Kerry Katona’s dreams of living in the sun in tatters as she abandons plans to quit the UK

KERRY Katona has revealed she’s abandoned plans to quit the UK and move her entire family to Spain.

The reality star and Atomic Kitten declared last year that she was putting plans in place to leave England for a new life in the summer of 2024.

But now, after taking into consideration her needs of her five children, she’s had a change of heart.

Kerry wrote in her OK! column this week: “We’ve been thinking about moving to London or Spain, but we’ve decided to stay in Cheshire.”

“DJ is happy at school and doesn’t want to move, which is important because I want her to have stability,” she wrote: “Kids need that. And Max is starting college in September, which is exciting.

“I do have to travel to London for work, but I don’t mind the journey if it means keeping things stable.”

In October, after time away in Marbella, Kerry had excitedly shared about her dream ‘big move’.

Posting a video of herself in a summery maxi dress from her own boutique, Kerry said: “I’m in such a happy… I can’t wait to move out here. I cannot wait!”

Again, writing in OK!, she said that she was fed up of travelling from her home in Cheshire to meetings in London.

“You can hop on a plane and be in Marbella in less time. So, that’s our plan. It’s exciting,” she said.

Kerry is mum to daughters Molly, 22, and Lilly-Sue, 21, who she shares with her ex-husband Brian McFadden.

She gave birth to daughter Heidi, 16, and 15-year-old son Maxwell during her marriage to Mark Croft.

Kerry’s youngest child is daughter Dylan-Jorge, who is nine years old. She had her during her relationship with the late George Kay.

She’s now engaged to Ryan Mahoney.
