Kerry Katona has had a tummy tuck after admitting her 'swollen belly' left her in tears.

The mum-of-five, 42, had a secret tummy tuck in 2021, which she said left her feeling 'lumpy' and 'swollen'.

However, she's now gone under the knife again - but says this time she's happy with the results.

“I’ve been waiting so long for this surgery after having my tummy tuck in 2021 with a different clinic," she explained.

"My body hasn’t been the same since. My stomach was all swollen and all the fat was stuck at the top – it shouldn’t be like that. It was all lumpy and uneven.

“It was my own fault because I didn’t allow time for my body to recover. I went straight back to work when I should have been resting," she told OK! magazine.

A tummy tuck is designed to improve the shape and appearance of the abdomen by making a large incision across the lower tummy to remove excess fat and skin.

In her memoir Kerry Katona : Whole Again, the Atomic Kitten star explained she didn't give her previous surgery time to heal in 2021 because she was moving house.

Admitting the procedure was the “worst thing” she’s ever done, Kerry said she wanted to have more surgery because she 'couldn't breathe'.

Writing in her new! column, she said: “I was lying down in bed and I felt like I couldn’t breathe. My throat and chest felt really tight, it was awful. I felt like I was going to die.

“My body has been swollen since I had surgery last year. My whole body is sore and puffy – my legs, my stomach, my face, my neck. I feel like I need popping.”

The former face of Iceland says her confidence took a huge hit following her first tummy tuck, saying she felt 'angry and frustrated' because she didn't recognise her own body.

Admitting she was always wearing baggy clothes, Kerry said she has been so self-conscious about her stomach, she's "been in tears over it".

However, the OnlyFans model - who is proud mum to Molly, 21, Lilly-Sue, 19, Heidi, 15, Max, 14, and Dylan-Jorge, eight and engaged to personal trainer Ryan Mahoney – says she’s focused on her goal of shedding 3st by her 43rd birthday in September.

Revealing she's signed up to the Francis diet - which encourages healthy eating while controlling calories - Kerry insisted she was determined to "look amazing".
