Katie Price has pushed back on claims her husband Lee Andrews has been ‘detained in Dubai airport’ after attempting to travel to the UK for a live TV interview.

The reality TV star appeared on Good Morning Britain with Ed Balls and Susanna Reid by herself on Tuesday morning, with the breakfast show confirming husband Lee was meant to be joining her but failed to get his flight over.

They shared a video of him at the airport in Dubai last night promising his attendance for his first live interview in the UK with his wife of five months – but he never made it over.

Ed then revealed that GMB had contacted the UK Foreign Office to query whether Lee had a travel ban, to which they responded that they had ‘supported a British man who was detained in the United Arab Emirates’.

The mum-of-five was quizzed about whether he had been ‘arrested’ and immediately denied that this is the case, claiming she messaged Lee to ask whether he had been detained.

‘He’s just done a voicenote back with laughing emojis saying: “No, it’s not me” in the voicenote. And he’s just sent me pictures, he’s now at the airport and is on his way,’ she said on GMB.

When asked what happened yesterday, then, she continued: ‘He just didn’t make the flight. He’s coming over here to spend quite a few months now so he’s been sorting out my visa, my international driving license and he was flying from Muscat.’

Metro has reached out to the Foreign Office for comment.
