Close friends Katie Price and Kerry Katona, are on a mission to reclaim their status as mega-millionaires by restoring their respective empires, an insider has revealed. The duo’s friendship goes back more than 20 years, but their bond has cemented even more after sharing the limelight during a panto run of Cinderella last year.
Someone in the know revealed to Closer magazine: “Katie and Kerry want to be mega-millionaires before the year is out. They have plans to rebuild their empires, and Katie has pledged she is going to be the best friend and support to Kerry.”
They continued: “In Katie’s New Year’s resolutions, she vowed to make more money than ever before with Kerry, and has already spoken about having their own reality TV programme together, which is in early talks with their production company.”
The source also spilled that Katie and Kerry are looking at various joint ventures including embarking on an all-women tour following their panto success, diving into OnlyFans for exclusive content, and even dropping a single they hope will become a summer dance hit.
Katona and Price forged their friendship back in 2004 when they both appeared on I’m A Celebrity, which saw Kerry crowned the winner. It is believed Katie spent the Christmas season at Kerry’s abode in Cheshire, reports the Mirror.
Kerry shared a snap with the caption: “So good to get out of the house and actually get dressed up and spend time with my bestie.”
Both Katie Price and Kerry Katona have led colourful personal lives under the public eye. Katie, a mother of five, has children Harvey with ex-footballer Dwight Yorke, Princess and Junior with pop star Peter Andre, and Jett and Bunny with ex-husband Kieran Hayler.
The 46 year old, who has been married and divorced three times, recently expressed her desire to have more children. Currently, she is dating Married at First Sight star JJ Slater.
Kerry, 44, also has five children – Molly and Lilly-Sue with former Westlife singer Brian McFadden, Heidi and Maxwell with Mark Croft, and Dylan-Jorge with her third and final husband George Kay. The pop star is currently single after parting ways with fiancé Ryan Mahoney in November.
Both women have a history of undergoing plastic surgery, especially Katie who has had numerous operations. Despite their pasts, they are determined to earn substantial amounts of money.
Insiders suggest that the pair will ‘appear to be inseparable’ as long as their newfound close friendship lasts.
Last year, the ex-glamour model told Closer: “We’ve gone through so much. We are always there for each other.”
A representative for Katie hinted that “it’s going to be an exciting year – so watch this space”. A rep for Kerry has also been contacted for comment.
