Kerry Katona Announces Split from Fiancé Ryan Mahoney
"Kerry hates seeing them upset, it makes her sick to her stomach so she is doing everything in her power to make sure she is constantly checking up on them.
"It’s been really hard explaining to them all why she and Ryan have separated, but she is trying to be strong for them and is putting her own heartache to one side to ensure the kids are supported.
"They are her top priority in all of this.”
Writing in her when the news broke, Kerry said: "Last week I spoke about how Ryan and I were having a tough time and now he has moved out of the house.
"We are no longer together and It’s been a really tough week - I never in a million years thought this would happen. Without going into too much detail, there has been a breach of trust between us."
Kerry Katona's bankruptcy battles
Kerry first declared bankruptcy in August 2008, primarily due to an unpaid tax bill of £417,000.
At the time, she was reportedly struggling with personal issues, including substance abuse, which compounded her financial woes.
In July 2013, Katona declared bankruptcy for the second time. This happened while she was living in a rented property in Surrey.
The second bankruptcy was attributed to continued financial mismanagement and a series of unfortunate business ventures. Her struggles were exacerbated by her high-profile lifestyle and the financial strain of maintaining it.
In the years following her second bankruptcy, Kerry has made various attempts to regain financial stability, including participating in reality TV shows and other media projects.
PALS DOING PANTO
Katie and Kerry met during I'm a Celebrity in 2004, with them now excited to reunite for a pantomime this Christmas.
The pair have secured fitting salaries for less than a month's work, with an insider previously telling us, "Katie and Kerry have secured themselves really good deals to do panto this year.
