A source said: “Matt and Gaia are still good mates and they’ve been spending time together following his split from Elle.
“It’s been a hard time for him, naturally, as it would be after the end of any marriage.
“Gaia has always been a great sounding board. Matt is focused on healing and moving forwards into co-parenting with Elle.”
Matt was seen in Notting Hill, West London, last week without his wedding ring and walking next to Italian Gaia.

In her apparent baby announcement, Katie was also quick to take a swipe at Lee’s ex partner Alana Percival, who he was engaged to last year.
In a shock rant, Katie took to social media and said: “Alana I know rejection doesn’t feel nice and I’m married to Lee Andrews the man you want and will never have again.
“Your constant lies and put downs is clearly showing how bitter you are, go live your life little girl.
Who is Katie Price’s husband Lee Andrews?
KATIE Price tied the knot with Lee Andrews in January 2026. Yet who is he?
Failed actor is just another title to add toLee’s questionable CV, after he claimed to have once worked as the Director of Philanthropy at The Prince’s Trust (now The King’s Trust)
Lee also shared images – since proven to be AI – of him working with Elon Musk and Kim Kardashian
It’s been revealed shameless Lee told former girlfriends that he had studied at Cambridge University, and has a PhD in biotechnology science
But The Sun has seen a response from the university explaining it could not find a record of Lee being registered as a student with a date of birth they had provided
His LinkedIn profile says Lee has been a Member of the Board of Advisors to the Labour Party since 2015
Lee was also mocked for repeating theexact same wedding proposalon Katie – that he did for another woman just four months ago.
“I know the truth and your now embarrassing yourself, go and have the little respect for yourself that’s left.
“I know all about you and who you are.
“At least I’m the real woman he has found and deserves, but please just enjoy watching us build our empire as I’m having his child.
“I’ll enjoy the ride and big d*** energy now, I’m in the saddle.
“He’s the most beautiful human I know who never took anything from you.”
Katie furiously added: “Now disappear back under that bridge you irrelevant little troll.”
While Lee also appeared to confirm the baby news by sharing a picture of him and Katie and writing: “Perfect couple, soon to be triple.”
Over the weekend, he shared an image seemingly showing him cradling Katie’s tummy with his hand.
Last month Alana, 32, and Crystal, 40, told The Sun exclusively how they were hoodwinked by the businessman — branding him a lying swindler who preys on women.

Katie and Lee could be seen holding hands and gazing into each other’s eyes as they repeated their wedding vows.
Towards the end of the ceremony, instead of sealing the marriage with a kiss Lee leaned and embraced the mum-of-five.
It seems it was a very casual second ceremony with the pair opting to wear jeans, jumpers and trainers.
Katie and Lee faced have faced concerns about the legitimacy of their wedding last month, but The Sun can now reveal Katie and her fourth husband’s real marriage certificate.
The 47-year-old officially said “I do” again inside Abu Dhabi’s judicial department despite her family and friends voicing their fears over Lee.
Self-proclaimed businessman Lee, 41, and former glamour model Katie signed on the dotted line to formally register their marriage on February 17.
Katie’s whirlwind marriage to the Dubai-based Lee marks the fourth time she has walked down the aisle after her marriages toPeter Andre,Alex ReidandKieran Hayler.
In the exclusive snaps obtained by The Sun, Katie and Lee appear to be the only ones present for the ceremony – no one attended their first wedding either.
It’s believed that podcaster Katie wanted the official marriage documents ahead of her return to the UK for a shock third ceremony.
Reality TV star Katie married Lee in a quickie ceremony last month after shocking the world with her unexpected engagement that came just weeks after she split from her long-term boyfriend JJ Slater.

Katie been spending time in the UAE on honeymoon following a brief return to the UK since their wedding – despite warnings from her pals.
And it’s been far from smooth sailing for the ex-glamour model.
After meeting up with close pal Kerry Katona and her boyfriend Paolo Margaglione in Dubai, the day descended into chaos following a row.
Katie was then seen slurring in a video hours after claiming she’s having Lee’s baby .
It triggered a reaction from her sister Sophie Price who shared an emotional post about “pain” and “coming to your senses” amid Katie’s out of the blue marriage.
The video dived into the complexities of family relationships, following claims their once close relationship is strained.
After the dramatic Dubai trip, which saw Kerry and Paolo leave early, Katie and Kerry’s friendship is also said to be on thin ice.

