Katona 'bans Croft from contacting her'

Kerry Katona has reportedly obtained a non-molestation order against estranged husband Mark Croft.

The legal document means that Croft is banned from contacting the reality star, including via text message and through social networking sites. He could face up to five years in jail if he does.

A source told the News of the World: "Mark is furious but Kerry has had enough. He put some nasty messages on Facebook and she is sick of him.

"But she is being fair and will still let him see their kids - he just has to arrange it via solicitors now."

The restrictions will apparently stay in place until Tuesday, when the pair will meet in a London divorce court to fight for custody of their two children - Heidi, 3, and Max, 2.

'McFadden left me in despair'

Kerry Katona has recalled her struggle with the break-up of her marriage to ex-husband Brian McFadden.

The star, who married the Westlife singer in 2002, said that she was in despair when he decided to split from her two years afterwards.

She told the News of the World: "That killed it for me. I loved Brian and I trusted him. I remember thinking: 'But he's the fat one from Westlife. Why would he do this to me?'"

Katona had two children, 8-year-old Molly and 7-year-old Lilly-Sue with McFadden, before he decided to leave her for Australian singer Delta Goodrem.

The ex-Atomic Kitten singer continued: "I thought we could work through it, but after Lilly was born, Brian told me he didn't love me. I didn't know it then but he'd met Delta.

"I didn't fight. I saw the way he looked at Delta. He had never looked at me that way - I knew he had gone."

She added: "I remember thanking God I'd dressed up because this vision with a perfect figure, white shiny teeth, and a beautiful complexion was next to him. She was about a foot taller than me and I felt like a piece of rubbish.

"I was so nervous all I said was, 'Hiya love, are you all right?' This to the woman who had taken my husband."
