Katie Price splits from Lee Andrews amid financial claims

Katie Price has reportedly ended her marriage to Lee Andrews after eight months amid claims that his financial status did not match his previous assertions.

Katie Price has reportedly decided to end her marriage to Lee Andrews, with the reported split coming just hours after she was seen displaying her wedding ring during a trip to Marbella.

The former glamour model, 48, reportedly shocked friends and family when she married the Dubai-based self-proclaimed businessman just days after meeting him.

The relationship later attracted considerable attention amid claims surrounding Andrews’ wealth and allegations of fraud.

According to reports, Price became increasingly concerned after allegedly discovering that Andrews had just £2.22 in his bank account, despite reportedly claiming to be a millionaire.

Before reports of the split emerged, Price was photographed laughing with a friend while enjoying the sunshine in Marbella.

The reality star travelled to the Spanish resort with a group of friends, including fellow reality television personality Chloe Ferry, who celebrated her 31st birthday this week.

On Tuesday, Price was seen wearing a yellow two-piece outfit while displaying her sparkling engagement and wedding ring.

Friends support Katie Price

Following reports that the marriage had ended, sources close to Price reportedly said her friends were relieved by her decision.

One source claimed that Price’s friends had repeatedly warned her about Andrews but that she had chosen not to act on their concerns.

“Katie’s friends are absolutely over the moon that she’s decided to divorce Lee,” the source said, adding that they had given her “as many warnings as they could”.

Reports on Tuesday said Price had decided to call time on her marriage to Andrews after eight months, amid claims that his assertions about being a millionaire had allegedly proved untrue.

The reported split marks another dramatic development in Price’s personal life, while the circumstances surrounding her relationship with Andrews continue to attract public attention.