Olivia showed off her incredibly spacious home to fans as she begun a new life chapter.
She captioned the Instagram video: “2026.. a new home in the city I was born in.”
But now, despite her jaw-dropping open plan kitchen, pine oak floors and sensational floor to ceiling mirrors the star is convinced her new home is cursed.
After having one too many accidents in the London abode, Olivia took to social media to get advice on whether she needed to move out.
The Loose Women panellist moved in just weeks ago however it seems she may already need to pack her bags.
Olivia asked her 2.5 million fans on Instagram: “Can someone who is contacted by a higher power talk to the universe and tell me if I need to move out of this apartment pls lol.
“Since I moved in something breaks EVERY single day, I actually feel like it’s cursed.”
Olivia appears to be having a string of bad luck in her new place and has now turned to fans for a helping hand.
This comes amid the stars sad split from her ex Bradley Dack. The pair had been on and off before they married in June 2023.

Olivia and Bradley married in a lavish affair at the luxury five-star hotel Bulgari in Knightsbridge.
The pair started dating before former model Olivia’s stint on Love Island in 2017 – which she has confessed she joined as revenge for his cheating on her.
Olivia recently dropped a huge hint she’s formerly divorcing her ex as she sat down for a chat with celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton.
Chris Appleton joked on her podcast Olivia’s House: “There’s nothing like a marriage to grow an ass, and nothing like a divorce to lose it, right?”
Olivia agreed: “Yeah and now I’m like whoop [flat] from the front to the back.”
Despite pals telling The Sun she was talking about divorce and it was all feeling very final for her, this was the first time the TV presenter has publicly acknowledgment a potential divorce.

Kelly Osbourne has penned a heartfelt post about grief seven months after her dad Ozzy’s deathCredit: Instagram/kellyosbourneHer rocker father sadly died last July, aged 76Credit: GettyShe wrote a poignant text post on her Instagram StoriesCredit: Instagram/kellyosbourne
Now Reality TV star Kelly has taken to her Instagram post for a lengthy message pouring out her feelings.
She wrote in white text on a black background: “Some grief doesn’t end. It changes shape.
“It becomes the quiet weight you learn to carry, the ache woven into your days.
“Making it through doesn’t mean leaving it behind.
“It means finding the strength to live and love and keep going even with forever resting in your heart.
“When grief feels endless and disastrous, like it’s unmaking you from the inside out, surviving isn’t about conquering it.

“It’s about enduring it.
“It’s about standing in the wreckage of our own heart and whispering, ‘I am still here,’ even when every part of you feels shattered and like you don’t want to be here!”
Ozzy died at home in his stunning mansion in Welders, Buckinghamshire “surrounded by love”.
A statement from his family said at the time: “It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning.
“He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.
He last graced the stage this July when he reunited with his bandmates Geezer Butler, Tony Iommi and Bill Ward and played a five-song set in a farewell to music.
The gig was touted as “the greatest heavy metal show ever,” with Ozzy grinning to chanting fans as he thanked them for all they had done for him.

The incident was the first time Kerry and her partner were meeting her best pal’s new man, following their whirlwind romance, with the trip turning sideways just hours in.
But seemingly not letting it get to them, Kerry and Paolo headed to the capital from their Cheshire home to celebrate her daughter Heidi’s 19th birthday.
Heading to celeb hotspot Sheesh Mayfair, Kerry enjoyed cocktails as she filmed herself dancing with Paolo.
Appearing in high spirits, the pair giggled as Kerry captioned the clip: “Mums and dads on the loose.
In another video, Kerry planted a kiss on Paolo, who beamed for the camera.
Kerry and Paolo headed to Dubai last week for a Valentine’s Day getaway, where they met close friend Katie and her husband Lee, who are on their honeymoon after a surprise wedding.
But yesterday, we revealed that the dad-of-two actually locked horns with Lee, who took a strike at him.
An onlooker told us: “Lee was having some cross words with Katie. He was acting in what appeared to be an aggressive manner.
“Paolo then appeared and stepped in. Lee seemed to be very angry and was shouting at him.
“It all got very heated and Lee threw some punches and one of them landed Paolo square on the head.”
The incident happened in a public part of the hotel where Kerry and Paolo had been staying, with onlookers seeing what went on.
Kerry is thought to not have been present at the time of the altercation.

