Kerry Katona has shared a health update with fans while sporting a colourful new hairstyle.
The singer, 42, took to social media to reveal that she had organised a voluntary cat scan to determine whether she is high risk for suffering a heart attack.
While having a heart attack may seem unlikely for someone as young as Kerry, recent research has revealed more women under 50 are experiencing the health emergency.
Posting a short video on Instagram, the Atomic Kitten star explained that the condition runs in the female members of her family.
As her mum Sue, 62, 'has not long ago had a heart attack,' Kerry decided to book in to see if she was at high risk of having one herself, she explained in the caption, reports Manchester Evening News.
She also showed off her freshly-dyed pink hair in the update, prefacing the video by asking fans their thoughts on it. On her health, Kerry explained: "For those of you who don't know, my mum had a heart attack a couple of months ago.
"My grandad had a heart attack and my nan had a heart attack and I'm worried that I'm at high risk of having a heart attack.
"And I have health anxiety anyway, I'm a nightmare for it. So I have come to Pall Mall medical centre and I'm going to get myself a CT scan."
She added: "I wasn't aware that it was available for people... and then I found out it was. I booked myself in because I know there's people out there who suffer with this, not knowing.
"This is really good, it's going to prevent whether I'm at high risk of having a heart attack. I used to smoke a hell of a lot, I don't smoke anymore.
"I'm really trying my best to be fit and healthy, so you might think I'm crazy but I've booked myself in and I'll let you all know how it goes".
Fans flocked to show their support, with many commenting on Kerry's new hair colour. Instagram user @clarewilks74 posted a string of red heart emojis and added: "love the pink hair. Hope you get on with your CT scan. Keep us posted" while @mccauley666x said: "Wow… amazing colour, really suits you," with a thumbs up emoji.
"Your hair is absolutely gorgeous xxx," commented @lorna_thomson_1982 with a heart-eye emoji as @breeze_elizabeth penned: "Gorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgeous Hair. Love it Kerry. Hope the Scan goes Well for you. Love ya".
@jim.tomlinson.52 added: "You look amazing. Love the hair" and @braids_by_nikita_belfast said: "You really suit that its beautiful @kerrykatona7".
In April, Kerry spoke out after her beloved mum Sue had been taken to hospital after suffering a heart attack. She reassured fans her mum was on the mend, but said she was determined to help improve her lifestyle.
