Kerry Katona's Boyfriend Exits Dubai Following Reported Physical Altercation with Katie Price's Husband
Kerry Katona's boyfriend, Paolo Margaglione, departed Dubai prematurely after an alleged physical confrontation with Katie Price's husband, Lee Andrews, during what was intended as a romantic getaway. The incident reportedly occurred while the couple joined Price and Andrews on their honeymoon, leading to a strained dynamic between the close friends.
Details of the Alleged Altercation in Dubai
Earlier this month, Kerry Katona, 45, and her partner Paolo Margaglione, 33, flew to Dubai to surprise Katie Price, 47, and her new husband Lee Andrews on their honeymoon. However, on Tuesday, reports emerged of a heated disagreement between the partners that escalated into a physical altercation at a public area of the hotel where Katona and Margaglione were staying.
An onlooker described the scene to The Sun, stating that Lee Andrews was engaged in a tense exchange with Katie Price, displaying aggressive behavior. When Paolo Margaglione intervened, Andrews reportedly became enraged, shouting at him before throwing punches, one of which struck Margaglione directly on the head. The altercation erupted quickly, leaving Katie Price visibly shocked, and Kerry Katona was not present during the incident.
Impact on Relationships and Holiday Plans
Insiders have suggested that this event has strained the long-standing friendship between Katie Price and Kerry Katona, which was recently showcased during their joint UK tour. Just days prior, Katona had written in her column about the holiday, describing it as a romantic getaway for their first Valentine's Day together. She revealed that they had only a brief 20-minute catch-up with Price and Andrews before Margaglione had to return to the UK due to a work emergency, leaving her alone in Dubai.
Despite the reports, the couple appeared together on Instagram on Tuesday night, lying in bed and hinting at an exciting announcement for the following week, with Margaglione referring to it as a "full 360-moment." This comes amid ongoing speculation about Katie Price's personal life, including her rapid marriage to Lee Andrews and recent claims about starting a family, which have raised concerns among her family members.
Background and Reactions
Katie Price stunned fans in January by announcing her engagement for the ninth time and marrying Dubai-based businessman Lee Andrews days later in a whirlwind romance. Since then, she has hinted at pregnancy, adding to the drama. Kerry Katona had previously expressed skepticism about the quick marriage, calling Price "absolutely bonkers" but vowing to support her regardless.
When contacted for comment, representatives for Kerry Katona and Paolo Margaglione declined to address the reports, while a spokesperson for Katie Price denied the allegations, stating the report was untrue. The incident highlights the volatile nature of celebrity relationships and the public scrutiny that follows their personal conflicts.
