Brian McFadden took to Twitter at the weekend, going on an uncharacteristic rant at Kerry Katona.

The former Westlife star was said to be furious at a series of tell-all interviews his ex-wife has given.

In the latest, Kerry describes how he has almost no relationship with their daughters, Mollie and Lily-Sue.

‘He phones the girls about five times a year but Lilly doesn't really know who he is,' Kerry revealed.

‘I'm not bitter, I'm just sad for him. He's missing out on two amazing girls.'

But it seems this finally tipped Brian over the edge, and he let out a furious Twitter rant.

FACT... I call my girls at least twice a week and have a beautiful relationship with my daughters,' the fuming star Tweeted.

‘I've kept my silence too long and I can't keep it any more.

‘It's killing me and my beautiful fiancée and my mum and dad and friends. ENOUGH.'

Brian also, added: 'Kerry Katona, you are dead to me!'

Oh dear.

But it seems the star eventually thought better of his acid comments, as they were later deleted from the site.

‘He took the comments down because he doesn't want to stoop to Kerry's level,' a friend told the Sun.

‘It's unlikely they'll ever speak again.'

What do you think of Brian's Twitter rant? Should he be in charge of the children, or are they better off with Kerry Katona? Let us know your thoughts in the comments box below.

Firstly, I think it's tacky of Katona to publicise this - if she's bothered by the set up then she should speak to her ex in private instead of dragging this out in public, but then what do you expect from her? I feel so sorry for those poor children.

I don't know how Brian lives his life these days, but since Kerry's been in the news for all kinds of drug and alcohol abuse then maybe the kids is better of with their dad?
Comment by Frida on April 19 12:35

Why does he live the other side off the world? , f he is concerned about his daughters surely he should be closer to them. If my children where being brought up by an ex drug abuser I wouldnt live that far away.
Comment by carrie on April 19 13:03

I agree. It must be heartbreaking for Brian to stand by and watch the way kerry behaves, knowing she is looking after their children - who knows what they have been exposed to
Comment by Ruby on April 19 13:05

She is just the most awful woman! she shouldn't be allowed the have the kids. In fact I am surprised she still does. I am sure no one else would be allowed in that situation. She is simply a disgrace.
Comment by Kate on April 19 13:14

Kerry is, was, and always be a vile and tacky woman. What else would anyone expect from her than selling lies for money. It's a wonder Brian managed to hold his tongue for so long. He has twice tried to seek custody of his children but - for whatever reason - the British courts decided that they were better off with Kerry (and Mark Croft)... the mind boggles, really.
I hope that, if nothing else, her new management company will be able to teach her that a little class and dignity go a long way.
Comment by Aisling on April 19 15:16

At least those two girls have one decent parent, it seems (dad) but how about her younger ones with that 'as vile and tacky' Mark Croft? I really feel sorry for them two.
Comment by N on April 19 15:30

Although I don't agree with Kerry Katona's mothering skills and I certainly have the utmost sympathy for those children in her care, I can't quite empathise THAT much with Brian McFadden as he lives in Australia and I believe he should live closer in order to look after his children considering his ex wifes history and recent scandals. I believe that Brian should have a stronger role in these girls lives so that they have a chance...
Comment by C on April 19 16:55

I'm no fan of Kerry but I find it hard to find sympathy for a man who walked out of his marriage and children then moved to the other side of the world. When it was clear that Kerry was not in a fit state to looked after his children he applied for custody and then dropped the case when it emerged that it was his Mum who would be looking after the children, not him. Hardly a concerned father in my book!
Comment by Sharon on April 19 20:36

I have always said that Lilly-Sue and Mollie should have been with thier dad from the outset, it doesn't bear thinking about what those poor children have been through and what they have seen going on in that house, they will be mentally scarred for life. It must be terrible for Brian knowing what is going on, he should have been awarded custody of the girls from the outset, the law and courts in this country have a lot to answer for. Brian is entitled to his own life and as he's said before the girls would have a wonderful life and new start in Australia if the Judges get the facts right and give him full custody of them both she doesn't even deserve to be able to see them let alone have them in the same house with her !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Comment by SHIRLEY on April 19 23:49

Brian Mcfadden should spend less time slagging off his ex wife on twitter and spend more time with his children (not just phone calls!). Then again them kids are probably better off without him!what a role model!
People forget he left his wife and children and started a new life in Australia. It easy for him to point the finger at Kerry when he lives halfway around the world!
Im in no way condoning Kerrys past behaviour but he's no saint either. There is a reason that the courts have refused him custody of his children twice. Kerry at least tries.
His comments on twitter reflect his selfish attitude as no thought was given to his children who will one day they read them and see for themselves how selfish their father was.
Comment by Kerry on April 22 01:45

1. HE is a an absent father he choices to live half way around the world form his children. And he call them tiwce a week, should we all clap at that.
2. A good father would fight tooth and niel to have them remove from a mother who take drug, drinks and is a miss most of the time but does he NO he bissy live hi new live with his new girlfrend
3. Both of them are in the wrong i feel sorry for the children who grow up with this and have no one fight there croner .
Comment by WEE KITTY on April 23 14:10

After watching tonights 'Kerry and Me'...I would think Brian is distraught at the way Mark spoke to his girls, and they clearly were used to being spoken to like that. Disgusting, I've seen many a child in similar situations be watched by authorities!!!! Brian, get your girls and quick!!!
Comment by H on June 25 00:25

I empathise with Kerry and understand why she is like she is,She had no love in her early life so she is looking for it anywhere.She will come through this as a stronger person and slagging her off does not help..If the people that are quickly judging her had had the start in life she had they might have a little sympathy with the girl.. I do hope now that she finds a strong man to look after her instead of the lame dogs that she's had before. They take all and then run at the first hurdle.. bless you kerry I am on your side . We all make mistakes and some of us take a little longer to learn from them as we don't feel worthy enough for the best things in life to happen . Take control girl and kick them all in to touch. concentrate on your children and the right guy will find you!!Stop looking sweetheart , you are trying too hard . Learn to love yourself first and the right guy will love you

I think Kerry Katona is a brilliant mother, she has made alot of mistakes but she is putting them all behind her and making ago of her life and making things better for her chidren, Everyone makes mistakes, kerry just got in with the wrong man! (Mark Croft!!!) She is NowBeing a better mum and a better person in herself. She is going through alot at he minute, Changed homes, went through divorce, Give her a break, I also think Bryan is a great dad but I will not slag kerry katona off atall for any of this because she has still looked after her children full time and If bryan was so bothered he would of took the kids but instead he lives half way across the other side of the world, Kerry does all the work GIVE HER A BREAK!!!!!
