EXCLUSIVE: Kerry Katona and Katie Price were pictured enjoying a Dubai getaway together, but the reality behind the trip was far more complicated, as Kerry explains in her column<\/p>\n

From romantic getaways and surprise goodbyes to big life decisions and family milestones, it\u2019s been another eventful week in Kerry Katona\u2019s <\/a>world.<\/p>\n

What was meant to be a dreamy first Valentine\u2019s Day in Dubai with boyfriend Paolo quickly turned into a solo trip under the sun after a sudden work emergency called him back to the UK. But if there\u2019s one thing Kerry proves time and time again, it\u2019s that she knows how to turn lemons into lemonade \u2013 even if that means spending the most romantic day of the year poolside with her emails!<\/a><\/p>\n

In this week\u2019s column, Kerry opens up about the highs and lows of her whirlwind trip, reveals why Dubai has got her seriously considering a major move abroad with her children, and shares her thoughts on why celebs are flocking to the UAE…<\/a><\/p>\n

DUBAI DISASTER<\/p>\n

Paolo and I travelled to Dubai for a romantic getaway for our first Valentine\u2019s Day, where we had a mega-quick 20-minute catch up with Katie Price<\/a> and her husband Lee. But unfortunately, during the trip, Paolo had to go back to the UK for a work emergency. I got to spend literally 14 hours with him before he had to leave, which meant I was left alone in Dubai, which we were both gutted about.<\/a><\/p>\n

A BIG MOVE?<\/p>\n

I can see why so many celebrities move to Dubai. It\u2019s definitely somewhere I\u2019d consider moving to. It\u2019s safe, clean, it\u2019s lovely, everyone looks after each other \u2013 in fact I could probably see myself living there this time next year. And my children would come with me.<\/p>\n

Kate and Rio Ferdinand<\/a> moved there last August and I can see why she might be struggling like she mentioned last week \u2013 sometimes it does take time to adapt.<\/p>\n

HEIDI\u2019S BIRTHDAY<\/p>\n

We\u2019re off to celebrate my Heidi\u2018s 19th birthday this weekend. I can\u2019t believe how old she is getting! Time flies so fast. We\u2019ve got her tickets to go and watch Magic Mike Live. Me and Paolo are not going to the actual show \u2013 she\u2019s going to go with her friends. But then we\u2019re all going to head out for a nice dinner together.<\/a><\/p>\n

MISS YOU!<\/p>\n

Of course I missed the kids while I was away, but I don\u2019t think the kids were missing me as I barely heard from them while I was out in Dubai! My youngest, Dylan-Jorge, is obviously in school at the moment and the rest were all fine. I spent the time by myself, sitting by the pool and going through emails, trying to catch up on work in the sunshine.<\/p>\n

VALENTINE\u2019S DAY<\/p>\n

It looked like I would be spending Valentine\u2019s Day in Dubai alone because of Paolo\u2019s work emergency, and I was thinking, it\u2019s just one day in a year \u2013 we can celebrate our love for one another every other day, like we do anyway. The silver lining was me sunbathing and making the most of some down time before heading on tour with Abba Mia in May. But then I had a change of heart and decided to fly home early to be with him. As I write, I don\u2019t know what he\u2019s got up his sleeve, but I don\u2019t care, as long as we\u2019re together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"EXCLUSIVE: Kerry Katona and Katie Price were pictured enjoying a Dubai getaway together, but the reality behind the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":300362,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[93,61,60,4602,1794,10376],"class_list":["post-300361","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-katie-price","tag-kerry-katona","tag-rio-ferdinand"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/300361","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=300361"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/300361\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/300362"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=300361"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=300361"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=300361"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
