Brian\u2019s representatives declined to comment when contacted by\u00a0Express.co.uk.<\/p>\n
Last week, the Atomic Kitten star branded Brian a \u201cs*** dad\u201d during an appearance on Ellie McKay\u2019s\u00a0On\u00a0A\u00a0Mission podcast.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Reflecting on their split, Kerry claimed Brian did not support his children financially when they were growing up, saying said: \u201cI\u2019m\u00a0the one who\u00a0provides for\u00a0them, I\u00a0didn\u2019t\u00a0get maintenance money off Brian…\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI said, \u2018Look, if you don\u2019t want me, if you don\u2019t love me, I don\u2019t want your money, just give me half the money from the house that we sell and I will sign a piece of paper, just give me my kids\u2019.<\/p>\n

It was obviously a lot more difficult when they were growing up. Kerry and I didn’t have a very good relationship from the day we broke up until now, really, but it’s been a long time.”<\/p>\n
