Katie Price’s husband Lee Andrews calls for Susanna Reid to be sacked over comment about him
Susanna Reid should be given her marching orders from Good Morning Britain, according to Katie Price's husband Lee Andrews.
The elusive businessman, who has finally been reunited with his wife after being AWOL for weeks, isn't happy with the TV presenter after her comments on Wednesday's (17 June) show.
Reid hasn't been shy about sharing her thoughts on the bizarre saga surrounding Andrews' supposed disappearance - and now, he reckons she deserves the axe.
Good Morning Britain unwittingly found itself at the centre of the scandal surrounding Price and her spouse after he 'went missing' back in May.

Andrews was supposed to appear on the ITV show alongside the former glamour model, but didn't show up - and a few of days later, the mother-of-five then raised the alarm.
After Price was unable to get hold of him for several days, the situation then snowballed rapidly.
Andrews was reported as a missing person, his loved ones were sharing heartfelt appeals and social media sleuths were digging into his baffling background.
Between claims he'd been kidnapped, strange activity on his online accounts and the rumour mill running rampant, it's safe to say our nerves were shattered.
Andrews then finally turned up and has now shared some details about what he's been up to - such as allegedly being 'captured by men at gunpoint' before being held by officials after being 'suspected of espionage'.
He was released from Dubai’s Al Awir prison on Friday (12 June) and insisted that he was not detained due to fraud charges, despite reports claiming otherwise.
His dedicated wife Price flew out to the UAE city to reunite with Andrews after several long and stressful weeks of hunting for him.
Now Andrews is 'safe, healthy and with his wife' - and gunning for Good Morning Britain host Reid.
On Wednesday, entertainment reporter Richard Arnold gave viewers a rundown about the latest updates on Andrews.
After he wrapped up, Reid then said: "I think my eyes just rolled out of my head," making it clear that she doesn't completely buy the businessman's story.
Andrews has since taken to Instagram to share his thoughts on the 55-year-old's remarks about him...and he believes she should get the sack for what she has said.
He told his 149,000 followers: "What is Susanna Reid rolling her eyes at?
"I’m not gonna comment on that, because obviously I’ll get onto the sofa with Katie at some point and we’ll thrash it out, and she can be as forthcoming as she likes."
Andrews suggested that Reid has 'prejudged' him and went on to say: "To actually judge me without any evidence, calling me a conman...she should lose her job for that."
In the same video, he described the Al Awir prison as the 'worst, most horrific place' that he has ever seen.
Since his release, reports have emerged claiming that Andrews put on a 'wheeler-dealer bravado' while behind bars - while it has also been claimed that he 'bragged' Price was going to give him cash.
Who else is looking forward to seeing the couple finally sit down with Reid on the GMB couch then?
