The self-professed millionaire, 43, who was recently released from prison in Dubai for the second time, reportedly tried to flog an X-rated video he said he&#8217;d made with the former glamour model, 48, leaving her fans and family distraught.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Lee, who later insisted he was only joking about the tape, caused outrage with his latest &#8216;business venture&#8217;. However, Katie insists that the couple never made a video together and that the whole thing was said in jest.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Defending her man, who was reportedly trying to sell the sex tape in a leaked voice mail, she said: \u201cI\u2019ve never done a sex tape with him. I learnt that from back in the day with [ex-boyfriend] Dane Bowers \u2013 never.<\/p>\n<div xmlns:default=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" data-testid=\"image-group\"><button type=\"button\" class=\"SlideViewerButton_slide-viewer-button__BDJoG\" aria-label=\"Open image viewer\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-controls=\"image-lightbox\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"ImageEmbed_image-embed__0T8WX false\" data-testid=\"imageembed-37523953\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-articleid=\"37523953\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"image\">\n<div class=\"ImageEmbed_image-container__2AIQm\">\n<figure class=\"Figure_figure__Uce4f\" style=\"--figure-aspect-ratio:1.7316017316017316\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Katie Price\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"(max-width: 458px) 458px, (max-width: 615px) 615px, 1200px\" src=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37523953.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s1200e\/0_Katie-Price.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37523953.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s458b\/0_Katie-Price.jpg 458w, https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37523953.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/0_Katie-Price.jpg 615w, https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37523953.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s1200e\/0_Katie-Price.jpg 1200w\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"ImageCaption_caption__j7HRu\" data-testid=\"image-caption\">\n<p aria-label=\"Katie Price is adamant she never made a sex tape with Lee Andrews\" class=\"ImageCaption_caption-title__ccyQU\" data-testid=\"caption-title\">Katie Price is adamant she never made a sex tape with Lee Andrews<cite aria-label=\"Image: andrew gold\/Youtube\" class=\"ImageCaption_caption-credit__wlx1W\" data-testid=\"caption-credit\">(Image: andrew gold\/Youtube)<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">\u201cI always say to my kids, never \u2013 and I say to anyone who\u2019s listening from the younger generation \u2013 send a picture to anyone naked showing your bits. One, it\u2019s in the Cloud. You never know, it can be shared. Never do it. So I would never do it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Claiming Lee was &#8216;joking&#8217; about the selling the sex tape, she told Andrew Gold&#8217;s Heretics podcast: \u201cHe said it as a joke in a voice note somewhere and I sent it to my sister because the email came through to us and I said, Look, he said it as a joke. I said I haven\u2019t even done a sex tape and then it\u2019s come out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Katie continued: &#8220;I\u2019m not saying everyone\u2019s lying because you can\u2019t have smoke without fire, so I am going to ask him questions when he comes out. Obviously I wouldn\u2019t hurt anyone and I don\u2019t want to be with someone who\u2019s proper scamming other people. That\u2019s not the kind of person I want to be with either.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">However, defending her husband&#8217;s character, the mum-of-five added: \u201cI\u2019m in the middle. I want to protect people. I want to protect myself, but also he\u2019s done nothing to me. The Lee I know is not like that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">When asked if she was in love, she admitted: \u201cI do love him, yeah.\u201d Katie concluded: \u201cYou only live once and if you want to do something, do it. There\u2019s no textbook to say you have to wait this long or that.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019m a hopeless romantic, but one thing I will say, I will never let a man hurt me again. So, if Lee ends up being really like what people say, I\u2019m not going to sit there and cry and be like, oh, he broke my heart. Because the stories started coming out a week after I met him, it\u2019s sort of in my brain, like, just have your antennas out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Katie also defended Lee &#8211; who was freed from prison last month, but is still facing allegations of fraud &#8211; on her podcast with her sister, Sophie. Denying that there was a sex tape to sell, she stated: &#8220;Right, can I just say something? Number one, I\u2019ve not done a sex tape with Lee. And you did tell the papers that. He has said [that we did] in a voice note, which I sent to you, but he was joking in it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Refencing his sex tape jokes, Sophie fumed: &#8220;The fact that he&#8217;s even talking about you in that context to his mates is f***ing out of order and he&#8217;s a d***head.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Katie interrupted: \u201cIt wasn\u2019t to his mates, it was to someone professional.\u201d Gobsmacked, Sophie pointed out that this made it &#8220;even worse&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">When Lee was warned that selling a sex tape without Katie\u2019s consent would be illegal, he told <a aria-label=\"\" class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/tvandshowbiz\/39989605\/katie-price-lee-andrews-sex-tape-voicemail-joke-husband\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" tabindex=\"0\" target=\"_self\">The Sun:<\/a> \u201cI was not serious on that mate, we have <a aria-label=\"\" class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/topic\/onlyfans\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" tabindex=\"0\" target=\"\">OnlyFans<\/a>, we will do our thing on this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\"><em><strong class=\"Strong_strong__e2x35\">Like this story?
