Kerry Katona has opened up about the domestic abuse she has suffered in the past in her new book.
When she was married to her late husband George Kay, she revealed how she went through some very disturbing times.
During an exclusive chat, Kerry said: “George has psychosis and schizophrenia. When he had psychosis, he used to see monsters and have a knife and threaten to rape my mum and slash her up, he wasn’t stable, he wasn’t a well man.”

Further in her book, Kerry told fans: “George would fly off the handle over the most ridiculous things. And it left me so scared of him.

“One night I found the strength to kick him out, and hours later, when I was sleeping, he snuck back in and just watched me as I slept. How frightening is that?! Another time he threatened to rape and kill my mum during an argument. He was so, so messed up.”
In a later snippet of the book, she also repeated her point and said: “I would never ever stop my kids from seeing their dads. Not even Mark Croft. It’s just he’s not made an attempt.
“Brian still sees Molly and Lilly. So why would I have ever tried to stop George? I’ll tell you why F4J – because George was violent, he was controlling, he was scary. He threatened to rape my mum.”
George passed away from a drug overdose in July 2019 after years of harassing Kerry.
His controlling and abusive behaviour happened very early on in their relationship and the pattern repeated itself over and over for years.

The pair knew each other as teenagers but got together in 2012, and married two years later in 2014.
Kerry is now with her fiance Ryan Mahoney after they met on Bumble five years ago – which she coins as her first “stable” relationship.
The singer has five kids from previous relationships, Molly and Lilly-Sue from Westlife star Brian McFadden. Max and Heidi from second husband Mark Croft. And, Dylan-Jorge from her third husband George.
Kerry Katona: Whole Again, published by Mirror Books, is available from high street stores, supermarkets and Amazon now.
