The 41-year-old businessman insisted he had quietly been “back and forth” between Dubai and Britain in recent months, telling associates that he had already met Katie’s eldest children, Harvey, Junior, and Princess in person.
In a voice note discussing his private life, Lee said people didn’t realise he had met Harvey and two of the children, adding that he had not yet seen the younger ones. He went on to claim he keeps his movements deliberately secret, saying he doesn’t tell anyone and prefers to let people believe what they want.
However, those claims were quickly shut down.
A representative for Katie firmly denied the story, stating it was not true. Sources close to Junior and Princess also confirmed that neither of them has ever met Lee face-to-face.
The confusion comes amid ongoing speculation about Lee’s ability to travel. Although he has publicly denied being restricted, Katie herself appeared to acknowledge the situation during a recent podcast with her sister Sophie, referencing “Lee’s travel ban” and explaining that such bans in Dubai can arise over relatively minor issues, including unpaid bills or parking fines.
Despite this, Lee continues to present a very different version of events.
He previously revealed plans to move to the UK on May 1, saying he intends to live with Katie for a few months before returning to Dubai. He has also made a series of eye-catching claims about his wealth and business dealings, including a proposed £2 billion bid to buy a majority stake in Chelsea Football Club.
In addition, Lee has described complex financial connections involving international institutions and previously shared videos of large amounts of cash he claims belong to him.
The latest controversy follows another headline-grabbing moment, when Lee referred to Harvey as “my son” while publicly defending him against a comedian who had mocked the 23-year-old, who lives with Prader-Willi Syndrome.
While Lee continues to make bold statements about his life, those closest to Katie appear increasingly keen to distance themselves from his claims — leaving fans questioning what is really going on behind the scenes.
