Inside Kerry Katona's new £2m Cheshire mansion

Kerry Katona got emotional on Thursday as she gave fans a glimpse at her new £2million Cheshire mansion on Instagram and celebrated starting a 'new chapter' in her life.  

The Atomic Kitten star, 40, praised herself and fiancé Ryan Mahoney for working 'really hard to turn it all around' as she admitted she was feeling 'really overwhelmed' over the milestone.  

Kerry's stunning new mansion features several luxury details such as a walk-in wardrobe, wooden beams, a state-of-the-art kitchen, glass staircases, feature windows and a sprawling garden. 

The TV personality, who is originally from Warrington, revealed in April that she had purchased a new home with her fiancé Ryan 13 years 'after losing everything'. The Sun reported at the time it cost £2million and has an impressive six bedrooms. 

Kerry took to Instagram on Thursday to give a brief video tour of her new home as she fought back tears and said: 'So proud of myself! Not ashamed to say it!'

The mother-of-five started her video with: 'So I woke up in my new house today, I want to give you a little bit of a sneak peek. That's just the kitchen. I know right? I can't believe it. I honest to God just can't believe it.'

Kerry then gave a video tour as she explained: 'Beautiful gardens. It's a new chapter guys, a new chapter of... and it's quite upsetting. 

'Crowborough [her former home] was the last place I had with George [Kay - her late ex-husband], closing the door on that. This is a new chapter, I feel really overwhelmed...' 

Kerry continued: 'The last time I lived here [Cheshire] I was doing loads of coke, loads of medication, lost all my money, surrounded by a bunch of d*******s who were just using and abusing me. Not only have I climbed halfway up, I've climbed all the way up to the top.

'Who'd have thought I'd have made it through? If you were to put a bet at the bookies if I was going to end up dead, I would have took that bet. But now I'm here...' 

Kerry has previously revealed she started taking drugs aged 14 and openly spoke about her bipolar disorder and addiction issues in the past. She checked herself into rehab in 2008 and 2010.

The sober star's troubled times are now behind her and she said that she was looking forward to her five children - Molly, 19, Lilly-Sue, 18, who she shares with ex-husband Brian McFadden, Heidi, 14, Maxwell, 13, with ex Mark Croft, 49, and Dylan-Jorge, seven, whose father George tragically passed away in 2019, seeing the home. 

Kerry continued: 'I can't wait for the rest of the family to get here. Just leaving Crowborough [old house] was bitter sweet really.

'They are my last memories with George and DJ. It upsets me because DJ was only five. Look how far we've come. She's a great kid and she's going to have a wonderful life.' 

Ending her video, the reality star praised her fiancé Ryan, she said: 'None of this, I wouldn't have been able to do any of this without my Ryan. He's just been... amazing. He really has.

'If anyone's hating on me, f**k you all, I deserve this and I've worked really hard to turn this all around. I did it. Me and Ryan are entrepreneurs and we've been creating this little empire of ours and I'm so super proud. So so super proud. Ryan has just been the best thing I've ever swiped for or dated in my life.'
