We can now reveal the surprising age difference between Kerry and her toyboy lover Paolo.

There is an eleven-year age gap between the couple.

A source tells The Sun: “Kerry has bagged herself another toyboy - Paolo is 33 and Kerry is 44, but neither of them are bothered by the age-gap.

"Kerry looks better than most women half her age at the moment, and is young at heart.

"Paolo thinks she’s super sexy and has told all his mates that he is the lucky one.

"Meanwhile Kerry loves the fact that she has a younger man again."

 

The source added: "Paolo’s got an amazing body but he’s also a sweet guy to boot.

"He’s a single dad to two girls, so he has his head screwed on and is responsible.”

The Sun has contacted a rep for Kerry for comment.

Kerry and Paolo met whilst filming Celebs Go Dating in Ibiza last month.

Tearful Kerry Katona shares emotional message with fans following split and admits she didn’t think 2024 ‘would end this way’

Former Atomic Kitten star Kerry signed up to the E4 show in February following her painful break-up with fiancé Ryan Mahoney.

Kerry announced their split in November 2024 and told fans there had been "a breach of trust".

The couple had been engaged for four years and Kerry had even said that he had "been like a dad" to her five kids - Molly, 21, Lilly-Sue, 20, Heidi, 16, Max, 14, and eight-year-old DJ."

Sources said Kerry had hoped to "find a new connection" on Celebs Go Dating - and she has done just that.

This week, she was snapped having a cheeky snog with Paolo outside a hotel.

In their first public outing together, they looked seriously happy as they hugged and kissed each other in the street.

A source previously told us: "Kerry was heartbroken when she split from Ryan – it’s taken her quite a while to get over what happened.

 

"But she was approached to do the show and is always up for a new opportunity.

"Bosses know she makes amazing telly and she’s really hoping she finds a proper connection."
