Kerry Katona Confirms That She Is Divorcing George Kay

Poor Kerry Katona.

The 35-year-old Atomic Kitten star has announced that she is sadly divorcing husband, George Kay, after eleven months together.

The news comes shortly after it was claimed that George was arrested for allegedly assaulting Kerry and possessing a taser gun.

Speaking in a statement, the mum-of-five’s spokesperson confirmed: “It is with deep sadness that Kerry announces the end of her marriage to George Kay.

“Her focus now will be on her gorgeous children.”

It was reported that Kerry had “sustained bruising to her face and arms” during an altercation with George at their East Sussex home on Saturday, with Sussex police revealing: “On Saturday police were called to an address in Crowborough after a report that a woman had been assaulted.

“A 35-year-old man was arrested at the address on suspicion of causing actual bodily harm to a 35-year old woman, and of unlawful possession of a Taser.”

Neighbours are said to have reported the incident after hearing raised voices at the couple’s home, with George being released on bail until October 24th.

This isn’t the first time that Kerry and George have faced rocky patches in their relationship, with the singer throwing him out following a whole load of rows. However, she took him back as the couple fought to save their marriage with counselling.

Mum to fourteen-year-old Molly, twelve-year-old Lilly-Sue, eight-year-old Heidi, seven-year-old Max, and seventeen-month-old Dylan-Jorge, Kerry has not acknowledged the split on her social media channels - instead sharing a whole load of cute family pics of her kids.

We just hope that Kerry, George, and the kids are all okay at this sad time.