Opening up about the split, she told Daily Mail: “I had a very happy marriage. Of course you question yourself, ‘did I miss something, was I not aware, was I too busy?’ But there’s no point playing the blame game.
“I just didn’t think I’d find myself here, and I wasn’t strong at the start. I was broken. Broken heart. Broken dreams. We all have an image of how we think our life and future is going to be.
“This wasn’t mine. I was devastated. We had gone from being a couple, traversing the usual ups and downs of a marriage, to an abrupt end. It was a huge shock.”

In her most recent New! Magazine column, Kerry revealed that Paolo had to leave their Dubai getaway ‘urgently’ after just a day in the country.
Despite the star describing it as a “work emergency”, The Sun’s revelation about Paolo and Lee’s bust up means that the former left just hours later.
Kerry wrote in her column: “Paolo and I travelled to Dubai for a romantic getaway for our first Valentine’s Day, where we had a mega-quick 20-minute catch up with Katie Price and her husband Lee.
“But unfortunately, during the trip, Paolo had to go back to the UK for a work emergency.
“I got to spend literally 14 hours with him before he had to leave, which meant I was left alone in Dubai, which we were both gutted about.“
Earlier today, we told how during Paolo’s 14 hours in Dubai, he crossed wires with Lee.
An onlooker said: “Lee was having some cross words with Katie. He was acting in what appeared to be an aggressive manner.
“Paolo then appeared and stepped in. Lee seemed to be very angry and was shouting at him.
“It all got very heated and Lee threw some punches and one of them landed Paolo square on the head.”
The incident happened in a public part of the hotel where Kerry and Paolo had been staying, with Kerry thought to not have been present at the time of the altercation.
An onlooker added: “It was crazy to see this play out. The situation seemed to be pretty heated but then it erupted very quickly. It all happened so fast.
“Paolo looked very shocked by what had happened and walked away. Katie didn’t look in a great way either, she seemed shocked.”
The Sun understands the relationship between Katie and Kerry has been strained since the incident.

KATIE Price and her new husband Lee have insisted they’re the “strongest” and most “beautiful” couple they know as they revealed their plans to return to the UK.

Lee Andrews was supposed to come to UK a few weeks ago but he claimed he was forced to delay his flight to look at properties for the pair to live in.
While fans of Katie were convinced it was because he wasn’t allowed to leave the country, we revealed Katie has put a deposit down on a pad in the UAE.
The loved-up pair have now revealed their both returning to the UK and it could be very soon.
Katie said: “So yeah we’re still in Dubai and we are coming to England very soon.

The TV star took to Instagram on Saturday to share her first post about her marriage breakdown.
Alongside a picture of boxes in her new apartment, she wrote: “I keep opening Instagram to post but I don’t know what to say or do? lol.
“Vulnerability is not my bag!!!! Especially on social media, it feels very much like bleeding in shark infested waters.
“I cry myself to sleep then business as normal when the alarm goes off at 5am and it has been like that for a long time.
Their split comes just months after the couple weathered a “really bad summer”.

WHEN Katie Price got married to Lee Andrews at breakneck speed, just days after they began dating, her loyal fans were left bewildered.
For her family, the reaction has been even more stark. Here, insiders tell us how Pricey’s son Junior responded to the Dubai nuptials – and why her closest ally, sister Sophie, has been left reeling as concern for the mother- of-five reaches an all-time high.

