The pair have faced their fair share of criticism since they began their relationship, especially considering Tim's son is just two years older than Gee.
Trolls have even accused Gee of being a "gold digger", and called Tim her "sugar daddy" - among the hoards of cruel remarks she receives on a daily basis from Internet haters.
"I've received so many hate comments since I started posting about him on " Gee sighed to Fabulous Online.
"They're extremely rude and horrible - saying I'm with him for the money.

"Very hurtful".
She added that Tim's "flamboyant and cheerful" style and personality has led to some people questioning his sexuality, while others have taken aim at his 'Turkey Teeth veneers'.
Gee - who divorced her husband last year after eight years of marriage - and Tim first met in July, after she spotted his "nice McLaren" in the car park at their local David Lloyds gym in Bristol.
"I told my friend I have to know who the owner is as McLaren is my dream car," she recalled.
