Kerry expressed that former rugby league player, George, who died at 39 after a drug overdose in 2019, still has a “hold on” the reality star, “even in death”.
Kerry and George tied the knot in 2014. However, their relationship quickly made headlines after Kerry made several abuse allegations.

In her new book, Kerry Katona: Whole Again – Love, Life and Me: My Story, she shared that after her ex died, she confessed one of George’s friends’ paid her a visit to tell the star how she had done the right thing in keeping him away from daughter DJ.
The Atomic Kitten star added: “It’s been really hard, my anxiety has been through the roof. I’ve been stuck in the past, feeling full of anxiety and fear.
“I still stand by my decision to stop him from seeing DJ and I know I made the right decision. I would stand on his grave and say it.”

The mum-of-five accused him of being violent and abusive during their marriage, and they split up after 12 months.
Kerry claimed her late ex would spit on her, strangle her and hit her while she was pregnant with baby DJ before he’d tell the former Atomic Kitten singer it was her fault he was abusive towards her.
She confessed: “He was so vile to me. I’m telling you now if George was still alive and I’d have stayed with him. I’d be dead. I would not be here today.”

Eventually, a restraining order was in place, keeping George away from Kerry at the time of his death.
In addition to daughter DJ, the star is also mum to Molly, 21, and Lilly, 19, who she shares with Brian McFadden, and Heidi, 15, and Max, 14, from her marriage to Mark Croft.
Kerry is currently engaged to fiancé Ryan Mahoney.
