Former Atomic Kitten star Kerry Katona is going under the knife again, removing part of her rib to fix her collapsed nose.
The 43-year-old has been open with fans regarding her previous cocaine addiction in the past. Kerry revealed that when she was married to her husband Mark Croft, their relationship was fuelled by their drug addiction and she previously admitted that their relationship was “about coke”.
But now, the mother-of-five, who recently had an eye lift, is preparing to fix the damages that were caused after a surgeon noticed that her nose needed attention. Kerry’s procedure will involve the removal of a section of her rib to correct the damage to her nose, and doctors have warned her that without this procedure, her nose could collapse.

She told fans in her OK! column: “I’m waiting for a date from Pall Mall for the reconstructive surgery I need for my nose, due to past cocaine abuse. They’re going to use a piece of bone from my rib to repair it, hopefully, that will be any day now.”
The star also added: “My past will always come up, but I wouldn’t change it, as it made me who I am today.” Kerry also headed over to Instagram to discuss her upcoming op and the conversation she had with her surgeon who offered to fix her nose.
She said: “We’re all very aware that I’ve done drugs in the past years ago, 15 years ago now. And he said to me ‘have you had a nose job?’
“And he went ‘your nose is collapsing’ and I was like, ‘oh my God’. So I have damaged my nose from doing drugs.
“I did get offered to have it fixed years ago and I said no, I don’t want it fixed because for me it was a reminder never to touch it again. And he said ‘would you like us to fix it for you?’
“I started crying! It’s like a massive 360 of where I was to where I am now!”
She also said: “So obviously I don’t do drugs any more, I’ve turned my life round and I’m very very proud of myself. We all make mistakes, you know, and I think this is a reward just to me to get it fixed, but I’m scared.
