Katie Price has reportedly shocked her family once again after undergoing ‘beach bum’ surgery just weeks after her surprise wedding in Dubai to businessman Lee Andrews.
Katie Price’s shock beach-ready honeymoon with new husband Lee Andrews has once again left family and friends fearing for her physical and mental health.
The former glamor model revealed the results of her latest treatment – a non-surgical £2,000 lift – on Instagram last week ahead of reuniting with the Dubai-based businessman.
Showing off the results online, a delighted Katie said: “Oh my gosh. I’m so happy. Now I’m beach bum ready. My body looks amazing. I love it. I had a bit more filler. Looks like a bum. Ready for my holiday.”

Despite her excitement about her new derriere, Katie’s friends worry the procedure is just another clue that her head is not in a good position.
“Her family told her she should stop the surgery and that it looks terrible, but she’s jumped at another procedure — just like she always does when she’s hurt or going through something traumatic,” our source says.
“It’s a quick fix to make her feel better, but she looks painfully thin and another procedure is the opposite of what her body should be putting through right now. It’s incredibly worrying.”
Katie underwent a non-surgical BBL (Brazilian butt lift), which usually involves injecting dermal fillers to add volume, at UK-based The Clinic Hub and proudly showed off the results in a skimpy orange thong.
Meanwhile, Lee, 43, who has remained in Dubai since their wedding due to an alleged travel ban, told fans of their honeymoon plans, saying they planned to leave in a few days.
“We’re going to fly together for our honeymoon, remotely,” she said after denying the travel ban claims. “I’m not going to tell you where we’re going, but it’s in the next 72 hours. So, I can fly and you’ll see we hit somewhere”.
But after Katie, 47, admitted her marriage could ‘end up in disaster’, it is believed her family are preparing for the worst. A source tells the outlet that they’ve been holding “emergency team meetings” to come up with a plan to deal with whatever bombshells the reality star might throw at them next. “Her family and friends are worried beyond belief — it seems like one thing after another,” says the source.
“They have their heads in their hands and feel there’s nothing more they can do. They don’t like what they’ve heard about Lee and Katie looks thinner than ever.
“But it all falls apart. Katie does what Katie wants to do.”
The drama came as Katie and her first husband, Peter Andre, stunned fans by publicly vowing never to badmouth each other in the future.
In a joint statement shared on social media last Friday, they said they had decided to “move into a new chapter with positivity and respect.” They continued, “We have come to a mutual agreement, both legally and personally confirming that neither of us
will speak negatively about the other in the future. This decision reflects a shared commitment to our family and stability.
“We want to be united for our children. We hope this is a start The deal comes after father-of-five Pete claimed Katie had made ‘baseless allegations’ against him and subjected him to ‘repeated lies’.
The singer finally broke out last year after Katie kicked it out because she was left out of their daughter Princess’ 18 birthday celebrations and called Pete’s management team “pathetic” and “sad”.
Amid decidedly tumultuous times, even by Katie’s standards, our source tells us that her loved ones feel they may have to take drastic measures in an attempt to give it meaning.
“The family is having emergency group sessions to figure out what to do next,” our source says. “They are so worried about her health but feel that nothing they can do or say will help. “He doesn’t seem to be in his right mind. They’re on the point of cutting her off in a way that might make her sit up and realize what she’s doing.”
Mum-of-five Katie married Lee in January after only knowing him for a few days – and less than a fortnight after it was announced she was splitting from Married At First Sight co-star JJ Slater.
Since then, questions have been raised about her new relationship, with claims that Lee had reportedly proposed to another woman just four months before meeting Katie. It was also claimed that Lee cannot leave Dubai due to the aforementioned travel ban, allegedly stemming from a prison sentence for suspected fraud last October – which he denies.
Last week, Katie hit back at the headlines by insisting she knows what she’s doing. Posting on Snapchat, she said: “I appreciate everyone and their feedback, but everyone knows I would do what I want to do. “And if things end in disaster, it happens. If it doesn’t, it doesn’t. Life is too short. Live each day like it’s the last.”
In another blow to fans, the star put her podcast, The Katie Price Show, hold. In a message posted on the podcast’s Instagram page, it was announced that the weekly show – which Katie co-hosts with her younger sister Sophie – will be put on ‘pause’ due to the turmoil surrounding Katie’s new marriage.
“With so much media attention, it’s not right to release an episode at this time,” the statement read. “The podcast has always noticed the headlines, not added them.”
