Kerry Katona CONFIRMS split from fiancé Ryan Mahoney due to a ‘breach of trust’ and reveals he has moved out – after denying they had separated
Kerry Katona has confirmed that she’s split from her fiancé Ryan Mahoney due to a ‘breach of trust’.
The reality star, 44, and fitness trainer, 36, who have endured a rocky romance, seemingly went their separate ways four years after getting engaged earlier this month.
However she then denied the separation insisting it was all a joke. But now she has definitively said in a new interview that they are ‘no longer together’.
She told OK! Magazine:
‘Last week I spoke about how Ryan and I were having a tough time and now he has moved out of the house. We are no longer together and It’s been a really tough week – I never in a million years thought this would happen.
‘Without going into too much detail, there has been a breach of trust between us.. I don’t know if we’ll be able to work it out or not, but I do still love him so much.

‘I feel like everything has heaped on recently and it’s so much to deal with, I am really struggling. But I know I can get through it no matter what happens, I’ve been through break-ups before and come out the other side, so we just need to see what happens.’
It comes after she posted about her mother Sue’s hospital dash, which saw one person commenting: ‘So much love to you both and and is the Dr single?’, to which Kerry replied replying: ‘No but I am!’.
Following shocked fans racing to the comments, Kerry took to her Instagram Stories to put an end to the speculation after sitting vigil at her parent’s hospital beside.
Alongside a screen grab of the initial comment she wrote: ‘This is not me confirming I have split with @Ryanmajoney at all!!!,’
‘This was me, my mum and my best friend having a laugh about the Doctor trying to cheer my mother up!!’.
Mother-of-four Kerry had previously revealed that she’d offered Ryan a ‘free pass’ to have a baby with someone else.
Earlier this year, she admitted she felt ‘unsupported’ by Ryan and had temporarily moved in with her mother as cracks in their relationship began to show.

‘If I’m honest, I’ve felt more lonely than ever during my recovery. Ryan was away getting a tattoo in London when I went into hospital and I haven’t seen him since my surgery over a week ago.
‘That upset me, because it made me feel unsupported and I could have done with the emotional support. I’m always the ‘strong mum’ in our house and this week I really wanted to be looked after and have him here, but I had my mum instead.’
However it seemed things between them had been patched up in July, where she addressed their turbulent relationship and admitted she ‘couldn’t be without him’.
Alongside a loved-up snap of the couple, Kerry wrote: ‘Another date might with my man. Honestly we’ve had our ups and downs but I wouldn’t want to be without this man. I love you! I know it’s soppy but I do.’
Around the same time she revealed she’s been forced to cancel their Vegas wedding due to her children wanting to be present.
Kerry, who’s been married three times, joked that the kids had already seen her walk down the aisle a few times, so could sit this one out.
She told OK!: ‘Ryan and I were looking to go to Vegas to finally get married but Molly and Lilly said, ‘Don’t you dare do that without us’.
‘I told them they’d already been at too many of my weddings! That put those plans on the back burner’.
In February Kerry revealed her baby dream was over and admitted she had given Ryan ‘a free pass’ to have a baby with another woman.
Kerry explained: ‘I don’t want to deprive him in fact, I’ve given him a pass and said, ‘If this is something you want to pursue, leave me now!’
‘I never want someone to not have that feeling of having their own child. But I feel like I should be enough for a man.’
After making the claims, Kerry revealed she had a change of heart and did in fact want to have a sixth child. Kerry is a mum of five but shares no biological children with Ryan
She has daughters Molly, 22 and Lilly, 20 with her ex husband Brian McFadden who she was married to from 2002–2006.
She is also mum to Heidi, 17, and Max, 15, with ex husband Mark Croft and eight-year-old DJ from her relationship with the late George Kay.
Following a recent hospital scan, Kerry has explained how she was told by doctors that she can still carry a child which has prompted some conversations with Ryan about trying for a baby.
The Atomic Kitten star had been in hospital following a cancer scare and explained in her OK! Magazine column: ‘When I went for my scan last week and got the all-clear, I was told that I’ve still got follicles – meaning I could have another baby.’
‘I don’t think I would have another one, but Ryan keeps changing his mind! If he wants another one then that’s fine, but we need to get a move on.’
She added thought that she wouldn’t want to carry another child herself and would explore surrogacy after her difficult birth with youngest daughter DJ ‘traumatised’ her eldest children.
Last year Kerry, who has been engaged to Ryan since 2022, admitted there are times she changes her mind about tying the knot because her track record is ‘abysmal’.
