Kerry Katona’s<\/a> impressive loyalty glistened in a candid interview about pal Katie Price<\/a> \u2014 in which she praised the reality star’s strength and determination.<\/p>\n Kerry, 45, was lauded online for the support she has offered Katie, her best friend, in an astonishing new interview. The former member of Atomic Kitten said: “Kate is not fragile. She\u2019s the strongest woman I know. She\u2019s also more sober, more together, than anyone gives her credit for. And she will get her empire back. I am in awe of her.”<\/p>\n Her clear verdict of Katie’s character comes despite the former model’s health battle, for which fans have expressed concern<\/a>. Katie had said last week her life became “sad and lonely” following mental health challenges some time ago. She has had several cosmetic surgeries in recent years, including one just this month<\/a> on her lips and this has divided opinion.<\/p>\n But mum-of-five Kerry says her and Katie’s “lives are very mirrored” as she offered her support to the star today. Kerry added: “People said, ‘Don\u2019t touch Kate. Don\u2019t go near her.’ What is wrong with them? I\u2019ve been where Kate has been. I\u2019ve done the drugs, divorces, bankruptcy. Our lives are very mirrored. Why would I not support her? No one supported me.”<\/p>\n READ MORE: Katie Price apologises to Myleene Klass after attacking her in scathing rant<\/a>READ MORE: I was engaged to Kelly Brook – now I’m getting married to Lewis Hamilton’s ex<\/a> Kerry’s fans praised her loyality following the interview. One posted online: “Tough cookie- well done Kerry you\u2019re looking fab too.” Another said: “I admire your loyalty, Kerry. You are strong like Katie too.”<\/p>\n Kerry, who grew up in Warrington, Cheshire, recently took part in a documentary about girl bands, and how being propelled to fame at early ages \u2014 in her case just 18 with Atomic Kitten \u2014 can be unhealthy. She said she found it difficult to watch the programme when it aired, as it brought back unhappy memories.<\/p>\n Kerry left Atomic Kitten two days before the release of Whole Again in January 2001, a song which became the band’s first UK number one single. Since then, the TV star has faced further challenges, including two bankruptcies and several boob jobs.<\/p>\n And it is through these hard times, she and Katie haved remained close and crutches of support. They may both have five children but Kerry believes their parenting styles are different. The former glamour model, who endorsed Donald Trump<\/a> during his electoral campaign last year, told the Daily Mail<\/a> today: “Well, she\u2019s really laidback about everything \u2014 including parenting. I\u2019m more strict. And I\u2019m more fiery. I\u2019m more likely to headbutt someone.”<\/p>\n Kerry’s eldest three children, though, are now adults. At the time of interview with the Daily Mail, she said Heidi was at Katie’s house \u2014 filming with Katie\u2019s daughter Princess for a new reality TV show. Her other daughter, Lily, meanwhile, is an accountant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kerry Katona, who is a TV personality and former member of Atomic Kitten, spoke candidly about former model…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":586379,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[45674,77,694,818,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-586378","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-atomic-kitten","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-katie-price","11":"tag-kerry-katona","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115592352871959213","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/586378","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=586378"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/586378\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/586379"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=586378"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=586378"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=586378"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Katie](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/1_PROD-The-Future-Is-White-Fox-Party.jpg\")
