Kerry Katona has opened up exclusively to new about the end of her baby dreams, revealing that she can’t see herself expanding her brood with her fiancé, Ryan Mahoney.
The doting mum, who has five children from previous relationships, confessed that she and Ryan, who has no biological children of his own, have considered welcoming a baby through surrogacy.
“If it’s something Ryan wants, I’d consider it. But it’s getting to the point where it’s now or never,” said Kerry, 43.
“I’ve thought about getting my eggs frozen this summer, as a birthday present for Ryan, then going down the surrogacy route.”
Still, Kerry admitted it’s an “option” rather than a “priority”, for both of them – and suspects she is still suffering from “PTSD” after her daughter Dylan-Jorge spent four days on life support after her difficult birth almost 10 years ago.
“The thought of being pregnant is something I just couldn’t go through again,” she said. “I nearly died with DJ, and DJ did die – they had to bring her back. It was so terrifying. What if I’d died giving birth? I couldn’t leave my children orphans.”
Kerry is contending with the heartache of doubting that she can give her fiancé a child naturally.
She said, “I don’t want to deprive him – in fact, I’ve given him a pass and said, ‘If this is something you want to pursue, leave me now!’ I never want someone to not have that feeling of having their own child.