Hours after revealing her extravagant engagement, The Sun told how Katie and Lee had in fact got hitched with none of her family there. Her fourth marriage took place less than a week after she had met Lee.
It was an unusually quiet ceremony for the former glamour model . An officiator was seen in front of the pair reading from a script as Katie, who wore a £12 dress from Shein, said her vows.
She gushed about how happy she was, telling fans: “All I can say is ‘fatale’, and this was a wedding at First Sight.”
Yet celebratory messages from her nearest and dearest have not been forthcoming, despite Price, 47, returning to the UK earlier this week without Lee, 43, who has since been accused of being a ‘swindler’.
There’s only so much Katie’s kids can take. It is really not fair.
Insider
One source said: “It’s just another day on Planet Katie, and everyone has to deal with the consequences.
“She will always have a close bond with her children, but there’s only so much they can take. It is really not fair.”
Her son Junior, 20, has refrained from posting to his half a million Instagram followers in the days following the whirlwind wedding – which is not legally binding.
And it is not only Junior’s fans who have got the silent treatment from the singer.
Rather tellingly, we have been told that the rapper, who is “very close” to dad Peter and stepmum Dr Emily, has not contacted his mother to offer his congratulations on her marriage to Andrews.
A source said: “Junior is used to Katie’s increasingly erratic behaviour, but even this took him by surprise.
“He is so fed up with his mum’s constant dramas. He wants no part in it. He’s hardly going to send a congratulations message about a bloke he hasn’t even met.”
But while Junior is more resilient, sister Princess, 18, has given clues to her hurt feelings, taking to TikTok in the days following her mum’s wedding ceremony to post two emotional videos on the social media platform, including one featuring a tearful girl.
Sophie is understandably horrified by it all. It’s been incredibly draining for her. The sisters are incredibly close so it was very hard for Sophie not to know what was going on.
Insider
The writing on top of the clip reads: “I feel everything very deeply” with an accompanying voiceover on top of the clip that says: “I’m such an incredibly, stupidly, sensitive person that everything that happens to me I feel everything really intensely.”
Another featured a teen girl getting into bed and wiping tears from her eyes as she lets out a sigh.
The writing on top reads: “When the smallest thing upsets me, and now I have to be non-verbal and easily irritated for hours until I can let it go”.
Insiders say that despite the cryptic posts it is unlikely that Princess, who remains close to her mother, will publicly condemn her. But a pal of the star confided: “It is so selfish to create all this drama just before Princess is about to launch series two of The Princess Diaries. This should be her turn in the spotlight. Not her mums.”
In recent years as Katie’s fame has dwindled, she has become increasingly reliant on her younger half-sister Sophie, 36, who has devoted a large part of her life to looking after her.
Despite managing the wayward reality star, organising much of her chaotic life, and co-hosting a podcast together, Sophie was not invited to Katie’s wedding.
Fans thought Sophie looked very upset when she announced there would be no podcastSophie has been a huge support to Katie over the yearsCredit: RexSophie and Katie with their mum, Amy – who is said to be ‘beside herself with worry’Credit: Instagram
An insider said: “Sophie is understandably horrified by it all. It’s been incredibly draining for her. The sisters are incredibly close so it was very hard for Sophie not to know what was going on.
“They were due to record a podcast like normal this week, but at the last minute, they decided not to go ahead.
Their mum is utterly beside herself with worry.
“Sophie felt the need to say sorry to her fans, while Katie kept silent. It is quite typical of their relationship that Sophie is the one picking up the slack, and she’s honestly struggling with it at the moment. It has caused tension between the siblings, with Sophie just desperate for Katie to be ok.
“Their mum is utterly beside herself with worry – they have all been through so much with Katie, but thought the worst was over in recent years.
“They don’t believe Lee is the man he said he was and are just waiting for Katie to click. It was a huge relief when he did a U-turn on coming to the UK. Sophie was not ready to meet him and deal with all that.”
Sophie made her feelings very clear on the situation today as she shared a picture of the countryside and wrote: “This and never stepping foot in Dubai.”
Last night, Sophie took to social media to explain what was happening to the podcast.
Looking exhausted, she said: “Hi guys, how are you all? I know you’ve all been chomping at the bit to find out what has been going on. All our DMs have been going off,” she began in her video address.

