Katie Price's husband Lee Andrews 'ran up a huge bill at luxury Dubai hotel for their wedding - and hasn't paid yet'

Katie Price's husband Lee Andrews racked up a huge bill at the luxury Dubai hotel where the couple tied the knot - and it is claimed he left without paying.

Glamour model Katie, 47, married businessman Lee at the One&Only Royal Mirage hotel in January, following a whirlwind romance that left her family, including her mother Amy Price, 'traumatised.' 

The couple exchanged vows in the hotel's lush gardens, sharing kisses and holding hands just two days after announcing their engagement, which had taken place at another luxurious Dubai hotel, the Burj Al Arab.

But now, six weeks after their shotgun wedding, which took place only seven days after they first met, sources have told the Daily Mail that Lee has yet to settle the bill for their stay.

Despite promising to return and pay the outstanding costs, believed to run into thousands of pounds with rooms costing around £2,000 a night, he still hasn't paid, leaving hotel staff frustrated.

An insider said: 'Lee Andrews has not yet paid the One&Only Royal Mirage hotel where he and Katie Price got married. He promised to settle the outstanding bills but still hasn't, and it's been over six weeks.'

Photos from the couple's ceremony show Katie wearing a cutout white dress as they clinked glasses of champagne. 

They gazed into each other's eyes while a celebrant, holding an iPad, officiated the service amid red rose petals scattered across the ground.

It was a romantic display of affection for two people who had only just met - 16 days after the Daily Mail revealed Katie had split from Married At First Sight UK's JJ Slater.

Following their engagement, Katie was warned by Lee's ex-fiancée about his past behaviour. 

Indeed, he had proposed to personal trainer Alana Percival just 16 weeks earlier, staging an identical rose-petal engagement at Dubai's Burj Al Arab.

Alana, along with American woman Crystal Janke, has claimed that Lee lies about his alleged multimillion-pound wealth, including a £36million mansion he claims to own in Dubai. 

Crystal also alleged that she had been dating Lee at the same time as Alana and that he took £123,000 from her.

Lee was imprisoned for three weeks in a Dubai jail in 2025 over fraud charges, accused of forging the signature of his ex-girlfriend, personal trainer Dina Taji, to take out a £200,000 mortgage in her name.

When the Daily Mail approached Lee on Tuesday for comment about the outstanding hotel bills, he insisted: 'It was fully paid. It was an SMS on my HSBC locally. I will ping it to you so you can see it.'

However, by Wednesday, Lee had still not provided any proof of payment, saying: 'Saturday morning you'll have it.'

Last week, the Daily Mail revealed the reality of Lee's living conditions - a far cry from the £36million Dubai mansion Katie described in a recent interview.

Lee, who's banned from leaving the UAE, was living in a rundown bungalow with his father in the weeks leading up to his marriage to the former Loose Women star.

The single-storey white property is squeezed between larger, newer apartment blocks in Al Bada'a, a multicultural neighbourhood popular with families, with the towering skyscrapers of Jumeirah and Dubai Marina looming in the distance.

Now, with Katie back in the UK and flights to Dubai restricted due to the ongoing war in the Middle East, and Lee unable to leave the country, the couple are only in contact via FaceTime. 

Katie's whirlwind engagement and marriage have left her close family, including her children Junior and Princess Andre, stunned.

On her podcast this week, The Katie Price Show, the star's sister Sophie opened up about the stress and upset caused by the situation.

Sophie said: 'I feel drained. I'm not going to lie, this year for me has not been great. 

'Mine has been a really f***ing s*** 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.'

During the podcast, Katie revealed that the events of the year had also brought her mother, who is currently in hospital, to tears, after she gave Katie a 'bollocking' over marrying a stranger. 

Meanwhile, Katie's children discovered that she had remarried for the fourth time through their family group chat, a revelation that left them 'shell-shocked.'

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.'
