Katie Price has confirmed she plans to meet her ex-husband Lee Andrews during her trip to Dubai, despite recently being seen wearing her wedding ring.
The star travelled to the UAE, where Lee is based, for a series of cosmetic procedures. However, she will also use the visit as an opportunity to see her former partner.
On the latest episode of her podcast The Katie Price Show, she told her co-host and sister Sophie: “Obviously, I am going to see Lee.”
In the pre-recorded episode, titled Yes I’m Going Back to Dubai, Katie said she was flying to the country on Wednesday for “bum filler”.
“I am going to Dubai on Wednesday and having some beauty stuff done out there, and some injectables in my bum,” she said.
The mother-of-five later explained: “I am having some bum filler, I am having some face stuff done and I will see Lee. There you go, there’s no speculation—you’ve heard it here. Obviously, I am going to see Lee.”

Sophie swiftly moved past the revelation, responding “OK” before taking the podcast on to its next section.
Katie, 48, also shared an Instagram video on Thursday evening, telling followers: “I am in Dubai and OMG I have slept terribly,” before promoting her CBD products.
Katie ended her relationship with “soulmate” Lee, 43, in September after discovering that the self-proclaimed millionaire had just £2.22 in his bank account.
Earlier this month, speculation grew that Katie had moved on after she was seen socialising with an artificial intelligence entrepreneur at the Glamour Awards in London.
The former glamour model was pictured with Felix Henderson, 32, founder and chief operating officer of the “AI boyfriend and girlfriend” app OhChat, as they shared drinks in the event’s VIP area.
Katie’s former Page Three persona, Jordan, is listed on Felix’s app as one of the creators users can interact with.
The images prompted some observers to suggest that Katie had moved on from Lee. However, she responded on Instagram:
“Just to clarify, Felix is a work colleague who was representing OhChat at the Glamour Awards,” adding that their meeting was “entirely work-related”.
On the previous week’s podcast, Katie discussed where she currently stands with Lee after he appeared to follow and then unfollow her on social media.

Her estranged husband had also posted a series of cryptic quotes that appeared to be directed at the former glamour model.
Katie joked: “Who’s Lee?” before continuing: “One minute I’m followed by him, then I’m unfollowed because I get sent things, and then he puts quotes up about me.”
“I can’t keep up with it myself. There you go…”
She also revealed that she has been unable to explore a new relationship because she is blocked from using the exclusive dating app Raya.
Speaking to Sophie, she said: “I put the wrong email in. Yeah, a couple of years ago. I don’t even know how to unblock it.”
“If I did want to date, that is the site I’d want to go on. If there’s anyone who works for Raya… I’ve never been on a dating site in my life, but it would be interesting to see who would come up for me.”
For now, Katie said she was content to remain single. “It’s about time, after all these years, that I realised I don’t need anyone,” she said.
“If I want someone, it’s because I want them. I love doing what I want and not having to explain myself to anyone.”
Katie reportedly split from “soulmate” Lee, 43, weeks after discovering that the self-proclaimed millionaire had £2.22 in his bank account
Katie and Lee recently reignited rumours of a reconciliation after Lee tagged her in a post about “soulmates”. Hours later, Katie shared the same message without tagging him.
The post, shared by both, read: “They say soulmates recognise each other instantly. I think that’s why I felt so comfortable from the start. I didn’t need time to understand how much you mean to me.”
“My heart already knew. You’re not just my person, you’re my forever.”
Katie has also been seen wearing her diamond engagement ring again.
Lee, meanwhile, has appeared in social media posts wearing his wedding ring and has followed Katie again on Instagram.
Katie removed all photographs of herself and Lee from her social media accounts last month. Lee has since made his profile private and now follows only Katie on the platform.
When approached for comment last week, Katie’s representative told the Daily Mail that, as far as they understood, the pair had not reunited.
Katie was reportedly preparing for a “messy divorce” from the alleged conman. It has also been reported that she is set to appear in a new Tinder Swindler-style documentary examining her husband’s alleged criminal activities.
The star is said to be joining a long list of people who claim to have been victims of the alleged fraudster.
Sources say the Sky documentary will examine the alleged conman’s methods and include accounts from people who claim to have lost money.
According to The Sun, the programme will be produced by Mindhouse, the company co-owned by documentary-maker Louis Theroux.
“This show examines the full story of Lee Andrews and the people he has affected,” an insider said.
“As with all Sky and Mindhouse documentaries, it will offer a 360-degree view of the story. It will not focus on one contributor, but will feature a range of voices to explore the truth behind the headlines.”
The alleged conman was recently released from Dubai’s Al-Awir jail for the second time this year in connection with various fraud charges.
During this week’s podcast, Katie also discussed Russell Brand’s conviction while reflecting on why she did not report an alleged rape by another British television personality 20 years ago.
Brand, 51, was sentenced to 10 and a half years in prison at Southwark Crown Court on Monday after being convicted of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault.
Katie, a former glamour model, said last October that she had not reported the celebrity she alleges raped her because she “didn’t want to get involved in it”. There is no suggestion that Brand is the person she was referring to.
That week, she shocked fans by naming the celebrity during her An Evening with Katie Price and Kerry Katona tour.
Following Brand’s sentencing, she spoke in greater detail about her alleged experience on The Katie Price Show podcast.
She said on Thursday: “Obviously, I met Russell Brand a few times years ago. My former security man Danny later went on to work as Russell’s security.”
“Anyway, I’m glad he was sentenced because of the victims. It means a lot to them.”
Katie Price also addressed Russell Brand’s conviction during the latest episode of her podcast
“I just hope more victims come forward. There have been so many drama series and true stories where rape victims were not believed, and where police mocked or dismissed them.”
“My advice to victims is to stay strong and come forward, because doing so can help protect others and put these predators away.”
“I believe there are now more investigations involving Russell Brand. I know of cases where people have been found guilty in other courts but not in a criminal court. I always say that if someone has not been convicted in a criminal court, it does not necessarily mean they are innocent.”
“So, yes, there’s no smoke without fire in any case, really. I was shocked. I actually thought Brand would receive more than 10 years.”
Katie then referred to her own alleged experience, saying: “I think I’ve been quite lucky. Because of my personality, I would say something if I felt I was going to be assaulted… apart from the presenter who everyone knows raped me, and I didn’t come forward at the time.”
