Lee Andrews has insisted he “will never stop loving” Katie Price but admitted “divorce is for the best”.
Katie Price has dumped Lee Andrews
The former glamour model has confirmed she has split from the businessman – who is currently in jail in Dubai – just nine months after they married following a whirlwind romance in the UAE, and he has now spoken out for the first time to insist his feelings for the 48-year-old star are genuine and he’s never set out to deceive her.
In a voicenote played on Good Morning Britain on Wednesday (16.09.26), he said: “No doubt this will be played live, which is not what I really want but I have never thrown Katie under the bus.
“I do feel that that happened to me and it looks like there’s profit to be made on her side and obviously it’s something that happened recently while I’ve been doing civil jail – I’ve not been convicted of any crimes nor am I a criminal.”
Lee defended his wealth and insisted Katie was looking at the wrong account when she believed she had seen evidence of a dire financial situation.
He said: “So there’s been no wool pulled over anyone’s eyes and that should be between husband and wife.
“I think divorce is probably for the best, she has her points of view and yes we were in love I do believe. I am due out of jail very soon. Unfortunately there’s a war going on and things are delayed, you can’t get into civil cases you’re detained for…
“I’ll never stop loving Kate, she was a big part of my life.
“So just to reiterate, I do have the funds in the wallet, she can have my wallet address and I can do any movement in there. I’ll even send the hosts £1,000 or £10,000 or whatever they want to show the people that it’s mine.
“I’ve got no issues on that and I earned this consistently through trading and having money in the game.
“I’ve been in the UAE twenty years and obviously earnt quite a good sum of money and built relationships. Anyway, I will be out and you can keep checking the wallet and you’ll see that there is the funds and it’s just 50 million USDT and now the country knows.”
Lee claimed he would be in the UK soon and offered to take a lie detector test.
His estranged wife insisted she was tired of being lied to but denied her decision to split was a result of his alleged lack of wealth.
She said: “I love the man I met. I can’t take it. I was stupid to fall for him. It’s really sad.
“I do believe he did [love me]. I think he’s got himself in such a situation… where he copy and pastes what he says to women… I do believe he’s fallen for me.”
The mother of five feels “embarrassed” by the situation.
She said: “I feel embarrassed because I feel he scammed my heart.
“I feel like he scammed my heart and stole my trust that I had, and me defending a man constantly because he made me believe that, ‘Kate, come on, you know I’m not like this.’
“I love him, but who is he? I love the man I met, but I just can’t take it. I’m not stupid.
“I’ve been stupid. Well, obviously, I was stupid to fall for him. Now it’s really sad.”
Katie insisted she had never been interested in Lee for his money.
She said: “I’ve never been with a man with money. With me, it’s never about going with a man with money. I’m self-made, and I have my own money….
“He hasn’t scammed me for money, but I feel he has scammed me, because he fabricated a person that doesn’t exist.”
