Kerry Katona has shared more details about ex-husband Brian McFadden’s infidelity before the former couple tied the knot in 2022.

Atomic Kitten singer Kerry, 44, and former Westlife singer Brian, 45, were once upon a time the pop music industry’s sweetest couple when they first started dating 2000. Kerry and Brian first locked eyes with one another when they met in August 1999, during a Smash Hits roadshow when their respective bands, Atomic Kitten and Westlife, were touring together.

Immediately sparks flew and the pair quickly started dating as they felt as though they were ‘made for one another’. Just two weeks later, Uptown Girl singer Brian proposed to Kerry and asked for her hand in marriage.

In 2002, Kerry and Brian tied the knot on what was meant to be the most special day of their lives, however, there was dark secret laying above their heads – and it was all down to Brain’s infertility on his stag do.

During their marriage, Kerry and Brian welcomed two daughters Molly, 24, in 2001, and Lily-Sue, 22, two years later in 2003.

Although their marriage appeared to be going from strength to strength, when an earth-shattering revelation came to light, Kerry decided to immediately dump Brian. Kerry was left utterly heartbroken when it was revealed that Brian had cheated on her with a lapdancer at his stag do.

Brian later also cited fundamental incompatibilities, stating he woke up one day and realized he didn’t want to spend his life with Kerry and they had nothing in common.

Opening up about her first marriage split with Brian due to his infidelity, Kerry said that she was left blind-sided by his actions because she felt so in love with him. Lifting the lid on their relationship, Kerry told host Paul C Brunson on his We Need To Talk Podcast: “He doesn’t like me talking about him, but Brian’s a part of my story, only a small part.

“There’s been so much more than Brian. I’m eternally grateful… I’ll never forget walking down that aisle and thinking, this is crazy. Like four years ago, I was in a semi-independent home, and I’ve got Louis Walsh and Dane Bowers singing and London Gospel Choir. I’ve got Westlife at the altar…”

“It wasn’t love at first sight for me. It, you know, I think he was my first husband, the first time I had a child, my first proper love. It was so romantic, it was a fairytale. Brian was my very first love, I think. Proper love, yeah. Proper grown-up love,” Kerry shared.

“I say grown-up—we were 18 when we met. It was so overwhelming, and we were still only babies. Paul, I mean, it was… plus all this attention. It was madness.”

Gushing over her first love with Brain, Kerry went on: “Brian really made me laugh. He was… he’s so quick-witted and so funny, like he was. His humor is what won me over. He really loved me. We were so in love. I think he was the first proper person who genuinely cared about my well-being.

“I told him what happened to me, and he said, ‘I’m gonna take it away from all that.’ And he was my knight in shining armor. He rescued me. He was my knight in shining armor.”

However, sadly for Kerry, the fairytale wasn’t to last as Brian cheated on her with a lapdancer on the night of his stag-do.

Sharing her heartbreak with podcast host Paul, Kerry explained: “I didn’t know that Brian had cheated on his stag do before we got married. I only found out after we got married.

“The girl who we cheated on me with, with a lap dancer, he made her sign an NDA, which was stupid, really, because it’s in writing. Paid her 15 grand to keep her mouth shut, and she still went to the papers anyway.

“It was never the same after that with me and Brian. So I think even on the wedding day, Brian must have had doubts, but we were puppies, we were babies, and it was such a huge thing to do. I met Brian in 1999 and we separated in 2004, we divorced in 2007. So this is the thing people think, Paul, that I’ve just had like these things. I haven’t. I’ve gone in all wholeheartedly, and I’ve given it my all.”

Kerry admitted that she tried to forgive Brian for his cheating ways, but in the end, the resentment became too much to bare.

“Even after all the betrayals that have happened to me in my life, I’m still really trusting. I still give people the benefit of the doubt. I still believe in good people,” Kerry explained.

Kerry explained that her paranoia about Brian cheating on her again reached an all-time high and in the end, she couldn’t move past the fact that he gave the women he cheated on her with £15,000 to keep it quiet.

“What happened with that was too much… because I loved it when Brian was on stage. Then I was like, ‘He’s ringing? He texted? What you doing? Where you going?’ That’s not who I am.

