Kerry Katona hires private detective to find her real dad

Kerry KatonaFormer Atomic Kitten star Kerry Katona has reportedly hired a private detective to track down her real father - after a bus driver claimed he was her real dad.

49-year-old John Dowd claimed that he had a short affair with Kerry’s mum Sue around 28 years ago.

But since then, several other men have come forward claiming to be 27-year-old Kerry's father.

Kerry said of John: “He looks nothing like me. He looks like another one of them storytellers. I’ve hired a private investigator to find my real dad so I guess I’ll find out soon.”

The troubled star also said she may take a DNA test “to shut him up”.

Meanwhile, Kerry has apparently threatened to evict her mother from the home she bought for her - after being faced with a costly tax bill, warning her by text message "I'm putting the house up for sale."

Kerry bought the £95,000 two-bedroom terrace in Warrington, Cheshire, for her mum when she hit the big time - and has let jobless Susan, 47, live there rent-free ever since.

But the property is still in Kerry's name and she is desperately looking for assets to sell to pay the first £200,000 chunk of a £700,000 tax bill.

A source close to Katona's mum, said: "Susan is panicking. She's in bits and doesn't know where she'll end up."

Katona - who was previously married to former Westlife singer Brian McFadden, disowned her mum after Susan branded her an out-of-control cokehead. Kerry then banned her from seeing her granddaughters.
