Katie Price's Husband Lee Andrews Featured in BBC Dubai Documentary with Billionaire Portrayal
In a recent revelation, Lee Andrews, the husband of former glamour model Katie Price, was depicted as a British billionaire in a BBC television series focused on Dubai's luxury real estate market. The episode, titled "Inside Dubai: Playground of the Rich," originally aired three years ago and showcases Andrews touring a high-end three-bedroom apartment with panoramic sea views on the iconic Palm Jumeirah.
BBC Narration and Property Details
During the segment, narrator Will Mellor introduces Andrews to viewers, stating, 'Over at the Palm Jumeirah, new agent Nadia Cortés has found herself a British billionaire, who's looking to extend his property portfolio.' The luxurious apartment, part of an artificial archipelago shaped like a palm tree, is highlighted for its opulent features, including potential boat access directly from the entrance. Agent Cortés stands to earn approximately £30,000 in commission from the sale, underscoring the high stakes in Dubai's property sector.
Background and Family Concerns
Lee Andrews, 41, married Katie Price, 47, in a private ceremony in January 2026, just one week after they met. Price has since announced she is expecting his baby, a development that has reportedly caused concern among her family members. A source close to the situation expressed worry, noting, 'After all, they've only known each other for a matter of weeks.' The couple has been spending time in Dubai, where Andrews is based, though it remains unclear whether they plan to settle in the United Arab Emirates or the UK.
Controversies and Denials
Andrews' appearance in the BBC show is not the only point of contention. Recent reports from the Daily Mail allege that he served time in Dubai's Al-Awir central prison for suspected fraud, involving a forged signature on a £200,000 mortgage application in his ex-girlfriend's name. An insider claimed this led to a travel ban, though Andrews has denied these allegations in voice notes to the publication, suggesting there are 'wrong details.'
Additionally, Andrews has made various professional claims that have been disputed by the organizations he associated with. In a separate incident, a physical altercation at a Dubai hotel involving Andrews and Kerry Katona's partner, Paolo Margaglione, was reported but denied by Katie Price. Margaglione has since left Dubai, citing a work emergency.
Broader Context and Media Response
The BBC series delves into the lucrative world of Dubai real estate, where employees can earn hundreds of thousands of pounds on single transactions. Andrews, who is not explicitly named in the episode, ultimately decided against purchasing the property. Metro reached out to the BBC for comment, but they declined to respond. Representatives for Katie Price were also contacted but have not provided a statement.
This situation adds to the public scrutiny surrounding Katie Price, who has been married four times and engaged nine times. As the story unfolds, it highlights the intersection of celebrity culture, media portrayals, and personal controversies in the global property market.
