Katie Price's Whirlwind Wedding to Lee Andrews Sparks Regret and Revelations
Katie Price is reportedly grappling with the realisation that her impromptu marriage to Dubai-based businessman Lee Andrews might have been a "huge mistake". The former glamour model, 47, stunned fans last week by announcing her engagement to Lee, 41, just weeks after revealing her split from partner JJ Slater, 33, following a two-year relationship. However, the rapid union has been clouded by mounting concerns and explosive claims from her past.
Mounting Concerns Over Lee Andrews' Background
In the days since the wedding news broke, reports have surfaced alleging that Lee's business, Aura Group, is a "farce", while two of his ex-partners have urged Katie to "run for the hills", describing him as a "lying swindler who preys on women". These warnings have been compounded by Katie's own family, who were reportedly "blindsided" by the sudden wedding and expressed concerns over Lee's online persona and authenticity.
A source close to the situation told the Daily Mail: "Katie has been inundated with direct messages from her new husband's former girlfriends warning her what he is really like – and pleading with her to dump him. He is not a nice man. These women have been doing everything they can to make her see sense." Initially dismissing the messages as bitterness, Katie is now said to be taking them seriously due to the detailed accounts provided, though she remains stubbornly private about her doubts.
JJ Slater's Explosive Allegations of Infidelity
Adding to the turmoil, JJ Slater has publicly challenged Katie's version of events, claiming their relationship ended less than a month ago, not "months ago" as she stated. He alleges that Katie drunkenly texted Premier League footballers Jack Grealish and Kyle Walker behind his back while they were on holiday in Cyprus in October 2024. Although neither player responded, JJ described the incident as a "massive red flag".
JJ recounted: "We were out at a karaoke bar and having drinks, having fun. The bar closed, so we went home and Kate wanted to carry on drinking... I woke up at like 5-6 am and she wasn't there." He found her messaging the footballers, which raised alarm bells despite giving her the benefit of the doubt due to alcohol. Grealish is in a relationship with Sasha Attwood, and Katie previously claimed at a live show that she and the footballer had once kissed.
Suspicions Over the Timeline and Wedding Legality
JJ also expressed suspicion that Katie and Lee met six months ago during her Dubai trips, noting she extended her stay and had a friend pick her up from the airport instead of him. He was "floored" to learn of her engagement just ten days after their split. Meanwhile, Katie's family reportedly apologised to JJ, stating they were "in the dark as well" about the wedding.
Further complicating matters, the celebrant who conducted the ceremony, Darryl Rees, confirmed it was purely symbolic and unlikely to be legally binding. Rees explained that most British couples in Dubai handle legalities separately in court or a UK register office, leaving it unclear if Katie and Lee followed this process.
Ongoing Fallout and Public Scrutiny
The saga continues to unfold, with Katie's sister cancelling their podcast amid the "hell of a week", and Lee Andrews being challenged to an MMA fight by another of Katie's exes. As representatives for Katie Price, Jack Grealish, and Kyle Walker have been contacted for comment, the public remains captivated by the unfolding drama, highlighting the perils of high-profile, rushed relationships.