Telling GB news: ‘I was married at age 21 as everyone knows, and then I rushed into another marriage.
‘My third marriage, my husband passed away, so I’m actually a widow. But I’ve been with Ryan now for five years and I am an old romantic, I believe in that happily ever after.
‘Just because it didn’t work out the first time, or the second, or the third time, does that mean I’ve got to be on my own for the rest of my life? No.’
Kerry also said Ryan plans to adopt her youngest child, DJ [Dylan Jorge] who was fathered by her late husband George Kay.
She said: ‘I have five children, I’ve got three children at home so I also think about security as well.
‘DJ, my youngest, she’s only ever known Ryan. Her dad died when she was only five, she’s only ever known Ryan.
‘So we’re going to go down the adoption route as well with DJ. But also, if anything was to happen to me, I want to make sure that security is there for my children to remain with Ryan and by being married, that all helps.
‘But saying that, some days I really want to marry him and then some days I really really don’t!
‘So we haven’t got married just yet because at the minute I really, really don’t.’
‘I think I’m scared. I’m actually scared. The thought of walking down the aisle. I get really scared because my track record has been abysmal.
‘When I first got married my first husband was 21 and I just wanted it to last forever. I didn’t want to be rich and famous, I always wanted to be a mummy and a wife.
‘We all want that happily ever after. And I still want that happily ever after, but I am a little bit scared.’

Kerry continued: ‘I tried everything in my marriage, I really did. My third husband, you know, I was in a really abusive relationship, but I kept going back and going back.
‘I’ve got no regrets from any of them because of all the lessons, but I think having a child was a much bigger deal than getting married.
‘It’s just a massive expense. When I marry Ryan, I’m just going to go to Vegas with Elvis.’
Ryan proposed during a family holiday in Spain, but in a sweet gesture first asked her kids for their mum’s hand in marriage.
Kerry previously praised Ryan for being ‘the most normal relationship she’s ever had and revealed she wanted him to propose.
Atomic Smitten: Kerry’s Ex Factor
While Kerry Katona has much to celebrate with the joyous news that she’s taking another trip down the aisle, her road to romantic bliss has been quite the rocky one. The Warrington native has already made three trips down the aisle, with each marriage coming to a tumultuous end. And with a handful of relationships in between, it’s fair to say that the star now deserves her shot at happily ever after. Below is a list of the star’s marriages and relationships.
BRIAN McFADDEN (1999-2004)
It was a match made in pop heaven when Kerry and BrianMcFadden met while their respective bands, Atomic Kitten and Westlife, toured together in 1999. Such a whirlwind was their romance that Brian proposed within three months of the pair getting together and they welcomed their daughter Molly in 2001. A lavish celebrity wedding followed in 2002, and a year later, they welcomed their second daughter, Lily-Sue. But, alas, it wasn’t meant to be, as in 2004 the couple announced their separation amid allegations Brian had cheated on Kerry with a lapdancer. Heartbroken Kerry was granted a quickie divorce.
DAN CORSI (2004)
Kerry very briefly got back together with her ex, Dan Corsi, who she first dated in 1998. During their time together, they visited Kerry’s native Warrington and were also seen partying up a storm at London hotspot-of-the-moment Pangaea. Dan boasted about bedding the star, saying: ‘Spending the night with Kerry was all I hoped it would be. I thought she’d find it hard to be with someone else after being with Brian for five years, but it felt natural.’ However, friends reportedly feared that Dan was just cashing in on Kerry’s fame, amid reports he still lived with his ex, while simultaneously texting another former flame. It took just six weeks of rekindled romance before Kerry, feeling that it was too soon after the breakdown of her marriage to embark on another relationship, reportedly dumped Dan over the phone. Surprisingly, her ex-husband Brian publicly shared his opinions on Dan, telling The Mirror at the time: ‘I‘ve known him for a while and I know he’s not the one for her. I don’t want her to get hurt. Despite everything that’s gone on, I just want her to be happy.’
DAVE CUNNINGHAM (2005)
In huge contrast to her glitzy showbiz marriage, Kerry embarked on a romance with her former childhood sweetheart, Dave Cunningham, with the couple announcing their engagement in 2005. However, it wasn’t long before their relationship hit the rocks, with the pair getting into a furious row while holidaying in Spain, amid rumours Dave had been seeing his ex-girlfriend behind her back. A source told People at the time: ‘Kerry is devastated. After everything she has gone through this year she truly believed Dave could be her saviour. Then the shocking revelations about his ex emerged.’
