Kerry Katona engaged as Ryan Mahoney proposes with huge diamond ring

Kerry Katona is engaged after her boyfriend Ryan Mahoney popped the question.

The former Atomic Kitten singer, 39, has been with Ryan, 30, for two years and he got down on one knee on their holiday to Spain.

It will be Kerry's fourth marriage as she was previously with Brian McFadden, Mark Croft and George Kay.

Ryan reportedly popped the question with the blessing of Kerry's five children, Molly, 18, Lilly-Sue, 17, Heidi, 13, Max, 12, and six-year-old Dylan-Jorge.

Her daughters all saw the ring before he proposed, it's claimed.

A source told OK! online: "Ryan is really close to all of Kerry's kids so he made sure he involved them before asking for Kerry's hand in marriage.

"He got Kerry a massive two carat diamond ring and showed it to the girls first and they all loved it."

Ryan proposed on the balcony of their villa in Spain where they are on holiday to celebrate Kerry's 40th birthday.

The insider continued: "Kerry couldn't believe it and for once was genuinely speechless when Ryan asked her."

The family had already been having a party for Kerry's birthday so they were perfectly set up to celebrate, it's claimed.

There was a private chef and a DJ to get the party going.

Kerry's kids had sprinkled rose petals on the floor in preparation for the big moment.

Ryan also invited photographers there to capture everything.

Kerry married for the first time when she was just 21.

She was married to Westlife singer Brian McFadden from 2002 until 2006 and they had daughters Molly and Lilly-Sue.

The singer tied the knot with Mark Croft, the father of Max and Heidi, in 2007 but they split in 2011.

Her most recent marriage was to George Kay, with whom she shared Dylan-Jorge.

They were married from 2014 until 2017 and he died suddenly last year.

Kerry got together with Ryan in 2018 after reportedly meeting on dating app Bumble.

They briefly split in October of that year but got back together within months.

Congrats Kerry and Ryan!
