Katie Price and Lee Andrews Seal Legal Marriage Despite Family Warnings
Katie Price, the former glamour model, has reportedly entered into a legally binding marriage with Dubai-based businessman Lee Andrews, following their ceremonial wedding in Dubai at the end of January. This development comes amid significant family concerns and public scrutiny over the rapid nature of their relationship.
Legal Ceremony Confirmed Amidst Controversy
Records indicate that Katie Price, 47, and Lee Andrews registered their marriage on February 17, making their union official in the eyes of the law. This legal step follows their initial wedding ceremony in Dubai, which was described as purely ceremonial. The couple has faced criticism and warnings from family members, who expressed apprehension due to the short duration of their courtship, reportedly only a matter of weeks.
In images shared by The Sun, Katie and Lee were seen holding hands during the ceremony, affirming their vows. Lee Andrews further confirmed their legal status on his Instagram story, posting a video of Katie punching a boxing bag with the caption: 'Beating the odds to all those that didn’t believe we are legally married and it’s true love at first sight.'
Family Concerns and Public Reactions
Katie Price's family has voiced serious concerns about the marriage. Sources reveal that her family was 'concerned' as they had 'only known each other for a matter of weeks.' Additionally, reports suggest that Lee Andrews is 'banned' from leaving the country, adding to the unease. Katie's daughter, Princess Andre, 18, has been particularly vocal, expressing a desire to 'save' her mum from the marriage.
In an interview with The Sun, Princess Andre stated: 'She’s crazy but it’s my mum... I mean, if she’s happy, I’m happy. No, I haven’t met Lee, and, yes, I’ve seen mum since she got married.' Princess will discuss her mother's four marriages on the first episode of her ITV reality show, highlighting the emotional toll of Katie's past relationships. She added: 'I’ve seen first-hand what heartbreak can look like, and my mum is the prime example. She’s had so many people do her wrong, and growing up seeing that has given me an eye-opener of what people can really be like.'
Hints at Future Plans and Business Background
The couple has hinted at expanding their family, with Katie Price posting a bombshell statement on Instagram: 'Please just enjoy watching us build our empire as I’m having his child. I’ll enjoy the ride and big d**k energy now I’m in the saddle.' Lee Andrews echoed this sentiment on his Instagram story, posting a picture by the pool in Dubai with the caption: 'Perfect couple soon to be triple.'
Lee Andrews is described as a self-proclaimed multimillionaire and the CEO of Aura Group Future Urban Travel 2027, as well as an 'Investor in Space X Hybrid Fitness.' However, his business ventures have been questioned, with reports suggesting they may be a sham, despite claims of endorsements from figures like Elon Musk and Kim Kardashian.
Broader Context and Public Interest
This marriage marks Katie Price's ninth engagement and adds to her history of high-profile relationships. She is already a mother to five children, including Harvey, who lives in supported care, and Princess and Junior, whom she co-parents with ex-husband Peter Andre. The public and media continue to follow the story closely, with ongoing coverage of the couple's actions and family dynamics.
The legal marriage of Katie Price and Lee Andrews underscores the complexities of celebrity relationships, blending personal decisions with public scrutiny and family interventions. As the couple moves forward, their journey remains a focal point of entertainment news, reflecting broader themes of love, trust, and resilience in the public eye.
