Katie Price has called it quits with her husband Lee Andrews after discovering he had just £2.22 in his crypto bank account, not the £37million he had promised.
The former glamour model, 48, has apparently consulted a divorce lawyer about pulling the plug on their whirlwind eight-month marriage.
Furious Katie’s final message to conman hubby Lee, 43, on WhatsApp, read: ‘I have been played and you are not who you say you are. Why have you lied to me?’
Lee, who is currently back in a Dubai jail, is thought to be trying to find the funds to pay the fine for his release, but is struggling to do so. Katie has no plans to fly out to see him.
Katie was wearing her wedding ring at Manchester Pride but sources close to the situation said she has ‘come to her senses’ over Lee.
The insider told the publication: ‘It was, of course, an accumulation of many things but the final straw came after Lee had told Katie he had $50million (£37million) in a crypto wallet, and promised her some of the funds.
‘He gave her the “recovery phrase” – the passkey – to get into his account, and on Monday she had a financial expert access the wallet – and, to her shock, discovered it contained just $3, or £2.22.
‘Lee never had $50million; he doesn’t have a bean. The most he ever had on any one day was in March for $14,490 (£10,720) which was sent out the very same day.’
Days after Pride, Katie ditched her ring while enjoying a wild late summer trip to Marbella, partying with pals.
Katie’s eight-month marriage to Lee has been tumultuous to say the least.
Since tying the knot with the controversial business leader following a whirlwind romance, Katie’s relationship has been plagued with drama including Lee’s prison stints, kidnapping, his various lies and accusations of scamming his exes.
