Kerry Katona has revealed she has split from her fiancé Ryan Mahoney after six years as she shared the news with her followers on Instagram.
The TV personality, 44, and the fitness trainer, 36, who endured a rocky romance, have gone their separate ways four years after getting engaged.
Kerry revealed the news in response to one of her Instagram followers, after she revealed she’d offered him a ‘free pass’ to have a baby with someone else.
Underneath a post sharing a health update about her mother, one person wrote: ‘so much love to you both and and is the Dr single?’
Confirming her newly-single status, Kerry wrote: ‘No but I am!’
Earlier this year, Kerry admitted she felt ‘unsupported’ by Ryan and had temporarily moved in with her mother, Sue, as cracks in their relationship began to show.

At the time, she said: ‘I want to say a massive thank you to my mum, who has been my rock during the last couple of weeks. I’ve been staying at hers and she’s really looked after me.’
‘If I’m honest, I’ve felt more lonely than ever during my recovery. Ryan was away getting a tattoo in London when I went into hospital and I haven’t seen him since my surgery over a week ago.
‘That upset me, because it made me feel unsupported and I could have done with the emotional support. I’m always the ‘strong mum’ in our house and this week I really wanted to be looked after and have him here, but I had my mum instead.’
However it seemed things between them had been patched up in July, where she addressed their turbulent relationship and admitted she ‘couldn’t be without him’.
Alongside a loved-up snap of the couple, Kerry wrote: ‘Another date might with my man. Honestly we’ve had our ups and downs but I wouldn’t want to be without this man. I love you! I know it’s soppy but I do.’
In February Kerry revealed her baby dream was over and admitted she had given Ryan ‘a free pass’ to have a baby with another woman.
Kerry explained: ‘I don’t want to deprive him in fact, I’ve given him a pass and said, “If this is something you want to pursue, leave me now!”
‘I never want someone to not have that feeling of having their own child. But I feel like I should be enough for a man.’

After making the claims, Kerry revealed she had a change of heart and did in fact want to have a sixth child. Kerry is a mum of five but shares no biological children with Ryan
She has daughters Molly, 22 and Lilly, 20 with her ex husband Brian McFadden who she was married to from 2002–2006.
She is also mum to Heidi, 17, and Max, 15, with ex husband Mark Croft and eight-year-old DJ from her relationship with the late George Kay.
Following a recent hospital scan, Kerry has explained how she was told by doctors that she can still carry a child which has prompted some conversations with Ryan about trying for a baby.
The Atomic Kitten star had been in hospital following a cancer scare and explained in her OK! Magazine column: ‘When I went for my scan last week and got the all-clear, I was told that I’ve still got follicles – meaning I could have another baby.’
‘I don’t think I would have another one, but Ryan keeps changing his mind! If he wants another one then that’s fine, but we need to get a move on.’
She added thought that she wouldn’t want to carry another child herself and would explore surrogacy after her difficult birth with youngest daughter DJ ‘traumatised’ her eldest children.
