It had left tour promoters and venue bosses scrambling as tickets had already gone on sale.
A source has now told The Sun: 'For the last few weeks, the team putting this together have been in crisis talks with Katie's people and they've managed to find a solution that suits everyone.
"Some of the dates will be rescheduled to fit around Katie's childcare clashes, meaning she is back in.
"Everyone behind the scenes is thrilled because it would have been a financial nightmare to pay back all the tickets that had been re-sold.
"Katie and Kerry are chuffed too as they didn't want to let any fans down.'
The Sun has contacted reps for Katie and Kerry for comment.
Kicking off in in Ellesmere Port on September 11, Katie and Kerry had plan to"share stories of their friendship, marriage and divorce, bankruptcy, 'I'm A Celebrity', the importance of family, their constant press attention and turning their lives around".
The famous friends are also offering fans the opportunity to pick up VIP meet and greet packages.
In the meantime, mum-of-five Katie has been enjoying sun and relaxation on holiday in Ibiza followed by Dubai.
During her time on the White Isle, she partied with the likes of Wayne Lineker and Conor McGregor.
Katie Price reveals exactly how much she weighs after fan concerns over her skinny frame
But she also sparked concern among fans after showing off her slimmed down figure in a series of swimwear pics.
Katie has since hit back at comments about her body, revealing exactly how much she weighs.
Attempting to put fears to rest, Katie shared a clip zoomed in on a set of scales and said: "Everyone is so obsessed with my weight. This is what I weigh. That. That is what I weigh."
It showed her weight as 7st 12lb, but without her 2120cc breast implants - which are thought to weigh around 4.87lb each - her weight is closer to 7st 2lb.
That puts her BMI at 17.2 which is below the healthy range and in the underweight category (18.5 and under).

And now expert lip-reader Nicola Hickling reveals that Kris appears appeared to be in a hurry to get back to her accommodations and didn't want to wait to share a water taxi with any other A-listers. has requested comment from Jenner's representative but hasn't yet received a response. At the start of the exchange, Kris — who secured her spot among the best-dressed stars at the wedding with her black-and-white ensemble — took what looked like a paper towel from a porter, possibly to dry off any water that might have splashed on her during the journey in the island city. 'Tell them I said thanks,' she appeared to say just before she descended into the docked boat. Kris Jenner, 69, and her boyfriend Corey Gamble, 44, appeared to have a tense conversation aboard a water taxi after Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's Venice wedding on Friday Bezos and Sánchez have been an item going back to 2019, and it was revealed that they had already legally married prior to the ceremony; she's pictured in her wedding dress on the cover of Vogue Hickling — who also decoded numerous other celebrity exchanges at the wedding — noted that two male porters were then seen speaking to each other, before one turned to Kris and appeared to ask, 'You want to travel alone?' Kris could be seen responding, and her boyfriend Corey, 44, stepped down into the boat behind her.

Corey went on to tap a porter on the chest, and he appeared to tell him, 'We're happy to travel on our own. It's what Kris would like to do.' But he didn't appear to have resolved the situation and gotten them on the move fast enough for the momager's liking. Kris could be seen turning to Corey as she brusquely inquired, 'What are you doing? Do you need to talk?' She continued: 'I told you... for God's sake... I'd like to travel alone.'

Surprisingly, Kris didn't even stick close to her celebrity daughters Kim and Khloé Kardashian and Kendall and Kylie Jenner, all of whom were attending the wedding.

It had a skirt with paisley and floral lace designs that was cut close over her hips before fanning out at the knee. It featured a long white train behind her, and her sheer veil also dragged behind her to create a second layer. Bezos and Sánchez tied the knot in an extravaganza that reportedly cost $20 million and involved the wedding party of more than 200 guests taking over the entire San Giorgio Maggiore island in Venice. Just minutes after saying 'I do' with Bezos, Sánchez took to Instagram to share a photo of herself and the groom, which she captioned with their wedding date. While he favored a more casual, summery suit on Thursday, Bezos opted for a classic black three-piece tuxedo for his wedding day.

