Kerry Katona has never made a secret of her love for cosmetic surgery, and the former Atomic Kitten singer recently revealed that she wants another boob job.

The 29-year-old star, who first rose to fame in the original line-up of the successful girl group before becoming a TV icon, previously had a breast lift in 2008 to correct her sagging bust as well as breast reduction to take her from GG cup down to a DD.

Now Kerry wants her big boobs back, and told the Daily Star on Sunday that she is planning a breast augmentation to take her back to a 30GG.

“I want bigger boobs – I’m thinking about having something done,” Kerry said.

“I definitely see myself having more plastic surgery and it’s my boobs I’d want to change. I wouldn’t rule out more operations.”

After a turbulent year in 2008, that saw the star dropping four dress sizes and six stone in nine months, following liposuction and a strict diet, Kerry said she is more comfortable in her body and will choose cosmetic surgery more carefully in the future.

Speaking after her first breast surgery, Kerry said: “After four kids I need it. When I take my bra off my nipples are by my feet.

“I feel sexier, my confidence has come back and everyone keeps telling me how amazing I look, which is really cool.”
