Kerry has outdone herself in toning up, and appeared on Loose Women to reveal she's happy being single AND to show off her brand new brunette locks. Love it!
Appearing on Loose Women today, the mum-of-five said: "This is the best headspace I’ve been in for a long, long, long time.
"Being single is definitely the way forward. I’m definitely in a relationship with myself and learning to love me... I’ve never done that before."
Kerry admitted that she "always ends up in bad relationship", but added she's an "old romantic" and still believes in love, marriage - and a happy ever after.
But Kerry, 37, confessed she knew it was time to focus on herself, saying: "For now I think it’s time to concentrate on me, my needs, my children. I’m in a really good headspace. I feel good, I feel sexy, I feel empowered."
Go on, girl!
But Kerry could admit with hindsight that the celebrity culture had not been good for her love life: "I don’t think I have had a good relationship. All of my relationships have been documented since the age of 17.
"I do need to be on my own and I’m really happy on my own."
Stepping out on the show in a bikini, Kerry revealed that she'd lost two stone in the last few months, taking up yoga and cross-training to stay in shape.
But she added: "More than anything it’s my kids," before revealing that her newfound love for exercise has helped her come off her medication for bipolar.

After seeking advice from her doctor, Kerry proudly said: "I’ve been off medication now for about eight months. A lot of mental health illness, it’s knowing what your triggers are and what tools to use when you do get triggered.
"Don’t get me wrong, I still have my down days, I still get a bit down like we all do. Because I’m going through a divorce as well, I’d rather face these obstacles head on rather than masking them with pills."
We salute you, Kerry. ❤️
