EXCLUSIVE Kerry Katona stole MY boyfriend! Woman claims singer's lover promised to marry her and lied about going on Celebs Go Dating
A woman has claimed she was dating Kerry Katona 's new boyfriend before he went on Celebs Go Dating where he met the singer. Kerry, 44, went public with Paolo Margaglione, 33, last week, passionately kissing and holding hands with the personal trainer, who's 10 years her junior. But Kerry's new romance, her first public relationship since splitting from ex-fiancé Ryan Mahoney last November, has been thrown into doubt amid claims Paolo is only interested in 'fame' and growing his public profile. Paolo's former girlfriend claims that she was dating him when he went on the E4 show and has accused him of two-timing her with the Atomic Kitten star. Jessica Smith, 25, says father-of-two Paolo didn't tell her he was going on the series - and only went on because he wants to further his career. Heartbroken Jessica, a warehouse manager from Holmfirth, Yorkshire, told MailOnline: 'I do not believe that he has one single feeling for Kerry, he only cares about fame.' She even says Paolo had planned to fly her to Ibiza, where he claimed to be on holiday but was in fact with Kerry filming Celebs Go Dating and that his regular trips to London, where the agency is based, was for 'business.' Speaking exclusively, Jessica said: '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. 'I back the fact 100 per cent that he has not go on Celebs Go Dating to find love. He lied to me the entire time we were together. It was horrendous. 'This has all massively taken me by surprise. The articles say they filmed Celebs Go Dating in Ibiza, and he told me he was going there for three weeks, he was trying to make me book a flight to meet him out there. 'He said he was there for a stag do and flying his children out the second week and the third week he would be free to see me. But now I know none of that was happening and he was filming a dating show out there. 'Every time he went to London, he told me it was for a business meeting. He would even send me pictures... but he was filming Celebs Go Dating. Every single thing was an act. I feel like I was completely led the entire time.' Former Atomic Kitten singer Kerry stars in the upcoming series of Celebs Go Dating, her second time as a cast member after she first appeared on the show in 2019. Kerry, who's been married three times, ended her six-year relationship with former fiancé Ryan over a 'breach of trust' last November. But now as she embarks on a new romance, Kerry allegedly needs to be weary of Paolo's intentions, as his ex claims he even admitted to only taking part on Celebs Go Dating for 'fame.' Jessica said: 'He told me that he filmed for a dating show a 'long time ago' and it was 'nothing for me to worry about.' He told me that 'it's nothing to do with love and it's only for the fame.' He said, 'I promise you, everyone goes on the show for fame and I'm just doing the same.' The warehouse manager explained how she and Paolo met after he messaged her out of the blue on Instagram and they started dating, spending time together as he wined and dined her and she regularly stayed at his house. Paolo told Jessica he had split from the mother of his two daughters over a year ago and they remain close for their young family. As far as Jessica was concerned, she and Paolo were committed to each other and he filmed Celebs Go Dating, which casts non-famous individuals to date celebrities as they seek advice from relationship experts, behind her back. Paolo, who said he would 'marry' Jessica if given the chance, was exchanging loved-up messages with her during the days he was filming Celebs Go Dating in late April and early May. Jessica said he eventually admitted to filming the programme, which also stars Love Island's Olivia Hawkins and The Chase's Mark Labbett this series, leaving her in floods of tears. She said: '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.' I hysterically cried all day at work, everything was a lie.' Kerry was previously married to Westlife singer Brian McFadden, who she shares daughters Molly, 23, and Lilly-Sue, 22, with, before they divorced in 2006. The former I'm A Celebrity winner wed taxi driver Mark Croft in 2007 after a whirlwind romance and the exes have children Heidi, 18, and Maxwell, 16, together. She was married to her third husband, George Kay from 2014 to 2017, two years before he died aged 39 from a fatal seizure after 'biting into a ball of cocaine.' Kerry, who's also a mother to daughter Dylan-Jorge, 11, from her marriage to George, has spoken in depth about the couple's former relationship and how she endured terrible abuse during their time together. Speaking on Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins, she sobbed: 'He was really abusive… My children heard the shouting, they saw the black eyes.' The ex-singer starred in girl group Atomic Kitten between 1998-2001, years before love rival Jessica was born. And Jessica says she felt reassured after seeing new photos of Paolo kissing Kerry, who at 19 years her senior, she doesn't consider a threat. She said: 'I haven't spoken to Paolo since he's gone public with Kerry... at first, I felt absolutely awful but then I thought, thank God it's not some skinny, pretty model. I genuinely don't think she's a pretty woman, so I felt better in that sense.' Paolo told MailOnline: 'I was never in a relationship with Jess. We only met up around five times. 'I was honest with her that I had been offered to go on a dating show and if it were to come fruition, I would take the opportunity. 'I made it clear to Jess that we had to stop talking and seeing each other as I had been offered to go on the show. I have nothing bad to say about Jess she's a great girl.'

