The happy ending comes after Kerry's three previous marriages.
Take a look at her relationship history, below.
Brian McFadden
Former Westlife star Brian McFadden and Kerry became a thing while she was in Atomic Kitten. They married in January 2002, in Ireland.
The couple went on to have two children, daughters Molly, now 18, and Lilly-Sue, now 17, however they sadly split in 2004, and their divorce was finalised in 2006.
Kerry and Brian recently had a spat in early 2020, when Brian said he was "sick" of his daughters Molly and Lilly-Sue being bridesmaids.
The blonde beauty then hit back at Brian in her new! magazine column as she wrote: “I don’t take much notice of reports that my ex, Brian, had a dig at me about the number of weddings I’ve had. That’s just Brian for you – trying to be funny, but being a bit of a d**k in the process!”
She added: “He said that our daughters 'have been bridesmaids for their mother about fives times already so they’re probably sick of it,' and added, ‘They must be thinking not another f**king wedding!’
“Er, you’re on your third one now, love – we’re equal! And for the record, Brian’s been engaged more times than I have, too!
“But I’m not bothered – he’s right, the girls are probably sick of weddings. Molly’s been to all of mine. But I’ve no doubt they’ll support their dad 100 per cent when he walks down the aisle again.”
Mark Croft
Kerry and Mark married in February 2007 in a private ceremony in Gretna Green, shortly before giving birth to their daughter, Heidi.
They went on to have son Max in 2008. It was an on-off relationship, before they split for good in 2011.
George Kay
Kerry and George married in 2014 and shared daughter Dylan Jorge, known as DJ, together.
They'd met in 2012, while George worked as her driver. The couple split in 2017.
George sadly died aged 39 in 2019 after "eating cocaine" at a Holiday Inn.
Ex-Atomic Kitten singer Kerry was reported to say she was "glad" her ex husband had died, which she hit back at.
Kerry furiously denied the claims as she wrote on Instagram: “Let me make this very very very clear… in no way shape or form am I GLAD my husband is dead!!!! I feel my words have been completely and utterly twisted to make a headline!!!
"George was someone’s son, brother and daddy! Don’t get me wrong George put the fear of god into me and the kids and I stand by putting safeguards in to place for myself and my children! Which anyone who went through what we did would do the same! But NEVER EVER would I be GLAD someone, even more so my husband who I once loved with all my heart is dead!!!"
James English
Shortly after Kerry dated comedian James English for a couple of months, but they split in October 2017.
Kerry announced the split from James in an Instagram statement.
The former Atomic Kitten star wrote: “I’m in a relationship with me. I make me happy and will never leave me.
“Single is good when you like yourself & don’t count on anyone else for your happiness!!”
Ryan Mahoney
Kerry announced her relationship with Ryan in July 2018 as she revealed to her Instagram followers she was “officially spoken for”.
Singer Kerry met her man on dating app Bumble and later thanked the app in a gushing post about him.
Kerry and Ryan reportedly split in October 2018 after a make-or-break holiday in Thailand.
They were said to have secretly reconciled in January 2019, despite being on Celebs Go Dating. She later confirmed they had reunited in August 2019.
Earlier this year, Kerry gushed over her man in her new! magazine column as she revealed plans to celebrate Father’s Day with him.
She said: “When I go off to work he looks after the kids so he’s a real father figure in their lives. We’re going to shower him with presents!”
