Kerry Katona says it was 'emotional' seeing her kids with ex-husband Brian McFadden

Kerry Katona has revealed that she felt "emotional" seeing her ex-husband Brian McFadden with their two daughters when they were reunited at a recent birthday party.

The family got together earlier this month to celebrate the birthday of Molly McFadden, 21, who is the eldest child of Kerry, 42, and former Westlife member Brian, also 42.

Footage from the party showed the exes - who also share daughter Lilly McFadden, 19 - dancing together with their eldest, Molly, alongside other guests during the night.

Speaking about the event, which was held in Ireland, Kerry explained that it was "amazing" and said she found it emotional seeing Lilly and Molly with their father Brian.

Writing about the experience in her latest column for New! magazine, she said: "The party was amazing. Everyone came together for Molly and that's what it was about.

"Me and Brian were reunited at the party and it was nice to see him. And I felt quite emotional seeing Lilly and Molly with their dad because I've never really seen it before."

Kerry - who was married to Brian from 2002 until 2006 - said that "it was lovely to watch" and added that the party for Molly's birthday had been a "brilliant night" for the family.

Kerry - who has since returned from Ireland following the special occasion - said in the column that she had a "brilliant time" celebrating her daughter Molly's birthday.

The former I'm a Celebrity star was accompanied by her younger daughters Lilly, Heidi Croft, 15, and Dylan-Jorge 'DJ' Kay, eight, on the trip to Dublin earlier this month.

The mother-of-five said that the family were "treated so well" on the visit, adding that Ireland is "like a second home" to her and has been a "massive part" of her life.

She had written about her eldest daughter in the post: "You're so beautiful, so kind, so loving with a wicked sense of humour and not forgetting how bloody talented you are."

The proud mum added: "Life won't always be easy my baby girl but I am with you every step of the bloody way. My heart is bursting with love and proudness."
