‘I honestly cannot express how proud I am of the woman you’ve turned out to be…. I love you all the world my baby girl and I miss you like crazy’.
Molly currently lives in Dublin where she is an acting student at the prestigious Lir Academy at Trinity College Dublin, the alma mater of Normal People stars Paul Mescal and Éanna Hardwicke.
Last year Kerry claimed her and Brian’s marriage was ‘all fake and phoney’.
In an interview with The Mirror she said: ‘Obviously first marriage I thought it would last forever, I just went along with it.
‘It was just fake, it wasn’t real, it wasn’t meant to be – it wasn’t what I wanted, it was all fake and phoney.’
Since Kerry’s daughters are now adults, she revealed that there isn’t much need to see Brian anymore.
Kerry added: ‘Not seen him since [Molly’s 21st birthday] because the girls are grown up now, we’ve got no reason to talk.’
It comes after Kerry candidly detailed her traumatic upbringing in a brutally honest interview, as she reflected on how her marriages have stemmed from her long-standing desperation to have a father figure.

Opening up to Paul C. Brunson on his podcast, We Need To Talk, the Atomic Kitten star recalled how she was raised not knowing who her real father was, only discovering her biological dad after his death.
She revealed how her mother had a number of short-lived relationships with men she was led to believe were her dad, with one being physically abusive and forcing her and her mum to go into witness protection.
Kerry admitted being put in ‘unspeakable situations’ as a child, that ‘no child should ever be in, ever’ as she described going through four sets of foster parents and living in a shelter, while her mum battled mental health issues and drug addiction.
She explained: ‘But that was my normal, Paul. I did not know any different. Do you see what I mean? It took me a long time to realise that’s why that happened, that’s why I went for these men, that’s why I wanted a father figure.
‘I kept getting married because I was desperate to have a dad. It took me so long to realise I’m more than enough.’
Kerry is currently dating personal trainer Paolo Magaglione, 33, and has reportedly moved him into her home just two months after they met on Celebs Go Dating.
Prior to this she was in a six and a half year relationship with fiancé Ryan Mahoney before they split at the end of last year.
She was reportedly planning to have a child with Ryan before they split.
As well as her daughters with Brian, Kerry is also mum to Heidi, 18, and Max, 17, with ex husband Mark Croft and DJ, 11, from her relationship with the late George Kay.