Strictly Come Dancing 'in talks' with Celebs Go Dating and MAFS expert
Strictly Come Dancing 'in talks' with Celebs Go Dating and MAFS expert Strictly Come Dancing bosses are said to be in talks with a relationship expert, known for appearing on Celebs Go Dating and MAFS UK Celebs Go Dating agents Dr Tara, Paul C Brunson and Anna Williamson (Image: E4 ) Strictly Come Dancing executives are apparently keen to secure Celebs Go Dating and Married At First Sight UK guru Paul C Brunson for the next season of the BBC dance contest. Despite the show not returning until later in the year, speculation abounds as to who will be stepping onto the dance floor. Rumour has it that relationship consultant and television presenter Paul might be joining the lineup. The expert gained recognition among British viewers through his role on CGD and MAFS UK, and more recently, he appeared with Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden on Netflix's reality programme, Cheat: Unfinished Business. An insider revealed to The Sun the reasons why the showrunners are eager to enlist Paul for the competition: "Paul would be the ideal tonic to the dark clouds over Strictly as he's clean-cut, very intelligent and has no scandals to worry about." The source added: "They are now in discussion but he's met with producers a number of times." Paul C Brunson is said to be 'in talks' about a Strictly Come Dancing stint (Image: Matt Monfredi / Channel 4 ) Article continues below BBC launch huge Oasis coverage ahead of reunion gigs with entire night of music READ MORE: Only this week, the same newspaper reported that show producers were hoping to bring Sir Mo Farah into the fold, calling him a "genuine national treasure". The Olympic champion's personality could act as an antidote to the negative atmosphere that has lately hung over Strictly. While there is a desire to have him onboard, discussions are still in the preliminary phase, reports the Mirror, which has contacted the BBC for comment. Strictly has faced a number of scandals, with one of the more notable issues emerging after the 2023 series where Amanda Abbington accused her professional dancing partner Giovanni Pernice of bullying. A series of bullying claims led Giovanni to temporarily retreat from public life amidst the controversy. However, after winning the Italian Strictly Come Dancing, he's now back in Britain engaging in various dancing ventures. Graziano Di Prima also found himself out of the show. The summer brought with it allegations that the Italian dancer had physically assaulted Zara, aged 28, an accusation he fervently rebuffs. Sir Mo Farah is also believed to be in talks about appearing on Strictly (Image: NurPhoto, NurPhoto via Getty Images ) He conceded that his "intense passion and determination to win might have affected my training regime." Most recently, Wynne Evans was dropped from the Strictly live tour due to his conduct. Article continues below Wynne gave an interview on This Morning, discussing the scandalous events during his time on Strictly and shared how the backlash severely impacted his mental well-being. "I was at my lowest ebb, I wanted to end my life. I would have if I hadn't been surrounded by people," he confessed to the presenters on the programme. Strictly Come Dancing is available to watch on BBC iPlayer.

More info Strictly Come Dancing chiefs are reportedly eyeing up relationship guru Paul C Brunson for a spin on the upcoming series of the hit BBC dance contest. Despite the fact that the new season won't kick off until later in the year, there's already chatter about which celebs may be stepping onto the dance floor. Rumours suggest that relationship expert and television personality Paul could sashay his way into the line-up. Familiar to UK audiences from Celebs Go Dating (CGD) and Married At First Sight UK (MAFS UK), Paul has also partnered with Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden on Netflix's reality series, Cheat: Unfinished Business. A source tipped The Sun off as to why the Strictly honchos are keen to enlist Paul, saying: "Paul would be the ideal tonic to the dark clouds over Strictly as he's clean-cut, very intelligent and has no scandals to worry about." Further details indicate that "they are now in discussion but he's met with producers a number of times," reports the Mirror, which has approached the BBC for comment. (Image: Matt Monfredi / Channel 4) It emerged earlier this week that the showrunners are courting Sir Mo Farah. He's described as a "genuine national treasure" whose presence could counter the recent negativity around Strictly. The producers see him as an asset saying his personality could banish the show's recent negative atmosphere. Recently, Strictly has had to navigate through some turbulent waters. Post the 2023 series, Amanda Abbington levelled serious claims against professional dancer Giovanni Pernice, accusing him of bullying. Amanda raised eyebrows with accusations of bullying, which saw Giovanni stepping back from the limelight amidst the uproar. In contrast, Giovanni celebrated a victory on the Italian version of Strictly before returning to the UK for more dance endeavours. (Image: NurPhoto, NurPhoto via Getty Images) At a similar time, Graziano Di Prima found himself dropped from Strictly. That summer, there was chatter about Graziano having possibly kicked and hit 27 year old Zara, allegations he vehemently rejects. He conceded that his "intense passion and determination to win might have affected my training regime." More recently, Wynne Evans found himself cut from the Strictly live tour due to his actions. Wynne discussed a tumultuous period during his stint on Strictly in an appearance on This Morning, expressing how the negative publicity had deeply impacted his mental wellbeing.
