It looks like Katie Price is finally fed up with Lee Andrews, after he made a dramatic social media U-turn just hours after his estranged wife was pictured getting close to another man.
The self-proclaimed businessman has not only unfollowed the former glamour model, 48, but has also hinted that he plans to remove the permanent reminders of their whirlwind marriage – including several tattoos dedicated to her.
Lee, 43, previously followed just one person on Instagram: Katie. Now, however, his following list is empty, with his account also switched to private.
Commenting on the situation on her podcast, Katie said: ‘Well, one minute I’m followed by him, then I’m unfollowed because I get sent stuff, and then he puts quotes up about me. I can’t keep up with it myself.’
She then added: ‘I think he’s just a t**t.’
For his part, to make his feelings even more clear, Lee took to his Instagram Stories to share a video showing someone choosing to delete all their memories, in what appeared to be a pointed reference to his relationship with the mother-of-five.
He subsequently revealed that he intends to remove his tattoos, including the substantial tributes he has had inked in Katie’s honour.
Among them are the words ‘Owned by Katie’ across his back, her name written in cursive on his hand, and another tattoo of her name at the top of his stomach. He also has a portrait of Katie’s son Harvey tattooed on his body.
The apparent change of heart comes after Katie was photographed cosying up to Felix Henderson, the founder of AI company OhChat, at the Glamour Awards.
Felix is the man behind the platform Katie has partnered with to create what has been described as the UK’s first digital twin – an AI version of the reality star that fans can interact with.
The pair appeared particularly friendly at the event, prompting speculation about the nature of their relationship. However, Katie was quick to shut down any suggestions there was something romantic going on.
Taking to Instagram, she insisted Felix was simply a ‘work colleague’ and explained that the pair had finally met in person after working together through her professional partnership with OhChat.
She wrote: ‘Just to clarify, Felix is a work colleague who was representing OhChat at the Glamour Awards.
‘Having attended the awards for the last few years, it was a great opportunity for us to finally meet in person following my professional partnership with OhChat to create the UK’s first digital twin.
‘Our meeting was entirely work-related, and there is absolutely nothing more to it than that.’
Despite Katie’s clarification, the pictures appear to have coincided with another apparent breakdown in her already turbulent marriage to Lee.
The pair married in January after a whirlwind romance, but their relationship quickly unravelled, with the couple becoming estranged amid a series of increasingly public disagreements.
Their split followed Lee’s imprisonment in Dubai, with Katie subsequently expressing frustration over what she described as his lies. It was also reported that she ended the relationship via WhatsApp after discovering he had just £2.22 in his bank account, despite his previous claims of having millions in cryptocurrency.
Yet, as recently as last week, there were signs that the pair might have been considering a reconciliation.
Lee had referred to Katie as his ‘soulmate’ in a social media post, which she later reshared on her own Instagram Story. Katie was also spotted wearing her wedding ring again while celebrating Halloween in Manchester, where the huge diamond was hard to miss as she stepped out in a revealing bridal-inspired costume.
Now, however, Lee’s latest activity suggests any hopes of a happy ending may have been short-lived.
Interestingly, despite his apparent efforts to erase their relationship, Lee’s Facebook profile still describes him as being ‘married to the beautiful Katie Price’.
Whether that detail is simply an oversight or a sign that the door has not been completely closed remains to be seen.