“And then I resented him for making me become that person. I was the only one of the Westlife misses who knew there was going to be lap dancers at the stag do and I told Brian, ‘Enjoy it, sweetheart,’ not to go and get a bloody blow**b when she gets 15 grand. I only got a pair of shoes for giving him a blow**b.”

David Beckham slipped back into his iconic Speedos for his recent holiday with the family. The footballer, 50, regularly rocks tiny swim trunks on his lavish trips and it got to the point his son, Cruz Beckham, followed in his footsteps by posing in similar tiny swimwear.

However, David showed his son who’s boss in new snaps shared on Victoria Beckham’s Instagram page. The fashion designer, 51, posted a carousel of wholesome snaps from their recent Italian holiday, starting off with a picture of her leaning on her husband while relaxing on their yacht.

She also shared pictures with her daughter Harper Seven, her sons Cruz and Romeo, and their grandparents, who had lavish dinners and gorgeous beaches.

Victoria captioned the post, “Perfect end to the summer.” As he leant back on the yacht’s railing, David showed off his abs in a pair of tiny red Speedos in one photo. Through his tan, it appeared to be from one of his earlier trunks.

Fans eluded the sweet family photos and David’s tannins in the comment section. One user praised the photos’ “love everything” aside from David’s sunburn.

Beautiful family . You appear to be more and more Harry Seven! Another fan expressed more beauty and satisfaction. As they made reference to David’s Speedo photo, one person said, “Thank you for the generosity of slide 15.

One particular image from Victoria’s family’s St Tropez holiday shocked viewers last month when the family shared photos.

She shared a series of heartfelt snaps, but one photo didn’t sit well with Cruz, 20. Wearing his signature white briefs, Cruz wasn’t thrilled his mum shared the intimate shot with her 33 million followers as he responded with a cheeky disapproving meme in the comments.

Cruz soon shared a photo of him posing in budgie smugglers on his own. Cruz was undoubtedly popular when he spread his legs wide while sat on a large, white sofa at the back of the boat during his Instagram photo of the Beckham yacht trip.

In his tiny trunks and pair of sunglasses, he proudly posed for photos that left little room for imagination. He later apologized for the photo on social media.

He apologized by posting a new carousel of photos from the family vacation, which included dad, David, and said, “Sorry I don’t have more speedos pictures pictures x.”

Babyshambles just announced that they’re reuniting to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their debut album, Down in Albion, which will see them play across the nation next year.

This is how you can see Babyshambles on tour starting in 2019. The band’s first tour de force in more than ten years will be Down in Albion, their first studio album, on the 20th anniversary. Pete Doherty took a break from his other band, The Libertines, to form the band.

Doherty once said, “It’s unfinished business, and everywhere I go, I get’what’s happening with the ‘shambles’. For me, it’s obvious that I want to play some of those old tunes and have a little shindig.

However, the band acknowledges that heartache was what spurred them to re-enter the road. Former lead guitarist Patrick Walden passed away in June at the age of 46. Drew McConnell, a base player, said: “We have to decide to go on a tour right now.

Since Patrick’s tragic passing, according to them, the band has since decided to continue celebrating the anniversary.

Down in Albion, Shotter’s Nation, and Sequel To The Prequel are three albums Babyshambles have released throughout their careers. Due to the band members not having been in direct communication, it was “hard” to say when the reunion discussions had taken place in a new interview.

He said, “I don’t think the four of us have been in the same room for so long,” in an interview with NME. He continued, adding that he and Mick had been playing with the idea of tiptoeing into “polite society” for about four to five years.

Before splitting in 2009, Babyshambles had been scheduled to back Oasis, but they were ultimately dropped from the bill because they failed to make the tour’s opening night. It’s unfortunate that no one in the audience believed that it wasn’t my fault, but I was willing to accept that. Pete claimed that that was the missus who had purposefully kept me.

He just appeared so peaceful, and I didn’t want to wake him up, he said, “OK cool,” and Pete said he “hopes” there will be new material because he has already written a song that he thinks could work for the band.

He claimed that releasing a single as well as a few B-sides would be “nice,” and that he already has some concept ideas ready.

