Kerry Katona insisted she wasn't bragging when she showed off her new lime green £170,000 Lamborghini.
The former of face of Iceland, 41, took delivery of the sports car today, telling fans she was "so proud" of her and fiancé Ryan Mahoney for making the purchase.
Explaining anyone can achieve anything if they work "b****y hard", Kerry pre-empted fans' reactions.
"This isn't about bragging," she stated. "You've all seen my story. You've all seen my at my lowest, where I could have died, I should have died.
"I took loads of drugs...I can't believe I'm alive.
"At the start of the pandemic, I thought 'how am I going to feed me kids', just like everybody else."
Having declared her herself bankrupt twice, Kerry joined racy content site Only Fans this year and is said to be doing very nicely from the proceeds.
Clapping back at those who say she's being paid to take her clothes off, she said: "You can talk about taking clothes off, but I couldn't give a flying f**k – look what's on my drive."
Listing all her gigs, including a magazine column and clothing range, the mum-of-five said she'd "worked her a**e off".
She then teased she had a "huge announcement" to make tomorrow.
However, seemingly concerned about the bragging claims, Kerry then wanted to point out she never posts pics of the other car she owns, revealing she remembers what it's like to stay in a refuge when she was nine.
"We had no Christmas presents, no furniture, but then the refuge dropped off a bag of second-hand stuff and I was eternally grateful," she said.
"Now look what we've received."
At this point in the video Kerry tells Ryan to "start the bad boy up" before the personal trainer drops her off to get her nails done.
Writing in the lengthy post with the caption, Kerry added: "Believe in yourself and be your own hero," the Atomic Kitten star received many well wishes from her followers.
One said: "So you should be proud! I love how you get back up again if you fall. You deserve it all!"
While another insisted: "Kerry you deserve to brag from the top of a mountain. You have hit rock bottom became bankrupt and look we’re you are today.
"Be proud of bouncing back and achieving goals. Keep smiling and enjoy life with Ryan & the kids and ignore the negative comments."
However, another follower wasn't quite as enthusiastic, stating: "I'm sorry Kerry, but you and your man have no idea what hard work is."
