video recreating their engagement proposal had gone viral, only this time it featured reality TV star Katie instead of her.

Katie, who has four children – Harvey and Princess Andre from her relationship with Peter Andre, and Jett and Bunny from her marriage to Kieran Hayler – has been proposed to nine times. However, Alana felt her own proposal was a special, unique experience.

Discovering what she thought was a cherished memory being relived with someone else caused her significant pain.

I saw it and immediately realized it was my proposal… but then I saw Katie Price was there too! It was so strange, especially since it had only been about four months after the original event.

Honestly, it really bothered me. That experience felt so genuine and special to me. We were at the Burj Al Arab, and it was just magical – rose petals everywhere, a delicious lunch, and a relaxing spa day. It was truly beautiful, and it really impacted me emotionally.

It definitely hurt my feelings, and I was upset to find out it wasn’t original. He simply copied and pasted it – and it turns out he did the same thing to me sixteen weeks ago, even using my pictures. Katie probably doesn’t feel very special knowing that happened.

The Daily Mail has contacted Lee Andrews and Katie Price’s representative for comment.
