But when things ended she says Posh, 49, rang her from Spain where she was living at the time and sent her a bottle of Champagne. 

Kerry made the revelations in her column with New Magazine as she discussed the new Beckham documentary which touches on David’s alleged affair with Rebecca Loos.

She said: ‘The show has dug up a lot of the 2003 affair allegations for David, which I know was so tough for them at the time.

‘I’ll never forget when Brian left me and there was so much media attention on me and him, it was so awful.

‘Victoria Beckham called from Spain to check on me because she understood how it felt to have all the attention.

‘She then sent me a bottle of Champagne, and I’d only met her once before that. It was so lovely.’

The reality star met the Westlife singer in 1999 and they tied the knot three years later.

Yet their union was doomed from the start, with Brian admitting he cheated on his wife-to-be on the night of his stag do with a lap dancer.

The couple split in 2006 and Kerry has since revealed that the singer’s infidelity triggered childhood trauma that stemmed from seeking approval from her mother Sue, who suffered with mental health issues, and spending time in foster homes.

Appearing on Slingo’s Getting Lippy Gossip Show alongside host Emma Conybeare and MailOnline’s Rebecca Lawrence, Kerry said of her love life: ‘There are lessons to learn. Brian leaving me… I can’t blame Brian.’

She continued: ‘You can’t force somebody to love you if someone falls out of love with you. It took me a long time to get over this but if somebody doesn’t want to be with you, you can’t force them to stay with you, and Brian didn’t want to be with me.

‘I think after he first cheated on me on his stag do, you know, the trust had just gone.

‘But now I analyse things that were a trigger for me when Brian left me because it was like my mum always tried to leave me.

‘I met Brian and he kind of took me away from that and I went to live in Ireland, I got pregnant and I got away from all.

‘I didn’t want to be rich and famous I wanted to be a woman in love so desperately, I wanted that family unity, and that’s what I realised I kept putting on my kids every time I got with a man because I thought they can’t have a broken home.’

Kerry went on to marry second husband Mark Croft in 2007, splitting in 2011, and the exes share daughter Heidi, 16, and son Maxwell, 15.

She was married to the late George Kay from 2014 to 2017 and they had daughter Dylan-Jorge, nine.

She is now engaged to fitness coach Ryan Mahoney, who she has been dating for five years.

It comes as this week Rebecca shared a cryptic response when her affair claims were questioned in the wake of the BECKHAM docuseries.

The Dutch glamour model, 46, became known in 2004 after she claimed to have had an affair with David Beckham, 48.

The allegations came to light again in the former footballer’s docuseries, with Rebecca being inundated with cruel messages from online trolls.

Several commenters questioned if she had been lying about the affair, with one person writing: ‘Nowhere have I seen an admittance that the story was true.’

Replying to the remark another commenter reasoned: ‘if it wasn’t true then they would have sued for defamation,’ prompting Rebecca to ‘like’ the remark and respond with a prayer hands emoji.

Ex reality personality Rebecca has been the target of some harsh criticism on social media, prompting her followers to send her some kind words.

One person wrote in her Instagram comments: ‘Hope you’re ok in light of everything sweetheart, and sincerely hope everyone is kind to you these days xxx,’ with Rebecca responding with a simple love heart emoji.

Rebecca revealed she was trying to see the positive side of the negative remarks.

As one fan penned ‘Some of the comments on here are disgusting!!!  Stay strong  ❤️ You have a beautiful life with your gorgeous family which unlike others doesn’t have to fill the gaps by getting Netflix involved!!! Xx’, Rebecca responded: ‘Thank you  am taking in the nasty comments with as much humour as I can ❤️’

While Kerry Katona has much to celebrate with the joyous news that she’s taking another trip down the aisle, her road to romantic bliss has been quite the rocky one. The Warrington native has already made three trips down the aisle, with each marriage coming to a tumultuous end. And with a handful of relationships in between, it’s fair to say that the star now deserves her shot at happily ever after. Below is a list of the star’s marriages and relationships. 

BRIAN McFADDEN (1999-2004)

It was a match made in pop heaven when Kerry and BrianMcFadden met while their respective bands, Atomic Kitten and Westlife, toured together in 1999. Such a whirlwind was their romance that Brian proposed within three months of the pair getting together and they welcomed their daughter Molly in 2001. A lavish celebrity wedding followed in 2002, and a year later, they welcomed their second daughter, Lily-Sue.  But, alas, it wasn’t meant to be, as in 2004 the couple announced their separation amid allegations Brian had cheated on Kerry with a lapdancer. Heartbroken Kerry was granted a quickie divorce.

DAN CORSI (2004)

Kerry very briefly got back together with her ex, Dan Corsi, who she first dated in 1998. During their time together, they visited Kerry’s native Warrington and were also seen partying up a storm at London hotspot-of-the-moment Pangaea. Dan boasted about bedding the star, saying: ‘Spending the night with Kerry was all I hoped it would be. I thought she’d find it hard to be with someone else after being with Brian for five years, but it felt natural.’ However, friends reportedly feared that Dan was just cashing in on Kerry’s fame, amid reports he still lived with his ex, while simultaneously texting another former flame.  It took just six weeks of rekindled romance before Kerry, feeling that it was too soon after the breakdown of her marriage to embark on another relationship, reportedly dumped Dan over the phone. Surprisingly, her ex-husband Brian publicly shared his opinions on Dan, telling The Mirror at the time: ‘I‘ve known him for a while and I know he’s not the one for her. I don’t want her to get hurt. Despite everything that’s gone on, I just want her to be happy.’

