Kerry Katona’s baby heartache: ‘I’ll freeze my eggs - I’ve told Ryan to leave me if it doesn’t work’
ok.co.ukKerry Katona has opened up exclusively to OK! 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.
