Depends on what you mean by "Care"
Will she get jealous like any human woman?
Obviously not. The fae do not practice monogamy.
Will she forbid it, on the grounds that she is married to Harry in a sense?
I am strongly convinced the answer is also negative. Marriage in Mab's terms is likely something very different than what your average mortals perceive.
Will she just let Harry do as he wish in this matter and not interfere at all?
Of course not. Mab is going to use anything and everything to get a leverage on Harry, and Harry's lover will be included into her calculations even if she cannot influence Murphy directly due to Murphy being an unfiliated vanilla, she'll get her claws into Murphy somehow should Murphy decide to become the wife of the winter knight, or at least she'll try to do so if that would serve her purpose. In this sense, Mab certainly care about Harry's love life.
In short, Mab will only care if she deems it nescesary, and since she is a fae, she'll be as mysterious as ever.

Which is basically a footnote in this situation. It's charitable to call it even a Political Marriage.
There is only two ways that Mab would care:
1) If they decide to get Hitched and that bond somehow superceed's her ties to her own Knight.
2) If she decides that Murphy is an appropriate lever to manipulate Harry.
Which- I mean, 2 is 100% going to happen at some point, because Mab is an evil, manipulative bitch, but that was gonna show up at some point regardless of Harry's relationship with her.

She'd only care if it affects his work...

I don't say this often so take note:
I agree with Mira on this. Mab is very objective focused. She probably doesn't give much of a damn for silly mortal ceremonies so long as it's clear to Harry who he answers to and he does his job.

If Karen is just a concubine sure but what happens if Harry and Karen decide to marry with full ceremony and so on, that sort of thing can get complicated.
