Kerry Katona: Whole Again

As one of the most recognisable faces in showbiz today, Kerry Katona has seen more than her fair share of ups and downs played out in public. Once labelled ‘the nation’s sweetheart,’ the Atomic Kitten singer rose from foster care to international stardom but her fall from grace in a haze of drink and drugs was just as dramatic, as she saw her picture-perfect marriage crumble and her career slump. 


Yet despite all that, it is in the last decade that Kerry has faced up to her biggest personal challenges. Her marriage to third husband George Kay was to test her to the absolute limit. Stuck in an abusive relationship she felt powerless to leave, the cycle of despair was only ended when George died aged just 39 in 2019, found in a hotel room eating a sock filled with cocaine. 


This is a harrowing, brutally honest life story yet, at its heart, ultimately an uplifting tale of hope, strength and survival. With the support of her now-fiancé Ryan and her children, Kerry has had to show sheer grit and determination to get her life and career back on track despite the darkest of circumstances. After years of desperately trying to find her way, she has finally started to feel – in the words of her most famous song – Whole Again.
