Lee Andrews has appeared to have unfollowed his wife Katie Price on Instagram, despite the star’s claims he’s been detained in Dubai.
The businessman is currently in prison after going missing for two weeks, and has been incarcerated over a ‘private civil matter’ in Dubai’s Al Awir Central Prison.
Lee was scheduled to be released on Monday after paying a four-figure sum, and it now appears on his Instagram that he no longer follows his wife Katie. His bio still includes the words ‘Hubby to @katieprice.’
The Daily Mail has contacted a representative for Katie Price for comment.
Katie had lost access to her Instagram account after it was banned, but returned to the social media platform on Monday.
The platform temporarily removed her account, but she and her 2.6 million followers have all been reinstated, but with her husband Lee no longer a follower.

The former glamour model’s profile was taken down just hours after she claimed she and husband Lee had finally spoken, which added yet more confusion to the saga.
Sources later revealed it would be back up soon after a misunderstanding with Meta following complaints concerning nudity and her ‘flashing her breasts’, as well as the promotion of CBD gummies.
An insider claimed at the time: ‘Katie is furious. It’s absolutely ridiculous that she’s had her account deactivated after spending years building it up and gaining over two and a half million followers.
‘She was previously told it would be back up and running and now they’re saying she might have to start from scratch and have a brand new account with zero followers.’
The source told The Sun: ‘It feels like small-minded trolls complaining for the sake of it and Katie’s efforts to stay connected with all her fans is suffering as a consequence.’
The Daily Mail revealed last weekend that Lee had been arrested and is locked up in a Dubai prison, according to his father.
The star had been beset with worry after the so-called businessman went missing two weeks ago, but on Wednesday she confirmed she’d finally spoken to him after he called her from a prison in Dubai.
Her Instagram then vanished on Thursday.
Katie had been attempting to debunk some of the things that don’t add up from her husband Lee’s recent mysterious disappearance and prison stint.

Lee had previously told former glamour model Katie he had been kidnapped before then going under the radar for two weeks.
He has since claimed he’s been arrested on suspicion of espionage but it’s been reported that he was actually arrested on a civil matter and is now being held in the notorious prison.
In a chat on her podcast The Katie Price Show released on Thursday morning, Katie detailed her two-minute phone call with Lee – after he was thought ‘missing’ for two weeks – and attempted to explain some of the things that didn’t add up from the time he was gone.
Firstly, last week it had been reported that his phone had been ‘turned back on’ during his disappearance after he ‘went dark’ amid being detained.
He appeared to still be active on social media, and claims at the time suggested that he had been using his mobile phone.
A source claimed that one of Lee’s phones had been turned back on Sunday morning.
But Katie has now claimed that it is the people who are ‘interrogating’ Lee in prison who were using his phone.
She said: ‘I did ask him about the phone situation. He hasn’t been on his phone – he’s been interrogated and they’ve been on his phone. So they’ve been mucking around on his phone – it wasn’t Lee.’
She then also spoke about how she’d asked him about rumours that he had followed another woman online during his time missing, saying: ‘What happened with the woman was she activated her account and she followed him or he followed her.
‘But then she blocked him. They’ve never exchanged messages. But I did ask him “apparently you’ve followed another woman!…”‘
