Katie Price removed her wedding ring as she joined son Harvey for a photo on Thursday, shortly after slamming absent husband Lee Andrews for scrapping a planned reunion in the United Kingdom.
The former glamour model has shown the first signs of disenchantment with the Dubai based businessman by publicly expressing disappointment in his failure to leave the Emirates and join her in London for a joint interview on Good Morning Britain.
Andrews, 42, whose heavily filtered Instagram posts have attracted considerable attention, has since turned off his social media comments while he remains in Dubai, where he is understood to be serving a travel ban.
Joining eldest son Harvey for a bedtime photo on Thursday evening, Price, 47, confirmed her left hand was missing the ring she accepted from Andrews during their shotgun wedding in January.
Captioning the post, she wrote: ‘Goodnight from me and my Harvey bear.’
Price has refused to dispel claims that her marriage is in crisis and suggested she has given Andrews an ultimatum while sharing a clip from the latest instalment of her Katie Price Podcast with Instagram followers.

‘I just want him here, just to visit here and shut everyone up that he can get here,’ she said, in a clip released on Thursday.
‘So next week when we do the pod we’ll find out whether he’s come to England or not and we’ll see what he’s said.’
Price admitted she has already confronted her husband over the situation, adding: ‘It’s the fact you keep saying you’re coming and then don’t come.
‘Of course, everyone is going to flag up. Even I’ve flagged it up to him. Big time I’ve flagged it up now. I said, “Don’t do that to me again. Me having to go on live TV without you and make me look stupid and a d***”.
‘No wonder everyone’s saying, “You’re this, you’re that”, because they’ve got a reason to say it. I agree, I agree with everyone.’
Sophie was firm in her stance, telling her sister ‘I can’t even say his name, because he winds me up, I think he is a f**king d**khead on Instagram if I am honest and I think you deserve better Kate.’
Price insisted though that her husband’s no show is the only issue in their marriage, telling her sister: ‘I am not stupid, the noise I hear about he is a con artist and scam, the only thing he has done to disappoint me is not come to England when he says he is, especially when I am going on live TV and he doesn’t turn up.
‘That has disappointed me because I know he has work to do. His plan is to come to England for a long time.
‘I just want him to visit here and shut everyone up. So next week when we do the pod we will find out if he has come to England or not.’
On Tuesday, Andrews was caught in a ‘lie’ when he posted a airport video claiming he was trying to find a way to get back to the UK.
Andrews was due to travel to the UK to reunite with his wife on Monday, but failed to get on a flight, later claiming he is a ‘busy man’ and had ‘things to do’ but was still on his way

He said: ‘Hi guys. I didn’t make Good Morning Britain. I had a couple of other things going on. I am not detained, I am in the airport in Muscat, Oman.
‘I’m going to put on [a screenshot] of my police app, showing that I don’t have any travel bans because I’ve already left the UAE.’
Yet comparison images from his filming location showed that he was not in Muscat, because the ceiling design proved he’s in Dubai airport.
And he hadn’t even gone through security, because he was standing in a communal area in front of the check-in desk.
An hour later, he posted another story confirming that he was on the way to see his wife in the UK.
He said: ‘Hello everyone, yes, I’m at the airport and I’m flying to my wife, who did very well on Good Morning Britain today.

‘I’m on my way to her. I had a couple of things that I had to do last-minute, couldn’t make the show, I was hoping to get on there over the Zoom link, but they let Katie carry on, and she did fantastic.
‘So yeah, no one was detained, I don’t know where that came from. There’s obviously a lot of police around the airport, cameras, everything, definitely not a wanted man.
‘I can’t wait to get to my wife, I’m really looking forward to seeing you Katie, I love you so much, I’m on my way to you, and sorry it got delayed. I couldn’t make the show, guys, it would’ve been great.
‘But hopefully we will be on the sofa soon. Anyway, I love you all, keep it real all of you, and don’t listen to any noise.
‘I’m definitely not someone who has been detained. And I’m definitely not someone that’s wanted, there you go.’
Andrews’ travel ban means he is not allowed to leave Dubai or enter Oman.
He is thought to be banned from leaving Dubai after allegedly forging his ex-girlfriend Dina Taji’s signature to secure a £200,000 loan – something he has strongly denied.
According to Dubai law, individuals pending criminal investigations, including unpaid debts or civil lawsuits, are not legally allowed to leave the country.
