Reality star still upset about infamous interview

Wednesday, 6 May 2009

Kerry Katona says she's not happy about the way she was treated on This Morning.

The reality star sparked fears for her health when she slurred her words on the show last October.

And Kerry, 28, claims host Phillip Schofield was 'ignorant and arrogant' during the interview.

‘I have a serious illness,’ she tells the BBC. ‘What really annoyed me when I was on This Morning was how they ignored the illness and my medication and just presumed I was a drunk.

‘The public do not take [my bipolar] seriously, nor do interviewers or anybody for that matter.

'I told them what I was on, I told him it was medication. I said I had an illness and he just went: "Are you drunk?", which I thought was quite rude.'

Phillip, 47, has responded, saying: 'In light of Kerry Katona's recent press conference I would like to point out that the recollection I have of the interview we did with her, differs considerably from hers.

‘We pride ourselves on being sensitive and caring to our guests. Anyone who regularly watches This Morning will hopefully agree that we try our very best to give a balanced point of view.

‘It is fantastic that she is attacking her problems head-on, it can't be easy and is to be congratulated. As always, I wish her nothing but health and happiness.’

Kerry Katona: What's The Problem? debuts on MTV One on Sunday 17 May.
