Her nuptials came just days after her split from Married At First Sight star JJ Slater became public knowledge. Concerns have circulated among her followers after allegations surfaced accusing Lee Andrews of faking photographs with celebrities and exaggerating his business credentials.

Katie candidly shared, “I bet everyone’s thinking, what’s going on in the Katie Price world? Well, you guys tell me because I’m reading it as it unfolds, just like you.” She acknowledged the rumors and her awareness of the circulating information, adding, “I want everyone to know I’m a grown a*** woman. I’m 48 this year, not a young kid. I’ve learned a lot through therapy and learning to love myself.”
Defending her choices, she said, “I’m not stupid, I know what I’m doing, and if I’m happy, that’s all that matters.” She further emphasized, “At the end of the day, no one knows what I know. It’s only been speculated by the press. I am very happy, and that’s what’s important.”
Katie reassured her audience, “I can’t wait to go back to Dubai for the weekend. If there’s anything to update you on, I will. But right now, there’s nothing to worry about. I’m really happy, and that’s what I need to say.”
