Overview
- Lee Andrews has been formally reported missing and the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office says it is supporting his family and liaising with local authorities.
- His wife, Katie Price, says the last contact was a FaceTime on May 13 in which Andrews appeared hooded with ties on his hands and told her “they're coming back for me,” after which his location tracking stopped.
- Dubai’s Criminal Investigation Department has told reporters it has no record of Andrews being held in UAE custody, leaving the alleged kidnapping unconfirmed by local police.
- Price has published what she says are Andrews’s final texts claiming he was arrested or taken to a “black site,” but independent checks, reported phone activity and source disputes have produced conflicting accounts.
- Andrews’s past fraud convictions and family criticism of Price’s public appeals have fuelled public scepticism and intense social‑media sleuthing, which officials and commentators warn may complicate formal enquiries and the family’s distress.
