Kerry Katona drinks bottles of bubbly and flexes her muscles with Austin Armacost during fun day out in Bradford

KERRY Katona sipped champagne and showed off her toned abs and arm muscles alongside CBB star Austin Armacost in Bradfrod today.

The singer, 37, and TV personality, 30, were joined by a female friend and the trio had plenty of laughs at The Great Victoria Hotel.

Former Atomic Kitten star Kerry wore ripped denim shorts and a black vest which showed off the large tattoo on her upper back.

She rolled up the vest to reveal her tum and then she encouraged Austin to do the same - and he eventually gave in.

He was more willing to show off his impressive guns as was Kerry after working hard in the gym this year.

The friends had a peck on the lips and posed for selfies and pictures with staff.

They cracked up as they made their way through two large bottles of fizz, celebrating Pride in the city.

Kerry recently insisted airports should not ban drinking alcohol during an appearance on This Morning - despite being pictured drunk on the tarmac outside a terminal two years ago.

She was filmed rolling around on the ground outside Gran Canaria Airport in 2016.

Kerry had her trousers around her ankles as she topped up her tan following a 4am boozing session.

But despite her antics making the headlines at the time, she doesn't agree with Ryanair's request for airports to introduce a pre-10am booze ban for passengers.

Appearing on This Morning, she explained what was going on in 2016, telling Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield: "There was a heatwave and I was trying to get as much sun as I could possibly get.

"I was on my own, I'm not the best flyer and I hadn't drank in eight months.

"I'd had one too many drinks on the plane itself, then the fresh air hit me, not making any excuses, it's not my finest hour."

While Kerry didn't agree on a total ban on alcohol being consumed by holidaymakers in airports, she did think some precautionary measures should be taken.

She said: "I'll be honest with you, I agree to a certain extent [with the ban request], something should be done, as there's been times when I've been on a flight and there's a stag do and it's quite intimidating.

"Something should be done regarding stag and hen dos, bringing in a breathalyser or something.

"But for me, my holiday starts in the airport with the girls, one or two drinks before you get on the flight.

"I'll be honest with you, when I'm going away on holiday, even if it's a seven o'clock flight, I think most of us gravitate towards the bar."

Kerry said it was a "British thing" to start your holiday at the airport with a tipple.

Kerry Katona defends outrageous airport 'sunbathing'

She added: "I don't drink at home, so when I do get to go away without the children, so - I hold my hands up - I probably do indulge too much when I get to the airport, getting a drink down my neck and getting the party started."

But as Phil read out all the recent problems airlines have had with drunken passengers, she conceded: "Take control of the situation, maybe issue tokens before you get to the bar and allow only two drinks per person.

"I think that's reasonable rather than banning it completely."
