Having clawed her way back from the brink of bankruptcy after her ex-husband Mark Croft wasted all her cash, Kerry Katona, 30, could be forgiven for being a little wary of the next guy who comes sniffing around.
Now can reveal that Kerry has hired a private investigator to complete background checks on all potential suitors.
‘Kerry was very hurt by Mark and he took her for everything she had,' a friend tells Now.
‘She was totally destroyed, emotionally and financially.'
Kerry, who now lives in Surrey, split with Mark, 38, seven months ago.
But instead of being able to make a clean break, she was left with nearly £500,000 of debt after discovering he'd spent all her money on fast cars and fruitless business ventures.
Kerry has since dated painter and decorator Adam Waldron, 33.
But that soon ended in tears after she dumped him, citing his drinking as a reason.
Adam's family have denied the accusation.
Now she's dating kick boxer Scott Gibson, who she met on the dating website Match.com.
And it seems her investigator - who's helped Kerry with various situations in the past - has put her mind at rest as she happily arranged to meet Scott for a drink two weeks ago at a bar in Brighton.
‘The private eye finds out where they live, what their financial situation is and if they have children, ex-wives, a criminal record or any other skeletons to hide,' says the friend.
‘Although Kerry loves a bad boy, Mark lost a lot of her money and she doesn't want to end up high and dry again.
‘Her management fully support her decision to safeguard her finances.'
