One follower commented: "Kerry Katona faking a pregnancy, weird and insensitive behaviour." Another added: "Kerry Katona faking pregnancy for April fools then deleting it is just f***ing weird."
"Kerry Katona already showing she’s an insensitive dumb a** with a fake pregnancy announcement," one complained. "Pretending to be pregnant will NEVER be funny."
Her spokesman claimed that the star was not meant to post the picture to her public Instagram account. It was instead meant to be on her private one shared with friends.
The spokesman for Kerry said: "It was an April Fools joke for her fiancé Ryan but she posted it to her public account and not her private one with very close friends by accident.
"Kerry herself cannot have any more children due to medical issues and has openly spoken about this in the past. She sincerely apologises to anyone who is offended and would never post anything to purposely upset anyone.”
Kerry is already a mum to Lilly-Sue, 19, Molly, 20, Heidi, 15, and Dylan-Jorge, seven, and son Max, 13.
