Miss Lee previously told the court Mr Harris had assaulted her at the start of her group's six-week visit to the UK.
'Blood money'
She told the court on Wednesday: "There is no doubt in my mind what occurred to me.
"Both assaults are very clear in my mind. I got the dates wrong, I admit to that."
Miss Lee also dismissed prosecution claims that she had made up the story because she was motivated by money.
The court was told she had made a £33,000-deal with a Sydney publicity agent to give interviews to an Australian TV station and a magazine.
The jurors were also shown a newspaper article in which Miss Lee complained that not all of the money due to her had been paid.
She added: "That was blood money. That's not money for frivolity or fun."
Thursday's second witness, a former partner of Mr Harris's daughter, said he was told by one of the complainants that the entertainer had an under-age sexual relationship with her.
Malcolm Cox said the woman, a friend of Bindi Harris, was visiting the Harris family home in Bray, Berkshire, in 1996 or 1997 when she told him there had been a sexual relationship between Mr Harris and her, and it had occurred before the age of 16.
He said: "The gist was, in my opinion, that someone had been abused."
