Katie Price Lee Andrews News: For months, Katie Price’s whirlwind marriage to Lee Andrews has been surrounded by questions about money, his background and his legal troubles. Now, the relationship appears to have reached its breaking point after a financial check reportedly challenged one of Andrews’ biggest claims – that he had a cryptocurrency fortune worth around £37 million.
According to a report by The Sun, the 48-year-old TV personality has reportedly decided to end her eight-month marriage to Andrews after a financial expert accessed a crypto wallet that he allegedly claimed contained $50 million. Instead, the account reportedly showed only $3, or around £2.22. The development has reportedly prompted Price to consult a leading London divorce lawyer as she prepares to distance herself from her husband.
Price is also understood to have told Andrews about her decision through WhatsApp. She reportedly wrote: “I have been played, and you are not who you are not who you say you are. Why have you lied to me?”
A friend reportedly heard Price say on Tuesday: “I have come to my senses – Lee has lied and lied and lied. I am sick of it. It is over.”
Katie Price Lee Andrews News: Katie Price and Lee Andrews Divorce
Katie Price has reportedly decided to end her eight-month marriage to Lee Andrews after a series of controversies surrounding his finances and personal claims.
The latest development came after Price allegedly checked a cryptocurrency wallet that Andrews had claimed contained $50 million (£37 million), but reportedly found only $3 (£2.22). She is now understood to have consulted a London divorce lawyer and told Andrews that their relationship was over.
The couple married in Dubai in January 2026, with their union later formally registered in Abu Dhabi. Andrews remains in custody in Dubai, while Price has reportedly said she does not intend to return to see him.
Katie Price Lee Andrews News: Crypto Wealth Claim Becomes Breaking Point
The reported crypto discovery appears to have changed the situation dramatically.
According to reports, Andrews had told Price that he owned $50 million, equivalent to roughly £37 million, in cryptocurrency. He allegedly gave her the recovery phrase needed to access the wallet and told her that she could use some of the money.
Price then reportedly asked a financial expert to check the account on Monday.
The result was dramatically different from what Andrews had allegedly described. The wallet reportedly contained just $3.
A source told The Sun: “The marriage is done. She will never go to Dubai to see Lee again. It was, of course, an accumulation of many things but the final straw came after Lee had told Katie he had $50million in a crypto wallet.”
The source also claimed that the money had never been there in the first place and that the largest amount linked to the account was around $14,490 in March before it was transferred out the same day.
The alleged discovery came after months of growing doubts surrounding Andrews’ wealth and personal claims.

Price has reportedly taken legal advice in London as she considers the next steps.
Her concerns reportedly extend beyond ending the marriage. Sources claim she is worried that Andrews could attempt to make a financial claim against her earnings after the relationship ends.
A source said: “Naturally Katie is worried Lee might try to get her money, or take half her earnings over the next 12 months.”
The same source added that Price does not want to become another victim of an alleged financial scam and hopes the separation can be handled amicably.
Price has previously made clear that she would not pay money to secure Andrews’ release from prison. In June, she said: “He’s in prison and the only way Lee will get out of prison, he has to sort it out himself.
“That’s the end of that. If not, he’ll be prison. There’s nothing I can do. I’m not here to pay anything for anyone.”
Her position has become firmer as Andrews’ legal problems have continued.
Katie Price Lee Andrews News: Dubai Prison Drama Added Pressure
Andrews, 43, remains at the centre of the couple’s increasingly difficult situation in the UAE.
He has been held at Dubai’s Al Awir prison amid legal and financial problems. Earlier reports described his detention as involving a private civil matter, after initial claims surrounding his disappearance led to speculation about espionage. Authorities did not support the espionage version of events.
The prison episode had already placed considerable strain on the marriage.
In May, Price became concerned after Andrews failed to arrive in the UK for a planned appearance with her on Good Morning Britain. She eventually learned that he was being held in Dubai.
Price later travelled to the UAE and visited him while he was detained. Reports at the time said she faced pressure over the money required to secure his release, while she insisted that Andrews had to resolve the issue himself.

Price and Andrews moved extremely quickly after meeting.
The pair married in Dubai in January after knowing each other for only a short period. Their initial ceremony was reportedly not legally binding, with the union later registered in Abu Dhabi on February 17.
What began as a whirlwind romance soon faced a series of controversies involving Andrews’ alleged business dealings, his claimed connections and accusations made by people from his past.
Andrews has denied allegations against him.
Earlier reports also highlighted a failed plan for the couple to appear together on Good Morning Britain. Andrews did not make it to the UK, leaving Price to appear without him. The incident added to questions about his travel situation and background.

Price’s recent public appearances have provided further clues about the state of the relationship.
She was seen wearing her wedding ring at Manchester Pride, but more recent photographs showed her without it during a trip to Marbella. That change came as reports about her marriage intensified.
She also stopped regularly discussing Andrews on The Katie Price Show, according to reports.
At the Hair and Beauty Awards earlier this month, Price attracted attention after a playful exchange with former X Factor contestant Jake Quickenden. The moment generated fresh speculation about her relationship status, although Price later denied that the interaction represented a new romance.
Price also shared an Instagram video of herself walking down a corridor with the caption: “Walking to my new adventures.”
Katie Price Lee Andrews News: Andrews Faced Questions Over His Background
The crypto claim was not the first controversy surrounding Andrews.
Reports have previously questioned several statements he made about his career and connections. These included claims about having a diplomatic passport, holding an engineering PhD from Cambridge and owning Chelsea FC.
Reports also alleged that he used AI-generated images to create the impression that he had met or worked with famous figures.
Andrews has denied allegations made against him.
Several women have also reportedly come forward with accusations involving money and relationships. One woman, Crystal Janke, alleged that she lost £123,000 after investing in one of Andrews’ schemes, while another former partner, Dina Taji, was reportedly involved in a dispute concerning a mortgage. These remain allegations and should not be treated as facts.
Katie Price Lee Andrews News: Katie Price Wants a Fresh Start
The latest development marks a sharp change from earlier this year, when Price continued to stand by Andrews despite the growing controversy surrounding him.
Her position reportedly changed after she spoke with people connected to his past and became increasingly aware of claims made against him.
A source said: “She is so unbelievably bored with his lies.
“She tried to give Lee the benefit of the doubt when all these women came forward, and she did, unquestionably, really fancy him.
“He initially had an answer for everything, and wormed his way back into her affections.
“But Katie has been in regular contact with Lee’s family and, crucially, his exes. They have repeatedly told her the truth and been increasingly frustrated by her apparent refusal to take notice and dump him.”
The source claimed Price now has screenshots, voice notes and other material relating to the controversy and is considering turning the experience into a documentary.
“Katie has always made it clear she’s not thick.
“She has all the receipts — the screenshots, voice notes and the AI fakery. It’s little secret that she wants to make a documentary, Tinder Swindler-style, so that is now the plan.
“Hopefully some good can come out of all this — in what has been yet another turbulent year in the life of Katie Price.”
For now, Price appears to be moving towards ending one of the most turbulent chapters of her personal life, while Andrews remains in Dubai dealing with his continuing legal and financial problems.
