In a raw and emotional revelation, Atomic Kitten's Kerry Katona has opened up about the profound heartache of being estranged from two of her children. The singer and TV personality broke down in tears during a candid podcast appearance, sharing her ongoing pain.
The 43-year-old mother-of-five is currently not speaking to her two eldest daughters, Molly, 21, and Lilly-Sue, 20, from her first marriage to Westlife's Brian McFadden. The situation has left her devastated, fearing a repeat of her own troubled past.
'History Repeating Itself' Fears
Katona emotionally recounted her own childhood, marked by her mother's heroin addiction and being placed into care. She expressed her deepest fear that her family is now trapped in a similar cycle of estrangement and pain.
"It's like history repeating itself," she confessed, her voice cracking with emotion. "I was brought up in care, I didn't have a relationship with my mum... and now I'm not having a relationship with my two eldest daughters."
A Mother's Unwavering Love
Despite the painful separation, Kerry's love for her daughters remains steadfast. She revealed she still writes them both birthday and Christmas cards every year, holding onto hope for reconciliation.
"I'll always be there for them, no matter what," she stated emphatically. Her commitment shines through the pain, a testament to a mother's unconditional love.
Focusing on the Family She Has
While navigating this difficult chapter, Kerry is channelling her energy into her three younger children: Heidi, 16, Max, 15, and DJ, eight. She is determined to break the cycle and provide a stable, loving home for them.
The interview serves as a poignant reminder of the complex and often hidden personal struggles faced by celebrities, far removed from the glare of the spotlight.
