Kerry Katona has lavished praised on her ex-husband Brian McFadden’s girlfriend.
The mum-of-five described PE teacher Danielle Parkinson as the “best girlfriend” her former partner has ever had.
Well, apart from her!
Kerry, 37, split from former Westlife singer Brian, also 37, in 2004 after two years of marriage.

They share daughters Molly, 16, and Lilly-Sue, 15, while Kerry is also mum to kids Heidi, 11, Max, nine, and four-year-old Dylan-Jorge from other relationships.
Kerry told The Sun: “[Brian] was the love of my life and I desperately wanted us to work out. Being a foster kid, family is very important to me. I never wanted to get divorced.”
But she went on to say: “I love his new girlfriend. She’s the best girlfriend he’s ever had — well, except me that is.
“There’s no hard feelings between us. The kids absolutely adore her and that’s the most important thing.”
Kerry and Brian haven’t always had such an amicable relationship, but these days, the past is behind them, they’ve moved on, and they are happy for each other.
After divorcing Brian, Kerry wed second husband, taxi driver Mark Croft, before they split and she married husband number three, childhood pal George Kay. Kerry filed for divorce from George last year.
Brian, meanwhile, enjoyed a seven-year relationship with popstar Delta Goodrem, before marrying Irish television presenter and model Vogue Williams. He split from Vogue in 2015 after three years of marriage, going on to find love with Danielle in 2016.
In an interview with OK! magazine last month, Kerry said: “Danielle is an absolute diamond. Molly and Lilly idolise her – I think they prefer her to Brian! She’s too good for him!”
“Molly and Lilly weren’t as close to Delta or Vogue but they are desperate for Brian to marry Danielle,” added Kerry.
“I might even get invited to this wedding!”
Kerry said she’d be “absolutely over the moon” if Brian did propose to Danielle, adding: “Everyone deserves happiness.”
The Atomic Kitten star met Danielle over Christmas, when Brian and Danielle came along to support Kerry in panto.

Kerry and Danielle even posed for a photo backstage, with Brian posting it to social media with the funny caption: “When the love of your life meets your evil ex-wife.”
It that isn’t proving you’re amicable, what is?!
