Description

Knowing from a young age that she was destined for fame, Kerry Katona's life has been predictably unpredictable. With stability absent from the Warrington natives foster home hopping childhood, Katona's need to grow up quickly had both its pros and cons. This freedom that allowed her to be making £500 a night as a teenage lap dancer also led to a reliance on recreational drugs that lingered for years, but her fearless ambition to be self sufficient and escape soon paid off. Katona was noticed by Andy McCluskey and soon cast as an original member of the pop girl group, Atomic Kitten, in 1998.The band's mainstream success would turn the future Queen of the Jungle's life upside down and she soon began to realise that the rise to fame exceeded the reality. Numerous failed marriages, daily appearances in the intrusive British tabloids, countless controversies both true and false and a dormant music career began to be what the by now "reality star" became associated with in the decade that followed, compounded by the fact that she was struggling with bipolar in an era that saw a lack of education surround the topic of mental health.With Katona though, the fight is never over. Having seen levels of betrayal that seem unimaginable, the 'Whole Again' singer had run out of shoulders to lean on. The constant pillar however, was her children. Repeatedly falling short in her quest for identity, the answer was closer than Katona ever thought. Kerry Katona is a Mother.In episode 48 of The Michael Anthony Show, Katona holds nothing back as she honestly opens up on the good, bad and utterly ridiculous aspects of her thirty eight year old life. Still not without her occasional bump in the road, Kerry Katona remains a figure of resentment, adoration and intrigue to the general public. As opposed to reading about her life though clickbait/sensationalist headlines, we wanted to hear Kerry tell us about Kerry. It didn't disappoint.Episode available now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and SoundCloud.Follow and Listen through the links in the bio of @themichaelanthonyshow.Support the show
