The pair welcomed two kids together during their relationship; Lilly-Sue, 21, and Molly, 23.

Now, Kerry has opened up about her regret at having a rocky relationship with Brian.

In her column for Now! Magazine, Kerry reflected on the recent separation of Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin.

She said she admired the co-parenting dynamics between Chris and his ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow, comparing it to her relationship with Brian.

Kerry wrote: “I was sad to read about Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson’s split, I thought they made a nice couple. It’s amazing how Chris and his ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow have managed to co-parent their kids and stay friends. I take my hat off to anyone who can do that.

“I wish Brian and I could have stayed friends. Molly went to watch him at a festival last week and I would have loved to have gone with her.

“Brian’s fiancée is lovely and they’ve got a gorgeous little one. It would be great to have a better relationship.”

In a previous column in OK! Magazine, Kerry opened up further about her regret on not getting along better with Brian.

At the time, the mum-of-five highlighted her envy towards Rod Stewart’s wife Penny Lancaster.

Penny posted a friendly picture with Rod’s ex-wife Rachel Hunter as they both celebrated his daughter Renee’s birthday.

Kerry wrote: “Seeing Penny and Rachel together makes me feel sad that me and my exes have never been able to come together for the kids.

“It’s a shame, really, because I would have liked to have that kind of relationship with my first husband for the kids.”

The TV star has been open about her marriage to the Westlife lad, previously stating that the whole relationship “was all fake and phoney”.

STAR’S TRUTH

While Brian told Reveal Magazine: “It wasn’t a real wedding. We were getting married to have a big party and get loads of money for it – and to appear showbiz.”

Brian and Kerry’s daughters Lily-Sue and Molly still remain close to their dad and his side of the family.

Outside of her two kids with Brian, Kerry has three other children.

She has two – Heidi and Max – with her second husband Mark Croft, and she welcomed her youngest daughter, DJ, with late husband George Kay.

George, a former rugby league player, sadly passed away on July 6, 2019 at just 39 years old.

The dossier of overwhelming circumstantial evidence includes exclusive images of kids’ swimming costumes, a toddler bike and toys found at his property.

We also reveal how cops found a mask, guns and child kidnap stories where Brueckner describes using kidnap chemical ether to take a mum and tot outside a preschool.

Ourfilmreveals the existence of an 80gb hard drive containing images and a laptop key, which may be key in persuading investigators of Madeleine’s death.

And it also placed Breuckner at the key Maddie search location of the Arades Dam, in Portugal.

A document puts the suspectat the location where he allegedly confessed by supposedly saying “she did not scream” as he discussed the British toddler with an associate.

We also reveal sick child kidnap stories where Breuckner wrote: “A very small girl enters the room. She’s definitely not older than five.

“Blonde, long hair tied in pigtails bounces cheekily back and forth as she comes towards me. I feel like I’m in paradise right now.”

Online messages we uncovered from Brueckner show him bragging to another sicko that he really wanted to “capture something small and use it for days”.

He even threatened it wouldn’t matter “if the evidence is destroyed afterwards” and gleefully added: “I’ll make a lot of films… hehe.”

Our documentary on the police files represents the biggest leap forwards in understanding of the case since German police revealed Brueckner as a suspect in 2020.

It contains an interview with Irish holiday rep Hazel Behan, 41, who Brueckner was cleared of raping in 2005 at trial in Germany last year.

Hear from experts at The Sun and in Germany about the ongoing race against time to stop dangerous Brueckner being released in as little as three months.

And learn more about fears he could potentially take hopes for the McCann case to ground with him.

Christian Brueckner refuses to answer police questions or provide an alibi, but has never been formally charged over the disappearance of murder of Madeleine McCann.

He has insisted his innocence in letters while his lawyers continue to maintain he had nothing to do with the taking or killing of Maddie.

The most recent search for evidence was a three-day dig last week in an area of scrubland near Praia da Luz where Brueckner was known to have wild camped.

German and Portuguese police used JCB-type machines and ground-penetrating radar, but found “nothing of consequence” – dashing hopes of pinning Brueckner with DNA evidence.

Los Angeles protestors torched and spat on an American flag while chanting “burn it down."

“Based on the presence of the cross and the pottery and glass pieces that were found, this tomb dates back to the Byzantine era."
