Kerry Katona has said she feels "absolutely violated" after her Range Rover was stolen with all her Christmas presents in the back.

The former Atomic Kitten star posted a video on Instagram saying that her blue car had been taken from right out under her nose as she hit the stores at Elk Mill Shopping Park in Oldham.

The tearful star told fans to be on the look out for the Range Rover, which contained presents she'd bought, her children's iPads and a Louis Vuitton bag.

"Absolute b******* who have done it, we come to do some shopping with the children and they have took the car," she cried.

"We rang the police, I'm stranded. The lovely people in this shop are being so nice."

Katona, 41, then turns to someone off camera and says: "Did you see me run after him? What was I going to do? I just chased him. I didn't know what to do, I just ran and ran and ran and ran."

The mum-of-five urged anyone who spots the car to report it to the police.

"It's an SVR, it's blue with a reg plate of KA17ONA," she said.

"It's got Christmas presents in the back. It's just a car at the end of the day but I'm really angry. The children's iPads are in the back."

The singer later posted another video on Instagram saying that she and her children were fine but shaken up by the "horrible" experience.

She also said she'd been "completely and utterly targeted" and that she had been told "they had been eyeing my car up" outside her hotel.

"I feel absolutely violated," said Katona, fighting to hold back tears. "I just want to go home."

She went on: "We were just shopping in JD, I walked out and I saw my engine start and my key was in my pocket. And I left the kids and I just chased them and chased them all the way to the top.
