Lee Andrews Missing in Dubai: Katie Price’s Husband Vanishes at Hatta Border After Chilling ‘They’re Coming For Me’ FaceTime

The last image Katie Price has of her husband is a FaceTime call: Lee Andrews, wearing a hood, hands restrained, telling her the words no spouse wants to hear — that someone was coming back for him. Then the line went dead. His phone location vanished at 10:03 PM on Wednesday, May 13. Five days later, he has still not been found.

What began as a puzzling no-show on British morning television has escalated into a missing persons investigation spanning two countries, a British Embassy filing in Dubai, and direct contact between Price and the head of the Dubai CID. The case has gripped British tabloid media — and raised serious questions that neither police nor the couple’s representatives have yet been able to answer.

A Precise Timeline of a Disappearance

Mon, May 12, 2026

Lee Andrews fails to board a flight from Dubai to the UK, missing his scheduled appearance on Good Morning Britain alongside Katie Price.

Wed, May 13 — 10:00 PM

Katie’s last FaceTime call with Andrews. He appeared hooded and restrained, reportedly inside a van near the Oman border, and told her: “I’ve just been captured or arrested… they’re coming back for me.” The call cut off suddenly.

Wed, May 13 — 10:03 PM

Andrews’ phone location disappears entirely. No contact since — with Katie, his family, or anyone else.

May 15–16, 2026

Andrews’ family files an official missing persons report with the British Embassy in Dubai. Katie makes contact with the head of CID in Dubai. He is formally declared a missing person.

May 18, 2026

No confirmed sightings. No official statement from UAE authorities. Investigation ongoing across British and Emirati channels.

 

The Hatta Crossing and Why It Matters

The geographic detail in this case is significant and largely underreported. Hatta is a UAE exclave on the Omani border — a remote, mountainous area that serves as a crossing point for travellers moving between Dubai and Oman. It is not a major international airport hub. For Andrews to have been attempting to cross at Hatta rather than departing via Dubai International Airport raises immediate logistical questions: why that route, and why at 10 PM? The terrain and relative isolation of the crossing make it a particularly concerning place to lose contact with someone.

A Marriage Already Under Public Scrutiny

The backdrop to this investigation is a relationship that was never out of the headlines. Katie Price and Lee Andrews — a Big Brother contestant — married in January 2026 after just ten days of knowing each other. Price herself called their dynamic a “soap opera.” When Andrews failed to appear on Good Morning Britain, Price sat through the live interview alone and later publicly confronted him on her podcast, saying she felt humiliated and told him never to put her in that position again.

That history has led some online commentators to speculate the disappearance is staged. Price’s team has pushed back sharply. A source close to her told The Sun that she is devastated by those suggestions and had no part in whatever has happened.

What Investigators Are Working With

Investigators have a defined last-known location, a specific timestamp, and an account — from Price — of what Andrews said and how he looked in that final call. Whether UAE authorities classify his disappearance as a kidnapping, an arrest, or something else entirely will determine the diplomatic and investigative path forward. The British Embassy’s involvement signals that UK authorities are treating this as a serious consular matter, not a domestic missing persons case that will resolve itself quietly.

Until UAE authorities or the Andrews family release verified information, everything beyond those confirmed facts remains speculation. What is not speculation is this: a 22-year marriage into a whirlwind relationship, a man last seen hooded and restrained near an Omani border crossing, and a clock that has now been ticking for more than five days.
