Kerry Katona

ITV's switchboard has been bombarded with calls after Kerry Katona's appearance on This Morning earlier today.

Viewers were concerned after the former Atomic Kitten star slurred her words during the interview.

This Morning host Philip Schofield said to her: "You don't seem right to me. Your speech is slurred, how are you feeling?"

Kerry said she was surprised to hear this and blamed prescription drugs which she had taken to help her sleep.

She told the presenter: "All it is is my medication. I've never been happier, I swear to God, healthwise I'm fine."

Co-presenter Fern Britton also asked her whether she has a drinking problem following a story about her behaviour during a recent photo-shoot in Marbella.

Kerry told her: "No not at all, I was on holiday in Spain, I'm allowed to have a drink aren't I? So would that mean I'm an alcoholic?"

Kerry was appearing on the ITV show to promote her new MTV reality programme, Kerry Katona Whole Again. The show follows the ex-singer as she undergoes breast reduction surgery.

    Kerry does look lovely, but there is no doubt she does sound "out of it", whatever she is doing she really does need a rest a good people around her, because she is very lovely.

    Wow, I only had to watch the first minute or so to tell that something wasn't quite right. She shouldn't have done this interview if she was still medicated.

    how sorry i felt for the presenters. this is terrible. i understand drink or drugs are part of every day life but just proves these people are human and make mistakes too. Wait until she see it for herself!!! well done to Fern and Phillip and by the way Fern looks great.
