Kerry Katona has revealed that her children not only support her career at OnlyFans, but actively encourage it.
The former Atomic Kitten star, 42, started posting content on the adult site three years ago and thanks to her savvy business practices she regained financial stability following bankruptcy.
Now that the singer has revealed she’s a billionaire, her five children are benefiting: Molly, 21, Lilly-Sue, 20, Heidi, 16, Max, 14, and eight-year-old DJ.
Appearing on Slingo’s Getting Lippy Gossip Show alongside host Emma Conybeare and Web’s Rebecca Lawrence, Kerry revealed that they are now actively encouraging them to strip so they can continue enjoying the rewards.
She explained: “The only one who was a little concerned about that was our Lilly and then when the money started coming in and they all got the iPads they were all ecstatic and now Max and Heidi are like, ‘Do anything mum , go everything.” Like I can get a horse!”

She revealed the reason why she decided to go back to modeling, declaring, “I have amazing boobs!” I know I can make money from it, I was a girl, I was a lap dancer, I used to be total naked. I was obsessed with my boobs, they were amazing.
“I use what God gave me and that’s mine.” I’ve made several cuts because they just keep growing, but I’m not ashamed of it. You know I’m going to a beach. I will go topless.
“I’ll do anything for my kids to make sure they’re okay, and I sat my kids down and I said to them, ‘What do you think about Only Fans?'”
“The only one who was a bit concerned about that was our Lilly, and then when the money started coming in and they all got the iPads, they were all excited and now Max and Heidi are like, ‘Mom, do the whole thing Away, I can get a horse!”
“But we are a very open family. I mean, the first shoot I did, our Molly took pictures of me in my underwear, it’s like you’re in a bikini on the beach. It was funny you know. Yes, I’m getting a little cheeky and why not?
“It was me first [nervous doing it again now] I feel sick. I was like, “Oh my god, oh my god, what am I doing?” And then when the money started coming in, I started creating these great memories and adventures with the kids and taking them back to private school, where I could take her I’m not ashamed of. I really don’t. I want to live the best life I can live.
“I have these memories that I can create with my family and that’s all that matters and money gives you the opportunity to do that.” I laugh all the way to the bank so I don’t care.
“No matter what I do, I could be a lawyer, but my kids will always get shit for being Kerry Katona.”
Fighting back: Kerry admitted her raunchy pics eventually caused an issue with her daughter Heidi, but revealed she had a novel way of dealing with it
Proud Mom: Kerry’s five children: Molly, 21, Lilly-Sue, 20, Heidi, 16, Max, 14 and DJ, 8, have benefited from earnings from her OnlyFans cash inflow
Kerry admitted her raunchy pics eventually caused an issue with her daughter Heidi, who she shares with ex-husband Mark Croft, but revealed she had a novel way of dealing with it.
She explained, “Eventually when we moved north, our Heidi got it and all these guys gave it to her.”
“And I said, ‘Turn around and tell them to tell their dad to unsubscribe and then make sure the mom pleases him,’ and she did!
“I said you’re the one who gets picked up by Lamborghini with a Prada bag!”
“But none of that matters and I’m just very lucky to be able to afford it, but for me it’s all about the adventures that I can afford.”
Kerry’s children came into the limelight due to her mother’s fame and she revealed she encouraged her daughter Lilly-Sue to take part in Love Island after being approached as a contestant.
The singer – who shares her daughter with ex-husband Brian McFadden – explained how Lilly-Sue could bring some normality to the ITV show, saying: “She doesn’t give a shit.”
Lilly-Sue has turned down Love Island twice after being asked to enter the mansion.
“They’re a different generation, but my Lilly doesn’t give a shit,” Kerry explained. “She was offered twice for Love Island. I just thought, “Lilly, please do it.”
She explained: “Not just because I wanted to make a lot of money and give myself half. Because Lilly is one of those people who doesn’t shave her armpits, she sits and smokes a Rollie, she’s a very natural looking girl.
“She won’t shave her legs.” Teenage girls need to see that you know it’s not. You don’t always have to look perfect no matter what you want.
Speaking about her own fitness journey, Kerry explained the importance of making “changes in appearance.”
She added: “My message to younger people is that if you are well in your head and heart, everything else will come naturally. Never try to change yourself for someone else. That’s the biggest mistake you can make.”
“I’ll get something done, I’ll get it done for me, I’m not relying on Ryan.” [fiancé] luckily for me he increases it.’
Last month, Kerry slammed Love Island when she revealed why her daughter turned down the opportunity.
In an interview with The Mirror, Kerry said she thought “Love Island” was “fake” and was “shocked” the show is still on, and she wanted her daughter to enter the mansion to bring in some normalcy.
She said: “Love Island – Bore Island, it’s wrong, I can’t believe it’s still going, our Lilly has been asked twice.”
Praise: Kerry revealed she is “begging” her daughter Lilly-Sue, 20, to go on Love Island and set an example for young girls after she was twice asked to appear on the show
“It’s fake and foggy, it gives young kids the wrong impression and wrong idea. I haven’t seen it, I can’t believe it’s still going – I find it shocking.”
Lilly-Sue twice turned down the show because she felt like she wasn’t the type of person to just walk around in a bikini.
Kerry and her daughter have an open and honest relationship with Lilly-Sue and reveal that Kerry’s OnlyFans is empowering after the couple opened up about her mother’s adult content.
She argued that by posting content to the site, her mother is taking back control of her body and said she “absolutely loves it”.
