Well, it's a step up from Mark Croft: Kerry Katona puckers up for a kiss with a sea lion during a day out with her children

Lip smackingly good: Kerry Katona kisses a sea lion at Knowsley Safari Park in Preston, Lancashire during a day out with her children Heidi and Max

It hasn't taken Kerry Katona long to move on from Mark Croft, and the latest recipient of a kiss from the former Atomic Kitten singer is a damn sight better looking than her ex.

The 29-year-old puckered up for a smooch with a sea lion at Knowsley Safari Park in Preston, where she took her youngest two children Heidi Elizabeth, three, and Maxwell Mark, two.

And, although he would no doubt make a better partner than her ex, who recently admitted he spent £1.4million of her money on cars, Kerry didn't seem too impressed with the kiss.

She wiped her mouth afterwards and made a disgusted face.

Miss Katona's son Maxwell turned two on Sunday, so the day out may well have been in aid of his birthday.

Kerry spent some time watching the sea lions perform before she was invited to get a little closer to one of them, ending up giving it a full kiss on the lips.

She also took her children on some of the fair ground rides at the safari park, including a mini-rollercoaster and a merry-go-round where they sat in a yellow Rolls Royce.

Both Heidi and Max looked overjoyed as the sat behind the steering wheels on the Rolls Royce dressed up in their little outfits.

Miss Katona wore a blazer over a grey top with a black waistcoat and leggings for the day out which followed an earlier trip to the same zoo earlier this week.

On that occasion she bumped into Liverpool and England footballer Steven Gerrard and his wife Alex Curran.

The smooch was Kerry's second this week, having planted a kiss on the cheek of one eager young fan yesterday when she visited family in Warrington.

She split from husband Mark Croft earlier this year and has been slowly turning her life around ever since.

So far she has signed a new management contract with CAN Associates, who also look after Peter Andre, bagged a new television show, purchased a new car, embarked on a new fitness regime and begun work on having a tattoo of her ex-partner's name removed from her neck.

The fallout from her breakup appears to have spurred the reality star on to improving her life and moving in the right direction.
