Katie Price has shared the last text messages her husband Lee Andrews sent her before he mysteriously disappeared in Dubai one week ago. In a desperate attempt to locate the missing Dubai-based businessman, the model shared their final correspondence ahead of what was meant to be their first joint television appearance on Good Morning Britain , which Andrews, 43, never made after failing to board his flight back to the UK.

In a video shared on YouTube, Price, 47, revealed she received a series of WhatsApp messages from Andrews between 12.36 am and 1.01 am on Wednesday morning UK time, in which he told her he had been arrested and taken to an unknown location.

Lee Andrews' last messages to Katie PriceIn the messages shared by Price, Andrews wrote, "Been arrested. I'll be in touch. I'm ok xx." A worried Price responded asking where he was and why he had been arrested, telling him she loved him. Andrews replied that he had been forced into a van and taken to an unknown location, and that those detaining him had his other phone.

"It's a black site, I love you, I sort it. I'm in the van… just being detained wtf," he wrote, pleading with Price to contact the embassy and keep tracking his location. "Keep that on babe. Love you."

Price also revealed that she spoke to Andrews one final time on FaceTime, during which he had a hood over his head. "He had cable ties around his hand, not handcuffs, and a hood, and he said, 'Look, they're coming back for me,' that is the last FaceTime call I had. Then his phone went dead," she recalled. That was the last contact anyone had with him.

Katie Price hits back at publicity stunt claims In a further video shared on Monday, Price addressed the growing speculation that the entire ordeal had been fabricated. "It's been five days now since I've heard anything from Lee. None of his family has anything from Lee. His dad is out in Dubai, he's heard nothing, and the rest of his family is in the UK," she said.

Price said her anxiety levels were "sky high" and that being questioned online was only adding to her distress. "I know there's going to be stories coming out now because it's a hot topic. But, at the end of the day, guys, I have feelings, and people disrespect that. It's really not nice for me to be going through all of this, at all," she said.

She continued, "What everyone has to remember, as much as everyone's trying to take the piss out of everything and speculate this and speculate that, this isn't a game. This is real life. This is a serious situation for me. This isn't a scandal; this is something that's really happening, and there are real feelings involved here. I want to make it clear, again, everyone. This is not a publicity stunt. This is real. And anyone who thinks that I'm part of this is disgusting."

Lee Andrews' mother speaks outMeanwhile, Andrews' mother, Trisha, has also addressed the situation publicly. Responding to claims her son may have been abducted, she said, "I don't know, he could have been. I've not seen the video. I don't know the laws out there, but I wouldn't have thought they'd use cables. Wouldn't they put handcuffs on?"

Trisha confirmed the family remains in contact with Price and also clarified remarks she had previously made about Price "exploiting" the situation. "I think she's exploiting in general, that's what I meant. She's always putting things on social media, isn't she?" she said, before adding, "As I said, I get on with Katie. She puts too much on social media. I heard the conversation this morning between my daughter and her. She is worried. They love each other."

Price and Andrews married in January, just days after meeting in Dubai, and have been in a long-distance relationship since. Andrews has now been reported as a missing person both to the British embassy and authorities in Dubai.
