Katie Price's Dubai Honeymoon Extended Amid Plans for UAE Relocation
Katie Price and her new husband Lee Andrews have been enjoying an extended honeymoon in Dubai, with recent reports indicating the former glamour model is planning to relocate to the United Arab Emirates permanently. This decision comes despite growing concerns from her family about Andrews' background and potential financial motivations.
Honeymoon Bliss and Social Media Displays
The 47-year-old mother-of-five, who shocked fans last month by announcing her fourth marriage to the self-described businessman, has been documenting her Dubai honeymoon on social media. On Wednesday, Andrews shared a selfie on Instagram showing the couple during a dinner date, with Price wearing a low-cut crop top and pouting for the camera while he smiled beside her. He captioned the image "Happy honeymoon," though the couple's stay has now stretched beyond their initial two-day plan.
Controversial Background and Legal Troubles
The Daily Mail has previously reported that Andrews spent three weeks in a UAE jail for allegedly forging his ex-girlfriend's signature to obtain a £200,000 loan in her name. He has been banned from leaving the country, though he denies these allegations. Despite this restriction, he does not appear to have left the UAE since these legal issues emerged.
Financial Pressures Driving Relocation Decision
Price's decision to relocate appears driven by significant financial difficulties in the UK. She was first declared bankrupt in November 2019 and faced a second bankruptcy in March 2024 over an unpaid tax bill exceeding £750,000. Last January, she was forced to sell her "Mucky Mansion" for just £1.15 million after failing to maintain mortgage payments.
Currently earning income through OnlyFans by selling risqué photos and videos, Price reportedly cannot afford her rent in England. A source told The Mirror: "Katie owes a lot of money here. She doesn't have the money to keep renting a place in the UK. She'll be with Lee in Dubai and try to have a base at a friend's place in the UK. She won't have a house here. Lee's business is in Dubai."
Family Concerns and Potential Scam Fears
Price's family members have expressed serious concerns about her hasty marriage and relocation plans. An insider revealed they are "very worried" about her situation and anxious that Andrews' motives might involve financial exploitation. The source added that family members fear "this is a potential scam" as Price has reportedly put down money on a property in the UAE with Andrews.
Another source told The Sun: "She is really excited and thinks she is going to have her happy ending with Lee but those close to Katie fear this could be the start of a potential scam. Katie says she is busy planning her new life with Lee and has splashed the cash on this property – but it's making her closest friends and family anxious."
Family Separation and Harvey's Care
Price will not be bringing her eldest son Harvey, 23, who has Prader-Willi Syndrome and lives in an independent living facility with 24-hour care, to Dubai. The insider stressed that Price is a "great mum" who would never want to "abandon" Harvey but doesn't wish to disrupt his current living situation. She reportedly plans to fly back and forth between the UAE and UK to visit him.
Defending Her Decision
Despite mounting concerns from family and multiple ex-partners of Andrews who have issued public warnings to Price, she has defended her marriage. In a recent YouTube video, she stated: "I'm not stupid, I know what I'm doing. I'm not a young kid and will do what I want to do."
The couple has also displayed matching tattoos featuring each other's names, with Andrews' tattoo including the "spiritual" numbers 11.11. However, Andrews' background continues to raise questions, with accusations of using AI in social media posts, appearing on escort sites, and having what several ex-partners describe as a "colourful history with women."
Price's representatives have been contacted by The Daily Mail for comment regarding the relocation plans and family concerns, but no official statement has been released at this time.
