The former glamour model, 47, shocked fans last month when she revealed she had tied the knot for the fourth time to the so-called businessman in Dubai.
But her new marriage has sparked concern from loved ones, as Lee's facade has since crumbled, with accusations of using AI, appearing on an escort site and having a colourful history with women.
Several of his ex-partners have made a slew of bombshell accusations against him, and issue public warnings to Katie, urging her to 'run for the hills'.
However, the mother-of-five continued to defend her husband on Sunday, as she addressed the romance for the first time in her latest YouTube video, stating she was 'not a young kid' and 'will do what I want to do'.
While packing her bags ready to go visit Lee in Dubai for the weekend, she began: 'I'm going back to Dubai, obviously going back to see Lee. I've made no comments about anything, I don't feel I need to make comments about anything.

'I'm fully aware like everyone else, I see stuff, I get sent stuff. What I want everyone to know is, I'm a grown a**e woman.
'I'm 48 this year, I'm not a young kid. I've learned a lot in the past few years, through therapy and learning to love myself. So I'm not stupid, I know what I'm doing and if I'm happy that's all that matters.'

Katie continued to double down, insisting: 'At the end of the day, no one knows what I know. It's only been speculated by the press.
'I am very happy and that's all that matters. That happy that I'm going back to Dubai for the weekend. So I can't wait.'
While she then addressed her fans who had been sharing their concerns for her, reiterating: 'If there's anything to update you on, I would always update you all. But I just want people to not worry.
'I'm not worried, so you don't need to worry about anything. Like I say, I will do what I want to do.
'But I want everyone to know you don't need to worry, I'm really happy, there's nothing to worry about. That's all I need to address on that.'

She reposted a quote to her 2.7million followers, which read: 'I promise, if you saw the way he treats me in private, you'd understand why I'm wildly addicted to him.'
In another story, she reposted: 'Sorry to anyone who thought they were next, he's not going anywhereee that's my husband byeee.'
Lee's ex, Alana Percival, who he proposed to in exactly the same way that he did to Katie, just weeks earlier, has made a series of explosive allegations against him, including alluding to him advertising on the escort site.
She urged Katie to 'run for the hills', claiming she has 'proof' of Lee's shady dealings
While Daily Mail previously revealed that Lee has been banned from leaving Dubai after spending three weeks locked up in a UAE jail for allegedly forging his ex-girlfriend's signature.

Insiders told the Mail that Lee allegedly applied for a £200,000 mortgage on behalf of personal trainer partner Dina Taji without her knowledge last year.
Dina found out after receiving a phone call from the mortgage company, sparking her decision to file a legal case against him.
According to Dubai law, individuals pending criminal investigations, including unpaid debts or civil lawsuits, are not legally allowed to leave the country. The woman reported Lee to the authorities in Dubai, who investigated her claim.

It was claimed Lee spent three weeks locked up in a Dubai jail for allegedly forging his ex-girlfriend Dina Taji's signature to take out a £200,000 loan in her name and has been banned from leaving the United Arab Emirates
However, Lee denied he was banned from leaving Dubai and on Tuesday claimed he and his wife are going on a honeymoon in a few days.
In a video, he posted a screenshot from the MOI UAE App, which has features such as paying traffic fines, renewing driver's licences and criminal status checks.
Lee had the screen on the 'travel bans' option, which read: 'No travel bans.'
He said: 'There's no travel ban, directly from the police UAE application, and it's my profile, so you can check those statuses, fines related to traffic, and also if you're allowed to travel, so allow me to share that. It's not fabricated.

'I'm going on my honeymoon in a few days guys, so definitely not on a travel ban. I'm in the happiest moment of my life so I'm forward to going with my person, my human, on my honeymoon.'
He added: 'It is exclusive, so I can't talk about it. I know I'm probably the most hated man in Britain, but half this stuff is not even true.'
Meanwhile, another of his exes, Crystal Janke, has claimed Lee hoodwinked her into handing over £123,000 to invest in his company, on the promise he could get a 'return of £1million'.
Last week, the Daily Mail learned that Lee advertises online in Dubai as a 'sexy educated professional from GB', charging a minimum of £940 per hour to visit 'discerning professional women and high-level clients seeking more than just companionship'.
Meanwhile, Katie's family are said to be 'concerned' about her relationship with Lee, but she 'isn't listening' to them

The 43-year-old's profile on the site 'Massage Republic', where he goes by the name 'Noah', reads: 'With a commanding presence and an effortless charm, I navigate the social elite with grace, ensuring that every encounter is tailored to your desires.
'My polished demeanor, combined with an attentive nature, creates a safe haven where ambition meets intimacy.
'Whether it's an elegant dinner overlooking the skyline or a private escape in a lavish hotel suite, I provide an experience that transcends the ordinary, igniting passion and connection in an atmosphere of sophistication and discretion.'
Lee denied that the profile was his in a series of rambling voice notes sent to the Daily Mail, insisting it was a 'vicious attack' and had nothing to do with him.
Meanwhile, Katie's family are said to be 'concerned' about her relationship with Lee, but she 'isn't listening' to them.

A source told The Sun: 'They do not want her to go back to Dubai but she has confirmed that she is leaving today.
'Katie doesn't want to be away from Lee over Valentine's Day and said they are planning a honeymoon. Her family have read reports about Lee and are so concerned about Katie's welfare.'
