Katie Price’s husband Lee Andrews has allegedly been taken into custody in Dubai for the second time in recent weeks, dealing another blow to the former glamour model.<\/p>\n

Sources say the 42-year-old businessman was detained by police and brought to Lahbab station, located in the Dubai desert, on Friday whilst attempting to gather \u00a3120,000.<\/p>\n

His latest alleged brush with UAE authorities comes barely a month after he spent four weeks behind bars at the notorious Al Awir prison over fraud-related matters.<\/p>\n

Mr Andrews, who married Ms Price in January following a whirlwind romance, had been under considerable pressure in the days preceding his detention, according to sources.<\/p>\n

A friend revealed that Mr Andrews sent a message stating: “They’ve arrested me. Katie might need to bail me out. <\/p>\n

“We need to make a noise with a Go Fund Me.”<\/p>\n

The source added that Mr Andrews had grown increasingly anxious beforehand, as he struggled to secure funds he believed were outstanding.<\/p>\n

Ms Price, 48, remains in the United Kingdom with her eldest son Harvey, 24, whilst monitoring developments from afar.<\/p>\n

Despite the fresh legal troubles, the former glamour model reportedly anticipates her husband will be freed within approximately seven days.<\/p>\n

The couple’s rapid marriage earlier this year has attracted sustained public attention amid mounting questions about Andrews’ financial affairs.<\/p>\n

Mr Andrews’ financial difficulties in the UAE stretch back several years, with documented debts totalling approximately \u00a369,000.<\/p>\n

One case, filed electronically in June 2025 by Rotana Star Rent-a-Car, relates to an unpaid vehicle hire agreement from 2022 worth around 266,060 dirhams, equivalent to roughly \u00a354,000.<\/p>\n

This is despite Mr Andrews having previously claimed to own a collection of sports cars, at least two of which he allegedly gifted to women including his wife.<\/p>\n

A separate matter dating to January last year involves approximately 74,817 dirhams, or \u00a315,000, owed to a UAE legal firm for what appear to be outstanding legal fees.<\/p>\n

Ms Price is currently at home in Britain following the premiere of her Sky documentary Katie Price: Nothing To Hide this week, in which she explores her turbulent personal life and finances.<\/p>\n

However, the arrest remains officially unconfirmed.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for Lahbab police station stated they had no record of Mr Andrews being held at the facility.<\/p>\n

A spokeswoman for Ms Price declined to offer any comment on the situation.<\/p>\n
