Dyslexic Kerry Katona admits she had help with new novel

I'm A Celebrity star follows in Jordan's footsteps as author

Kerry Katona has launched her debut novel - but admits she had some help writing it.

The ex-Atomic Kitten's fictional tale, Tough Love, is about a former glamour model who is forced to move back home to her backstabbing family in Warrington.

Kerry, 27, co-incidentally a former glamour model from Warrington who recently described her family as 'backstabbers', acknowledges that her publishers gave her a helping hand.

'I'm a bit dyslexic. They got a lady called Anne-Marie, who did all the research and put in things like commas and brackets and paragraphs,' she reveals.

Kerry has a long way to go before she catches up with literary rival Jordan.

Katie Price's second novel, X-rated romp Crystal, has outsold the entire Booker Prize shortlist combined, according to the Guardian.

Clearly there's a trend for celebrity authors - we just hope Britney and Lindsay get their books out soon...
