Katie Price<\/a>\u2019s soon-to-be ex-husband Lee Andrews<\/a> has offered to transfer Good Morning Britain<\/a> hosts Ed Balls<\/a> and Susanna Reid<\/a> \u00a310,000 in a bizarre voice note sent to the programme. <\/p>\n

Andrews, who is believed to be in jail in Dubai, was due to appear on the ITV programme alongside his estranged wife on Wednesday (16 September) morning. <\/p>\n

But, as has become a pattern with Andrews\u2019 scheduled trips to the UK<\/a>, the businessman was forced to pull out of the interview at the last minute as he says he is still being held in prison. <\/p>\n

Andrews was supposed to be appearing on the show to address claims that he has just \u00a32.22 in his cryptocurrency wallet, despite claiming to be a crypto-multimillionaire. <\/p>\n

Price has claimed she discovered her husband was lying about his crypto money after sharing a link to his online wallet with a friend, who explained what the various figures meant. <\/p>\n

\"PricePrice and Andrews married just nine months ago (Instagram\/@katieprice)<\/p>\n

As he was unable to face questions in the studio, Andrews sent the GMB team a WhatsApp voice note, in which he claimed his wife \u201cwas exposing the wrong amount in the wrong wallet\u201d. <\/p>\n

He said he had sent the show\u2019s producers a link to the correct wallet, adding: \u201cYou can see for yourself, I hope it actually shows by Wednesday that there is 50 million USDT there, which has been legitimately made. <\/p>\n

\u201cSo there’s been no wool pulled over one’s eyes.\u201d <\/p>\n

USDT is a stablecoin used by crypto-traders to exchange various cryptocurrencies. <\/p>\n

\"PricePrice made a solo \u2018GMB\u2019 appearance after Andrews pulled out (ITV)<\/p>\n

Andrews continued: \u201cI can confirm that I do have the funds. Kate’s actually called me a liar on many occasions because she’s been looking at, or taking, information from third parties because she’s not very crypto-savvy. <\/p>\n

\u201cSo obviously she gave my information out, and the story was sold, which I was not happy about. I do have the funds in the wallet, she has my wallet address and I can do any movement on there.\u201d <\/p>\n

Doubling down, he added: \u201cI’ll even send your hosts a thousand pounds or ten thousand, what they want to show the movement, and that it’s mine. I’ve got no issues [with] that.\u201d <\/p>\n

Price, who married Andrews in Dubai<\/a> just weeks after meeting him in January, deleted all traces of her husband from her Instagram account earlier this week. <\/p>\n

\"TheThe former glamour model admitted she felt \u2018embarrassed\u2019 (ITV)<\/p>\n

Confirming their split, she said on GMB: \u201c\u2018I feel embarrassed because I feel he scammed my heart. <\/p>\n

\u201cI love him, but who is he? I love the man I met, but I just can\u2019t take it. I\u2019m not stupid. I\u2019ve been stupid. Well, obviously, I was stupid to fall for him. Now it\u2019s really sad.\u201d <\/p>\n

Price added that she has long suspected Andrews was lying about his millions, recalling one particular incident that set off alarm bells. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe would send me pictures and videos of this house that was worth \u00a340 million or \u00a330 million. So when I’m in Dubai he’d drive me to the house,\u201d she said. \u201cBut we could never go in for some reason. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe said, \u2018Oh, in Dubai, you know, if you’ve got a civil matter, they take charge of your house until you pay the bill before they let you in\u2019.\u201d <\/p>\n

Andrews is believed to be in jail over unpaid debts and claims that while the issue has been resolved, he has been unable to get time of a judge to secure his freedom. <\/p>\n

During his tumultuous marriage to Price, he has faced multiple accusations of being a scammer<\/a>, which he has repeatedly denied. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Your support helps us to tell the story From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":772500,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[6491,96,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-772499","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/772499","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=772499"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/772499\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/772500"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=772499"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=772499"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=772499"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
