Kerry Katona was caught on camera snorting cocaine in the Cheshire mansion

After 6 months on the market, Kerry Katona has finally sold her 'house of hell', the home she shared with estranged 2nd husband Mark Croft - and her very public meltdown.

Kerry originally put the posh mansion in Wilmslow, Cheshire, on the market for 1.25m - but dropped the asking price to £1.1m in desperation.

'In the end she really hated the house, so she's glad it's now history,' says a close friend.

'The fact she's getting so little out of it hurts, but she's accepted that and just wants to move on.'

Kerry was previously made bankrupt over an unpaid tax bill so will receive less than £125,000 from the sale because of the number of times she had the property re-mortgaged.

Nevertheless, the reality TV star is determined to be debt-free soon.

'I'm still bankrupt,' Kerry, 30, told the Daily Star. 'But people don't understand.

'It doesn't mean you have no money whatsoever.

'I work my arse off but I don't reap the rewards.

'I get pocket money. The rest goes to paying off debts.

'If I keep working, which I will, I will hopefully be out of this within the next 2 years.'
