Brian McFadden confirms custody battle with Kerry Katona…but doesn’t actually sound that keen

Brian McFadden touched back down on European soil this week and last night broke his silence on the whole Kerry Katona issue.

The former Westlife star appeared on Ireland’s ‘The Late Show’ and confirmed that he would be fighting Kerry for custody of his two daughters.

“I’ll fight to get custody of my kids and bring them to Ireland.”

On the whole cocaine snorting issue Brian told TV host Ryan Tubridy: “It is manic. Kerry’s also just got arrested.”

‘She was always troubled but of late it seems to be escalating into something ridiculous,’ he explained.

However I wonder if Brian really wants his kids, or is he just doing this now because it is expected from him. He admitted last night that if he won custody he would return to Ireland but he actually would rather stay in Australia if given the chance..

‘I don’t have a career here,’ he said. ‘My career is destroyed in UK and Ireland. How am I supposed to look after my kids here?

‘How am I supposed to feed them. I can’t make money here, get a job on a building site. No one can get a job on a building site how am I going to get one.’

He then went on to suggest that his mum takes custody of the girls temporarily until Kerry gets herself sorted. Suggesting an out of court arrangement he added:

”ll bring them back here [Ireland] so me and my mum will look after them for the next six months to a year.

‘Let her go sort her life out and whatever problems she is having she needs to go get it fixed and in six months to a year they can go back.’

So in essence, Brian doesn’t really want the girls, but he knows if he leaves them with Kerry people will start to ask questions. She has become so messed up that he can no longer turn a blind eye, so he is hoping that she will hand the girls over to his mum for a year, dump Mark, get clean and take them back. I feel so sorry for those two little girls, they haven’t got a decent parent between them!
