Kerry Katona's late ex-husband tried to strangle her while he was driving. The former Atomic Kitten singer has opened up about the abuse she suffered at the hands of George Kay - who died in 2019, two years after they split - and claimed he beat her every day during their relationship, even while she was pregnant with their daughter DJ, now eight.

In an extract from her memoir 'Kerry Katona: Whole Again' obtained by The Sun newspaper, she wrote about him strangling her in the car: "I could barely breathe and honestly thought I was done for, when he released his grip, pulled over, opened the passenger side door and dragged me out of the car by my hair. "I fell, hitting my head on the door.

He spat on me, got back in the car and drove off. " Kerry explained how George lashed out after she'd shared a funny anecdote during a house viewing about singer Bryan Adams urging her to eat vegetables.

She wrote: "I'm recounting the tale to George and the landlord, I had this big plate of vegetables in front of me and I didn't fancy them, but Bryan kept urging me in his fantastic Canadian drawl, 'Eat them, you have to eat your greens!' "'And then, Bryan Adams fed me broccoli off a fork', I told George and this random landlord proudly. "There was nothing sexual or romantic about that moment with Bryan.
