Katie Price, the 48-year-old glamour model and media personality, has reportedly ended her ninth engagement to fiancé Lee Andrews after uncovering alleged financial deception. Sources claim Price discovered Andrews, a Dubai-based businessman, had only £2.22 in his bank account, contradicting his claims of being a millionaire.
Price, who married Andrews a week after meeting him, had reportedly been warned by his ex-girlfriends about his alleged history of conning individuals out of money. Despite these warnings, she proceeded with the relationship and subsequent marriage, which has been marred by drama, including Andrews's alleged prison stints, claims of kidnapping, and an assertion that he planned to purchase Chelsea Football Club.
It is understood that Price may have lost up to £100,000 through gifts and travel expenses related to her relationship with Andrews, who is currently imprisoned in Dubai. The couple's union, which began in January, has been subject to scrutiny, with reports of Andrews being held in a Dubai prison over suspected fraud.
Price had publicly declared eight weeks prior to these reports that she would not let a man hurt or destroy her again, stating that men had been the downfall of her life. However, her family had expressed concerns about her marrying Andrews.
Price's extensive romantic history includes nine engagements and four marriages. Notable past relationships include a brief fling with former Millwall striker Teddy Sheringham in 1996, followed by an engagement to Gladiator star Warren Furman. She also dated singer Dane Bowers from 1998 to 2000.
Her relationship with footballer Dwight Yorke resulted in the birth of her eldest son, Harvey, in 2002. Following this, she briefly dated Pop Idol contestant Gareth Gates. From 2002 to 2004, she was in a relationship with Scott Sullivan, which ended explosively when she began a romance with Peter Andre on "I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here!" in 2004.
Price and Andre married in 2005 and had two children, Junior and Princess, before divorcing in 2009. She then married MMA fighter Alex Reid in 2010, with their divorce finalized in 2012. Her fourth marriage was to stripper Kieran Hayler in 2013, with whom she has two children, Jett and Bunny. Their relationship was marked by infidelity allegations, and their divorce was finalized in 2021.
Following her divorce from Hayler, Price engaged in a relationship with personal trainer Kris Boyson, to whom she became engaged in 2019, though they later separated. She also had a brief relationship with businessman Alex Adderson and builder Charles Drury. In 2020, she began a relationship with car dealer Carl Woods, with whom she became engaged but they ultimately separated in 2023.
Most recently, before her engagement to Andrews, Price was in a relationship with "Married At First Sight UK" star JJ Slater, which ended after she reportedly did not see a future with him. This news of her split from Andrews comes shortly after her public declarations about seeking a new chapter free from male influence.
