Katona hasn't told Cunningham of split

Kerry Katona's dumped lover Dave Cunningham has revealed that Kerry hasn't yet told him of the split to his face.

Cunningham told the Sunday Mirror, "People are telling me we've split up, but Kerry hasn't actually told me herself. It's fair to say that we haven't been sleeping over at each other's houses."

Katona decided to end her relationship with Cunningham, her childhood sweetheart, following allegations that he had cheated on her with his ex-girlfriend.

A friend of Kerry's told The People, "Kerry is devastated. After everything she has gone through this year she truly believed Dave could be her saviour.

"Then the shocking revelations about his ex emerged. But because her private life has been made public before, she made a pact not to discuss the split. She is desperately trying to put on a brave face, particularly for the sake of her daughters, but she is finding it hard.

"It's bad enough dealing with a traumatic break-up under normal circumstances never mind dealing with it when you're Kerry Katona."
