The 29-year-old is understood to have targeted love rival Jyssica Memory, after discovering she was having an affair with her boyfriend, Anthony Kelly.
Anthony, who had been with Katie for four years, allegedly sparked a secret relationship with Jyssica and promised her a life of luxury in Thailand.
The victim was waiting outside a friends house with her bags packs when she claimed to be "ambushed" by her lover and Katie, as reported by the Northamptonshire Telegraph.
Northampton Crown Court heard the former Love Island contestant kicked and punched Jyssica around 10 times.
Katie, a born-again Christian and OnlyFans creator, is also understood to have used a hairdryer and stiletto heeled show in the onslaught.
"Did you really think you were going to Thailand with my husband?" she was heard shouting.
Kelly repeatedly added "f***ing little b***h", the court heard.
A witness told how a terrified Jyssica was left on the floor curled up in the fetal position.
The 29-year-old was hauled before a judge on July 11, where the jury were also shown shocking video footage.
Jyssica's suitcase was emptied out on the street, with her clothes and underwear thrown around in a humiliating display.
Love Island fans demand 'get her out' as they slam girl as 'liar' after she's confronted in tense scenes
She had clumps of hair ripped from her head, and two black eyes after the horrific assault.
Prosecuting, Quiana Fitzpatrick said: 'This was a planned ambush. They decided they would be speaking to her face to face.
"It was planned because Harry [Kelly] lied to get the victim to the scene."
But Salmon, whose real name is Katie Humphreys, argued she was the victim and "frightened for her life".
She had gone to Northampton General Hospital for a split lip, where she required seven stiches.
Her current boyfriend, Joe Rossi, supported her at court but had to be removed for causing disruption when he saw the photographs of Humphreys injury.
She claimed it was Jyssica who hit her with a hairdryer, and gave her concussion.
The mum-of-one told the court Kelly had egged her on to continue fighting.
Kelly, who shared a daughter with Humphreys, has since died of suicide in Thailand.
The couple, who got engaged in 2021, had been living out there.
They moved back to the UK for the birth of their child in 2022, but were planning to return to Thailand before Kelly's death.
Defending, Rachel Oakdene, said there were "conflicting accounts" of what happened.
She argued: 'This incident was orchestrated by Harry [Kelly].
"Without wanting to speak ill of the dead, he appears to have been playing both of them like fiddles.'
SECRET RELATIONSHIP
The court heard how Kelly had also been dating Jyssica for four years.
She had been sending Humphrey's videos from her Only Fans page, which showed the pair together.
Kelly and his partner threatened Jyssica with legal action to remove the content from her platform.
Humphreys said she was going to "set the record straight" with Jyssica on the night of the attack.
Jyssica was told to pack her bags for Thailand and tell Kelly when she was ready to go.
But instead she was confronted by Kelly, Humphreys, and a second man named Jimmy.
The victim claimed she wasn't aware Kelly and Humphreys were back together.
She claimed her on-and-off partner shouted "just kill her, I wish this b***h would die".
In another moment he was recorded saying "I'm going to kill you. F***ing b***h. F***ing tramp. You're dead".
After the shocking assault, during which witnesses told the court Jyssica made no attempt to fight back, the trio fled.
But police arrested them later that evening.
Humphreys was found guilty of assault on a person causing them actual bodily harm.
She will be sentenced on September 15.

