A woman has claimed she was dating Paolo, 33, before he went on Celebs Go Dating, which is where he met Kerry, 44.
The new couple went public last week, with fans stunned by the new pairing as their age gap of 10 years was unveiled.
Jessica Smith, 25, has now said that Paolo is her boyfriend, and claims he never told her about going on the hit series.
She claims the father-of-two only went on the show because he wants to further his career.

Jessica, who is a warehouse manager from Yorkshire, has now opened up in a new interview.
She told MailOnline: "I do not believe that he has one single feeling for Kerry, he only cares about fame.
"I do not believe that he has one single feeling for Kerry, he only cares about fame, and he'll be happy he's now being put out there."
Jessica said she is a 100% sure that he didn't go on Celebs Go Dating to find love.

Paolo also allegedly told Jessica that he told her he had filmed for a dating show "a long time ago".
"He told me that 'it's nothing to do with love and it's only for the fame'," she recalled him saying.
Kerry Katona's love life timeline
Kerry's first high-profile relationship was with Brian McFadden, who was then a member of the Irish boyband Westlife.
The couple married in 2002 and had two daughters together, Molly and Lilly-Sue, but divorce beckoned just four years later after infidelity claims.
In 2007, Kerry married Mark Croft, a former taxi driver.
Their relationship was tumultuous and marked by financial difficulties and accusations of infidelity.
They had two children together, Heidi and Maxwell, before divorcing in 2011.
Kerry has spoken openly about the difficulties she faced during this period, including struggles with her mental health and substance abuse.
Following this, she entered into a relationship with George Kay, a former professional rugby league player.
They married in 2014 and had a daughter, Dylan-Jorge (DJ). However, their relationship was fraught with issues, including horrifying domestic abuse, and they separated in 2017. Kay died in 2019 after 'biting into a ball of cocaine'.
Kerry later found love again with Ryan Mahoney, a fitness trainer.
The couple became engaged in 2020, and Kerry described Ryan as a stabilising and positive influence in her life.
After increasing speculation late in 2024, Kerry revealed they had split over a "breach in trust" and Ryan had moved out of her home.
He is also alleged to have told her: "I promise you, everyone goes on the show for fame and I'm just doing the same'."
Jessica and Paolo started their relationship after he randomly messaged her on Instagram, with their bond blooming after several dates.

While Paolo was on the dating show, he allegedly sent Jessica, who he told he wanted to marry, loved up messages.
During the filming of the show in April and May, Paolo continued to send Jessica lovey-dovey texts, despite seemingly forming a bond with Kerry.
Jessica said he eventually admitted to filming the programme.
Speaking to the paper, she revealed: "I asked him, do you expect me to sit at home and watch this and still be with you and he replied: 'I hope you will do that but it's completely down to you.'

He picked Irish beauty Megan before getting her to lay on her tummy on the floor. Conor then hovered above her as they giggled and he said: "Pump." Tommy, who Megan is currently coupled up with, watched on in horror and shook his head. Welsh beauty Emily, who Conor said he was most invested in, then said: "If he carries on, he'll never find out how I am in bed." Elsewhere in the racy game, Helena lands on a dare and Dejon dares her to kiss the person that she'd chose to recouple with, she kisses Harrison. When she pulls a truth card, Harry asks Megan how she genuinely feels about Conor. She tells the group: 'Me and Conor got on from the start and that got cut short so I feel like there's unfinished business there, as you would say [Harry]'. Toni is asked how she feels to know that Harrison isn't just interested in her, given Helena's kiss in her dare. Toni responds 'When we talk to each other, he says the best chats are with me so he knows where home is'. Terrified Love Island star reveals relief after 'surviving' hot air balloon ride Yasmin then puts Harrison on the spot: 'Do you think the best chats are with Toni?'

Kelsey Parker's baby name and beautiful meaning after devastating stillbirth
Kelsey Parker told fans earlier today the "earth-shattering" news of the loss of her son. Kelsey Parker shared the devastating news that she has lost her third child after an "earth-shattering" stillbirth. Kelsey issued the heartbreaking update earlier today after announcing she was expecting her first child with partner Will Lindsay in January. The podcast host posted an emotional poem dedicated to her son, and revealed she and Will had decided to name him Phoenix. According to the Oxford English dictionary, as writes the Mirror, the word Phoenix as a noun is described as: "A bird resembling an eagle but with sumptuous red and gold plumage, which was said to live for five or six hundred years in the deserts of Arabia, before burning itself to ashes on a funeral pyre ignited by the sun and fanned by its own wings, only to rise from its ashes with renewed youth to live through another such cycle." Another definition states "A person or thing of unique excellence or matchless beauty; a paragon." Legends of the Phoenix are linked to stories of renewal, resurrection, and immortality. The mum of two told Instagram followers earlier today (Sunday, June 22) as she posted a poem dedicated to her son. Alongside the three-verse poem Kelsey shared, entitled 'Born Sleeping, Forever Loved, she said: 'Phoenix Parker-Lindsay, you will forever be loved." Kelsey, who hosts the Mum's The Word! podcast with Danny Jones' wife Georgia, then shared a second message asking for space while she processes her grief with her loved ones. She added: "Before I receive an influx of lovely messages and heartfelt wishes, I wanted to just say that I truly appreciate everything you are all going to say and share. "But with the news being so raw, I would really like to ensure that we as a family are given space and time to process this devastating and earth-shattering news. I love you all and thank you for your understanding and space. Love always, Kelsey, Will, and the Parker Family." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Friends and followers joined together to send her love and pay tribute. GMB host Charlotte Hawkins said: "Oh no Kelsey I'm so sorry, just heartbreaking. Sending you so much love." Former Love Island star Olivia Bowen said:" Kelsey I'm so sorry. Thinking of you all and sending you so much love." Kelsey is already mum to daughter Aureila, five, and son Bodhi, four, who she shared with her late husband Tom Parker - the beloved The Wanted singer who tragically passed away in 2022 at the age of 33 following a battle with cancer. In January she opened up in an interview with the Mirror and revealed her excitement about the pregnancy - and that it had been a "happy accident". She said she was preparing Aurelia and Bodhi for the new arrival, and spoke about telling Tom's family. Kelsey said Tom's mum Noreen had given her blessing as she added: "All I care about is that both our families and Tom's family are happy. Noreen is the most amazing lady. After Tom passed, she said to me, 'as long as you're happy Kels, whatever you do, we will always support you and be happy for you.' "We've all been through so much together. But I'm here and bringing another baby into the world."
