Katie Price Says 'Missing' Husband Lee Andrews Has Been Found 'Alive' And 'OK'

Katie Price has claimed that her husband Lee Andrews has been located, weeks after he was first said to be missing.

On Thursday morning, the former glamour model told The Sun that Lee had phoned her from a prison in Dubai, where he lives.

She said: “I have found him – he is alive, and he is OK. I told him how worried I had been and told him I loved him.”

The Celebrity Big Brother winner went on to say the phone call from her husband was “rushed”, but that he’d told her authorities in Dubai feared he was a “spy” which led to him being taken into custody.

“I don’t know much more than that right now,” she added.

Katie and Lee announced earlier this year that they had got married in Dubai around a week after meeting in real life, having previously struck up a relationship over social media.

While their first wedding service took place in January, the pair formally registered their marriage the following month.

In mid-May, Lee had been due to join Katie in the UK for the first time since they tied the knot, where they were due to make a joint appearance on Good Morning Britain, although he ultimately didn’t turn up.

Days later, on 16 May, Katie told her YouTube followers that Lee had been “missing” in Dubai for the last three days, his location services had been switched off his phone and that when they’d last spoken via video-chat, he was in the back of a van wearing a hood with his hands bound.

She also expressed concern that Lee may have been kidnapped or held ransom, but clarified in a subsequent update that if that were the case, she’d not received any ransom note.

Katie later dismissed the accusation that Lee going missing was a “publicity stunt”, insisting that “anyone who thinks that I’m part of this is disgusting”.
