Katie Price has reportedly decided to end her marriage to Lee Andrews after claims that his financial status was not what she had been led to believe. The television personality and former glamour model is said to have sought legal advice from a prominent London divorce lawyer as she considers bringing an end to the couple's eight-month marriage. According to reports, Price informed Andrews of her decision via a WhatsApp message, expressing concerns over what she viewed as repeated dishonesty throughout their relationship.

Sources close to the situation claim the breakdown of the marriage followed the discovery that a cryptocurrency account Andrews had previously described as containing tens of millions of pounds held only a minimal balance.

The couple married in a surprise ceremony in Dubai earlier this year after a whirlwind romance. Despite recently being seen wearing her wedding ring during a public appearance at Manchester Pride, those close to Price say she has now decided to move on from the relationship.

One source alleged that Andrews had claimed to possess cryptocurrency assets worth around $50 million (£37 million) and had promised Price access to some of those funds. However, after obtaining access to the account, it was reportedly discovered that the wallet contained only a few dollars.

The revelation is said to have been a turning point for Price, who had already been facing growing concerns over allegations and controversies surrounding Andrews' past. Friends claim she had become increasingly frustrated as questions continued to emerge about his business dealings and personal claims.

Andrews, 43, is currently being held in Dubai's Al Awir prison. Reports suggest he is attempting to raise funds to pay a financial penalty linked to his case, although he continues to maintain his innocence regarding allegations made against him.

Price and Andrews initially held a ceremonial wedding in January before officially registering their marriage in Abu Dhabi the following month. Their relationship attracted significant media attention from the outset, particularly due to Andrews' rapid proposal shortly after they met.

Over the course of their relationship, Andrews faced a series of accusations regarding his business background and personal wealth. Critics have questioned several claims he allegedly made, including assertions about his academic qualifications, business ventures, and connections to high-profile public figures.

Among the most widely reported allegations were claims that he possessed a diplomatic passport, held a doctorate from the University of Cambridge, and had professional relationships with figures such as Elon Musk and Kim Kardashian. Reports later challenged those assertions, with some suggesting that images used to support the claims had been digitally altered or generated using artificial intelligence.

Sources close to Price say she is keen to move forward and avoid becoming further entangled in the ongoing controversies surrounding her estranged husband. While legal proceedings have yet to begin formally, insiders suggest she hopes any separation can be resolved without a lengthy dispute.

Neither Price nor Andrews has publicly commented in detail on the latest reports surrounding their relationship.
