SHE’S gearing up for what could be one of showbiz’s messiest divorces.
But we can reveal that savvy Katie Price is determined that her split from ‘conman’ Lee Andrews won’t leave her broke, and she’s already in talks for her next big-money show.

The 48-year-old is planning to hit the road with a music tour this time and she wants to call it Katie’s Big Bangers.
Our insider said: “Katie’s singing might be considered a bit of a laughing stock to some people but she knows it could be a real money-spinner.
“Her songs have become quite iconic in many ways and there is no doubt she is a real entertainer.
“She wants to perform to people around the country and she has a great relationship with a theatrical production company, who will help make that happen.”
Katie will first be going on tour in February with her sister Sophie for live podcast shows, and a music tour is said to be planned for later in the year.
The star is no stranger to money issues – she has been made bankrupt twice before and has spent the past two years building up her wealth again.
Our source added: “She is determined not be in financial trouble again. She’s been working really hard to get enough income to be comfortable – with her OnlyFans and various other projects, but she is all to aware of how easily it can be lost.
“There is a real worry Lee is going to try and take half of what she’s worth.”
They added: “She does not want to be his next con, and is hoping they can split amicably.”
Last year, Katie’s music enjoyed an unexpected resurgence in popularity amid the public tensions with her ex-husband, Peter Andre.
I Got U, which was originally released in 2017, reached Number 1 on the UK iTunes Chart in August 2025. It also hit Number 2 on the Official Singles Downloads Chart.
It is a far cry from the ridicule she famously received after her duet with her ex Peter or indeed, when she did Eurovision, dressed in a pink latex jumpsuit while pregnant.
Katie is likely to need as much public support as possible in the coming months as she tries to rid Lee from her life.
Katie, ended the eight-month marriage via WhatsApp at the start of the week after learning that her ‘conman’ hubby had just £2.22 in a crypto bank account despite claiming to be a billionaire.
Her pals have been begging her to dump Lee for months and are glad that she has finally been able to see sense and make the decision to move on from the short marriage.

The couple wed within ten days of meeting in January, making the relationship legally binding in a Dubai court the following month.
A UAE judge oversaw their nuptials, and they were given a wedding certificate. However, their marriage was plagued by stories of his dodgy dealings.
But things could get tricky from now on. Family barrister Rhianna Manani said: “Even without a pre-nup, the fact this appears to have been an incredibly short marriage would be relevant in the event of any dispute about finances.
“The fact they married abroad doesn’t necessarily make it any less valid here, but it will depend on whether the correct legal requirements were followed.
“If the marriage is recognised, Katie may face another hurdle. You generally have to be married for at least a year before you can apply for divorce in England and Wales.
“An annulment is different because you can apply at any time, but isn’t simply a quick alternative to divorce. It’s only available on specific legal grounds.”

While pals are “over the moon” the relationship is over, we told yesterday how they are understood to already have their concerns that Katie could be tempted to reunite with Lee, who has been in Al Awir prison, Dubai, for the past eight weeks, despite all the shocking accusations facing him.
Those close to her have conceded how Katie struggles to be ‘without a man’ which could see her return to her jailed ex.
They told The Sun: “Their only hope is that she won’t go back again and that she’ll take a real break for herself.
“When she split from JJ, she promised herself she would, but she didn’t.
“Her friends really want her to spend time with her family and the kids, and just be on her own for a while, without a man.
“Because every man seems to bring more drama into her life.
“The problem is, Katie doesn’t like being without a man, and her friends worry she’ll just jump straight into another relationship like she always does.”
But despite concerns, Katie has already thrown herself into work and has been spending quality time with friends and family.
And who knows, maybe she’ll take a leaf out of Taylor Swift’s playbook and write some cracking break-up songs…
