Katie Price’s ex has had his say on her latest marriage, fearing it’s simply a “business transaction”. Former glamour model Katie, 47, married for the fourth time last month with a quick-fire wedding.
But for husband number two, Alex Reid, some things simply don’t add up. Katie and Alex were married between 2010 and 2012, and he revealed he felt as though he had stepped outside of reality during his time with the star.
In an exclusive chat with the Mirror, Alex claimed he felt “intoxicated with the celebrity and the whole situation” during his time with Katie.

And it’s a feeling he thinks the businessman will now be feeling as the spotlight focuses on him following the fast nuptials. “I imagine Lee Andrews is intoxicated,” Alex said. “The difference is he’s a little bit older than I was.
“Financially, I think he’s more successful. Well, it depends. We don’t know what the truth is. There’s so many lies and things said about him. But if you believe his business acumen, then he’s very successful.
“So if you’ve got that success, if it’s legitimate, which I’m not sure, I’m not going to comment either way, you can’t attain that sort of money and wealth without having a sensible head on your shoulders.”
But Alex went on to say you have to question the pair’s decision to tie the knot so soon after meeting. “I mean, as much as you can say mine was almost a whirlwind in its own way, we got married after six months, and that was too soon,” he claimed.
“So it literally sounds like madness, unless the other option: It’s a business transaction. And I would say that they are going into it, if it is a business transaction, they both have their eyes open.”
Alex went on: “He [Lee] has gone into this with his eyes open, but he doesn’t really know, he doesn’t understand. He thinks he can control the media, and also someone called Katie Price.”
Alex’s comments come as Katie hit out at what she called “snakes” in a Valentine’s Day message to her new man. Writing on her Instagram Stories, Katie – who shared a clip Lee had posted of her with a dog – said: “@Wesleeeandrews has given me more security more respect and proven that everything that’s been said about him has been absolute BS by bitter people and snakes in all areas.”
Her message comes as Lee’s alleged previous antics continue to be scrutinised.
