katie price claims she's 'pregnant' again as friends voice alarm after whirlwind wedding
Katie Price has once again put her private life in the public spotlight, claiming she is 'having a baby' with husband Lee Andrews. The revelation — shared during a heated online post this week — has prompted alarm from friends and renewed scrutiny of Price's recent, fast-moving relationship and relocation to Dubai.
Fast marriage, Dubai move and public pregnancy claim
The 47-year-old said in a lengthy social-media post on February 19, 2026 (ET) that she and Andrews will soon be “three, ” using an emoji of a pregnant woman. The comment came amid an online tirade aimed at Andrews' former partner and has been followed by social-media activity that has fans and family questioning whether the claim is literal or rhetorical.
The couple married in a rapid ceremony following Price's split from her previous partner earlier this year. They have been living together in Dubai, where Andrews shared details of a potential future home and reportedly labelled a room for “kids, ” a move that further fuelled speculation about a growing family.
Friends concerned, IVF rumours and family dynamics
People close to Price say the pregnancy announcement has left them stunned and worried. Friends describe her as desperate for another child and claim that she has already begun or is planning fertility treatment. Those close to her say the push for a new baby feels urgent and has caused tension within her wider family circle.
Friends also express concern that Price has spent extended time away from some of her children since moving to the Middle East. She is mother to five children, including two from her marriage to a pop star ex and an eldest son born during a relationship with a Manchester United footballer. One of her children lives with complex medical needs, which friends say makes the current situation particularly fraught.
Price attempted in vitro fertilisation during a previous relationship, and that effort was documented in a television programme. Friends believe she is determined to try again and that the haste of the recent marriage and move may reflect how committed she is to expanding her family.
High-profile relationships that shaped a decades-long public life
Price's romantic history stretches back to the 1990s and has included several well-known figures. Her first notable public pairing was with a television gameshow star who proposed in 1996; the engagement ended two years later. By the late 1990s she was in a high-profile relationship with a member of a popular R& B group; that romance lasted about two years and ended amid tensions over her modelling work.
Following that split, she dated a Premier League footballer who later became the father of her eldest child. Initial doubts over paternity were resolved with a DNA test that confirmed his fatherhood. She also had an earlier long-term partner and, more recently, a short relationship with a reality television figure prior to her marriage to Andrews.
Price’s personal life has been a constant focus of media attention for decades, and the latest developments have again stirred debate about the pressures she faces, her decisions around fertility and the welfare of her children amid fast-changing circumstances.
As events continue to unfold, friends and family remain watchful. Whether the recent social-media claim will be followed by a confirmed pregnancy or further clarification from Price and Andrews remains to be seen.
