Kerry Katona opens up about family cancer scare after finding lump ‘the size of a Brussel sprout’

KERRY Katona has opened up about a family cancer scare and revealed her sister found a lump “the size of a Brussel sprout”.

The former Atomic Kitten star, 43, took to Instagram to share the update and thanked medical staff for promptly seeing to her sister Lynsey Armstrong.

In a clip taken from her Spanish villa, Kerry said: “My sister found a terrible, huge lump in her breast.

“And I know she won’t mind me telling you this. She was so scared. I’m so grateful to Pall Mall Medical, it was the size of a Brussel sprout. We were all so worried because breast cancer runs in the family.

“I’m very fortunate that I do have private health care and I sent my sister to Pall Mall, she went yesterday. 

Fighting back tears, Kerry added: “I’m gonna cry! But she’s fine. It turned out to be a big cyst.”

Earlier this year Kerry and her rarely-seen sibling jetted to Turkey together to get their teeth done and later showed off brand new smiles.

Mum-of-five Kerry recently revealed plans to relocate to Spain next year.

Writing in her OK! column she said: “Being out there just made us want to move abroad even more and we are going to do it next summer.

“We’ve wanted to move abroad for years, but now the kids are getting older and only DJ is in school it’s easier.

“I can work from anywhere and fly back and forth, so we’re 100% going to do it.”