“Let’s just say, it’s been one hell of a week. We have done over a 100 episodes of the podcast, which sounds absolutely nuts when it’s just me and Kate doing our b*s chat.
“We will be back next week as normal, and we will be able to update you guys on what’s been going on. It will be business as usual.”
Such was the emotion on display that one commentator posted: “’You are a good sister. Hope you’re ok, Sophie, you look like you’re holding back tears”
Sophie has always been outspoken about Katie’s relationships, while trying to be as supportive as possible.
Just a couple of weeks ago, she expressed her horror when Katie announced she was looking for a Richard Gere type.
She retorted: “Absolutely not, you need a break, you need time to yourself’.”
Katie completely ignored her, and when she announced her engagement, she gushed about finding her ‘real life Richard Gere’. The film is, of course, about a wealthy gentleman who sweeps a prostitute off her feet.
The sisters – who have an 11-year age gap- have talked in the past about being “like chalk and cheese”.
Sophie was just six years old when her big sister found fame, meaning that she doesn’t remember a time when Katie wasn’t in the spotlight.
However, Katie’s fame made her a target at school – and she was bullied by cruel classmates.
She recalled: “It was just girls saying nasty things, when you’re a teenager… You know what girls can be like.”
Yet a beautiful relationship blossomed, with the sisters becoming firm friends and podcast favourites.
But after the latest cruel snub, it might be a while before fans get a new episode of the podcast.

The businessman goaded Reid as he told The Sun he wanted to fight him “anytime, anywhere” in Britain, Dubai or Abu Dhabi.
He also said he had spoken with Katie about the challenge only briefly, but insisted: “We do support each other.”
Lee — dubbed a “Walter Mitty” over his long list of outlandish or untrue claims including that he is Director of Philanthropy at The Prince’s Trust — confidently claimed he had his own experience in sparring, partial boxing and “elite fitness”.
He said he wanted it to be on an Ultimate Fighting Championship five-round match setting and said proceeds would go towards supporting mum-of-five Katie and charity.
It comes after Reid, who was Katie’s second husband, made his feelings plain over her fourth wedding.
He said: “It’s irresponsible on your family and the children to marry someone you don’t know.” Reid added: “I genuinely wish the man good luck marrying her.
“I hope the marriage lasts longer than the court-ordered debts that she still owes me and to many others, demonstrating accountability and responsibility.
“It’s not really her strong point. Maybe, he could be the best thing in the world to happen to her.
“He could help her pay her debts and be accountable with money.”
Her family are understood to be concerned about her, while an ex of Lee warned: “Run for the hills.”
Katie flew back to Britain by herself on Monday.
Lee claimed two days later that she went home early because of her children and insisted he had to “wrap a few things up” and would fly back the next day to join her.
But he appeared to U-turn when he posted an Instagram story yesterday seemingly still in Dubai.
He wrote: “Waiting for Katie.” And he said in the video: “I’m waiting for Katie to come out here, love you so much Katie.”

The mother-of-five got hitched for a fourth time in a quiet ceremony in Dubai with no loved ones present.
It came just hours after Katie revealed they had got engaged, calling it a “wedding at first sight”.
And earlier this month, the podcaster showcased her huge flower tattoo on her bum as well as horses on her forearm and stomach.
Her various leg inkings were also on display.
Katie wrote: “I absolutely love it!! Now that is what you call a piece of ART!”
When it came to her bum art, Katie said: “Tattoo round 3,” with a picture of her full behind peeking out from red tracksuit bottoms.
Earlier this year, Katiestripped nakedto show off her tattoo-covered back and captioned the revealing shot: “Join myOnlyfanslink in my bio,” referring to the X-rated online subscription service.

“Hey guys, how are you?” he began in a video posted on his Instagram Stories.
“So yeah, myself and Katie are legally married okay. I think you know that.
“No, I’m not a gigolo,” he added. “There is a press release going out.
“I wish,” he said of the gigolo nickname. “I would have got more money from it wouldn’t I, I don’t think those are the going rates in Dubai, but let’s look at it obtusely.
“So yes, I’m in Dubai, she’s in England,” he confirmed again of their current locations. “You’ll see us reunite.”
Before signing off, Lee made a brief swipe at online speculation over the couple’s wedding rings.

