Kerry Katona has been hospitalised after being diagnosed with colitis, a chronic inflammatory bowel condition. The 42-year-old former Atomic Kitten star was reportedly placed in a hospital corridor due to a lack of available beds.

In an emotional update, Katona expressed her distress over the situation, stating that she finally received a bed after a prolonged wait. The singer has now decided to seek private medical care to manage her condition.
