Kerry Katona to undergo surgery after botched tummy tuck left her without a belly button

Kerry Katona has revealed she will have corrective surgery following a botched tummy tuck that left her without a belly button.

The former Atomic Kitten star plans to have the procedure next year after admitting putting on two and a half stone recently.

Although she is still raking in a whopping £600,000 a month on OnlyFans, Kerry says her new size 14 figure has left her feeling ‘miserable’.

She also shared her body had become ‘swollen’ after she stopped using the controversial SkinnyJab injection and exercising.

The mum-of-five plans to have the corrective procedure in January, but until then joked having some extra insulation will help keep her rising energy bills down.

In a chat with Closer magazine, Kerry shared: “I had a tummy tuck and they took away my belly button and left a horrible bit that pops out the top. I never asked for any of that.

“My stomach looks so swollen now. It’s a mess. I’m like a f***ing flatpack from IKEA. They just need to put me back together again.”

Kerry has a history of yo-yo dieting and has gone from a size 16 to a size 6 in recent years.

She is also no stranger to going under the surgeon’s knife and candidly admits to having work done.

She had her first boob job in 2004 and hit the headlines four years later after splashing out on £15,000 worth of surgery - just four months after giving birth to son Max, who is now 14.

Since then Kerry has had around three liposuction procedures, a non-surgical tightening of her tummy and bum, plus Botox and fillers in her cheeks and lips.

Following a ‘full body MOT’ last year, the former singer revealed she had also had a breast reduction.

Comparing herself to the ‘Honey Monster’, the star said felt like the mascot from the Sugar Puff advertisements and explained how her breasts had been giving her back ache.

Despite earning £1million posting racy snaps in her underwear to paying OnlyFans subscribers, Kerry said she “cried” every day when she looked in the mirror.

At one point she said her breasts were “bigger than my head” - and was convinced they were getting bigger.

After going from a DD to a C cup, she joked she was now part of the 'itty bitty t***y club'.

After having the op, her second eldest daughter, Lilly-Sue, even sent her a card congratulating her on becoming an official member of the “itty bitty t*tty community”.

The card – addressed to Kerry Jane Elizabeth Katona – read: “This is your official acceptance letter to the itty bitty t*tty community.

“You’re probably our first member who not only chose to join, but paid!"