At the time, she told The Mirror that if Katie and Lee are happy then she is too.
But despite putting on a brave face, it now seems Trisha has doubts about the marriage.
The clairvoyant wasn’t present at the wedding and, today, posted a quote to her Facebook page that said: “Do not get upset with people or situations; both are powerless without your reaction.”
Trisha previously said to The Mirror: “There’s a lot of lies going around about Lee and that’s made me really upset. He’s not been married twice. I just want to defend my son, but I can’t say much more until I know everything.
“He did tell me that the wedding was happening. He spoke to me and if he is happy, I am happy – he’s my son, and that’s all that matters.”
Speaking about Katie, Trisha added: “Of course, I know who Katie is.
“I’ve always been very neutral about her. Everyone deserves a chance, you should never judge anyone in life.”
Last week the reality TV star sent fans wild as she dropped a series of engagement snaps.
In one photo, the podcast host was seen standing beside rose petals that were arranged to read “will you marry me” before she showcased her huge “25 carat” diamond ring.
Model Katie has since arrived back in the UK as two of Lee’s former lovers have hit out and warned that she should “run for the hills.”
Lee, who has also been caught faking his Instagram posts using AI, has revealed he is inbound for Britain as he wraps up “business” in the Middle East.
Meanwhile, Katie’s family are said to have been blindsided and are planning an intervention.

NICOLA Peltz gets a staggering $1 million-a-month allowance from her billionaire father, according to new claims.

Peltz family patriarch Nelson, 83, has a net worth of $1.6 billion while David, 50, and 51-year-old Victoria’s combined is thought to be around half of that.
Journalist Marina Hyde said on The Rest is Entertainment podcast: “From what I hear I think the Beckhams give Brooklyn a lot of money but not insane money and they have this dream to some degree that he will stand on his own two feet and become independent.
“Maybe Nelson Peltz would deny this but I hear that he said to them, ‘I give my daughter a million dollar a month allowance’.
“The one thing they [the Beckhams] didn’t think their children would be doing would be the ones signing the prenuptial, they thought it would be the other way round.”
A source told us at the time: “Certainly, in the case of the Beckhams vs Peltzes, it’s proven… tricksy. David and Victoria are two working-class kids done good.
“They have grafted hard for their money and understand that with privilege comes responsibility.
“On principle, they will not needlessly spoil their kids and have taught them the value of both industry and money. They’re like Gordon and Tana Ramsay in that regard.
“So, when it came to buying this house, of course they weren’t just going to hand their son millions of pounds — what sort of message does that send?
“Nelson Peltz, on the other hand, is a billionaire investor and he and his wife Claudia regard Nicola, their little girl, as the apple of their eye.
“Understandably, they want to indulge her and ensure she never struggles — they expected the Beckhams, worth half a billion themselves, might match them penny for penny. Or, at least, chip in with financials as and when.
“That hasn’t always happened, so they are annoyed and telling people it’s a bit tight.”
Katie Price surprised fans when she tied the knot for the fourth time last weekendCredit: GettyKatie wed new husband Lee Andrews in a small Dubai ceremonyCredit: Instagram/@wesleeeandrewsCelebrant Darryl Rees who officiated the nuptials has since confirmed the ceremony was not legally-bindingCredit: Instagram/djdarrylrees
The nuptials – which took place at the Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai – were officiated by part-time DJ and celebrant Darryl Rees, who has since broken his silence on his involvement that day.
“What I do is a symbolic wedding,” he told the Daily Mail. “I’m like the showman, and then they get married in the courts with all the paperwork.”
Darryl, who has been operating as a celebrant in Dubai for over five years explained that couples who opt for these style of nuptials have to then have the legalities carried out in a Dubai court or UK registry office either pre or post-ceremony.
Darryl added that the newlyweds “mentioned that they were going to get the wedding legalised the day after on the Monday.”
It’s currently not known if Katie and Lee have filed to make their marriage official in a court of law.
“From my point of view, they seemed like a lovely couple,” he said of his experience of their wedding.
“They appeared very much smitten by each other. When I was speaking to Lee initially, he was clearly head over heels for Katie and very excited to marry the girl.
“And Katie seemed very taken with him as well. They were both looking into each other’s eyes the whole time when I was doing the reading, never looked away, just transfixed like any couple would be, madly in love.
Darryl revealed that Lee reached out to him on Saturday enquiring into his services, one day after the couple announced their engagement on Instagram.
“When Lee messaged me on the Saturday, he said ‘I want to do a wedding with my fiancée’.

