Kerry Katona inspired by Kylie Jenner to have sixth child with Ryan Mahoney

Kerry Katona might not be done having kids.

The mum-of-five says she's been inspired by Kylie Jenner's confession that she wants seven children to consider having another child, her first with boyfriend Ryan Mahoney.

Kerry, 39, is already mum to Molly, 18, Lily-Sue, 17, Heidi, 13, Max, 12, and DJ, five, and a recent menopause scare has made her realise that she might want more.

The former Atomic Kitten star recently visited a doctor after becoming convinced that she was going through early menopause.

And it made her rethink everything.

She told OK! : " Kylie Jenner ’s admission that she wants seven children got me thinking about adding to my own brood. Don’t get me wrong, if I found out I was pregnant tomorrow I’d s**t myself – I’m on the pill and I have contraceptive injections – but I wouldn’t want the choice taken away from me.

"Which is why I was so upset by a recent early menopause scare. I was waking up in hot sweats and convinced I was going through the change. I’m only 39 and if that happened I’d be devastated.

"My eldest girls didn’t understand the problem, reminding me I didn’t want any more children, but I was in tears because I’m still not sure I don’t want to give Ryan his own baby."

Kerry says that a visit to the doctors reassured her that her symptoms were just a side effect to some medication that she was on, but says the whole ordeal sent her mind into "overdrive".

Meanwhile, Kerry has been doing her bit to support the NHS, by auctioning off her I'm A Celebtity... Get Me Out Of Here! T-shirt.

The framed navy shirt is printed with Kerry's name and the phone number people used to vote for her during her winning stint on the ITV show in 2004.

Kerry posed up in her garden holding the shirt, and wrote on Instagram : "Come everyone get bidding to help the @nhsenglandldn https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Queen-of-The-Jungle-Kerry-Katona-s-Winning-Top/333567517536?hash=item4daa2c6360:g:mpoAAOSwhgxeif23 "

The shirt was bid on 26 times and eventually sold for £3,200.

Her fans were impressed by her kind actions.

One commented: "Fair play to you for doing this!!! It’s a real shame that others in your position are not doing the same thing!! Pay it forward and be kind always"

Another wrote: "Good on you Kerry! Lovely gesture!"
