HER MONEY BATTLES

-

2008

Kerry first filed for bankruptcy in 2008 after failing to pay the final £86,000 of a whopping £417,000 tax bill. According to reports, Kerry had blown thousands on luxury cars for then-husband Mark Croft, lost her lucrative contract to promote supermarke­t brand Iceland and was axed from her weekly magazine column.

She later recalled, “It was a tax bill for 86 grand, which was nothing for me with the money I’d earned from the Iceland ads. I was like, ‘I don’t understand this,’ but at the same time I was taking a lot of coke and a lot of that period is a blur.”

2013

Kerry pulled herself out of her financial mess after three years, but later found herself in more hot water.

“It’s just a vicious circle,” she said of her finances in 2013 and, sure enough, in July of that year, Kerry once again filed for bankruptcy. She later admitted, “I took any job I could to stop it happening.”
