Reality star turned entrepreneur Kerry Katona and fiance Ryan Mahoney proudly showed off their new matching lime green supercars - after telling fans they are a symbol of "believing in yourself and working b***** hard". Former Atomic Kitten Kerry took to Instagram earlier this week to say just how proud she is that her hard work in recent years has enabled her to afford the brightly-coloured lamborghinis.
The couple were spotted as they parked up the matching cars - a new Aventador sports model and the more family-friendly Urus SUV - in Cheshire before heading for a spot of lunch. The luxury cars retail for around £200,000 when purchased new.
And Kerry told fans how she hoped that the cars prove that you can bounce back from anything if you "always work hard and believe in yourself." In an emotional video post she proudly showed fans that she was taking delivery of the Aventador this week, to join her matching Urus that she had purchased back in April.

In the Instagram post, Kerry, 41, said: "I want to show people what you can achieve in life when you put your mind to something. Don't let anyone ever tell you that you can't do something. Always believe in yourself, and work b***** hard."
"If you work bloody hard you can end up getting something like this," pointing the camera at the sporty vehicle. She continued: "I'm so proud, of how hard me and Ryan have worked. And we've just got our new delivery of our car.
"This isn't about bragging. You've all watched my story, you've all seen me at my lowest, where I could have died, I should have died, I can't believe I'm still alive."
Warrington-raised Kerry, who has previously revealed that joining the adults-only content site OnlyFans helped to make her a millionaire once again, also hit out at those who say it's only by taking her clothes off that she has made a success, bouncing back from twice being made bankrupt in the past.
Responding to an apparent comment on her video she said: "You can go on about me taking my clothes off, who gives a flying f***, look what's on my drive!
"My kids are in private school, and it's not just that, I've got my own apps, my own clothing range. I'm a creative director at Thrills, I do TV work, I have my own column, I work my a**e off."
Showing fans videos of the two bright green cars she said: "To get two of them, I mean how lucky am I? How lucky are we? I've worked hard, I've worked really really really hard and I've been bankrupt twice. I've grafted my arse off."
Kerry snuggled up to Ryan for a kiss as they met up in their matching cars. And Kerry was also spotted carrying a number of old newspaper covers from around the time she was crowned Queen of the Jungle in reality show I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here in the third series back in 2004.
The front pages heralded Kerry as "Special K", "Kerry Our Jungle Queen" and a splash in the Irish Sun with Kerry's youngest two daughters as toddlers saying "That's Our Mum". The newspapers appeared to have been newly framed as Kerry took them to her car.
Since her huge success winning that show, Kerry has experienced a number of personal highs and lows in her life, and has spoken openly about her personal battles including how she made her first million before losing it all and being made bankrupt.
Sharing in the video why she wanted to show fans her two cars she said: "I want to encourage anyone that's out there especially when it comes to financial issues. I've worked hard for this. I'm not bragging. I've been bankrupt twice, I took s*** loads of drugs, I should be dead.
"I've been married five times, been in refuges, foster home, I've done the lot, yet I didn't give up, I got back up, I keep fighting for another day. All I'm trying to do is encourage other people out there, that if I can do it, anyone can do it. Believe in yourself and surround yourself with good people that's what you need."
Kerry encouraged fans to set goals and write in a journal to help with visualisation. She urged people to "get your gratitude" and explained how she learnt that from a young age.
She said: "I know what it's like to be in a refuge, we got rehomed when I was nine years of age, no Christmas presents, no furniture and the refuge knocked on the door with a bag of second hand stuff and I was so grateful, so eternally grateful for that. Now look what we have received," she said pointing at the car.
She continued: "Hard work pays off. I'm just so proud of us. We're so grateful, we're salt of the earth, I'm no different than anyone else, it's just if I have a problem everyone knows about it. Keep fighting people, if you fall down, get back up."
