Just three months into their relationship, Brian proposed. The couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Molly, in 2001.

The following year, they had a lavish celebrity wedding. However, their marital bliss was short-lived as they separated in 2004, shocking fans worldwide, reports the Mirror.

Their messy divorce in 2006 led Kerry to turn to cocaine and alcohol, marking the start of a tough battle with substance abuse.

Kerry had once turned her affections to childhood sweetheart Dave Cunningham, who in 2005 popped the question. Yet their romance was cut short – before they could reach the altar, they split during a holiday in Spain after Kerry discovered Dave’s secret liaisons with an ex-girlfriend, leading to a turbulent end to their engagement.

A source disclosed to People back then: “Kerry is devastated. After everything she has gone through this year she truly believed Dave could be her saviour. Then the shocking revelations about his ex emerged. But because her private life has been made public before, she made a pact not to discuss the split.”

The songstress shared her hopes of true love with Mark Croft and tied the knot with the cabbie on Valentine’s Day in 2007. The union brought them two children, Heidi and Maxwell, but harmony was short-lived as difficulties in their marriage saw Kerry once again battling substance abuse.

As the relationship deteriorated, Kerry confided to the Mirror about her subsequent descent into depression and reliance on medication: “I wouldn’t have a bath for days. I had no friends, no family around. I was on so much medication, so many drugs.”

When Kerry Katona first met George Kay, she had high hopes of finally settling down and enjoying the family life she’d always yearned for. Things seemed to be going well when they welcomed their daughter Dylan-Jorge and got engaged, eventually tying the knot in 2014.

However, their relationship hit a rocky patch due to George’s party lifestyle, leading to a brief separation before they reconciled and renewed their wedding vows. The couple finally parted ways in 2017.

Tragically, two years later, George passed away after consuming a ‘large quantity of cocaine’ at a Holiday Inn in Cheshire. During her stint on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins, Kerry became emotional while discussing her tumultuous relationship with Kay.

In scenes filmed in 2020, Kerry confessed that the shouting from the army officers triggered flashbacks of her time with Kay. Kerry expressed her mixed emotions following George’s death, saying: “When George died, there were so many mixed emotions… I was so angry. I was so angry at him. ‘How f***ing dare you die? Putting me and the kids through all that s***, and then you just die? The worst conversation I’ve ever had to have was with my five year old to tell her her daddy had died..”

“How do you explain that to a baby? A t**t as he was, you know, he was still a dad. So now I’ve got to do right by my kids, because they’ve been through so much already.”

After this, Kerry had a series of quick romances. She dated handyman Adam Waldron, but his inability to cope with her ‘crazy life’ led to their split after several heated arguments.

The singer then had a brief relationship with fellow Celebrity Big Brother star Lucien Laviscount, which didn’t last long. Not one to dwell on the past, Kerry quickly moved on to Stuart Nuttal, whom she met on an online dating site.

However, their two-month romance ended abruptly when Stuart sent her a text message ending things, describing her as a “bitter disappointment.”

Kerry thought she’d found ‘the one’ when she met artist Steve Alce, but after eight months, they decided it wasn’t working out, leaving her heartbroken once again. Shortly after her divorce from George, Kerry introduced her new boyfriend, James English, to her social media followers.

She shared a cosy selfie of them together on Instagram. But just a few months later, she announced their split with a cryptic post about single life.

Kerry Katona and her fiancé Ryan Mahoney have ended their relationship. The pair first met on Bumble in 2018 and initially parted ways after a trip to Thailand.

However, they rekindled their romance the following year. Kerry has previously referred to Ryan as a “Godsend” after the death of her ex-husband George.

The couple had taken significant steps in their relationship, including moving in together with Kerry’s children in 2021, and Ryan had proposed to her. Nevertheless, three years later, they have decided to go their separate ways.

Kerry announced the cancellation of their planned Las Vegas wedding on Instagram while sharing an update about visiting her ailing mother, Sue, in the hospital. When a fan inquired about the doctor’s marital status, Kerry playfully responded, “No, but I am! “.
