Kerry Katona feels likes a "long-term girl" in her relationships

She told the best Suddenly Single podcast: "If you go through my exes, you can count them on my hands. I'm a long-term girl. I don't sleep around. I'm all or nothing.

"People go, 'oh here we go, another one!' I was with Brian for seven years. I was with Mark for four. I was with George for five and a half, and my ex-partner Ryan for six and a half.

"I don't want to be on my own. My children are grown up. I'm a really loving and affectionate person.

"I've got so much love to give. I want to give someone kisses and cuddles. I love being in love. What's wrong with that?"

The former Atomic Kitten singer has Molly, 23, and Lilly-Sue, 22, with first Brian McFadden, Heidi, 18, and Max, 17, with Mark Croft, and daughter DJ, 11, from her marriage to George.

She has acknowledged the "big age gap" with her new man, but she will "never forgoet" how he makes her feel, regardless of what the future holds.

She said: "The guy I'm with now [Paolo], there's 11 years between us. It's a big age gap, and it's not something I've deliberately gone for.

"If someone matches that energy and you have that connection, where every atom in your body goes on fire... I've never had that. It's like being sucker punched in the stomach. I've got it now!

"I hope it works, but even if it doesn't, I'll never forget this feeling. You see me falling in love [on Celebs Go Dating]. Even if this ends tomorrow, I don't think I'll have a feeling like this every again.

"I get really emotional because it scares me. He gets me flowers all the time. I got back from Marbella and there was this big spread of beautiful roses saying 'welcome home beautiful'. I don't need big diamonds, it's the thought that means more."
