Katie Price is facing a personal nightmare as her husband Lee Andrews, 42, has gone missing, leaving the former glamour model “spiralling” in distress while her children Princess and Junior Andre rallied around their father at the red carpet.

The 18-year-old Princess and 20-year-old Junior showed their support for their dad Peter Andre at the gala for Mamma Mia! The Party at The O2 Arena, putting on a united family front with Peter’s wife Emily and Junior’s girlfriend Jasmine. The outing contrasted sharply with Katie’s frantic attempts to locate Lee, whom she claims was last “detained in a van” in Dubai.

Lee was supposed to reunite with Katie for a Good Morning Britain interview, but failed to board his flight, later claiming he had “things to do” and insisting he was en route. Katie has branded the saga a “soap opera” after he went radio silent.

The couple’s latest exchange, shared in WhatsApp messages, showed Lee claiming:

“It’s a black site, I love you, I sort it. I’m in the van… just being detained wtf.”

A friend told The Sun:

“Katie has been completely spiralling… This is NOT a publicity stunt — she just wants to know Lee is safe, then she can ask him some serious questions.”

Katie herself clarified a social media mix-up after another personality claimed Lee had been active online. She confirmed it was her checking his Facebook account, not him.

With the public drama unfolding, Katie’s children have stood firmly with Peter Andre, highlighting a striking contrast between family unity and the uncertainty surrounding Lee’s whereabouts.
