Katie Price's Husband Lee Andrews Under Fire Over Elephant Charity Claims
Lee Andrews, the fourth husband of glamour model Katie Price, finds himself embroiled in fresh controversy as fans scrutinise another apparent discrepancy in his past statements. The businessman, who married Price in a swift Dubai ceremony, continues to defend his marriage and reputation amidst growing scepticism about his online boasts.
Questionable Elephant Donation Claims Surface
New attention has focused on Andrews' claims regarding elephant conservation efforts. Last year, the self-described millionaire posted on social media platform X, formerly Twitter, stating he was donating to save elephants through his company Aura's philanthropic channel. The now-deleted post referenced "The Andrews Elephant Paddock" and showed him posing with Asian elephants at Taronga Zoo in Sydney.
However, investigations reveal significant inconsistencies. Taronga Zoo has no record of any paddock named after Andrews or his business according to their official maps. A zoo representative clarified to media outlets that animal habitats are "not typically named in recognition of individual donors." Furthermore, the enclosure where Andrews was photographed closed around the same time he made his claims, with the elephants relocated to Monarto Safari Park in southern Australia.
Pattern of Questionable Claims Emerges
This elephant donation controversy represents just the latest in a series of questionable assertions from Andrews' past that have come under examination. His LinkedIn profile previously listed him as a "Member Of The Board of Advisors for the Labour Party" since 2015, but Labour sources have firmly denied this arrangement exists.
Additionally, Andrews has faced allegations regarding escort service advertisements in Dubai, where he has resided for two decades. Profiles matching his description appeared on platforms offering "female-only services" for substantial hourly rates. While Andrews dismissed these as fabrications by a "disgruntled ex," the emergence of multiple questionable claims has led fans to characterise him as having "Walter Mitty" tendencies.
Ongoing Defence of Marriage and Reputation
Despite mounting scrutiny, both Andrews and Price continue to publicly defend their relationship. The couple's rapid wedding in Dubai brought Andrews into the celebrity spotlight, prompting intense examination of his background and business claims. Social media users have been meticulously combing through his online presence, comparing his statements with verifiable facts.
The businessman maintains his innocence regarding all allegations, attributing discrepancies to misunderstandings or malicious actions by former associates. However, the pattern of unverified claims—from political connections to charitable endeavours—has created sustained scepticism among observers of the celebrity couple's affairs.
