Michelle Heaton on Kerry Katona as she reunites with husband George Kay
Michelle has been spending time with the Atomic Kitten singer in both Australia and Somerset
MICHELLE Heaton has admitted she's noticed a definite change in Atomic Kitten singer Kerry Katona, telling The Sun Online: "She's in a really happy place."
The mother-of-five has recently reunited with her husband George Kay after their sensational split last year - and she simply can't stop smiling.
Michelle recently stood in for Liz McClarnon at an Atomic Kitten gig in Australia, before taking her two children - Faith, four, and two-year-old AJ - for a break in Somerset with Kerry's brood.
Michelle, 37, said: "I just spent three, four days with her in Somerset.
"We all went away together on holiday and had the best time - she’s in a really happy place."

Michelle added in the often troubled star's defence: "The kids are amazing. She’s a great mum and I think for Kerry, people only remember what they want to remember from her, but the main thing about Kerry is that she’s a great mum - and she wants to provide for her family.
"I'm in awe of a mum juggling five kids."
Michelle is now looking forward to spending even more time with the 36-year-old, as Atomic Kitten are returning to Australia in February for a month-long tour.
"I'm going to love it - it's going to be great," she gushed.
