Meanwhile, Kerry recently opened up about her plans to start a new life in London with partner Ryan Mahoney and her children after previously considering a move overseas to Spain. Writing in her New magazine column, she said: "I'm feeling a bit conflicted right now about our move. The plan was to move to Spain in July but I've been working so much in London recently that it's difficult to know what to do. I'm barely ever at home in Cheshire because of travelling down south. It makes me wonder if we should be relocating to London rather than Spain." Kerry currently lives in a £2 million Cheshire mansion.
Shed added: "It's frustrating when you have a nice home and never in it. But DJ loves school and doesn't want to leave, so that makes me feel guilty. We're undecided at the moment." Kerry has five children from previous relationships, Molly Marie McFadden, 22, Lilly-Sue McFadden, 21, Heidi Croft, 16, Maxwell Croft, 14, and Dylan-Jorge Kay, nine.
