Katie Price has reportedly been left devastated after her missing husband Lee Andrews appeared to follow a mystery woman on Instagram — despite allegedly failing to contact Katie on her 48th birthday.
The bizarre saga surrounding the former glamour model and her self-styled “billionaire” husband has taken another dramatic turn after Lee’s Instagram account suddenly followed a woman named Mari Sol, who describes herself online as a “biker babe”, “Navy veteran” and member of a disaster response team.
The revelation comes just days after Katie publicly claimed she feared Lee had been kidnapped after receiving alarming messages from him saying he had been handcuffed, thrown into a van and then “went dark”.
According to reports, Katie was said to be “disgusted and appalled” after spotting the new follow — especially as she allegedly heard nothing from Lee on her birthday.
A source claimed: “Katie is disgusted and appalled. Today is her birthday yet she’s heard nothing from her husband but seeing him follow another woman online is just outrageous.”
Lee’s account had reportedly only followed Katie for months before the sudden appearance of Mari Sol on his following list. The New York-based blonde’s profile features selfies and references to travel, adventure and biker culture.
Meanwhile, Katie appeared to hint at her emotional turmoil with a cryptic Instagram post shared on her birthday. It read: “You can’t break a woman who has survived family issues, financial struggles, stress heartbreak and betrayal, yet still chose not to give up.”
The emotional message continued: “A woman like that does not fall easily. She rebuilds herself again and again, no matter how many times life tries to shake her.”
The latest twist comes after Katie admitted she is stepping back from the search for Lee “for her own sanity” while authorities continue investigating his disappearance.
Speaking on her podcast, she insisted: “There’s nothing I can do, nothing more that I can say. And the police are dealing with it.”
She added: “I’m not gonna talk about it anymore, I’m just staying quiet because it’s getting ridiculous now.”
Katie also claimed British police, the British consulate, the Foreign Office and even Interpol were now involved in attempts to locate Lee.
Despite the chaos surrounding the situation, Katie insisted she would not allow the ordeal to “ruin” her life.
“All I can do is just get on with my life,” she said. “I’ve got lots of exciting things coming up, and I’m just waiting for a call.”
The situation became even more dramatic when an episode of her podcast ended abruptly after Katie reportedly received a phone call from police mid-recording.
Her sister Sophie later returned alone to explain: “Kate has had to shoot off because she’s taking a call from the police.”
Katie also admitted she no longer knows what to believe amid growing scepticism surrounding Lee’s disappearance.
“I don’t know what’s true, what’s not true,” she confessed. “My antennas are up now.”
