Katie Price has confirmed she has split from her fourth husband, Lee Andrews, nine months after they married.

The former glamour model, 48, announced she had tied the knot with the Dubai-based businessman in January – just a week after they met.

However, during an appearance on Good Morning Britain on Wednesday, Price announced her marriage had broken down.

Speaking to hosts Susanna Reid and Ed Balls, she described their relationship as “exhausting”.

She said: “I did fall in love with this man. He’s intelligent, we have fun…I do believe he fell in love with me. I still love the man I met…but I can’t take it.”

Price then called the end of their marriage “really sad”.

“There’s only so much I can take,” she added.

However, when asked by Balls if she was hopeful she might find love again, Price said: “One positive is that when he has been in Dubai and I haven’t been around him a lot, I’ve loved being on my own.

“In my own space without a man in my pocket. I’m not sitting here – like after previous relationships – with my heart broken. I am sitting here with a smile on my face because he’s done me a favour in a way, to realise that, of course, I can be on my own.

“I have loved it. It is a shame it has come to an end, because I can’t let this drag on and I won’t let it drag on.”

At the start of the interview, GMB also played a voice note sent in by Andrews.

He said: “As far as filing for divorce, I think that’s probably the best thing for it. She has her own points of view.

“Yes, we were madly in love, I do believe. I will never stop loving Katie – she was a big part of my life. I love her and I always will.”

Price and Andrews married just weeks after it was announced she had split from Married At First Sight star JJ Slater, 33, who she dated for nearly two years.

Price had previously been engaged nine times.

She was married to Peter Andre from 2005 until 2009, Alex Reid from 2010 until 2012, and Kieran Hayler from 2013 until 2021.
