Katie Price, 48, and her husband Lee Andrews, 43, were seen frolicking in a pool in Dubai, with Price playfully draping herself over Andrews. During the poolside exchange, documented on Andrews' Instagram, the couple debated the possibility of creating joint video messages for fans. Price remarked on their public image, stating, "I know we're the most hated people... actually saying that people love me as well." Andrews responded, "people love you, people hate me," to which Price agreed, "they do hate you." Andrews countered, "they just don't know the story do they."
Andrews has been a controversial figure since his marriage to Price in January. He has faced accusations from ex-partners regarding alleged scams. Most recently, he was reportedly detained in Al-Awir prison in Dubai due to fraud allegations, though he claims he was captured at gunpoint and suspected of espionage. On Friday, Andrews posted a selfie with Price, captioning it, "Britain's bad boy Lee Andrews agrees to live TV lie detector test."
The latest accusations involve an Iranian woman who claims Andrews defrauded her of approximately £5,000. According to The Sun, the woman met Andrews in January, seeking assistance with a property investment visa. She allegedly gave him 26,000 AED, equivalent to over £5,000, for his purported connections to immigration officials. Months later, with no visa secured, her friend Daniel attempted to recover the funds. Daniel told The Sun that the woman was vulnerable and trusted Andrews. He confronted Andrews at his hotel, who claimed he was only trying to help and that there was nothing in it for him. Daniel stated that Andrews never showed up for promised meetings and that the money was never returned, with Andrews claiming he did not have it and it was to be transferred via bank, despite being paid in cash.
This follows warnings from two of Andrews' ex-partners who have advised Price to be cautious. In January, the Daily Mail reported that Andrews allegedly took out a £200,000 mortgage in his ex-fiancée Dina Taji's name without her knowledge, leading to legal action and a travel ban from Dubai for Andrews. Taji reportedly met with Price to warn her about her husband. Andrews has denied these claims, questioning the logistics and benefit of such an action.
Another ex, Crystal Janke, 40, alleged that Andrews convinced her to invest £123,000 in his company with a promised return of £1 million. Alana Percival, another ex-fiancée, also issued warnings on social media. Andrews has denied these allegations.
Sources have indicated that Andrews faces potential return to prison if he fails to pay outstanding debts within two weeks. Documents reveal debts including £54,000 for a rental car and £15,000 to a UAE legal firm. A representative for Andrews told The Sun that he appeared before the court and requested 14 days to settle the debt, stating his wife was out of the country and he could not access his bank account. A source added that Andrews believes he can raise the capital himself and that Price has been supportive but has not paid his debts.
