Katie Price's family are said to be arranging an urgent intervention with the reality television star today, following her surprise marriage to Lee Andrews after merely a week of acquaintance.
Family Concerns Over Rapid Romance
The former glamour model has returned to the United Kingdom after a whirlwind trip to Dubai, where she reportedly became engaged and married to Andrews within the space of a single week. According to sources, her family members were unaware of her plans to wed until the news became public, leaving them deeply concerned about the speed at which she has entered this new relationship.
Planned Discussion Amid Fears
A source close to the situation revealed to The Sun that the family intends to sit down with Price for a serious conversation, expressing worries that she is "spinning out of control" amidst this newfound love. The source emphasised, "They haven't even met this man and if she's only known him a week, he could be anyone. Nobody is planning to hold back."
Price has described the connection as love at first sight, stating they met through social media. She explained, "How I met Lee was esoteric. We connected by checking each other's socials and quickly realised, 'Wow this is for me'." She added that their relationship deepened through messages, leading to matching tattoos and ring purchases before they had even met in person, attributing it to fate or destiny.
Controversy Surrounding Lee Andrews
The marriage has drawn attention to Andrews' background, with allegations emerging that he used artificial intelligence to fabricate pictures with celebrities and falsely claimed roles on social media, which several organisations have debunked. Furthermore, The Mirror exclusively reported that an advertisement on an escort website describes Andrews as a "sexy educated professional from UK," listing his fees at $1,250 (£915) per hour and specifying availability for "service to females only."
Andrews has strongly denied any association with the escort site, telling The Mirror, "No comment on this, this is someone who's out to get me, or it's a fake profile, it's not verified by me – I have nothing to say on this, other than it's got to be a disgruntled ex who's scorned and got it out for me, there's no substance in that." He did not identify which former partner he believes might be responsible.
Broader Context and Reactions
This development follows public comments from Price's former husband, who aimed a brutal dig at her after the wedding, adding to the media scrutiny. Additionally, her son Junior Andre has sparked rumours of his own engagement, though unrelated, contributing to the family's ongoing spotlight in entertainment news.
The situation highlights the intense public and familial pressures faced by celebrities in their personal lives, particularly when rapid decisions like marriage are made under the glare of media attention. As Price's family prepares for their intervention, the outcome of this discussion remains uncertain, with potential implications for her personal wellbeing and public image.
