Kerry Katona splits from fiancé Ryan Maloney after six years

The former Atomic Kitten star confirmed she is single on social media after a turbulent relationship with the fitness trainer.

Underneath a post sharing a health update about her mother, one person wrote: “so much love to you both and and is the Dr single?”

Confirming her newly-single status, Kerry wrote: “No but I am!”

Earlier this year, Kerry said she felt “unsupported” by Ryan and had temporarily moved in with her mother, Sue,

At the time, she said: “I want to say a massive thank you to my mum, who has been my rock during the last couple of weeks. I’ve been staying at hers and she’s really looked after me.

If I’m honest, I’ve felt more lonely than ever during my recovery. Ryan was away getting a tattoo in London when I went into hospital and I haven’t seen him since my surgery over a week ago.

That upset me, because it made me feel unsupported and I could have done with the emotional support. I’m always the ‘strong mum’ in our house and this week I really wanted to be looked after and have him here, but I had my mum instead,” she said.”

However, had since shared loved up snaps with Ryan on social media, including the pair enjoying holidays together.

In one photo Kerry wrote: “Another date might with my man. Honestly we’ve had our ups and downs but I wouldn’t want to be without this man. I love you! I know it’s soppy but I do.”

Last week, Kerry was in Ireland where she celebrated her daughter Molly McFadden’s performance in a play.

The 44-year-old posted a glowing tribute to her eldest on Instagram where she shared a happy snap which included her third daughter Heidi (17).

Molly, who currently lives in Ireland with her sister Lilly-Sue (21) are both daughters to Kerry and her first husband, Westlife star Brian McFadden.

Kerry also has Heidi, 17, and Max, 16, from her marriage to Mark Croft.

She shares her youngest daughter, Dylan-Jorge, 10, with her late ex-husband, George Kay, who died aged 39 in 2019 following an overdose.
