SHOCK REVEAL: ENGAGED AGAIN?! 💍 THE 9TH PROPOSAL SCANDAL & THE “SECRET MAN” EXPOSED!

Katie Price has announced yet another whirlwind engagement — her ninth — after entrepreneur Lee Andrews got down on one knee during a luxury break in Dubai, presenting the embattled star with a huge diamond ring.

The dramatic news emerged just one week after her split from Married At First Sight UK star JJ Slater, leaving fans — and her ex — blindsided by the speed of events.

The former glamour model, 46, who was declared bankrupt in 2024, flew to Dubai on Wednesday amid ongoing financial and health concerns. But the holiday quickly turned into something far more headline-grabbing.

By Friday, Katie revealed she had been proposed to — once again — sharing a string of romantic Instagram snaps that confirmed her engagement for the ninth time.

“Will You Marry Me?” — A Proposal Straight Out of a Movie

In the photos, Katie posed beside a sea of red roses spelling out “Will you marry me?”, proudly flashing her oversized diamond ring. Another snap showed her fiancé’s hand, freshly inked with a tattoo of her name, as the couple celebrated with champagne, strawberries and chocolate cake.

The proposal appeared to mark a bold new chapter — one that arrived suddenly and publicly.

 A Shock to JJ Slater

The engagement is said to have come as a complete shock to Katie’s former boyfriend JJ Slater, 32, who is currently in Miami and reportedly “healing his broken heart.”

Just last week, the Daily Mail revealed that Katie had ended her relationship with the MAFS UK star after deciding she didn’t see a future with him. Insiders claimed the cracks in their romance had become “too obvious to ignore,” despite Katie previously insisting they were going strong.

The pair began dating in February 2024 following JJ’s rise to fame on E4’s MAFS UK, and Katie had even spoken openly about the possibility of having another child together — her sixth. Ultimately, however, the relationship came to an abrupt end.

 A Telling Coincidence?

Katie announced her engagement on the same day her ex-husband Peter Andre released his new single, Rock You Right — a timing that did not go unnoticed by fans.

Katie has previously been engaged eight times and has had three husbands — Peter Andre, Alex Reid and Kieran Hayler. She also accepted proposals from Warren Furman (1996), Scott Sullivan (2004), Leandro Penna (2012), Kris Boyson (2018) and Carl Woods (2021), though none led to marriage.

She recently hinted at manifesting love once more, captioning a snap of the Burj Al Arab with a ring emoji and writing: “Manifesting does work.”

 Cryptic Clues Before the Reveal

Days before confirming her engagement, Katie shared a series of cryptic quotes on Instagram about soulmates and “the right person.”

One poem read:
“They say falling in love takes time. But it’s not true. Falling in love only takes the right person — the one who knows exactly what you need without having to ask.”

Another spoke of recognising a soulmate through divine signs, while a third quoted her mother saying:
“When you meet the male version of yourself, you’ve met the love of your life.”

 Health Concerns Continue

The engagement news arrives as Katie continues to battle ongoing health issues, including unexplained weight loss that has alarmed fans.

Last week, supporters urged her to seek help after she appeared “worryingly thin” during a shopping trip with daughter Princess Andre, 18.

On her podcast The Katie Price Show, Katie admitted she is undergoing blood tests and medical investigations to determine the cause of her weight loss.

“I know I look gaunt. I know I look ill — that’s why I’m going to the doctors,” she said, adding that doctors were concerned about her low blood pressure and rapid weight loss.

Katie also revealed she recently had facial filler after feeling self-conscious about her appearance, despite insisting she eats well and wants to gain weight.

In October, she disclosed that she had previously been hospitalised due to her shrinking frame, saying doctors were baffled and more tests were required.

 Another New Chapter — Or Another Question Mark?

As Katie steps into yet another engagement amid financial strain, health worries and a freshly ended romance, fans are left asking the same question once again:

Is this finally the fairytale ending — or just another whirlwind chapter in Katie Price’s unpredictable love life?