The band will play venues in London’s renowned Brixton Academy, Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle, Glasgow, Leeds, Nottingham, Norwich, and Plymouth. Hits like F*** Forever were included on the 2005 album Down In Albion.

Tickets for the live performances go on sale on September 5 and there is a pre-sale on September 3.

Jade Goody, a famous reality television personality who bravely battled cervical cancer and passed away in 2009 at the age of 27, made sure that her two sons’ financial protection was assured.

Jade Goody worked tirelessly until her passing to protect her sons’ financial security. Bobby and Freddy, her sons, were just five and four when Jade passed away, aged just 27 after being diagnosed with cervical cancer seven months later. However, Jade was determined to give them a life unlike her previous ones.

Her mother Jackiey was a drug addict when she was a child, and her father, Andrew, was also a drug addict and allegedly a pimp. Jade was born and raised in the East London Borough of Bermondsey. Even in her final months, Jade made an effort to ensure that her two sons would never be able to live the life they had raised.

It was her appearance on Big Brother where Jade made a name for herself and became one of the nation’s first reality stars, and was instantly catapulted to fame. Through this, she found herself landing lavish brand deals, launching her own products, and later appearing on Celebrity Big Brother.

When she died on March 22, 2009, Jade left a staggering £3million behind for her two boys in a trust and shared her wishes that their dad, This Morning presenter Jeff Brazier, used some of the cash to pay for their sons to be privately educated. But, Jade’s widower, Jack Tweed, later claimed that Bobby and Freddy didn’t get the full benefits, despite her continuing to work throughout treatment.

In 2014, Jeff made a public comment about Jade’s desire to continue working while being treated. Jade signed a remarkable $ 700,000 deal with OK ahead of her 2009 wedding to Jack. The magazine that owned all of their wedding photos and images from the big day.

She determined the cost of sending the boys through private education until they were 16 as the first thing she did. The answer was “£260, 000,” Jeff said, adding that “in her final months, that was what kept her going, even when she was so in pain and was so weak.” She had no idea what was important.

She vehemently desired for them to receive a never-heralded upbringing. However, it was claimed that Jade’s estate had been hit by a £1.8 million tax bill just two years after her passing. In her final four years of life, Jade allegedly did not file any income taxes.

However, Jeff later explained that her own Essex-based beauty salon had caused more tax issues. He responded, “I am aware that everything is a mess.” Jade’s problem was that she wasn’t good at taking advice, which I only know now.

“It would go in one ear and out the other if you tried to tell her something.” Although she desired that both Bobby and Freddy receive private education, only Bobby attended Bishop’s Stortford College, which was said to have been more appropriate for his ADHD needs.

In a 2019 interview with The Sun, Jack said, “If she had known, Jade would have broken.” She would be devastated. The person is dead, and I have never been able to understand that. Later, Jack claimed that he should have paid more attention to her estate estate beneficiary.

In order to avoid inheritance tax, he was able to transfer funds to the trusts Jade had established by acting as a “conduit” for Bobby and Freddy’s will. In an effort to help pay for Bobby and Freddy’s education, he later claimed that he had given the trustees a portion of the proceeds from their wedding.

However, Jack was left devastated after the taxman had taken a sizable sum of money. He stated, “I don’t want to accuse anyone because something just doesn’t seem to go my way. There is no way around it. I probably should have been more involved in the money issue, keeping an eye on where everything went and making sure no one wasted it on me. But at the time, it didn’t feel appropriate for me to participate in that.

Despite Jack’s assertions about the funds, Jade’s mother claimed in 2019 that a sizable sum had still been left over for her son’s education. In a trust, there is money for the boys. Before revealing that Freddy “loved” his state school, she said, “Bobby’s private education is still funded by Jade’s money.”

After Jade’s death, Jack claimed that she had tried to split the money they’d earned from their wedding photo shoot and that he had not “take a penny” from her. He claimed that he had only inherited Jade’s car, which was valued at £16, 000. Jade claimed that Jade wanted to make sure he was “alright” because he was young, but he objected.

Freddy, Jade’s youngest son, will now be a first-time father, which would have made her the first grandmother. Freddy is said to have had a strained relationship with Jeff in recent years, but the TV star is fully supportive of his son as he enters a new chapter in his life.
