Kerry Katona 'never been so ill' as she suffers from mystery virus

Kerry Katona is "feeling down" after suffering from a mystery illness.

The former Atomic Kitten singer first started feeling ill around Christmas time and has spent the last few weeks on courses of antibiotics. Now, she claims to have "never been so poorly" in her life as she still isn't feeling 100%.

Writing in her OK! Magazine column, she said: "I’ve never been so poorly in my life! I’ve been on two loads of antibiotics over the past few weeks. I’m still not 100% right, but I feel much better than I did and I’m getting there."

Kerry, 42, explained that doctors weren't quite sure what was going on with her either. She wrote: "All of my lateral flow tests were negative, but every doctor I spoke to said they believed it could be a new variant of covid that hasn’t been identified yet."

In an Instagram video she told her fans that being ill was "getting her down". The mum-of-five said: "It's really really got me down because I am normally like the person who's full of morale and keeps the energy up, and all I'm doing is moaning and complaining."

Kerry is set to have corrective surgery on her stomach later this month, after admitting she didn't 'look after herself properly' following a previous tummy tuck procedure. Discussing the upcoming cosmetic surgery last year, Kerry explained: "I never looked after myself properly and I've messed it all up, my body is really swollen."
