Kerry lashes out at pop flop Brian in 'love-cheat' storm
Eva Simpson & Caroline Hedley
SEETHING Kerry Katona has launched a savage attack on estranged husband Brian McFadden after claims that she cheated on him while they were married.
The former Westlifer lashed out in a Sunday newspaper, saying that Kerry was having an affair with old flame Dan Corsi during the two-and-a-half year marriage,
But yesterday pregnant Kerry, 25, hit back, spitting: "Maybe if he concentrated on his failing career and had a bit of success, he wouldn't need to keep attacking me to get publicity.
"The cheating is absolute nonsense. He knows it's not true and I know it's not true.
"There's only one person that cheated during our relationship. I mean, look at his stag do [when Brian was said to have bedded a lapdancer].
"It's very sad that he continues to feel the need to attack me but I'm not going to attack him."
Brian, who's now dating Delta Goodrem, had claimed: "I'd heard the rumours about her and Corsi for a long time but she always told me that nothing had been going on. "But, yes, it was true.
I'm still devastated. I can't believe what she did. It makes our whole marriage a sham."
I'm A Celebrity... winner Kerry - who's expecting her third child, with fiance Mark Croft, 34 - is battling alcohol and smoking addictions for the sake of her unborn baby.
However, she did enjoy a few Bucks Fizz cocktails during celebrations for her 26th birthday party, held a week early in Manchester's Belle Vue racetrack on Saturday - as you can see from our exclusive pictures. Kerry was also caught puffing on a cigarette in Marbella last month.
Yesterday her spokesman Max Clifford confirmed: "Kerry had two Bucks Fizz on the night and she had a great time. But she has cut back on her drink."
The troubled ex-Atomic Kitten star is expected to reveal her drug and drink binges in her autobiography Too Much Too Young.
She claims: "Drugs and booze provided a mask to hide behind. I could pretend to be the old, happy-go-lucky Kerry who everybody loved.
For a few hours, I did feel better. But the pressure had become so bad I lost the plot."
Kerry is now worried about the effects Brian's latest remarks will have on their two daughters Molly, four and three-year-old Lilly Sue.
She went on: "I hope Brain gets success soon, so he can stop attacking me. All I've ever wanted was for him and Delta to be happy and for me to be happy with Mark.
"And for the sake of the kids I wish that he wanted that as well." Let's hope so...
