Kerry Katona’s dreams of living in the sun in tatters as she abandons plans to quit the UK

! column this week: "We've been thinking about moving to London or Spain, but we've decided to stay in Cheshire."

"DJ is happy at school and doesn't want to move, which is important because I want her to have stability," she wrote: "Kids need that. And Max is starting college in September, which is exciting.

"I do have to travel to London for work, but I don't mind the journey if it means keeping things stable."

In October, after time away in Marbella, Kerry had excitedly shared about her dream 'big move'.

Posting a video of herself in a summery maxi dress from her own boutique, Kerry said: "I'm in such a happy... I can't wait to move out here. I cannot wait!"

Again, writing in OK!, she said that she was fed up of travelling from her home in Cheshire to meetings in London.

";You can hop on a plane and be in Marbella in less time. So, that’s our plan. It’s exciting," she said.

Kerry is mum to daughters Molly, 22, and Lilly-Sue, 21, who she shares with her ex-husband Brian McFadden.

She gave birth to daughter Heidi, 16, and 15-year-old son Maxwell during her marriage to Mark Croft.

Kerry's youngest child is daughter Dylan-Jorge, who is nine years old. She had her during her relationship with the late George Kay.

She's now engaged to Ryan Mahoney.
