Kerry Katona signs six-figure deal for new autobiography as she opens up on tragic death of ex and OnlyFans fame
KERRY Katona has landed a huge six figure pay day for her first autobiography in ten years.
The powerful tell-all, titled Whole Again: My Story, will be the first time the mum of five, 41, has fully opened up about her rollercoaster last decade - including the devastating loss of her ex George Kay and rebuilding her life after bankruptcy.
She’ll also lift the lid on how she became a millionaire again, her decision to join saucy site OnlyFans and how she found love again with current fiance Ryan Mahoney.
There’s even some juicy tales about her reuniting with Atomic Kitten to boot.
A source told The Sun: “This is set to be one of the most anticipated celebrity autobiographies in a long time. It’s a story of real highs and lows.
"There will be lots of shocking and surprising details in there that Kerry has never revealed before, but it’s also got a very empowering message about coming back from the brink to be stronger than ever.”

Kerry has released two previous autobiographies, Too Much Too Young in 2007 and Still Standing in 2013, both of which were bestsellers.
But her upcoming memoir will be something of a twist on the genre.
“The book is part autobiography and part self-help book,” says our insider. “Kerry felt like now was the right time to tell the next chapter of her story but she also wanted it to give advice for anyone else who is struggling.
“Kerry’s message is that if she can turn her life around and get back on top after being at rock bottom, so can anyone.”

The source reveals that the book was very emotional for Kerry to write, especially when it came to addressing the death of her daughter DJ’s dad George from a drug overdose in 2019.
“It was a painful time for Kerry to revisit, and she also wanted to handle it sensitively in the book as George is the father of one of her children,” the insider says. “In the end, it actually proved very cathartic for her, it felt like therapy.”
The tell-all will hit the shops in the autumn, just in time to get a boost from the lucrative Christmas shopping market.
The publishers are really confident they’ve got a big hit on their hands and are expecting it to fly off the shelves.
A rep for Kerry declined to comment.
