Katie Price Marries Lee Andrews in Secret Dubai Ceremony

has made her marriage to her fourth husband legally binding in a secret second ceremony in Dubai - and she hasn't signed a pre-nup. 

The former glamour model, 47, shocked fans when she married the so-called businessman, 41, in  in January just two days after getting engaged. 

The Daily Mail revealed at the time the wedding had no legal weight and was just a symbolic ceremony. 

It took place in the grounds of the £600-a-night One and Only Royal Mirage, a five-star hotel on Dubai's famous Palm Jumeirah island. 

However, latest documents show Katie and Lee formally registered their marriage on February 17 at Abu Dhabi’s judicial department.

Photos show the couple casually dressed, with Katie rocking jeans and a sweatshirt as they said their vows.  

The whirlwind marriage comes Katie doubled down on her insistence that husband isn't 'a con man or a scammer' and that she's 'the happiest I’ve ever been'.  

Katie revealed she has so much trust in her new husband that she declined to sign a pre-nup before their whirlwind wedding.

The television personality also addressed her family concern and the accusations his ex-partners have made as well as claims about his finances, business acumen and celebrity-links being revealed as false. 

Insisting she's 'not stupid', she said Lee - who has claimed to be both a millionaire and billionaire previously - has shown her documents to attest to his wealth and has proof of purchase that he paid for his new £36million home in Dubai in cash.

Katie said she's also done her due diligence by speaking to his father and his Russian ex-wife Cezara, and declares Lee 'ticks every box'. 

She told The Sun: 'I thought I'd been in love before but this feels different. It's not even about lust, it's just instant connection on all levels. I fell in love with him long before I had sex with him.'

She said they first connected after Lee came up as a suggested follow on Instagram and she took the opportunity to slide into his DMs, with the pair going on to message back and forth up to five hours a day, before finally meeting in person in Dubai.

Yet her loved ones were said to have been blindsided by the whirlwind nuptials, and are reported to have expressed their concerns about the marriage and are 'anxious this is a potential scam'.

However, Katie dismissed her family's worries, insisting that she was not a kid and that 'my life isn't normal', so they had to 'let me be me'. 

She acknowledged their feelings, saying: 'Of course my family are going to worry, I wouldn't expect anything different. They love me and they've seen me go through so much heartache, and the most horrific times. 

'So I don't blame them for being p***ed off and angry. They love me and I love them too. But I'm not a kid anymore, I am 47, I can make my own choices, and I will. They have to give me that chance to go and find out for myself.'

Katie's sister Sophie has previously hinted at her disapproval of her new marriage and said their podcast would be '' for the foreseeable future.

In January, she shared a video of rolling British fields with the caption: 'This and never stepping foot in Dubai,' after telling her followers she'd had 'one hell of a week' following news of the wedding.

While last month, she tellingly reposted a clip of physician Dr Gabor Maté discussing the various approaches that families can make in difficult times. 

The video ends with the words: 'I'm not going to try and change you. I just hope you come to your senses at some point. But I'll be with you and I'll be supporting you.'

While her five children are still yet to meet the businessman, eldest children Princess, 18, and Junior, 20, said on This Morning last month that the family are 'happy as long as she's happy'.

Princess admitted: 'I've not met him', as Junior continued: 'Our mum is her own person, she's her own woman, she's going to do what she's going to do and at the end of the day, we're supportive of her as long as she's happy.'

'As long as she's happy that's all I care about,' he added, as Princess chimed in: 'If she's happy, we're happy.'

Lee and Katie maintain that they are very much in love and that he will be coming to the UK soon to have a bigger wedding with family and friends, despite frequent claims from his ex, Alana Percival that he is legally bound to the UAE.

While he has presented himself as a high-flying business mogul, the Daily Mail shattered the illusion by revealing that he has been banned from leaving Dubai after spending three weeks locked up in a UAE jail for allegedly forging his ex-girlfriend's signature to secure a £200,000 loan.
