In 2023, Lee revealed he had been diagnosed with ADHD and autism. He said: "I have been diagnosed with Autism and ADHD in the past year. I’ve struggled with various things since I was a child, but these things weren’t really known about back then or spoken about.

"What it means for me is that I have a high IQ but my brain works in a different way to others. You might be very clever, highly creative – have highs and lows, but you might deal with social situations differently from others. You might react differently, particularly to sounds, sights, smells and even touch. People might think you’re being rude, difficult or chaotic.

"There is so much I’m learning about myself and a lot is starting to make sense. Anyway, thanks for listening. In a world of chaos, be kind and I’ll see you soon – thank you to all of you that have supported me."
