She’s the former pop-princess turned daytime telly regular, whose face is known across the UK. They are one of the world’s most famous families, made up of princes and princesses, future Kings and Queens. So, how is it that Kerry Katona and the royal family are linked?!
Now, we know what you’re thinking, surely there is no way this is possible? However, it’s true! When Pippa Middleton marries James Matthews in a lavish ceremony at the weekend, Kerry Katona will be (albeit loosely) linked to the royal family and the Duchess of Cambridge herself.
So, how are Kerry Katona and the Duchess of Cambridge linked? Take a look below…
Kerry Katona’s surprising link to the royal family explained:
Kerry Katona was married to Brian McFadden…

Then Brian McFadden married Vogue Williams…
Brian and Vogue Williams were married for nearly three years, before they shockingly announced their split in 2016. Vogue was left heartbroken by the break-up, and was very open about her struggle to come to terms with the split.
Vogue hoped to stay good friends with Brian as she had a good relationship with his two daughters from his marriage to Kerry.
Vogue said: “It’s not as easy as it looks and we do have our problems.
“But I would rather not put it out there. I just think it looks bad for everyone involved.
“Brian has two kids, I get on very well with them and I’d hate for them to see us publicly bash each other.”

Vogue Williams is now dating Spencer Matthews…
Vogue Williams, 31, started dating Spencer Matthews, 28, after she met him filming reality TV show ‘The Jump’ for Channel 4. The loved-up pair have been spotted soaking up the sun on a romantic getaway together recently.

Spencer Matthews is the brother of James Matthews – who is engaged to Pippa Middleton
Spencer is the younger brother of James Mattrhews, Pippa Middleton’s fiancé! Spencer and James also have a sister, Nina. They also had another brother, Michael, who sadly died age 22 while climbing Everest in 1999. It is said that the siblings have remained especially close ever since.
Speculation has been rife as to whether James will allow his younger brother Spencer to bring his girlfriend Vogue to the wedding.
A wedding insider told The Sun: ‘Pippa’s view is that Vogue’s relationship with Spencer is still very new. It wouldn’t be appropriate for her to be there after just a few months of dating.
It appears that there is no hard feelings on behalf of Brian’s ex Vogue though. A representative for Vogue told thw Daily Mail, “Vogue has a prior engagement in her diary on the date of the wedding, but wishes Pippa and James all the best on their special day.”
Pippa Middleton is (of course) the Duchess of Cambridge’s sister!
So, there you have it! Talk about six degrees of separation! Through a series of break-ups and new relationships, Kerry Katona has an unlikely link to the royal family! Somehow we can’t imagine Pippa or Kate inviting Kerry over for tea anytime soon…but you never know!