Kerry Katona's daughter defends her mum's decision to join racy site
Kerry Katona's daughter , Heidi Croft, 18, has spoken for the first time to defend her mother Kerry from the 'hate' she receives due to being on racy site - OnlyFans Kerry Katona's daughter, Heidi, is speaking out against trolls who have labelled her mother a "prostitute" and "trollop". The Atomic Kitten singer's tumultuous life has been widely reported over the years, from her relationships to an abusive partner and financial difficulties that led to her being declared bankrupt twice. Despite her mother's success on OnlyFans, 18 year old Heidi is adamant: "I couldn't do OnlyFans. Mum has said I can't do it either. It is not the route in life I want to take, I want to be a lawyer or a property developer." "Mum sometimes struggles with men seeing her in that sexual way. I wouldn't like that at all. I've not paid to see her pictures on there, that would be weird, but I know what she does." In her first interview, the teenager asserts: "They should realise Kerry Katona is now rolling in it - she drives a Lamborghini. I couldn't be prouder of her. She has worked so hard. People forget OnlyFans is just a new thing; she has been singing, doing reality work and TV appearances for nearly 25 years. She has never stopped. She put us through private school, we go on amazing holidays, she just bought me clothes for the weekend." OnlyFans has also contributed to the purchase of a five-bedroom detached house in Cheshire. Kerry's upbringing in nearby Warrington was far less luxurious. The 44 year old, who grew up in foster care, resorted to topless modelling and lap dancing to make ends meet before landing her big break in music. She has starred in her own reality shows, won I'm A Celeb, and appeared on Big Brother and Dancing On Ice. In April, a fter making millions on adult subscription site OnlyFans, Kerry says her work on the X-rated platform is a non-negotiable when it comes to romantic relationships. The mum-of-five has been making money on OnlyFans since 2020 and charges $24.99 a month for fans to subscribe to her platform. At the time, following the news that boxer Nicola Adams' split from her partner Ella Baig was impacted by the latter's career on OnlyFans, Kerry explained whether the career path has ever caused her issues in relationships, and how she will handle it with any future partners. Kerry, who split from her fiancé Ryan Mahoney in November last year, wrote in her New! Magazine column: "I was sad to hear about Nicola Adams splitting up with her partner Ella Baig - I hope they're both doing OK. I read that Nicola said Ella's OnlyFans career impacted their relationship, which is a shame. "I can't relate too much because while I do OnlyFans, it didn't negatively impact my relationship when I was with Ryan, it's just a job and we both knew that. " Continuing that it won't be something that's up for discussion with future partners, Kerry shared: "I've not been in a relationship since then so I don't know the potential problems it can cause, but if I do meet someone new, it is something they're going to need to accept. It's what I do and how I make money for my kids, so they'd need to understand that." Kerry has spoken openly about the positives she has gained from her work on the site, previously detailing how it pulled her from near-bankruptcy to thriving financially. Detailing how the platform changed her life, , Kerry explained to The Sun in 2021: "It's been amazing for my career, I haven't stopped working. When I first did it I said to the kids 'I'm going to do this, and I'm going to go topless - if anyone has any problems, let me know' The former Atomic Kitten singer continued: "Our Lilly said she wasn't happy about it, and I said 'wait until the money comes in and see how you feel about it then.' "And once the money did start coming in they all had an iPad each and they had no problems! I've bought myself a Lamborghini Urus too, which comes in March."

