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.

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.

Married At First Sight star reveals heartbreaking family tragedy: 'I've pushed it down, deep inside'

Married At First Sight's Elizabeth 'Lizzie' Sobinoff has opened up about a family tragedy. The 34-year-old mother-of-two took to social media on Monday to reveal that she suffered a miscarriage. In a heartbreaking post, Lizzie, who appeared on MAFS in 2019 and 2020, said she lost her baby between her first and second child. 'Saying goodbye to a chapter of life that had its ups and downs,' Lizzie captioned her Instagram post. 'It is bittersweet to say goodbye to that chapter of my life. I have my two babies and it is the most beautiful feeling in the world.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. In her post she detailed the circumstances of her terrible loss. 'My babies are 17 months apart,' she began. 'I had a miscarriage between my two pregnancies. I lost a baby. The baby had a strong heartbeat after my first scan... 'Less than 48hrs later I was experiencing a threatened miscarriage. The scan was on a Wednesday and by that Sunday I lost the baby.' Lizzie also shared how she was 'focused' on falling pregnant after her first baby was born and felt there was something 'missing'. 'I couldn't past this,' she confessed, adding, 'Losing the baby, I thought I need to give myself a rest. Around a week and a half later I fell pregnant with my son.' Elsewhere in the post she discussed the impact of her loss. 'I just lost a baby that I wanted so badly,' she said. 'Then I fell pregnant, and I was told this. I hadn't dealt with my emotions. I pushed it down, deep inside. I remember getting the phone call that I was pregnant. My girlfriend was with me and I cried with happiness.' She concluded her post, 'The last few years I've been pregnant. Now I find I'm on the journey of enjoying my children and finding my new identity, other than being pregnant. It is bittersweet. Lizzie was dubbed 'Australia's Most Confident Bride' in season six when she was disastrously paired with groom Sam Ball. The former reality TV star is now happily married to her engineer husband Alex Vega, and is mum to an 18-month-old baby girl and a newborn baby boy who was born in April.

Beloved ITV detective show slapped with 'trigger warning' for crime scenes in 'woke' move

ITV 's Inspector Morse has been slapped with a 'trigger warning' in a move that has been branded ' woke '. The popular series now features a pre-warning for crime scenes throughout the show, which seems to have caused a stir with people online. The streaming giant also advises there are 'satanic images' in one episode of the drama. It then has a parental lock on the episode, titled Day of the Devil. Inspector Morse first aired from 1987 to 2000, with a total of eight series. Other episodes also feature a warning over crime and violence. The popular series now features a pre-warning for crime scenes throughout the show, which seems to have caused a stir with people online Speaking about the update, Senior MP Sir Alec Shelbrooke slammed: 'This is another example of soft-touch Britain seeping into everything. 'We're just going to be laughed at as a country if things like this continue, because nobody's prepared for the real world where there are no.' Daily Mail has contacted ITV for comment. In the past, it has said about general alerts: 'Programming that contains politically sensitive or distressing themes, content, or language has carried appropriate warnings since our launch.' Just a few weeks ago, Netflix bosses axed an iconic moment from Pride and Prejudice to avoid 'objectifying men'. The unforgettable scene of Mr Darcy - played by Colin Firth - emerging from a lake was all the rage in 1995. But show bosses have confirmed it will not resurface in the forthcoming version of the rom-com. According to reports, many fans will be disappointed as the famous BBC scene is said to have 'got millions of women hot under the collar'. A source told The Sun: 'It is also credited for sparking subsequent moments of male objectification on screen - likes Aidan Turner's famous topless scything scene in Poldark.' It's claimed that Netflix bosses 'don't want a repeat'. The saucy scene soon became one of the most favourite TV scenes, however it didn't actually feature in Jane Austen's original 1813 story. Arguably the most iconic wet shirt ever worn sold at auction for £25,000 - double its estimated sale price.
