Former Atomic Kitten singer and reality TV star Kerry Katona has delivered a blistering response to an online troll who cruelly targeted her appearance in a now-viral social media clip.
The 43-year-old celebrity took to Instagram to address a hateful comment that specifically mocked her eye, which has a noticeable droop—a condition she has been open about for years.
The Viral Clapback
In a powerful and emotional video posted to her Stories, Kerry didn't hold back. "This is for the woman that said I've got a wonky eye," she began, staring directly into the camera. She then proceeded to educate the anonymous critic on the real reason behind her appearance.
"I've got a droopy eye, love, from a car accident when I was a kid," she explained calmly but firmly. "So it's not wonky, it's droopy. Get your facts right before you come for me."
A History of Health and Honesty
This isn't the first time Kerry has spoken about the condition. She has previously attributed the ptosis (drooping eyelid) to a childhood car accident. Her candidness about her health extends to other struggles, including her well-documented battles with mental health and substance abuse, making her a figure of resilience for many fans.
Her response wasn't just about setting the record straight; it was a stand against needless online cruelty. She used the moment to champion self-love and call out the culture of bullying that thrives on social media platforms.
Fan Support Pours In
The clip quickly spread beyond Instagram, garnering immense support from her followers and fellow celebrities alike. Fans flooded the comments sections of her posts, praising her for her strength and honesty in facing down the troll.
Many shared messages of admiration, commending her for using her platform to raise awareness about the impact of thoughtless online comments and for encouraging others to embrace their imperfections.
Kerry Katona's fierce clapback serves as a reminder that behind every celebrity profile is a real person, and that kindness online is never out of fashion.
