Lee Andrews, husband of Katie Price, has reportedly been arrested again in Dubai just one month after his release from Al Awir prison. According to journalist Ellie Henman, Andrews had his head shaved upon arrival at the prison due to concerns over lice. Henman, who has faced threats of legal action from Andrews over her exposés of his alleged conman behavior, also stated that his hairpiece was discarded.
Andrews, who refers to himself as a millionaire businessman, is reportedly bragging that his release is imminent, claiming he has paid the £120,000 fine he faced. A source told The Sun that Andrews had informed a friend of his arrest and suggested Katie Price might need to bail him out, also mentioning the need to raise funds via a GoFundMe page. He had reportedly been stressed in the days leading up to his arrest, believing he owed money.
This latest development follows Andrews' previous detention in Al Awir prison for fraud allegations, though he maintains he was captured at gunpoint and suspected of espionage. He has publicly denied any fraud charges, accusing his ex-fiancée Alana of spreading false stories. Andrews described an incident where he was allegedly taken to the Qatar border at gunpoint and assaulted.
Previously, Andrews disappeared after Katie Price initially claimed he had been kidnapped, only for it to emerge he was being held in Al Awir prison. Investigations by the Daily Mail revealed that Andrews had taken out a £200,000 mortgage in his ex-girlfriend Dina Taji's name without her knowledge. Taji subsequently took legal action against him, leading to a travel ban from Dubai. She has reportedly warned Price about her husband.
Further accusations include claims from ex-girlfriend Crystal Janke, who alleges Andrews conned her out of £123,000 with a promise of a substantial return on investment. His ex-fiancée Alana Percival has also issued warnings on social media. Andrews has denied all these allegations.