My mum Kerry is called a ‘trollop' and a ‘sl*g' but she's rolling in it and driving a Lamborghini, says Heidi Katona
KERRY Katona's daughter Heidi breaks down in tears as she admits: 'I saw things as a child I should not have seen.' The Atomic Kitten star's turbulent life has been well publicised over the years; from relationships to an abusive partner and financial struggles that left her bankrupt twice over. 13 13 13 But although she's now turned her life around and is a millionaire thanks to OnlyFans, 18-year-old Heidi insists: "I couldn't do OnlyFans. Mum has said I can't do it either. "It is not the route in life I want to take, I want to be a lawyer or a property developer. "Mum sometimes struggles with men seeing her in that sexual way. I wouldn't like that at all. I've not paid to see her pictures on there, that would be weird, but I know what she does." Heidi is speaking out today, in her first interview, to hit back at the critics who have called former Mum of the Year Kerry a 'prostitute' and 'trollop'. The teen says: 'They should realise Kerry Katona is now rolling in it - she drives a Lamborghini. 'I couldn't be prouder of her. She has worked so hard. People forget OnlyFans is just a new thing; she has been singing, doing reality work and TV appearances for nearly 25 years. "She has never stopped. She put us through private school, we go on amazing holidays, she just bought me clothes for the weekend.' OnlyFans has helped pay for a five bedroom detached house in Cheshire, too. Growing up down the road in Warrington wasn't so luxurious. Kerry, 44, grew up in foster care, did topless modelling and lapdancing to pay the bills before getting her singing break. She has had her own reality shows, won I'm A Celeb, appeared on Big Brother and Dancing On Ice. But that turbulent life has seen Kerry go to rehab for a cocaine addiction that was so severe she had to have nose reconstruction. Heidi says: "I'd be stupid to even try drugs after what mum has been through - I know how destructive they can be.' She was too young to remember Kerry going to rehab but she has always been honest with her kids about taking them. 'Very anti drugs' Heidi says: 'I am very, very anti drugs. 'At school there was this older boy, I thought he was cute until I overheard him say, 'You know that Heidi Katona's mum, she's a coke head. She probably does drugs in front of her kids too'. 'I was upset, it was cruel; of course I've never seen mum doing drugs.' But what she has seen is difficulties during Kerry's relationships. Kerry has children Molly, now 23, and Lilly, 22, with first husband Westlife star Brian McFadden and Heidi and her younger brother Max, 17, shared drug dealer dad Mark Croft. Kerry's third husband George Kay was father to her youngest daughter, DJ, 11. Heidi, who has ditched the surname Croft for Katona, saw George as her dad. Throughout our interview Heidi is upbeat, positive, chatty and straight-talking but it is when we mention George that tears come to her eyes - and she talks about the things she saw as a child. George violently attacked Kerry and once even threatened to kill DJ by injecting her with heroin. They split in 2015. Years later, at just 39 he died of an accidental drug overdose. Heidi says: 'I am grieving for him. But I also saw my dad hitting my mum. She didn't realise at the time how much I saw. 13 13 13 13 'That is not nice, it was horrid, and has an effect on who I am now. I saw things as a child I should not have seen. 'Mum sent me to a therapist but I don't see the point of it. 'I try to be tough. Like mum I use humour to cover things up, but it's not always easy." Petite Heidi has had to be tough when defending Kerry. She says: 'There was one time I was walking through Alderley Edge when a group of lads started shouting, 'Your mum is a sl*g...a prostitute'. 'They started following me. I wasn't scared, I was angry. Mum has always told me to tell people like that where to go. "I respond to abuse by saying, 'Tell your dad to unsubscribe then!', or, 'You know that Lamborghini my mum drives… your dad helped pay for that'. 'Sometimes I say, 'Obviously, you've noticed that she's rich? Yeah! She's doing great'. 'I've never understood why someone would want to bully - or hate on - someone's parents like that. It's rude, plus, I can't control what my mum does.' 'Struggling for money' Even pensioners have attacked Kerry. Shaking her head Heidi says: 'I was in a cafe, and this woman started chatting to me about celebrities and said, 'Do you know who I can't stand…that Kerry Katona, she's a right tramp, a trollop on OnlyFans'. I didn't say a word.' Kerry and her, clearly intelligent, daughter are a joy to watch together; laughing and sharing jokes, with a relationship that looks more like friends than mother and daughter. She's done glamour before, she's been pictured with her boobs out, there's not a huge difference. This way she takes control and makes money from her sexuality Heidi But their teen years couldn't be more different. Kerry had started taking cocaine at 14 while Heidi only went out in Manchester for her first 'proper' night out in February to celebrate her 18th because, unlike many of her friends, she 'never went down the fake ID route'. She says: 'In the loos women were openly taking cocaine. They asked if I wanted some…no thanks! I thought, 'If you want to do it, fine, but I don't even want to see it'.' 13 And although she never wants to see her mum on OnlyFans she gave her backing to the idea when Kerry suggested it during Covid lockdown. After speaking to her then fiance Ryan Mahoney, who she split from last year, Kerry sat her kids down and said: 'I want to do OnlyFans - tell me if you have a problem with that'.' She explained exactly what the subscription site was. Heidi says: 'Lockdown meant her other work had stopped. We all agreed she should do it, she's a grown woman who makes her own decisions. 'She bought us all Airpods with her earnings. I thought, 'This is great'. 'She's done glamour before, she's been pictured with her boobs out, there's not a huge difference. This way she takes control and makes money from her sexuality. 'We didn't know at the time that she was struggling for money. She has hidden a lot from us over the years.' Heidi knows she is luckier than Kerry was growing up because 'mum will never let us forget that'. Now she has decided she wants to be famous and knows Kerry can help her. She says: 'People will scream 'nepotism' but mum can only open a door, I have to make a career work.' Heidi, who has appeared on The Voice, has her head screwed on. She is also doing A levels in sociology, psychology and criminology and looking at universities but would love to sing or go on I'm A Celeb. She doesn't feel she has 'enough life experience' for Love Island and wouldn't want her mum seeing her kissing on TV. But she would have had Love Island type lip filler - if her mum had her own way. Laughing, Heidi says: 'When I was about 13 I told mum I wanted them done. 'So when I turned 18 she was like, 'Right, I've spoken to the clinic, the doctor will do your lips… get them done, I think you should, they will look amazing' I said, 'No!' I'd changed my mind. But she was like, 'Go on. Why don't you?' For now I am happy as I am.' Life in the Katona household does seem happy. But surely Kerry Katona star has some faults? 'Yes, she does,' laughs Heidi, 'She embarrasses me in front of boys and I can recite her catchphrases before she even comes out with them. 'She can be so loud too…but then so can I. 'I couldn't ask for a better mum. She's my best friend - but I never tell her that or I'd never hear the end of it.' 13 Kerry Katona's love life timeline Kerry's first high-profile relationship was with Brian McFadden, who was then a member of the Irish boyband Westlife. The couple married in 2002 and had two daughters together, Molly and Lilly-Sue, but divorce beckoned just four years later after infidelity claims. In 2007, Kerry married Mark Croft, a former taxi driver. Their relationship was tumultuous and marked by financial difficulties and accusations of infidelity. They had two children together, Heidi and Maxwell, before divorcing in 2011. Kerry has spoken openly about the difficulties she faced during this period, including struggles with her mental health and substance abuse. Following this, she entered into a relationship with George Kay, a former professional rugby league player. They married in 2014 and had a daughter, Dylan-Jorge (DJ). However, their relationship was fraught with issues, including horrifying domestic abuse, and they separated in 2017. Kay died in 2019 after 'biting into a ball of cocaine'. Kerry later found love again with Ryan Mahoney, a fitness trainer. The couple became engaged in 2020, and Kerry described Ryan as a stabilising and positive influence in her life. After increasing speculation late in 2024, Kerry revealed they had split over a "breach in trust" and Ryan had moved out of her home.
