Katie Price has been told to pay £140,000 if she wants to get husband Lee Andrews out of prison. The former glamour model, 48, jetted to Dubai last week to visit so-called businessman Lee, 43, in Al Awir Central Prison after spending weeks attempting to track him down. After learning her husband had been arrested for fraud allegations she was quick to rush to his side, and was prepared to spend £6,500 to release him after allegedly being told that was the fee required. Yet when Katie arrived at the courthouse with her credit card in hand, she was told the fee would instead be £140,000 because Lee is involved in another case awaiting a court date, this time relating to property.Discussing the saga, Katie explained that she had declined to pay the six-figure fee, but hammered home that despite rumours that it was all a ploy for publicity, it was all a genuine situation that she had found herself in.The mother-of-five then concluded that the only way he will get out of the prison is if she pays the money herself - which she now recognises would be reckless. Katie Price has revealed she was ordered to pay £140,000 to get Lee Andrews out of a Dubai prison as she confessed: 'I know people are calling me stupid'Katie told The Sun: 'This is real, this is real life; this is my life. It has been a tough few weeks, don't get me wrong. But I've still stayed strong through it all, and I have a smile on my face. 'So, in this situation, I'm doing what I want to do, and I'm out here in Dubai, because I'm here to help Lee.'Some people might not like my choices, but I'm not living for everyone else. I know people have been calling me stupid, I see all the trolling, I hear it. I am not stupid.' Since Katie married Lee, two of his exes came forward telling the television personality to 'run for the hills' and not to give him any money.His ex Crystal Janke, 40, claimed Lee hoodwinked her into handing over £123,000 to invest in his company, on the promise he could get a 'return of £1million'. Meanwhile, his ex-fiancée Alana Percival has also issued warnings on social media.During her time in Dubai, Katie met with his ex Dina Taji, who warned her 'face-to-face' about the jailbird 'conman'.The Daily Mail revealed in January, shortly after the former glamour model's shock wedding to the businessman, Lee took out a £200,000 mortgage in Dina's name without her knowledge.She then took legal action against him, resulting in Lee being slapped with a travel ban from Dubai.Dina has refused to talk publicly about Lee's underhand tactics, but agreed to meet up with the former Loose Women star to warn her about staying with her husband.After the meeting, Katie said: 'My eyes have been opened. I just need some time to think. I still cannot end things with Lee until I've spoken to him, but that was a lot.'While it was thought Katie was moving on, she did a complete 180 on Saturday night as she shared a post on her Story showing her wedding ring.She then made her feelings very clear as she declared in the caption: 'I love @wesleeeandrews' as she tagged his Instagram account.Friends say Katie will make the most of this latest drama as she continues to try to monetise her chaotic life as her followers enjoy her dramas and scrapes. Katie met up with conman husband Lee's ex-partner Dina for a 'woman-to-woman' chat in Dubai last week, after it was thought she'd accepted her marriage is over A close friend of the star told the Daily Mail recently before she put her wedding ring back on this weekend: 'Katie is in pieces. To the outside world she wants to keep up the bravado. But inside she can't believe how Lee has made her look.'He's pulled the wool over lots of people's eyes – especially women. And now, as it's all being played out in the public eye, she's at the forefront of the con.'The insider added: 'Lee is stuck inside that hellhole of a prison. And unless she or someone else stumps tens of thousands of pounds to get him out, he won't be released any time soon.'And whether as a former bankrupt Katie could come up with the money even if she wanted to is a big question.'It's looking like Lee's conman lifestyle has finally caught up with him. And the last place you would want to be locked up is in Dubai.'Katie is so confused, but ultimately it looks like she will be heading to the divorce court once again.'However, she will always try to cash in on the drama surrounding her hectic lifestyle.'
