Kerry Katona ‘nervous’ as she ‘removes rib’ to put in nose for urgent surgery

Kerry Katona has disclosed that she will be using a piece of her rib for another nose job as she unveils more surgery plans.

The 43-year-old former Atomic Kitten star previously revealed she was heading to Pall Mall for the reconstructive surgery. Her nose job comes due to past cocaine abuse in her 20s.

Hopping on to Instagram, she told fans: “I’m very excited but I’m very, very nervous because I am now off to go and get my nose fixed, to get my nose operation at Pall Mall. I’ll keep you posted and updated.

“As you all know I did a lot of drugs way back in the day, been clean for a million and one years now, and I have a hole in the centre of my nose. I’m always sniffing for good reasons, and I find it really embarrassing because mud sticks. If I’m out and about and slightly sniffing, I always think people think, ‘Oh god she’s back on the gear,’ which I’m not because I don’t even drink anymore.”

The TV personality explained that they were “taking a piece of bone from her rib” which would then be used to replace her nose cartilage “to make it look a bit smaller”. Kerry also highlighted her urgent need for the surgery as she had “three holes” inside her nose due to her past cocaine abuse.

She was seen at the Pall Mall Medical, an upscale clinic based in Central London. Looking hopeful and excited ahead of the procedure, she took a selfie with one of the surgeons.

Kerry has previously confessed that cocaine used to be her “only friend” as she discussed her past drug abuse. The star, who began taking drugs at 14, has been open about her bipolar disorder and addiction issues in the past.

Having checked herself into rehab in 2008 and 2010, she revealed on the MailOnline podcast that she hasn’t had cocaine in years. Speaking to hosts Josh Pieters and Archie Manners, Kerry stated: “I haven’t touched cocaine in 15 years.”

When questioned about whether she has quit alcohol and drugs, she responded: “No I love a drink, but coke was more my poison and plus I married my drug dealer because I thought I would get it a bit cheaper.

“I wouldn’t say it was addiction it was more of a co-dependency. This was at a time where I would have 40 paps outside my house, my mum was selling stories on me and I was married to a drug dealer.”
