Kerry Katona found love with new man Paolo Margaglione – and has exclusively revealed she’d be open to having a baby with him and becoming a mum of six
Kerry Katona has opened up about welcoming a new baby into her family and said that her kids would be happy for her if she decided to have another baby with her boyfriend, who is 10 years younger. While discussing her relationship with new boyfriend Paolo Margaglione, whom she met on Celebs Go Dating this summer, Kerry gushed over how ‘smooth’ her relationship has been.
Kerry made the admission as she gave her opinion on Jamie Redknapp having another baby with his new wife, Frida, and how his eldest son, from a previous relationship, wasn’t best pleased. While Kerry said she ‘understands’ that it can be difficult when you ‘have children with new partners’, she is ‘lucky’ as her kids would be ‘happy’ for her to have a baby with Paolo.
Kerry said: “Jamie Redknapp said last week that his eldest son wasn’t a bit happy when he told him he was going to have a baby with his now-wife, Frida. I completely understand how hard it can be when you have children with new partners and try to blend them into the family. But it seems like everything has worked out for them now. I’m quite lucky in that respect with my family.”

She added in her weekly column with new! magazine: “Everything has gone so smoothly with me and Paolo. I’m definitely open to having more kids – and I know my children would be happy for me, if that was the case.”
It follows after Kerry opened up on her new ‘blended family’, sharing how their children have bonded instantly. Kerry says things are going “perfectly” so far as they spend more time together, in between her ongoing tour with Katie Price.
She said last week: “This week I’ve been super busy touring, but I did have a day with Paolo and the kids, my lot and his two girls, which was lovely. I love spending time with his girls; it’s such a nice feeling to have little ones around again. We’ve blended our families together seamlessly, and everything fits into place perfectly”.
The Atomic Kitten star has been up and down the country with her best mate Katie Price, as they spill all on their lives in the spotlight with the show ‘An Evening with Katie & Kerry’. While the pair appear to be having a blast for the most part, at a recent gig in Shrewsbury, things didn’t go as planned as Kerry later revealed how she had a ‘severe panic attack’ and was forced to leave the stage.
She said: “Last night on stage, I had a horrid, horrid, severe panic attack. Full-on blown panic attack. I was so embarrassed. I was sat there and the topic was our childhood and, I don’t know where it came from but I was sat there and everything just went dead quiet.
“I was looking at Kate and Matt the host, and everything went really fuzzy, my heart was going so fast, I thought I’m gonna cry, I’m gonna faint.”
Kerry added: “I thought, ‘I’ve gotta get off the stage’. I had to stand up and walk off stage, and I think everyone thought I had got up and walked off because I got a bit too emotional, but that wasn’t the case.”
The mum-of-four explained how she normally would take pictures with fans after her show, but had to rush into her car and drive home. Kerry was flooded with support from her understanding fans.
One said: “Wishing you well Kerry. You are a brave lady and by talking about your experiences will help so many.” Another added: “Big love Kerry I have panic attacks and they are not nice and can hit you at any time, even when ur feeling ok and like your doing well.”
