Kerry Katona has said that she has decided to quit drinking alcohol altogether, after being treated for depression at a US rehab clinic.

The ex-Atomic Kitten star has said that she had developed a problem with drink after she suffered a nervous breakdown, following her split from husband Brian McFadden.

The 25-year-old told OK! Magazine: "I had started drinking quite a bit. I now realise that was part of the depression. It was a way to get away from everything."

"It would be a case of sometimes waking up and not being able to remember stuff," she said. "I went out with a mate the other day and stuck to water all night. It was so funny, looking at everyone with me being sober."