“Then he gave me the names as Lee Andrews and Katie Price, and I was a bit taken aback, so I wasn’t that surprised when I saw it was indeed her the following day.”
Following their big day, Katie and Lee have been sharing several loved-up selfies on social media.
“The happiest Mr and Mrs” read one photo caption, with another photo showing the pair cuddled up together in white dressing gowns.
Now back in the UK – and seemingly apart – Katie took to Instagram to reaffirm her love for Lee amid concern from her family.
“Despite all the noise going on, I miss you Lee,” she said in a video posted on her Stories.
“I love you unconditionally,” she concluded, kissing her huge diamond engagement ring.
The Sun understands Katie’s family, including her children, Princess and Junior Andre, had no idea she was getting married for a fourth time.
“They’re planning on sitting down with her for a serious talk today,” the insider said.
“Everyone is worried she’s spinning out of control.
“They haven’t even met this man and if she’s only known him a week, he could be anyone.
“Nobody is planning to hold back.”

Katie’s new husband Lee claims to be a billionaireCredit: UnknownA resurfaced clip shows him acting in a US short filmCredit: UnknownThe couple tied the knot on Sunday just two days after announcing their engagementCredit: Unknown
Now a YouTube video has resurfaced showing Lee starring in a US short film titled Altum Ratio, in which he plays a man grieving the loss of his wife.
During the clip Lee is heard using an unconvincing American accent while giving his best performance.
Failed actor is just another title to add to Lee’s questionable CV, after he claimed to have once worked as the Director of Philanthropy at The Prince’s Trust (now The King’s Trust).
Lee also shared images – since proven to be AI – of him working with Elon Musk and Kim Kardashian.
It’s been revealed shameless Lee told former girlfriends that he had studied at Cambridge University, and has a PhD in biotechnology science.
But The Sun has seen a response from the university explaining it could not find a record of Lee being registered as a student with a date of birth they had provided.
His LinkedIn profile says Lee has been a Member of the Board of Advisors to the Labour Party since 2015.
But a Labour source said: “We don’t have a board of advisors and he doesn’t work with us.”
The King’s Trust also confirmed Lee does not hold the role of Director of Philanthropy, and it has no record of him as a volunteer, or under the moniker Weslee Andrews, which he uses online.
Some have also accused Lee of giving Katie the same engagement ring that he gave to his ex-wife Dina Sari Taji.

Single mum-of-two Tina began chatting to Lee, thought to be 41, online in December 2024.
Katie’s new relationship timeline is muddied by the fact she appeared to have Lee’s name tattooed on her hand on January 12.
She told The Sun the tattoo and the purchase of their wedding rings came days after they first hit it off.
In other Katie Price news…
“How I met Lee was esoteric; we connected [by] both checking each others’ socials and quickly realised, ‘wow, this is for me’,” she said.
“In the old-fashioned way, first by words which captured us both.
“That evolved deeper as we connected further within days [getting] matching tattoos, and then both deciding to buy rings for the other.
“All this without even meeting, we let fate, but you could say destiny, decide.”
Lee then wed Katie in a quiet Dubai ceremony on Sunday – with none of their loved ones present – after they connected online.
It came just two days after Katie stunned friends and fans by revealing on Instagram that she had got engaged for a ninth time.

