Kerry Katona has opened up about a health condition that she has been struggling with since she parted ways with her fiancé Ryan Mahoney back in November 2024
Kerry Katona has been battling a health issue.
The reality star has opened up about her health struggles following her break up with fiancé Ryan Mahoney – the 44-year-old former Atomic Kitten singer split from personal trainer Ryan, 36, in November 2024 after six years together, reports the Mirror.
Kerry confessed that the emotional turmoil left her “exhausted” and has impacted her health while keeping herself occupied with demanding stage performances in a Cinderella pantomime while dealing with alopecia.
The mother-of-five was performing up to three shows a day during her Christmas panto period when she noticed her hair falling out and told Daily Mail: “It was heartbreak, it was exhausting. I also got alopecia. It was really stressful.”
She disclosed that her hair hasn’t started to regrow yet and is “still bald,” revealing that her hair loss is limited to the scalp but she is remaining optimistic about the situation.
“It’s only hair, it will grow back. I wear tape extensions because it all started falling out.”
Back in 2021, Kerry revealed that her hair had begun to fall out due to her hair extensions, stating she “hated” how “fine and wispy” her blonde locks had become and attributing it to “years and years of putting extensions after extensions in my hair”.
In an attempt to move on from her split with Ryan Kerry has started dating again and has grown close to personal trainer Paolo Margaglione after she signed up to Celebs Go Dating.
A source told the Mirror: “Kerry is being very cautious with this romance. She has been very wary about going public with Paolo and it impacting their relationship.”
