Kerry Katona has shared a horrific threat George Kay reportedly made towards their young daughter.
The former Atomic Kitten star, 42, married rugby player Kay in 2014 and welcomed daughter Dylan-Jorge with him, but announced their separation 12 months later.
Katona has spoken before about the horrific abuse she endured while married to Kay, who died in 2019 from a drug overdose, and has now revealed a horrifying threat to their daughter, who was just five years old when he died.
The mum-of-five, who also has Molly, 21, Lily-Sue, 19, Heidi, 16 and Max, 14, admitted she still feels ‘scared’ when she talks about her ex-husband, as well as feeling angry that he died rather than having to face the consequences of what he did.
She told the Matt Haycox Show: ‘I still get scared talking about George. And I’m so angry that he died and just left.’
‘He wanted to kidnap DJ, inject her with heroin and then kill her. And then kill himself.’
Katona said Kay would punch her and spit in her face, and that their daughter began copying him by spitting in her mother’s face.
‘She didn’t know any different,’ Katona said, before adding she would ‘never forgive herself’ for putting her children into a situation where they were seeing the violence.
‘They never witnessed anything… but they say the black eyes. It’s something I’m struggling to forgive myself for, bringing him into their lives.
‘Because of the trauma he’s caused to them as well.’
Katona opened up about the abuse she faced in 2022 memoir Kerry Katona: Whole Again, where she wrote that even when pregnant with their daughter, Kay would ‘push me over, kick me and spit in my face.’
‘Soon after he’d apologise, tell me how much he loved me and gently let me know it was all my fault because I pushed his buttons. And then I’d be the one apologising.’
Kay died in 2019, after the Rugby League player reportedly ate ‘a ball of cocaine’ at a Holiday Inn in Cheshire.
She is currently engaged to fiance Ryan Mahoney, a personal trainer, with the pair meeting five years ago on dating app Bumble.