Tina, from Enfield, North London, said: “We had good banter and he always came across warm and respectful with me – that’s why the timeline has shocked me.
“To be speaking to me like that at the end of December – he was affectionate, explicit – then a month later he’s married… it just doesn’t make sense to me.
“I’m not trying to paint him as a bad person, because I was genuinely drawn to him as a person.
“I just know it didn’t align with the person he presented himself as to me. “I was genuinely shocked and, if I’m honest, a bit disappointed – because I’m someone who values integrity. It simply didn’t sit well with me.”
Tina, who ended a previous relationship last May, added: “After my break-up, I did play along more than before – but I still kept it to that same boundary, so there were no blurred lines.
“I told him that if we don’t find someone in the future, we will just marry each other.
“It was just flirty banter.”
British-Greek Tina has 19,000 Instagram followers on her account, @greeksuperwoman_official – where she frequently posts pictures flaunting her chiselled body.
In one exchange, on September 12, Lee responded to a picture Tina posted on her Instagram Story showing her toned abs, saying: “Gorgeous one!
“Absolutely looking amazing!!!!!!
“The things I’d do to you!!!
“When we are married.”
DOUBLE TROUBLE
Yesterday, we told how Lee had proposed to Katie in exactly the same way he did to his ex-girlfriend, Alana Percival, four months ago.
He gave her a chunky diamond ring and popped the question at Dubai’s swanky Burj Al Arab hotel by using rose petals to spell out the words: “Will you marry me?”
Brit real estate worker Alana, who is understood to have invested in one of Lee’s companies, got into a relationship with him after they met on a beach in the United Arab Emirates city last May.
But she called off their romance after becoming suspicious of his intentions.
Twice-married Lee was also today accused of proposing to Katie with the same ring he had given to his ex-wife, Dina Sari Taji, whom he reportedly was with from 2020 to 2024.
Lee is Katie’s fourth husband – following singer Peter Andre, ex-cage fighter Alex Reid, and personal trainer Kieran Hayler.
She only split from her Married At First Sight star ex JJ Slater, 32, earlier this month after nearly two years together.
The Sun revealed how Katie had married Lee on Sunday, two days after he proposed.
Our exclusive photographs showed former glamour model Katie, who has been married three times before, saying her vows with Lee in a top-secret location in Dubai.

Insiders said none of Katie’s family or friends knew she was getting married and found out on The Sun’s website.
A source added: “Everyone was gobsmacked.
“No one knew about the engagement, nor the wedding.
“The first time those close to her found out was on social media or in the news.
“Everyone is still in shock.”
Katie is set to speak about the whirlwind romance in full for the first time on her podcast with her sister, Sophie, later this week.
Katie, who has got matching tattoos with her new fella, told The Sun: “How I met Lee was esoteric.
“We connected by checking each other’s socials and quickly realised, ‘Wow this is for me’.”
Lee and Katie were approached for comment yesterday.

Now Lee’s mum Trisha has spoken out for the first time and revealed she knew the two were going to be getting hitched.
The clairvoyant from Nottingham told the Mirror: “As long as they are happy I am happy.
“There’s a lot of lies going around about Lee and that’s made me really upset. He’s not been married twice. I just want to defend my son, but I can’t say much more until I know everything.
“He did tell me that the wedding was happening. He spoke to me and if he is happy, I am happy – he’s my son, and that’s all that matters.”
Speaking about her new famous daughter-in-law, Trisha continued: “Of course, I know who Katie is.
“I’ve always been very neutral about her. Everyone deserves a chance, you should never judge anyone in life.”
She joked: “You can ask what it’s like to have a famous daughter-in-law, but she’s got a famous mother-in-law!”
On Friday, the reality star took to her Instagram stories to share a series of engagement pictures, sending fans into a frenzy.
In one photo, the mum-of-five was seen standing beside rose petals that were arranged to read ‘will you marry me’ before she showcased her huge diamond engagement ring.
However, just 48 hours later, she announced the pair had tied the knot in a quickie ceremony in Dubai, a move which has reportedly left her closest family and friends shocked.
In the pictures, the 47-year-old was seen beaming from ear to ear and locking lips with her new husband shortly after the ceremony.
Katie was seen in a cut-out, white bodycon dress while Lee wore white linen trousers and a taupe shirt.
The leggy dress displayed the reality TV legend’s toned abs and tattoos as she showed off her huge diamond ring.
The Sun understands Katie’s family were not aware of the wedding taking place and were not given prior warning it was happening.
An onlooker said: “Katie and Lee had no one with them when they got married. It was just the two of them.
“Katie couldn’t stop smiling, she seemed so taken with Lee. They said their vows and then kissed, it was sweet to watch.”
An officiator was seen in front of the pair reading from a script as they stood together in the sunshine saying their vows.
A family friend added: “Kate’s family are dumbstruck. To see she had got engaged after flying to Dubai – literally just after she had arrived was crazy.
“The fact she has now married him the following day is even more shocking.”
“No one knows who Lee is, they know nothing about him. Kate’s mum, her children, no one knew about the wedding.
“She has a lot of questions to answer when she comes home.”
