Kerry Katona has revealed she has put on 2.5 stone, and while she admitted it made her ‘miserable’ she managed to find some upsides to the weight gain too.
The former Atomic Kitten star, 42, joked that her recent weight gain will come in handy this winter as heating bills skyrocket due to the cost of living crisis.
She told Closer magazine: ‘I’ve put on about two and half stone and I’m now a size 14, which is making me miserable.
‘But it’s really cold at the moment and the electricity bills are getting higher and higher. I just saw that and thought it’s better to eat more and get more insulation on my body and save money at the same time.’
Kerry has been open about her past surgical procedures including a tummy tuck which she wasn’t happy with the results of.
She explained: ‘I had a tummy tuck and they took away my belly button and left a horrible bit that pops out at the top. I never asked for any of that.

‘My stomach looks so swollen now. It’s just a mess. I’m like a f**king flat pack from Ikea, they just need to put me back together again.’
The mother of five, who has daughters Mollie, 21, and Lilly-Sue, 19 with first husband Brian McFadden, as well as Heidi, 15, and Max, 14, with ex Mark Croft and daughter Dylan-Jorge, eight, with late ex George Kay, opened up about her desire to have more children with her fiancé Ryan Mahoney, 34.
She revealed that she is freezing her eggs so that they can have children in the future, explaining: ‘Me and the kids are more than enough for Ryan but he hasn’t got any of his own kids biologically.
‘We just want to make sure the option is always there in the future because he’s still only 34. We’re total workaholics at the minute so I don’t think we’ll have a baby straight away.
‘We want to own our own house and keep building our brand.’
