Pregnant Kerry in hospital dash

Kerry Katona has been rushed to hospital over fears she has a potentially deadly illness. The ex-Atomic Kitten singer is being tested for suspected pre-eclampsia; which can be fatal for a mum-to-be and baby.

Heavily pregnant Kerry, 27, was dashed from her home on Monday morning on the orders of her midwife. She had been complaining of swelling in her legs and ankles for weeks but was gradually getting worse.

The mum of three was last night being treated at a maternity unit in Macclesfield, near her home at Wilmslow, Cheshire. Her second husband Mark Croft, 37, was keeping a bedside vigil.

Kerry’s spokesman Max Clifford said: “It is a very worrying time but she is in the safest place for her and her baby. If it turns out to be pre-eclampsia then it can be a very serious condition, she’ll need urgent medical attention.”
