Kerry Katona eyes up Loose Women return, 20 years after quitting ITV staple

Kerry Katona has reportedly set her sights on a Loose Women return - some 20 years after quitting the ITV hit on which she was initially a panellist.

The former Atomic Kitten vocalist appeared briefly on the show last week, to promote her new book Kerry Katona: Whole Again.

And The Mirror reports that the star described her experience as being a 'home from home'

Although Kerry admitted that is it 'always enjoyable going on the show' she soon spoke of how it was 'difficult and emotional' to open up about her ex-husband, George Kay. The 42-year-old also announced that she would like to return as a regular panellist, stating that she 'absolutely loves' the other women who present on the regular.

Writing in her New! column, Kerry said: "I had a brilliant time on Loose Women last week, talking about my new book Kerry Katona: Whole Again, which I wrote with New's former celebrity editor, Sarah Morton. She even supported me backstage!"

She added: "Don't get me wrong, I found it difficult and emotional talking so openly about my ex, George Kay, but it's always enjoyable going on the show. I had the best group of women sitting beside me.

"I've known Linda Robson and Coleen Nolan for years, and I absolutely love Janet Street-Porter. Jane Moore is great, too."

Kerry then finished off by penning that she would love nothing more than to return to the show as a regular feature.

In her book, Kerry opens up about her ex husband George Kay who passed away back in 2019 from a drug overdose. She said her late husband put 'sinister' spells on her because he was 'obsessed' with black magic.

The mum-of-five was married to George Kay for five years.

Speaking about George's 'love of the occult', she writes: "He always had a foot in the dark side and he used to practice black magic, as he was obsessed with the occult.

"I remember when we were living in Chinnor, George was messing with dark forces. I used to find these dead flies in the bathroom all the time. Hundreds of them, scattered all over the floor. We’d hoover them up and then a couple of days later, they’d be back.

"Now that alone is enough to freak anyone out, but I later found out George was practising black magic in that same bathroom."
