Former ITV star Kerry Katona and her fiance Ryan Mahoney have been together for five years. While she describes it as her first normal romance, she is not in a rush to become a wife. But when it happens, it will be a sweet ceremony in Las Vegas.
Kerry Katona is very familiar with the term “wife.” At 42, she has jumped the broom three times with three different men. Her first marriage to Brian McFadden ended in divorce, but she became a mother to two kids.
During her second attempt, Katona fell in love with a former taxi driver, Mark Croft. Like her first, this was not destined to last. While McFadden spat on marriage vows by being unfaithful, Croft spent her money lavishly. They also welcomed two kids.
The third time might have seemed like a charm with George Kay, her driver. After their wedding, they had a daughter, DJ. Following claims of violence, Katona announced their split.
They reunited and while trying to make things work, hit rock bottom again. Before another attempt of saving their romance, Kay died.
Despite the divorces and unfortunately a death, her belief in happy-ever-after continued to burn brightly. She resolved to find love on the internet. Surprisingly, it became the best love story ever.
Kerry Katona and Ryan Mahoney clicked on Bumble, before meeting each other. She realized her leading man was genuinely into the romance and not after her fame.
“I was faking it for so long, but with Ryan, I don’t have to prove anything. It’s so nice to be with someone who doesn’t care about fame,” she mused.

Kerry Katona’s Fiancé Proposes Three Years After They Met On Bumble
Three years into the relationship, Mahoney went on one knee. First, he sought blessings from her kids, Molly, Lilly-Sue, Heidi, Max, and Dylan-Jorge. Then he took beau on a trip to Spain.
Kerry Katona’s fiance shared that he settled into befriending the kids almost seamlessly. So getting their yes was as easy as pie.
The actress agreed that Mahoney has been all she ever hoped for. She compared their romance to her past relationships, claiming it’s just perfect. Katona hoped to have a marriage other than a wedding, as she has had that three times.
Kerry Katona and Ryan Mahoney Will Marry In Las Vegas Even Though She Is Scared
Through the years, Katona has been vocal about her fourth shot at love. Recently, after appearing on “GB News,” she confessed her determination for a wedding.
Katona desires for her youngest daughter, DJ, to have a father. DJ lost her dad, Kay in 2019. With her mom’s marriage, Mahoney would be her adoptive dad.
She added:
“But also, if anything was to happen to me, I want to make sure that security is there for my children to remain with Ryan, and by being married, that all helps.”
Amid her consideration for security and undying love for Mahoney, Katona is scared of the commitment. She noted that her past is “abysmal,” citing the numerous heartbreaks and excesses from her exes.
There are times she feels terrified to marry Mahoney, and other days, love is in the air. But above all else, Katona would not let go of this beautiful love saga. She assured fans that wedding bells will sound soon. But the ceremony will be held in Las Vegas!
