Kerry Katona is planning to marry her cab driver boyfriend Mark Croft next month.

The former Atomic Kitten singer has decided to bring her wedding forward after finding out that she is expecting a third child.

A friend told The Mirror, "Kerry is getting married in September. She's not decided on the venue yet but is looking at a couple of nice hotels in Warrington. It will either be a civil service in a hotel or a register office and then the bash in a posh hotel afterwards.

"She says she wants to get married as soon as she can so that she doesn't look huge in her wedding dress. And she wants to be Mrs Croft so she'll have the same surname as their baby."

Katona's divorce from former Westlife singer Brian McFadden is expected to come through within the next few weeks.
