KERRY Katona compared herself to a whale after being pictured on the beach in Marbella - but vowed never to hide her body.

She said: "I was like, ‘Oh my God, is that a whale? No! It was Kerry!’. It’s alright though. It’s all good. I’ve got a big bum. But can you see? It’s like my body’s swollen. It’s like you need to get a pin and go ‘pop’."
When a fan suggested she should embrace her body no matter what, Kerry replied: "I am embracing my body! I am very open and honest with my kids.
"I’ve had surgery. Why lie to them? But I’m a 41 year old woman. I’m entitled to do what I want to do after having five kids. And I’m very open and honest with my kids and hopefully everything that I’ve had done will put them off for life! But I'm not going to hide away what I’ve done!
"Yes, I look huge. It’s not healthy, it’s not good. I need to get in the gym when I get home. I’ve definitely got body issues. I love my food. I think that’s the problem. I love it so much. So there we go. My body’s just swollen. It is what it is, isn’t it people?"

"And not a divorce in sight! Love you all the world!"

They share daughters Lilly-Sue, 19, and 20-year-old Molly.
Less than a year after her divorce from Brian was finalised, Kerry married taxi driver Mark Croft in February 2007.
They are parents to Heidi, 15, and 13-year-old Max, and divorced in 2011.
