Katie Price’s new husband Lee Andrews has apparently left behind a hefty unpaid bill at the luxury Dubai hotel where the couple tied the knot.
The former glamour model, 47, married businessman Lee at the One&Only Royal Mirage in January after a whirlwind romance that moved at breakneck speed and left her family reeling.
The pair exchanged vows in the hotel’s gardens just days after announcing their engagement, with pictures from the ceremony showing them celebrating with champagne as they stood among red rose petals.
But weeks on from the wedding, it has now been claimed Lee has still not paid the hotel for their stay. The alleged unpaid costs are believed to run into thousands of pounds, with rooms at the resort costing around £2,000 a night.

A source told the Daily Mail that Lee had “promised” to settle the bill but six weeks later it’s still outstanding.
However, Lee has denied there was any issue over payment. When approached by the publication, he told them: “It was fully paid. It was an SMS on my HSBC locally. I will ping it to you so you can see it.” Then adding, “Saturday morning you’ll have it.”
The latest claim is another twist in Katie’s fast-moving love life, after she wed Lee only days after they first met. Their relationship came shortly after her split from Married At First Sight UK star JJ Slater.
The marriage has already sparked concern among those closest to Katie, with family members openly admitting they were shocked by how quickly things moved.

On her podcast this week, Katie’s sister Sophie did not hold back as she spoke about the fallout.
She said: “I feel drained. I’m not going to lie, this year for me has not been great. Mine has been a really f**king s**t start to the year, caused by you. You, this year, have been a pain in the f***ing arse. Mum has been horrendous. You have traumatised us all again. It’s not good.”
Katie also revealed that her mum Amy had been left in tears over the situation and had given her what she described as a “bollocking” for marrying a stranger.
Her children were also said to have found out about the wedding through the family group chat, leaving them stunned.

Princess said: “The message Mum sent on the group chat about being engaged… I literally responded, ‘OMG.’ Mum’s very impulsive, but that is impulse on a whole other level.”
The relationship has drawn further scrutiny after claims made by women from Lee’s past, including his ex-fiancée, who warned Katie after the engagement.
Questions have also been raised over Lee’s finances and life in Dubai, with recent reports claiming his living situation was a far cry from the glamorous image presented publicly.
The Mirror has reached out to Lee for comment.
