She’s spoken openly about surviving three destructive marriages – and now Kerry Katona tells Closer she’s hit the jackpot with fiancé Ryan Mahoney. And she says the cherry on the cake is that she’s also enjoying the best sex of her life.
Kerry has been with the personal trainer, 33, for nearly five years after meeting him on dating app Bumble.
Cheshire-based Kerry cackles, “I’m at the peak of my sex life at the minute. I’m having the best sex ever, if I’m honest. Ryan is really fit. I’ve been there, done that and declared my love for people, but the difference here is I don’t need him… I want him.
“I had my vagina steamed recently and I decided to give it a new name – Vera. I liked the idea of freshening it all up. We have steam on our faces and massages on our neck, why not have your f**ny steamed? It didn’t do anything for my mental health, but I felt a lot cleaner! It smelt lovely.”
In her new book Whole Again, Kerry admits she’s made a multi-million pound fortune from taking her clothes off to pose for racy subscription platform OnlyFans. And after Britney Spears posed for a flurry of full-frontal naked pics on a recent holiday, Kerry says they definitely need to join forces.
“Why is she not using my f**king referral code and getting herself on OnlyFans,” laughs Kerry, who is mum to Molly, 21, Lilly-Sue, 19, from her marriage to Brian MacFadden, Heidi, 15, Max, 14, from her second husband Mark Croft and Dylan-Jorge, eight, from her third marriage to the late George Kay.
“Britney, give me a call darling and I’ll guide you through it. We can do joint stuff together.
“I was nicknamed the ‘British Britney Spears’ back in the day and we have a lot in common. She needs to stop giving it away for free and we can make an absolute mint.”
The former Atomic Kitten also admits in her latest memoirs that Love Island producers have relentlessly been pursuing her daughter Lilly – who plans to study law – to appear on the show.
“Every year I tell Lilly to do Love Island so she can get some money and a bleeding flat and move out!” belly laughs Kerry, who’s had multiple boob jobs, Botox, filler, liposuction and a tummy tuck. “I look at the girls on there and you have to look a certain way. Lilly’s just not like that. She’s the scruffiest little b*stard you’ll ever come across.
“I’d love her to do it to give other teenagers like my Heidi more body confidence. It isn’t all butt cheeks and lip filler! I’m f**king 42, I’ve had five kids so I need a bit of help, but then there are all these young girls with tight skin trying to look the same. I’m thinking, ‘F**king enjoy yourselves without all the cosmetic work!’ They’re all blending into one person, you don’t know who you’re looking at.”
And after countless people have had sex on the infamous reality show, Kerry says that doesn’t faze her with Lilly.
“Lilly would never have sex on TV in a million years but even if she did, that’s up to her,” says Kerry, who’s conquered addictions to drugs and booze. “She can have sex with whoever she wants, she’s 19! Enjoy yourself, kids, sow your seed!”
The reality star caused shockwaves when she was seen with her former Westlife star ex Brian MacFadden – who now has a one-year-old daughter with his wife Danielle Parkinson – at Molly’s 21st birthday after being estranged for years.
The pair were married for just two years and split in 2004 with Brian admitting he’d cheated on Kerry with a lapdancer on his stag do.
Kerry, who describes in her new book how upsetting it is for his daughters to see him with his new family when he wasn’t around for them, says, “It was the first time I saw him in a million years and the first time ever Mollie had seen us in the same room, being nice to each other.
“His wife Danielle is so lovely, I get annoyed when people still try to suggest there’s something between us. We don’t speak and I haven’t told him anything about my upcoming wedding.
“He won’t be offended by what I’ve said about him in my new book because he’d never read it! I don’t give a f**k about Brian’s feelings. I don’t care about anyone’s feelings. It’s my book, my truth and my story!”
