Five months after tying the knot, British reality star and former model Katie Price’s husband has seemingly vanished – and she is desperate for answers.
In a tearful video posted to her social media, Katie (47) pleaded with fans to help locate Lee Andrews (42) in Dubai.
“It’s been five days now since I’ve heard anything from Lee. None of his family have heard anything either. His dad is out in Dubai – he’s heard nothing – and the rest of his family is in the UK and obviously so am I,” she said.
“We have reported him to the British Embassy as a missing person. He’s been reported missing in Dubai. I just don’t know what to say.”
The last time Katie heard from the Dubai-based businessman was a week ago, when he sent her a text message.
“Been arrested. I’ll be in touch. I’m ok xx,” it read.
A terrified Katie pressed for more details. “Where? Why? I’m worried,” she replied.
Lee, Katie’s fourth husband, claimed he had been forced into a van and taken to an unknown location, and that someone had his other phone.
“It’s a black site. I love you, I’ll sort it. I’m in the van, just being detained wtf,” he wrote, begging Katie to contact the embassy and keep tracking his location. “Keep that on babe. Love you.”
That was the last time she heard from him.

The silence was all the more jarring given what had been planned. Before his disappearance, Katie and Lee were due to appear on Good Morning Britain for their first TV interview as a couple, but Lee never boarded his flight to the UK, despite assuring her he would be there.
Katie suspects Lee has been kidnapped, though no ransom demand has been made.
As the days pass, a very different picture is beginning to emerge. Reports suggest Lee is not being held captive and is instead allegedly squatting in a rundown Dubai villa, using a burner phone to stay in contact with a select group of trusted contacts.
It’s a claim that only adds to the growing questions about who exactly Lee Andrews really is.

Born Wesley Lee Andrews, he has presented himself publicly as Dr Lee Andrews – though Katie herself has since set the record straight, clarifying that his doctorate is from Spain, not Cambridge.
His company, Aura Worldwide Holdings, registered in the British Virgin Islands, was dissolved in 2024. A former fiancée, Alana Percival, has accused him of scamming a woman out of approximately $150 000 (around R2,7 million) but Lee has denied the allegations, while Katie insists she has seen proof of his wealth.
He is also reportedly wanted by Interpol in connection with claims made by several women who allege he defrauded them of money.
Through all of it, Katie is trying to hold herself together.
“All I can do is keep myself busy, look after myself, look after my head and just get on with each day. Because I still have to get on with life,” she said.
