It was another emotional night in the Celebs Go Dating agency, and this time it was Kerry Katona who opened up about her split from fiancé Ryan Mahoney.

Kerry joined relationship expert Anna Williamson alongside sexpert Dr Tara Suwinyattichaiporn to talk through her previous relationships. As Dr Tara wasn’t familiar with Kerry, the former Atomic Kitten star recalled her whole relationship history – starting with the breakdown of her marriage with Brian McFadden.

However, it was Kerry’s recent breakup with Ryan that moved her to tears. The pair were engaged in 2020 and split in late 2024 after she cited a “breach of trust”. It comes after Kerry Katona reveals devastating her health condition after split from ex-fiancé.

Explaining in detail why the pair decided to call it quits, Kerry said: “We were arguing quite a lot because he wasn’t there for me emotionally and that used to get to me. It’s the little things, just the little things that I want – I don’t want diamond rings,” as relationship coach Anna agreed.

“So I kicked off, ‘That’s it, we’re done’, and he said, ‘Look, I just don’t know if I love you anymore,” the mum of five revealed. Clarifying, Anna asked: “He said doesn’t think he loved you?”

“He said to me he doesn’t think he loves me anymore, he doesn’t know what he wants,” Kerry confirmed. “I was devastated.” A shocked Dr Tara then told Kerry it seemed like she had gone through “10 lifetimes of trauma”.

“But I’m really proud of myself because I got through it,” the star responded. Expanding even further to the camera, Kerry announced: “It’s all well and good being resilient, but it makes me quite sad that I’ve had to be so resilient.”

As the camera panned back to Kerry, Anna and Dr Tara in Ibiza, the star broke down in tears as she revealed: “I’ve never had anyone to look after me. I’ve had to be my own hero which I’m really proud of. But yeah, I struggle with that.”

However, it looks like it was second time lucky at the agency for Kerry as she appears to have found love in the agency this time around. Kerry struck up a connection with Paolo Margaglione while on the hit E4 show, and now, it looks like the pair have taken the next step in their relationship.

A source told The Sun : “Paolo is already living in Kerry’s home – they’re together 24/7 so it just made sense for him to move in. Things are going really well between them!”

While filming for the series, Dr Tara told the Mirror that we can expect to see Kerry ‘tell all’ about her former relationship.

“Lovely Kerry has an amazing story. People will really get to hear what has been happening since she last joined the agency. A lot has happened since she last joined,” she said.

“She really is able to use our agency as a platform to tell us what truly happened and her narrative. She has had a very traumatic life but is in a very good place now to move forward with romance and dating.”
