Kerry Katona’s daughter Molly reportedly concerned for her mum’s new relationship

The singer split from her third husband in July this year

Kerry Katona’s daughter Molly, 16, is reportedly concerned for her mum’s new relationship with Scottish comedian James English.

The former Atomic Kitten singer split from her third hubby George Kay just two months ago and has already moved on and found love with James.

Pals claim Molly wishes her mum could “slow down” and “focus on herself”.

A source told Now magazine: “Molly just wishes her mum would slow down and focus on herself more than anything.

“Molly is like the grown-up in the family and Kerry’s the child that keeps repeating the same mistakes.”

The insider continued: “Kerry’s family think she’s vulnerable. She has admitted that she can’t be alone right now, and they’re all worried about where things will end up.”

Molly is currently living away from her mum in Ireland with her grandparents as she studies to become a surgeon.

Shortly before Molly’s big move Kerry and estranged husband George went their separate ways following a string of rows and shocking accusations.

Kerry, 37, claimed George was abusive throughout their marriage while George blames Kerry’s “alcoholism” for their split.

Kerry’s accused former Rugby player George of “spitting in my face all the time” and said she lived in “constant fear” during their relationship.

George, who shares three-year-old daughter Dylan-Jorge with Kerry, was quick to hit back at her claims.

He told the Daily Star: “I’m not trying to throw stones, but I’ve been painted as the pantomime villain for a long time and enough is enough.

“I’m not having Kerry saying things about me that aren’t true and that, more importantly, my daughter could read in the future.”

Now just two months later the mum-of-five has already found love again with new man James.

The source continued to tell Now: “Kerry’s smitten and thinks there’s a real future for them.

“They’ve even been discussing the prospect of having children in the future.”

Last month friends of the star claimed Kerry and James were secretly dating and attempted to keep their relationship private.

The source told Closer magazine: “Kerry has a new man – he’s a Scottish businessman she met at an Atomic Kitten gig.

“She’s been visiting him in Scotland recently with her eldest daughter Molly, 15, which is great because they can keep their relationship more private up there.”

The pal added: “She’s playing her cards close to her chest with this guy.”

But the pair have now made their romance public after sharing a series of loved-up selfies on their social media accounts.

Kerry uploaded a photo of her and James and she looked happier than ever as she cuddled up to her new beau.

She simply captioned the picture with two heart-eyes emojis.

But fans have expressed their concerns already for the troubled star’s new love.

One wrote: “Why don’t you just stay single for a bit and concentrate on your lovely children.”

“Kerry we all want you to be happy but not sure this man is the one for you!! #worriedforyou,” another said.

“Such a shame you can’t just concentrate on being a mum rather than bringing yet another man into their home,” a third added.

But will Kerry take their advice or more importantly her daughter’s advice?