MARK CROFT (2005-2010)
Six weeks after her split, Kerry was swept off her feet by taxi driver Mark Croft. He proposed in 2006 after just six weeks of dating, and they tied the knot on Valentine’s Day 2007. Their marriage produced two children: daughter Heidi and son Maxwell. However, the union came about during a tumultuous time in Kerry’s life, as she watched her fortune (which once peaked at £6.8million) dwindle to the point that she was declared bankrupt. During her marriage, she also made her infamous appearance on ITV’s This Morning, where her slurred speech prompted concern among viewers. She ultimately admitted to a cocaine addiction, as she confessed: ‘I hated my life. I’d lie in bed for three days in a row doing cocaine with Mark. We did coke in our en suite and had a lock on the door. The kids knew if the bathroom door was locked they mustn’t come in.’ After having even considered suicide during their marriage, the couple split in 2010. Mark would later admit that he ‘bled Kerry dry’ during their ill-fated relationship.
LUCIEN LAVISCOUNT (2011)
She also dated Emily In Paris star Lucien Laviscount 12 years ago. Lucien and Kerry met during their time on Celebrity Big Brother in 2011, when he was 19 at the time and she was 31. At the time, Lucien described Kerry as ‘amazing’, adding: ‘When I’m with her, I don’t feel like there’s an age gap at all.’ Back then, Kerry dubbed them ‘friends with benefits’, later admitting they called it quits because “I would never want to take his childhood away from him!” 12 years after their whirlwind romance, Kerry broke her silence on their viral relationship as she branded Lucien ‘charming’ and ‘talented’. She told OK! Magazine recently: ‘Apparently my OK! magazine cover from 2011 with my former Celebrity Big Brother housemate Lucien Laviscount has gone viral on social media! ‘Lucien was very charming and obviously easy on the eye, and it was all just a bit of fun.’
STEVE ALCE (2012)
Kerry famously dated artist Steve Alce back in 2012 and said she was going to marry him just weeks into their relationship. After meeting at a glitzy sports dinner in, he moved into her Cheshire home just a couple of months later. But less than a year later the fast-moving romance was over. She sensationally dumped lover Steve because he was ‘too boring’. The reality star clashed with artist Steve and booted him out of her house branding him ‘too reliable and dull’. A friend told The People: Kerry was smitten at first, she loved that he wasn’t interested in all the celebrity glitz and glamour.’
DAN FODEN (2012)
Kerry couldn’t believe her luck when she bagged a date with hunky Take Me Out contestant Dan Foden that same year, but within weeks their relationship was over. She told a friend back then: ‘I can’t believe I’ve pulled him. He’s dead fit he’s gorgeous. He’s got plenty of money, and the best part is he has no kids and no ex-wife.’ But game show contestant Dan struggled with having his life in the public eye and hinted that their relationship was moving too fast.
GEORGE KAY (2012-2017)
It appeared that a change of fortune was on the cards for Kerry 2012, when she met George Kay, who at the time was working as her driver. Sparks flew between the pair, prompting former rugby player George to pop the question at the top of Blackpool Tower in April 2013. exactly one year later, more joy was brought into their home when Kerry gave birth to their daughter Dylan-Jorge. A trip down the aisle followed in September 2014, and it seemed that Kerry had finally found the elusive One. But trouble entered their relationship just two months after the wedding, when George was hospitalised after showing ‘signs of a stroke’, leaving Kerry struggling to cope. Her struggles in dealing with George’s behaviour led to the couple splitting, though they would eventually get back together and renew their wedding vows. However, things would eventually come to a complete end in 2017, amid accusations of domestic violence on George’s part. But the heartbreak didn’t end there, as in July 2019, George unexpectedly passed away aged 39.
JAMES ENGLISH (2017)
It took just weeks for the star to embark on a new relationship following her spit from George. Showing she was a woman of the times, Kerry went Instagram official with her handsome new boyfriend James English in 2017. And while the numerous posts of herself spending time with the Scottish comedian were shared on social media, the pair soon quietly went their separate ways within just two months. In fact, their split was so quiet that it wasn’t noticed until the star spoke about being a singleton once again.
RYAN MAHONEY (2018 – present)
Kerry met personal trainer Ryan in 2018 after they matched on the dating app Bumble. The pair briefly called it quits following a make-or-break trip to Thailand, but rekindled their romance in 2019.
After spending much of the Covid lockdown together, Ryan proposed to Kerry in 2021, and they’re still going strong with a wedding on the horizon.
