Kerry Katona dealt another blow as she loses huge TV deal amid Ryan Mahoney split
Former Atomic Kitten star Kerry Katona has been dealt another blow following her split from fiancé Ryan Mahoney as she loses out on a huge reality show deal
by Mia O'Hare · The MirrorKerry Katona has reportedly lost a huge TV deal following her split from fiance Ryan Mahoney.
The former Atomic Kitten star, 44, had been engaged to Ryan, 36, since 2021 but the couple have had a rocky romance in recent years. They had been due to tie the knot in Las Vegas, yet have made the devastating decision to cancel their plans. Mum-of-five Kerry has revealed they have now split for good after making a series of brutal comments in recent months.
She admitted they were arguing 'like cat and dog' and confessed she had given Ryan a 'free pass' to have a baby with someone else. Kerry had also shared doubts over whether she even wanted to get married anymore. It has since been claimed Kerry has also lost out on a TV deal since the split.
Kerry was believed to be in talks to have her own reality show documenting the lead up to her big day with Ryan. It would have showed their relationship, wedding planning and the big day itself. "There wasn’t a channel attached yet but Kerry had done a deal with a big production company and was really excited," a source told the Sun.
"Sadly, now the marriage is off, there is no TV show. It’s a blow for Kerry but right now, she has enough on her plate dealing with her heartbreak and her mum in hospital." Announcing their split in a bizarre exchange with fans, Kerry posted an update on her mum Sue where she disclosed her relationship status.
Sue was rushed to A&E last month with blood clots found in her lungs. After sharing an update about seeing her mum on the ward one fan replied to the star: "So much love to you both, and is the Dr single?" Kerry cheekily typed back to the fan: "No, but I am!" Speaking honestly in her last column, Kerry: "I’ve not had the best time this week, it has been tough.
"Last week I was feeling really triggered because of the Liam Payne news and how similar it was to my late husband George’s death." Kerry - who is mum to Lilly, Holly, Heidi, Max and DJ - told OK!: "And this week my mum hasn’t been well, her health is really declining and it is worrying for me. It’s hard to see.
"Ryan and I have been arguing like cat and dog too so we’ve not had the best time. We’re not in a great place at the moment. I do like to be honest when things are like this, though, because no one is perfect and everyone has their issues. I’d much rather be real about it."
Kerry had also shared her fear over becoming a wife again following her previous marriages. She was first married Westlife star Brian McFadden in 2002, but they divorced four years later. In 2007, the I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! winner tied the knot with taxi driver Mark Croft, and they welcomed two children into the world together before divorcing in 2011. Kerry then married former rugby league player George Kay in 2014, and they had a child before splitting three years later. George passed away in 2019.
