The Atomic Kitten star, 40, looked radiant as she beamed a smile in a photo of the pair and said: ‘I’m so grateful for you coming in to my life.’

Marnii is a dating app the couple have recently launched, saying they want to help other couples ‘find their happy ever after’. 

Kerry said: ‘I’ve been married four times and I have finally found my partner for life on a dating app – which I never thought was possible. 

‘It’s important for me to let others know that there is someone out there, and what better time is there to meet potential love interests in a new and exciting year, after being isolated and locked in for the last year.’

While Ryan added: ‘2021 is all about having a fresh start and finding new love. We wanted to launch a new platform that allows others to find love and their happy ever after, just like we did.’

It comes after Kerry recently said she’s in no rush to have anymore children, but would use a surrogate to have one with Ryan if she changes her mind.

The singer, who accepted Ryan’s proposal in August last year, also told how the pair are in ‘no rush’ to get married, joking that may even elope in secret.   

In a new interview, Kerry reflected on her colourful love life and noted that in the past she would rush into marriage and babies, but declared that this time, things are different. 

Kerry was married to Brian McFadden from 2002 to 2006, Mark Croft from 2007 to 2011 and the late George Kay from 2014 to 2017.

The former singer shares daughters Molly, 19, and Lilly-Sue, 18, with Brian, Heidi, 13, and Maxwell, 12, with Mark and youngest daughter Dylan-Jorge, five, with George.

Reflecting on the changes in her life, she told The Sun: ‘After three years I’m normally engaged, married, pregnant and divorced, and we’ve only just got engaged, so we’re doing something completely different this time but we’re in no rush to go get married.’

She went on to say that the couple have yet to set a date for their wedding, but added that they may potential ‘run off’ and tie the knot without telling a soul.   

And with no immediate plans for their nuptials, Kerry also revealed that kids are also off the table, but if they do change their mind, she wouldn’t be the one to carry their baby. 

Discussing the idea of expanding her brood, she exclaimed: ‘I’ve already got a bleeding orphanage here! I don’t want any more but if I was going to have a child, it would be by surrogacy.’
