Kerry Katona indulged herself in a spot of budget Christmas shopping today with husband Mark Croft.

The reality star, who is believed to be facing eviction from her luxury mansion, was spotted leaving Argos laden with bags of toys.

Mother-of-four Kerry wrapped up warm in faux-fur gilet and boots – but unusually didn’t want to be seen by photographers.

The former Atomic Kitten singer kept her eyes firmly to the floor as she departed the store to load up her 4×4, hiding under a woolly hat.

At the weekend it was reported that Kerry looks set to face eviction from her £1.5million home after failing to keep up with mortgage repayments.

Kerry and her four children face the threat of homelessness after she was presented with a repossession order for her luxury home in Wilmslow, Cheshire

She is said to be devastated at the news, which could see her having to turn to state benefits.

Her mum Sue, 50, spoke to The Sun newspaper and revealed that she faces a similar plight because the £130,000 terraced home Kerry bought for her must be sold to pay the ex-Atomic Kitten star’s tax bill.

Sue said: ‘She’s a total mess and I’m homeless because of it. She’s ruined her life and mine.’

Kerry squandered thousands of pounds on sports cars for hubby Mark Croft, but lost her £290,000-a-year deal as the face of Iceland stores after a cocaine scandal.

In August this year a video showing the troubled star clearly taking cocaine in her own bathroom was obtained by the News Of The World.

In the video Kerry was seen in an en-suite in her home where she used a rolled up £20 note to snort the Class A drug.

Katona had allegedly been drinking alcohol for four days before taking the cocaine – she then reportedly went to school to pick up her children.

Ex-husband Brian McFadden is said to have since consulted his lawyers in a bid to win custody of their two daughters Molly, 8, and Lily-Sue, 6.

The former Westlife singer will be spending Christmas away from his Australian fiance Delta Goodrem, to spend time with the two girls in his native Ireland.
