At just 13 years of age, the singer entered the care system and later stayed with four different foster families, due to her mum suffering with mental health.
She also spent time in three refuges and attended eight different schools.
At age 14, Kerry's mum gave her speed after telling her it was sherbet.
Speaking on a film shown on the Channel 4 shop, she said: "As a child, I moved round a lot. At the age of 13, I was put into foster care…
"I stayed in several foster homes and refuges but eventually I was taken in by an amazing couple, Mag and Fred. Mags sadly passed away six years ago, but I still remain really close to Fred."
Kerry met up with her foster father in an emotional reunion on the show where she remembered the first time that she entered her new home with them.
She said: "The first I came in here, I came in the kitchen and Mags said that I opened all the cupboards and I was like, ‘Oh my god you’ve got food in your cupboards.’ I was like, ‘Look at all the food in there!’"
Fred also recalled their first meeting and said his wife described Kerry to him as she said: "We’ve got a lovely girl here, but you can’t get a word in edgeways with her, but you’ll like her when you see her."
Kerry explained that she grew so close to Fred that she wanted him to give her away at her first wedding to father of her kids, Brian McFadden.
She added: "It’s people like Mag and Fred we need more of. I feel I’m lucky. I’m so blessed that I made it this far and that’s down to my foster parents.
"There are so many kids out there who haven’t got that and if there’s anybody out there who’s considering [fostering], you don’t understand what you can do to a child’s life."
