The Irish in Britain, including those of Irish descent, make up a significant part of the UK population. Here, you will find news, entertainment, events, sports and features from the local Irish Post newspaper.

Irish adopted Kerry Katona has revealed she’s sick of people selling stories about her just because they’re jealous.

The former Atomic Kitten singer who has two children by former Westlife star Bryan McFadden has said that stories circulating about her having a drink problem and that she takes drugs are completely unfounded.

The I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here Queen said: “I’ve never taken cocaine. Never in a million years.”

Saying that all the stories printed have been by girls, she said: “Women are just bitchy. It’s pure jealousy.”

But one thing the stories might be right about is that more than anything she wants her family and husband back.

Despite dating cabbie Mark Croft Katona’s reported to have said: “I’d give anything for the kids to have their daddy living with me and have the family together.”

And so would we.