Billie Eilish surprises fans by teaming up with Oscar-winning director for upcoming 3D tour movie
Billie Eilish revealed she is teaming up with James Cameron for her upcoming 3D tour movie. The 23-year-old singer shared the exciting news of her collaboration with the Oscar-winning director during her sold-out show in Manchester over the weekend. At her concert on Saturday, she revealed to her audience that she was working on the 3D movie with the Avatar filmmaker, 70, to bring her concert experience to more of her fans. 'So you may have noticed that there are more cameras than usual in here,' she said in between songs at her show, per The Hollywood Reporter. 'Basically, I can't say much about it, but what I can say is that I'm working on something very, very special with somebody named James Cameron, and it's going to be in 3D,' she continued. Her announcement comes shortly after she enforced a completely vegan food policy at her London concerts — with her ' woke decision' leaving attendees feeling 'less than impressed.' 'So, take that as you will, and these four shows here in Manchester, you and me are part of a thing that I am making with him,' the Birds of a Feather hitmaker added. 'He's in this audience somewhere, just saying. So don't mind that, and also I'll probably be wearing this exact outfit for, like, four days in a row.' Cameron is renowned for directing big budget and large scale films such as Aliens, Titanic, Avatar and The Terminator. His films have grossed over $8 billion worldwide, making him the second highest-grossing director in film history. Eilish previously made one documentary — Billie Eilish: The World's a Little Blurry in 2021 — as well as another concert movie that same year — Happier Than Ever: A Love Letter to Los Angeles. She is currently on tour in support of her third studio album, Hit Me Hard and Soft. At one of her recent shows in London, she sparked mixed reactions from her fans when she enforced a completely vegan food policy for her show held at the O2 Arena, making it the venue's first-ever fully plant-based event. The singer is performing at the venue for six nights during her Hit Me Hard And Soft Tour. And every food vendor has been required to offer 100 percent plant-based options, removing all animal products from the arena for the evening. The menu included a peri-peri haloumi wrap, a corn naan, chipotle tacos, pizzas, and pancakes. While some of Eilish vegan fans praised her decision, others were left disappointed with the food options after paying upwards of £70 for their tickets. One attendee told MailOnline: 'Punters were less than impressed with the vegan options — a mixture of pizzas, cauliflower bits and loaded fries — with more than one asking, "Did they run out of meat or something?" Before the show started, Eilish narrated a short film about veganism, the environment, and all of the steps they have taken on the tour to do their bit. The crew all eat plant-based food on tour, while her merch is made using sustainable practices. They also had an Eco Village at the O2 arena to raise awareness of climate change. She's not the only star to take action — as Paul McCartney famously refuses to perform at venues that don't offer vegetarian options. Despite not all fans being impressed with the food choices, her performance made up for it as the award-winning artist belted out hits including Ocean Eyes, No Time To Die, and What Was I Made For? She was raised as a vegetarian and has been a consistent advocate for animal rights and veganism, frequently discussing her beliefs when it comes to animals.

Memphis guard Sincere Parker was arrested Saturday on an aggravated assault charge for an attack on his girlfriend. The woman told police that he choked her and hit her, according to court documents. She also told police that the attack occurred on May 27 at the Memphis apartment the couple shared. She reported that Parker pushed her, slapped her in the face and choked her, leaving her bruised and bloodied, according to a police report. The woman also told police that Parker broke her cellphone because he didn't want her to have the digital key to the apartment. A warrant for Parker's arrest was issued Friday and the 22-year-old was booked into Shelby County Jail in Tennessee on Saturday. An arraignment was scheduled for Monday on charges of felony aggravated assault and misdemeanor vandalism. It was not immediately clear whether Parker had an attorney.

How e-bike riders are doing double the speed limit - and many of them work for fast food delivery firms
It's lunchtime on Birmingham's New Street. Close to its many restaurants, food delivery riders are congregating on their bikes. The area is packed with shoppers and workers. PC Paige Gartlan is approaching with other officers. She's on the lookout for illegally modified e-bikes - and she knows she'll find them here. "You can physically tell by looking at the bike that it's generally going to be illegal - the battery pack is taped on to the sides and generally the size of the motor that's on the back wheel," she explains. Sky News has been invited on an operation by West Midlands Police to find these bikes and get them off the streets. PC Gartlan has been hit by one before. She's had to tackle a rider to the floor after he drove into her. Within minutes, she's spotted a suspicious-looking bike. The rider makes a run for it - followed by plain-clothed officers. PC Gartlan tests the bike - it's showing a top speed of 52km/hr on the speedometer - just over 30mph. The speed limit for e-bikes in the UK is 15.5mph when using electric power for assistance. I look up the street and another two riders have been detained. In less than an hour, officers have confiscated four bikes - all were being ridden by fast food delivery drivers. The commotion is attracting a lot of attention. "They are dangerous," Sandra, who has just finished work, tells me. She's stood watching the riders being questioned. She says she's had near-misses herself and is worried for the safety of the elderly and children. It's not just West Midlands police officers here - immigration officials are carrying out checks too. They're involved in a nationwide operation, which has seen more than 7,000 arrests in the last year - a 50% increase on last year. Matthew Foster, the immigration enforcement lead officer for the West Midlands, tells me they've already found one individual who has entered the UK unlawfully. "He's been detained," he says, "to affect his removal from the UK." Further down the street, police are loading illegally modified bikes on to a van - they're destined to be crushed. One of them had belonged to Demoz. He's on his way home, carrying a big box with the logo of one of the main fast food delivery firms on it. He tells me he used to have an illegal bike, but he thought his new one was legal. "I make a mistake, I have to say sorry, I will do better for the future," he says. I get in touch with the big delivery firms; Deliveroo, Uber Eats, and Just Eat. Their representatives say they constantly remind workers of their safety obligations, and that they're all working closely with the government to increase security checks on riders. As he leaves, Demoz, now bike-free, tells me he's thinking of changing his job.
