Katie Price has claimed that the Good Morning Britain interview she took part in last Monday did NOT go to plan at all as it was ‘serious’ and went ‘too quick’.
The former glamour model, 47, appeared on the sofa earlier this month (16 March) to set a few things straight in a tell-all chat.
Katie hit back saying ‘you can’t really know anyone’ as she was quizzed live on GMB over ‘concerningly quick’ marriage to Lee Andrews, insisted that her husband DOES have a PhD, and confirmed that she is ‘healthy’ after Susanna admitted that she’s ‘concerned for her weight’.
In a new vlog on her YouTube channel, talking straight after being live on air, the mum-of-five opened up about how she felt about the interview.
Katie said to the camera: ‘Oh my god, I was sitting there and they are trying to be serious, and I’m trying to be all happy and breezy and they’re like…
‘”Well don’t you think that…?” “Well, no, not really!”

‘Well they’re trying to be really serious, which is cool, they can do it. But it went so quick! I didn’t even feel I answered anything!
‘I only felt like I was on there for a minute!
‘Like that… bombard, bombard, bombard. I’m like “Yeah, yeah, and this, and this, and this!’
The person filming Katie asked if she could remember what they asked.
Rolling her eyes, she replied: ‘They asked about my weight.’
She continued: ‘They asked “Do I think it’s too quick, what do my family and friends all think, the PhD!
‘I said no, he hasn’t got it in Cambridge, it’s somewhere else in Spain.’
Katie married businessman Lee at the One&Only Royal Mirage hotel in Dubai in January, leaving her family, including her mother Amy Price ‘traumatised’ – and fans concerned that she ‘didn’t know’ who she was marrying.
However, the media personality took to the ITV daytime show last Monday to hit back against critics, insisting she was ‘happy’ and that she can ‘make her own decisions’.
Susanna opened up the chat by admitting that she would be ‘concerned’ if she was a friend of the mother-of-five knowing she had married a man she had just met, explaining: ‘If you were a friend of mine… I think I would be concerned about you.
‘I’m not sure you’ve had time to get to know the person to whom you are now married, so why the whirlwind?’
Hitting back against the presenter, Katie began: ‘Do you ever really know anyone? If you look at my past marriages, did I ever know they would be what they would be. Sometimes I don’t think you can ever know who anyone is…
‘For me, I’ve gone through so much, so many different relationships, and I normally went from one to the other… before I’ve always been in toxic, coercive, controlling, mental abuse, physical abuse relationships.
‘Now, I now know the signs of red flags and I am older, I can make my own decisions and there’s nothing to say that you have to wait for anything.
‘It’s hard for anyone to understand. It just feels so right, I’ve only been in love twice before that, with Dane Bowers and Peter [Andre].
‘With Lee, it’s so different to every other relationship, and it works for me.’
As Susanna tried to chime in with more questions, Katie continued: ‘Every relationship I’ve had I’ve met them, they’ve met the kids and moved in and they are just in my space and I want to have time for me to do things for me.
‘It works very well, he lives in Dubai – when I’ve got the kids, I’ve got the kids and when I haven’t, then I can see him, and it just works well for me.’
Katie confirmed that Lee was still yet to ‘meet the family and the kids’ in person, clarifying: ‘They have all seen him on FaceTime.
‘For me to introduce him to the kids, I won’t be introducing them to him yet because I want to get to know him more myself.
‘We speak every single day, we FaceTime all the time, people can meet people across the world like on Facebook, or in the olden days they used to write love letters to each other and nobody knocked that, but because it’s me and the way I do things…
‘I’ve seen what I want to see, I am so happy, people shouldn’t underestimate me and my decisions, I’m older, I’ve learned a lot and it feels right for me, I’m happy.
‘I just want people to be happy for me.’
Asked whether it mattered what people thought of her marriage, Katie concluded: ‘I find it so disrespectful that I’ve chosen a man I want to be with and people have all these views.
‘I’ve had myself, I’m used to it, speculation and hearsay and people saying stuff about me… I know what I know about Lee and they should never underestimate.
‘Now, I want to get to know him and he wants to get to know me, and nobody will ever understand me and how I do things. I am so happy. Let people give us a chance.’
Since announcing their marriage, Lee has been accused of being a ‘scammer’ amid a host of boasts about his life, including his statement that he is a millionaire businessman with a PHD from Cambridge University and links to Elon Musk.
Last week, he took to Instagram to make further claims about his life, including a post about be coming a ‘future trillionaire’, detailing a ‘mysterious income’ and being a member of ‘the 1%’.
Katie previously hit back against criticism, insisting that he was ‘no cat-fisher or scammer’, telling The Sun: ‘I haven’t gone for a con man… please be happy for me.’
She even told fans that she had seen proof of his university degree and PhD, saying: ‘There was so much paperwork, his PHD, is like in a binder like that.
‘I proper looked at everything, because the stamps, they’re like wax some of them, and you can’t, do you know what I mean? You can’t fake.
‘You know when you’ve got certificates and it’s like the watermarks in them, it’s all like that. Everything he’s shown me is so legit, I’m not stupid. They’re not copies, they’re originals.’
But claims that Lee had been to Cambridge were then debunked by the publication, as the university said they ‘could not find a record of Lee being registered as a student’ t the Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology.
Nonetheless, Katie insisted that Lee DOES have a PhD as she appeared on GMB, telling hosts Susanna and Ed it was instead from a ‘Spanish’ university.
Ed began: ‘His passport says that he’s a doctor, it’s reported that he has a PhD from Cambridge, but Cambridge University said they had never heard of him.’
Katie responded: ‘He doesn’t have a PhD from Cambridge, it’s one in Spain.
‘That’s for him to say that he’s got his PhD, but it’s not from Cambridge, I don’t know where that came from, he hasn’t got a PhD from Cambridge at all but he has got a PhD.
‘I’ve seen everything I need to see, on his diplomatic passport, it’s Doctor Lee Andrews, on his normal passport, it’s Wesley Lee Andrews.’
In her latest vlog, Katie cleared up: ‘In his thesis, or whatever it is called, that’s from Cambridge, but the PhD was in Spain.
‘So yeah I got that wrong. The PhD wasn’t Cambridge, the thesis, he done at Cambridge, what I saw, the PhD he got in Spain.’

After quizzing the model about her new man, Katie’s weight got brought up in conversation, after many fans have shared their worries about her frame.
It comes after back in January, Katie told fans that she was seeking medical help as she reacted to ‘gaunt’ photos.
Susanna said: ‘Katie, can I ask, because I am concerned about your weight. You are very, very, very, skinny.’
Katie replied: ‘Yes, and I am glad you asked this!’
‘Now, people do say, is it because you are overdoing the weight loss medication or are you a healthy weight? Have you got that established?’ Susanna asked.
In her response, Katie gave fans a health update and said: ‘People that follow me online will know I have lost weight.
‘I recognise I have lost weight. I look too skinny, I look gaunt.
‘So I have been to the doctors, to see why am I losing, I have done all the blood tests, I have even done the poo one, as well, to find out.’
Susanna asked: ‘The doctor says you are okay?’
Katie explained: ‘I said to them, everyone said I am on Ozempic, they said, well we can tell in your bloods you’re not.
‘I am lacking in iron, they are now checking the other bit.
‘And I am going through pre menopause at the moment as well.’
She added: ‘I am healthy, so nobody worry about me.’
Susanna said: ‘You are healthy, and you are happy.’
‘Yes, very happy,’ Katie replied.
