Kerry replaced by 'double' in Iceland ads!

Kerry Katona has been replaced in Iceland ads by a lookalike who also hails from Warrington.

Glamour model and mum of two, Samantha Wallace will feature in Christmas ads for the supermarket chain.

Despite having come second in a competition looking to find the 'face of Iceland' after Kerry was caught snorting cocaine, bosses contacted her to tell her she'd still get to represent the brand.

Speaking about her similarities with the former Atomic Kitten star, Samantha said: "I might look a bit like Kerry and she used to live near me in Warrington. But I would never take drugs and you won't see me drinking outside a pub with my kids."

And Samantha, who starts filming next week, revealed how pleased she was to have landed the role, saying: "I just started screaming when they called me.

"I rang up everyone I know to tell them. A few people have said, 'You're going to be the new Kerry'.

"I don't think I will be paid as much though as she is a celebrity!"

Meanwhile, Kerry has been commenting on Jordan again.

"It's nice to see Katie Price looking a bit more natural. Last week was the first time I've seen her looking more normal in ages," she wrote in her magazine column.

"I watched her on her show and she looked so pretty without all that make-up and was beautiful in her dress - but that top lip is just too big!"

The ex-Iceland ad star has also admitted that she has never got over ex-hubby Brian McFadden. 

Speaking about seeing him recently, she said: "As soon as I saw him I realised I never got over him, he was my knight in shining armour.

"I'll never go back there but I'll always love Brian, just like I'll always love Mark because I've shared children with them, but it's a different love."

There's lots of Kerry gossip about at the moment, no?!
