COMEDIAN Katherine Ryan has come up with a theory as to why Katie Price has fallen for the charms of estranged husband Lee Andrews – and it’s due to past ‘trauma’.
Podcaster and mum-of-four Katherine explained on her social media her thoughts behind the Katie and Lee drama.
“So much unkindness around this story like so many of us haven’t also been bewitched by some bullsh*t,” the presenter wrote alongside the video featuring the former glamour model.
Within the footage, she told followers: “He’s been missing for five days. Katie doesn’t know where he is. She was a guest on Good Morning Britain.
“She was supposed to appear with him to address all these rumours that he’s a scammer and she appeared by herself, obviously, and she’s like, Lee’s stuck in Dubai, he can’t get out yet.
“People are being so unkind about it, they’re like, Katie is involved in this, there’s no possible way that someone can look past this amount of evidence into thinking that someone is this virtuous kind human being that she says he is.”
She continued: “I think what’s happened is this: she has a rescuer syndrome, for whatever reason.
“Being the firstborn, she’s very different to her brother and sister.
“She’s had trauma that mixes things up, but I think she’s also made so many romantic mistakes publicly that this one is so big, she’s fearing, oh, if this all comes out and he’s exposed as this scammer then I look stupider than ever, everyone’s gonna say I’m foolish.
“She cannot let that be true. So it’s a mix of like shame and loyalty. She just wants it to be true so badly that she’s constructed this reality where she’s hopeful.
“I think it’s a really sweet thing, like, yeah, it looks dumb to the rest of us. Yeah, she did not practice due diligence as she rarely does, because she married him after a week.
“All of that is bad. There are children involved in her life, she should potentially try to unravel herself from these romantic calamities and focus on her family, but she has said he makes her happy.
“She’s just so hopeful that it’s true. In the past, I’ve been in relationships not as bad as any of Katie’s, I don’t think, but some dodgy ones where when your friends and family start to express their horror that you are with this obvious loser.”
She admitted: “You just dig your heels in harder. You’re like, no, I can’t have this be untrue. I am going to show my loyalty. I’m going to sit here next to this man.
“I’m going to fix whatever problem he has. I’m going to show him enough love that all of these things that he says are true are magically going to be true.”
Concluding her opinion on Katie’s estranged husband’s whereabouts, she said: “Right now, he’s been missing for, I think, this is the sixth day, and she truly believes he’s maybe been kidnapped and hopefully this is the final straw for her.”
Fans commented: “Call me delusional, but I just feel sorry for Katie. It just seems like she just wants to be loved, and don’t we all.”
A second supported: “The amount of sh*t I have believed over the years from an attractive man is incredible.”
A third agreed: “I think you have hit the nail on the head. She has been treated so bad in relationships (we have all seen the documentaries). Someone has shown her love and she has gone with it.”
“I’ve always felt desperately sorry for her… She just wants to be loved,” echoed another.
Singer Paloma Faith interjected: “I don’t know that it’s dumb I think I wanna give her a big cuddle and say it’s ok. Let’s get back to therapy (as I always have!) No one will rescue her until she rescues herself.”
The self-proclaimed multi-millionaire, 43, has disappeared and has left his new-wife with “sky high anxiety”.
A missing persons’ report has been filed with the British Embassy in Dubai and Katie believes he could have been kidnapped.
