Former Kitten Kerry’s Still Purrfect

By Grainne McLoughlin

The television programme, My Fair Kerry, which was shown on ITV last week, tried to show the former Atomic Kitten star in a new light — yet it merely brightened the light in which we always saw her.

The show, for which she attempted to be transformed into an Austrian high society princess, portrayed Kerry as a salt of the earth celeb — of which there are few and far between.

Kerry was given just two weeks to turn herself into an aristocrat with the help of Austrian Count Carl Philip Clam. The former singer had to undergo a rigorous programme of training in the finer things in life, from intensive speech coaching to lessons in which cutlery to use and when.

But the I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here Queen of the Jungle says it’s the toughest thing she’s had to face despite spending the last year in and out of rehab after her very public split from former Westlife star Brian McFadden.

She said: “This has definitely been the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do. With the jungle at least I was able to be myself, but with this I had to be another person completely. I like the way I am.”
