Kerry Katona looked a world away from her many troubles as she holidays in Tenerife with her four children.
She’s just been axed from Iceland, her marriage is on the rocks and her image is in tatters following an alleged drugs scandal and recent photos, but resilient Kerry looked like she didn’t have a care in the world.
Wearing a pink and orange bikini, Kerry screamed in delight as she brought her youngest daughter Heidi, two, on a water slide in the Canary Islands.
The troubled reality star fled to the Spanish island on Sunday after the News of the World published photos of Kerry appearing to snort cocaine at her £1.25million home in Wilmslow, Cheshire.
Despite her dramatic drop in income after losing her £250,000 deal as the face of Iceland supermarkets, the 28-year-old decided to jet off to jet off to Tenerife for a family holiday.
Slip up: Kerry’s skimpy bikini is unable to contain her ample frame
Wearing a pink and orange bikini, Kerry spent the day at a water park soaking up the 28 degrees sunshine with Heidi, Molly, seven; Lilly Sue, six; and Maxwell, 16 months.
Notably absent was her husband Mark Croft, who split from Kerry last month, although the couple are said to have reconciled again.
While Kerry was over 2,000 miles away, her nanny Gemma was visited by two plain-clothed police officers at the family home on Tuesday.
Kerry’s spokesman denied the alleged drug scandal had anything to do with the visit, insisting they were asking Gemma if she had been harassed by any of the paparazzi encamped outside the house.
However, Kerry’s decision to flee the country has concerned friends, who believe she should be at home attempting to conquer her problems.
A source told The Sun: ‘Kerry needs to come back to the UK and face her demons. There’s no use hiding on a beach in the Canaries – she needs professional help.’
Kerry admitted taking cocaine for a time after she split from ex-husband Brian McFadden in 2004, and shocked This Morning viewers when she slurred her way through an interview last October.
Host Phillip Schofield asked her if she’d been drinking, but she later said she had simply missed a dosage of her bipolar medication.
When asked for comment by MailOnline in relation to the drug allegations, her spokesperson said: ‘We will be consulting lawyers.’
The News of the World, which posted the video on their website, reported Kerry’s eldest children were at home at the time under the care of a nanny.
The alleged incident took place around 5pm on August 12, just hours after Kerry picked up her two oldest children from Manchester Airport.
The girls had just arrived back in England after a three-week break with their father Brian in Ireland. Kerry’s husband Croft was away from the house after reportedly arguing with her earlier that morning.
The couple have been trying to repair their rocky marriage after announcing they had split just two weeks ago. While it is unknown who filmed Kerry in her bathroom, the person would be the latest in a long list of people who have betrayed the troubled star.
Kerry estranged herself from her mother Sue several years ago when she sold her story about her daughter to a Sunday newspaper.
However, the two women reconciled in recent months, with Sue publicly urging Kerry to leave former cab driver Mark once and for all in an interview with Closer magazine earlier this month.> Celebs