DAVE CUNNINGHAM (2005)

In huge contrast to her glitzy showbiz marriage, Kerry embarked on a romance with her former childhood sweetheart, Dave Cunningham, with the couple announcing their engagement in 2005. However, it wasn’t long before their relationship hit the rocks, with the pair getting into a furious row while holidaying in Spain, amid rumours Dave had been seeing his ex-girlfriend behind her back. A source told People at the time: ‘Kerry is devastated. After everything she has gone through this year she truly believed Dave could be her saviour. Then the shocking revelations about his ex emerged.’

MARK CROFT (2005-2010)

Six weeks after her split, Kerry was swept off her feet by taxi driver Mark Croft. He proposed in 2006 after just six weeks of dating, and they tied the knot on Valentine’s Day 2007. Their marriage produced two children: daughter Heidi and son Maxwell. However, the union came about during a tumultuous time in Kerry’s life, as she watched her fortune (which once peaked at £6.8million) dwindle to the point that she was declared bankrupt. During her marriage, she also made her infamous appearance on ITV’s This Morning, where her slurred speech prompted concern among viewers. She ultimately admitted to a cocaine addiction, as she confessed: ‘I hated my life. I’d lie in bed for three days in a row doing cocaine with Mark. We did coke in our en suite and had a lock on the door. The kids knew if the bathroom door was locked they mustn’t come in.’ After having even considered suicide during their marriage, the couple split in 2010. Mark would later admit that he ‘bled Kerry dry’ during their ill-fated relationship.

LUCIEN LAVISCOUNT (2011)

She also dated Emily In Paris star Lucien Laviscount 12 years ago. Lucien and Kerry met during their time on Celebrity Big Brother in 2011, when he was 19 at the time and she was 31. At the time, Lucien described Kerry as ‘amazing’, adding: ‘When I’m with her, I don’t feel like there’s an age gap at all.’ Back then, Kerry dubbed them ‘friends with benefits’, later admitting they called it quits because “I would never want to take his childhood away from him!” 12 years after their whirlwind romance, Kerry broke her silence on their viral relationship as she branded Lucien ‘charming’ and ‘talented’. She told OK! Magazine recently: ‘Apparently my OK! magazine cover from 2011 with my former Celebrity Big Brother housemate Lucien Laviscount has gone viral on social media! ‘Lucien was very charming and obviously easy on the eye, and it was all just a bit of fun.’

STEVE ALCE (2012)

Kerry famously dated artist Steve Alce back in 2012 and said she was going to marry him just weeks into their relationship. After meeting at a glitzy sports dinner in, he moved into her Cheshire home just a couple of months later. But less than a year later the fast-moving romance was over. She sensationally dumped lover Steve because he was ‘too boring’. The reality star clashed with artist Steve and booted him out of her house branding him ‘too reliable and dull’. A friend told The People: Kerry was smitten at first, she loved that he wasn’t interested in all the celebrity glitz and glamour.’ 

DAN FODEN (2012)

Kerry couldn’t believe her luck when she bagged a date with hunky Take Me Out contestant Dan Foden that same year, but within weeks their relationship was over. She told a friend back then: ‘I can’t believe I’ve pulled him. He’s dead fit he’s gorgeous. He’s got plenty of money, and the best part is he has no kids and no ex-wife.’ But game show contestant Dan struggled with having his life in the public eye and hinted that their relationship was moving too fast.

GEORGE KAY (2012-2017)

It appeared that a change of fortune was on the cards for Kerry 2012, when she met George Kay, who at the time was working as her driver. Sparks flew between the pair, prompting former rugby player George to pop the question at the top of Blackpool Tower in April 2013. exactly one year later, more joy was brought into their home when Kerry gave birth to their daughter Dylan-Jorge. A trip down the aisle followed in September 2014, and it seemed that Kerry had finally found the elusive One. But trouble entered their relationship just two months after the wedding, when George was hospitalised after showing ‘signs of a stroke’, leaving Kerry struggling to cope. Her struggles in dealing with George’s behaviour led to the couple splitting, though they would eventually get back together and renew their wedding vows. However, things would eventually come to a complete end in 2017, amid accusations of domestic violence on George’s part. But the heartbreak didn’t end there, as in July 2019, George unexpectedly passed away aged 39.

JAMES ENGLISH (2017)

It took just weeks for the star to embark on a new relationship following her spit from George. Showing she was a woman of the times, Kerry went Instagram official with her handsome new boyfriend James English in 2017. And while the numerous posts of herself spending time with the Scottish comedian were shared on social media, the pair soon quietly went their separate ways within just two months. In fact, their split was so quiet that it wasn’t noticed until the star spoke about being a singleton once again.

RYAN MAHONEY (2018 – present)

Kerry met personal trainer Ryan in 2018 after they matched on the dating app Bumble. The pair briefly called it quits following a make-or-break trip to Thailand, but rekindled their romance in 2019. 

After spending much of the Covid lockdown together, Ryan proposed to Kerry in 2021, and they’re still going strong with a wedding on the horizon.
