Brian McFadden: Dancing on Ice 2019 star pictured with Kerry Katona in their pop star days

Singer Brian McFadden, 38, has made it to the semi-finals of ice skating competition Dancing On Ice 2019 with professional partner Alex Murphy.

The Irish crooner, who shot to fame in the 1990s with boyband Westlife, has been performing impressive routines on the ITV show every Sunday for the past two months and hopes to find himself in the final next week.

Back in his early pop star days of the late 90s and early 00s, the twice-married star was at the top of the charts, scoring number one after number one, with hits such as Flying Without Wings and Seasons in the Sun.

He caught the eye of fellow pop star Kerry Katona who was also riding high in the UK charts with girl group Atomic Kitten.

In 2002, Kerry and Brian had a winter wedding in County Meath, Ireland and went on to have two children together before separating two years later and finally divorcing in 2006.

Their children Molly, 17, and Lilly-Sue, 16, live with their mother Kerry who now has five children from three different marriages.

The former boyband star and the Whole Again singer have appeared in numerous reality shows over the years with Kerry winning I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! in 2004.

She even starred in Dancing On Ice back in 2011 dancing with professional ice skater Daniel Whiston.
