Kerry Katona made her much-anticipated return to morning television today in a revealing low-cut dress.

The Reality TV star spoke candidly about her battle with mental illness during the appearance on GMTV.

The interview with presenter Andrew Castle marked Kerry's first appearance on morning television since her controversial interview on ITV's This Morning last year.

She told Castle she had been "nationally embarrassed" by the interview in October, during which her speech was slurred.

Reports at the time claimed the former Atomic Kitten star was drunk, but the poor interview was later blamed on medication she had takent to treat her bipolar condition.

"I never took my medication last night because I was so embarrassed about what happened on This Morning I didn't want to slur,” she said today.

Kerry, who wore a low cut dress and black jacket, said she was still “annoyed” that This Morning bosses had failed to ask her about her condition before she was allowed on air.

“They just said to me 'have you been drinking?'" she told Castle.

But Kerry added that “in a way” the interview had been “a godsend because I was on the wrong medication”.

The 28-year-old is currently appearing in a reality show for MTV.
