Fresh claims have emerged suggesting Katie Price's recently wedded husband, Lee Andrews, harbours significant ambitions for celebrity status and dreams of starring in his own reality television programme. The former glamour model, aged 47, surprised both her fanbase and family last week by announcing her engagement and subsequent marriage to Andrews, who describes himself as a billionaire.
Contrasting Portrayals and Allegations
Insiders have characterised Andrews as being "a world away from the knight in shining armour persona he presents to women," labelling him a fantasist. According to sources speaking to various outlets, Andrews is allegedly "desperate to be famous" and actively cultivates a public image that diverges sharply from reality.
Social Media Persona Under Scrutiny
Friends and an acquaintance have claimed that Lee Andrews' online presence is meticulously curated. He is reported to sometimes use the name "Weslee" and the title "doctor" without proper justification. Furthermore, sources allege he employs filters during video calls and on social media to such an extent that his naturally brown eyes can appear blue or hazel.
The acquaintance, who met Andrews in Dubai, stated: "He wants to be everything but most of all he's desperate to be famous. It's all smoke and mirrors with Lee." They added that his aspirations seem to shift constantly, from posing as a billionaire to claiming to be an actor and model.
Denials and Clarifications
When confronted by The Mirror, Lee Andrews firmly denied several specific allegations. He refuted claims of having a hair transplant, though he confirmed undergoing a procedure to pin back his ears. Regarding recent treatments, he mentioned having "a bit of Botox put in" recently before Katie Price's arrival in Dubai.
Most notably, Andrews directly contradicted the claims about his desire for fame. He told the publication: "No, it is not my dream to be a reality TV star. I aspire to other things." He also addressed the sensational claim that he turned down the role of James Bond, explaining it stemmed from a reposted social media comment suggesting he should be the next Bond, which was then taken out of context. "Nothing turned down, nothing offered," he clarified.
Echoes of a Previous Proposal
Adding another layer to the story, Lee Andrews' ex-girlfriend, Alana Percival, has publicly shared footage of her own marriage proposal from him. The proposal, believed to have occurred on September 14, 2025, bears a striking resemblance to the one he gave Katie Price.
Percival's video shows the words "will you marry me?" written in rose petals, mirroring the setup in Dubai's Burj Al Arab hotel that Price shared. Percival captioned the clip "Couldn't get more identical," implying a pattern in his romantic gestures. Reports suggest Percival met Andrews on a Dubai beach in May last year and invested in one of his businesses before calling off their engagement over concerns about his intentions.
Family Concerns and Rapid Romance
The whirlwind romance has reportedly caused concern within Katie Price's family. Sources indicate they only learned of the engagement through Instagram posts and were "stunned," having not yet met Lee Andrews. A source explained to The Sun that the family is worried Price may be "moving too fast," especially given her recent split from JJ Slater only weeks prior to this new relationship.
As the public and media scrutiny intensifies, the contrasting narratives between insider claims and Lee Andrews' own denials continue to fuel speculation about the true motivations and character of Katie Price's new husband.
