Former Atomic Kitten singer Kerry Katona has managed to bag herself a new job presenting on popular lunchtime show Steph’s Packed Lunch.
The mum-of-five will join Steph McGovern on her entertainment and lifestyle series to host a number of segments, where she’ll cover a whole range of topics important to her.
The 41-year-old picks up the mantle from her good pal Katie Price , who appeared on a fair few episodes of the Channel 4 daytime offering this year.
Speaking to the Sun, Steph revealed it doesn’t look as if the former glamour model will be making a return any time soon.

But the English journalist and presenter also wanted to make it clear that she and the rest of the show’s crew still get on really well with Katie.
In the interview, Steph was asked if she’d been there from Katie, but the former BBC Watchdog presenter confessed the pair aren’t all that close outside of work. .
“I don’t have her number or anything like that. I just know her from the show”.

Kerry’s joining Steph’s Packed Lunch is no mere rumour though, with Channel 4 recently confirming the move is definitely going ahead.
The Warrington-born star has now put addiction and bankruptcy behind her, going on to carve out a successful career in business.
She recently revealed she was only able to get her life in order after her ex-husband George died of a drug overdose back in 2019.

And it looks like Steph’s Packed Lunch will offer Kerry a well-deserved big break.
She has already started to film some of her upcoming segments, with a TV insider telling the Sun: “It’s a really big deal for Kerry.
“She’s excited to be back on TV and follow in the footsteps of her best mate Katie.”
