Verity is an Ariana Grande impersonator who starred on the X Factor in 2009. The couple welcomed their fourth child, a 'beautiful, healthy baby girl' a year ago.
As well as his children with Verity, Lee is also dad to daughter Bluebell, 16, who he had with ex Jessica Keevil, and son Rayn, 15, whose mother is his ex-fiancée Samantha Miller.
Lee and Verity enjoyed a lavish wedding ceremony in Seville, Spain, October 2024 – two years after their secret legal ceremony in Gibraltar.
He moved to Spain four years ago to start a family with Verity and the couple said 'I do' at a register office in 2022.
After missing out on a big wedding day with their family and friends due to the pandemic restrictions, the couple celebrated their nuptials with a fairytale wedding in Seville on October 7, with all his Blue bandmates in attendance.
Describing the special day to OK! Lee admitted he cried at several points during the day, saying it 'felt like a dream'.
The couple's then-three children all played roles in the ceremony, with their daughters being flower girls, while Lee walked down the aisle carrying their newborn son to a string quartet playing Time by Hans Zimmer.
Praising his wife, he admitted he knew she was the one on their second date and that 'she saved my life', while describing the moment he saw her in her dress, said: 'It took my breath away.'

Recalling how they first met, he said: 'We first saw each other at a Christmas lights switch on when I was promoting and Verity was a performer, and we met backstage.
'A few weeks later, we went on our first date and we bonded over our love of food – sushi, on that occasion. The first time I knew she was the one was on our second date. We picked a Christmas tree and danced around my living room to John Legend.'
He added they work so well together because 'I’m a nutty Gemini and she’s a Libra who balances me out' and also praised her for having 'a lot of patience'.
He went on: 'We are both creative and we write songs together and share a love of music and performing. Verity understands my life, and that I have to go and work for us to have this life together. But I love coming home. She saved my life. My wife saved my life, I know that for sure.'
The couple moved to a beachfront apartment in the Costa del Sol in 2020 with the duo admitting that they now have a 'better quality of life' and 'new lease of life'.
Lee admitted that after 20 years of living in London he now loves scenic walks along the coastline and 'sea air'.
