Kerry Katona's husband Mark Croft wants to release a tape showing her having sex with another man, a report has claimed.

According to Now magazine, the former cab driver has decided that the scheme will help him to secure public sympathy in a PR battle with his wife.

A source said: "It was Mark and his cronies who set up the video which appeared in the papers of him with a lap dancer. He was behind stories of Kerry cavorting with a boot camp marine that appeared in the papers recently - but now he wants to catch her in the act of having sex with someone else.

"It's a crazy scheme. He's hoping that he can trick Kerry easily if she's had enough drink and drugs to fall into bed with someone else. If this happens, he'll have an excuse to leave Kerry as he thinks the public would side with him."

Earlier this month, it was reported that Katona believes Croft was responsible for the leaked video which showed her snorting cocaine at home.
