Kerry Katona has been left heartbroken after revealing her childhood friend has died.

The 42 year old revealed the sad news on Instagram as she paid tribute to the "first boy to ever break my heart". She went on to say that he would be "forever in [her] heart" and would remember their "crazy memories" together.

Sharing a photo of him and "RIP" with a broken heart emoji, Kerry appeared to reference his funeral or memorial, which was attended by mutual friends. She wrote: "You'll be forever in our hearts, sooooo many funny crazy memories we all made together. As sad as it was saying goodbye to you today, it was so good to catch up with old friends and reminisce about all the funny crazy s***we all got up to.

"Always in our hearts. What a surreal and sad day, said goodbye today to one of my childhood friends. First boy ever to break my heart 'Deano'." She went on to refer to the show she had just performed, adding: "Honestly don't know how the hell I just got through that last show!"

It's been a tough few weeks after Kerry rushed her youngest daughter to A&E in December following another health scare. The former Atomic Kitten star had shared her growing concern for DJ, who has been suffering with a bout of fainting spells, but the cause of her fainting has yet not been discovered. The 9-year-old was taken to hospital by her mum, who shared a snap of her lying in a hospital bed.

Kerry was next to DJ, who she shares with the late George Kay, as she told her followers: "Poor baby girl second day. Soooo Dj has been really poorly had to leave rehearsals and stay in hospital with her... But she's on mend and hopefully will be home soon." The update comes just days after Kerry revealed DJ has been fainting on a regular basis in recent months.

The media personality admitted she is feeling severe anxiety over DJ's health. Writing in her OK! Magazine column, mum-of-five Kerry revealed she took DJ to the doctor and, after doing a number of MRI scans, they 'found something'. Kerry said: "Annabel Giles sadly passed away at 64 last week, which was awful. It really scares me to read things like that. It’s such a shame and I’m thinking of her family. I have health anxiety when it comes to DJ.

"I worry about her, especially recently as she’s had a few fainting spells. We took her for an MRI and the doctor found something. We’re waiting as her results have been sent to a neurosurgeon, but the doctor seems to think she’s alright. He said that lots of us could have what she has but we’ve just not had MRIs," the worried mum confessed.

Kerry has revealed DJ has since returned home and is now recovering – but she is still shaken by the ordeal. The proud mum also explained she couldn’t face leaving her daughter alone while her health scare unfolded.

She explained last week: “I’ve had a nightmare this week as DJ was taken into hospital for tests after having a really high temperature for a couple of days. It turned out she had really bad influenza, so they had to put her in isolation.”

Explaining that she couldn’t leave her daughter’s side, Kerry added: “I took some days off work to stay with her. She’s home now, but nurses are still coming to us to visit. It’s been scary and she’s still full of cold, but she’s on the mend. Ryan is looking after her while I go back to work.”
