It comes after Kerry vowed to help Katie ‘turn her life around’ following her split from Carl.
Reality star Kerry, 43, and Katie have been friends for years after appearing on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! together in 2004.
The pair spent New Year’s Eve together last month and it’s now emerged Kerry is determined to help Katie get over any heartache following her split from Carl.
A source told Closer magazine: ‘In the past, when she’s been single, Katie has been known to go a bit wild as a bit of a coping mechanism, so pals are hoping she won’t be heading into trouble again.
‘Kerry has really been encouraging Katie to slow down a bit and look after herself.’
The insider added: ‘Katie leans quite heavily on Kerry for support and guidance, and Kerry wants to help Katie continue to turn her life around this year.
‘Katie had some low moments in 2023 and it’s heartbreaking that she doesn’t seem able to move on.’
It is claimed Kerry will be ‘blunt, honest and candid’ with Katie if she feels she needs to be to keep her on the right track, with the source insisting: ‘Kerry doesn’t take any rubbish.’

Katie and Carl previously split towards the end of November and unfollowed each other on Instagram but appeared to have reconciled for the Liverpool outing before going their separate ways once again.
Days later, Carl took a swipe at his ex-fiancée Katie Price as he posed while embracing a mystery woman’s legs, adorned with a tattoo reading ‘Game Over’.
The car dealer had been enjoying a Thailand getaway with his friends, during which he crouched down to the ground holding the woman’s legs as she stood from behind.
He showed off the bold tattoos on his companion’s legs, displaying the words ‘Game Over’ on the back of her thighs as she wore mini denim shorts.
Smouldering into the lens, Carl repeated the words in his caption, in an apparent nod to his relationship status with the star.

In July last year, Katie and Carl were said to be planning a secret wedding, with Katie snapped trying on a gorgeous white gown a few months later in November.
The pair have been in a turbulent relationship since July 2020, getting engaged the following April.
But things were said to be going full steam ahead with wedding plans, with Katie said to be keen to run off and ‘elope’ with Carl as a source claimed she ‘loves the thrill of getting married’.
However, the TV personality’s wedding plans do not include her mother Amy, with it said that she won’t tell her when she gets married due to her disapproval of Carl.
A source told OK! magazine: ‘Katie is planning on having a secret wedding with Carl, then a big party afterwards. It will be soon. She loves the thrill of getting married and wants to do it again.’
Sharing further details on their plans, they went on: ‘Katie’s keen to run off and wed Carl at a registry office. The kids will be there, but she won’t tell her mum until it’s done.
‘Katie knows Amy would be fuming and tell her not to do it. She keeps suggesting to Carl they elope to Gretna Green.’
Katie has been married three times. She was married to Peter Andre for four years, and then tied the knot with Alex Reid in 2010.
They split after 11 months of marriage and Katie went on to marry Kieran Hayler in 2013, but they broke up in 2018.
Now, the former Celebrity Big Brother winner has revealed why she’s reluctant to get married again, and claims the men she has dated just ‘want to be famous’.
On The Katie Price Show podcast, Katie’s sister Sophie asked: ‘Would you get married again?’ Katie replied: ‘The trouble is, it costs ME money to get married and it costs ME money to get divorced.

‘So I haven’t really been in a good situation, so for me to get married again, they have to tick the right boxes, or they have to have more to lose than me because I’m just sick of these cling-ons that turn into Mr Price’s and then want to be famous and all of this. I’m just sick of it, I just want to meet someone who wants me for me…
‘But yeah I would get married, shall we organise it, of course I would bloody get married again, I want a fairytale. Yes, I would get married again and I want the full shebang.
‘I just want it to be right, I never wanted to get divorced and marry again and again.
‘To have that one person, no drama, there’s nothing worse than when your family don’t get on with them. I like to be settled, when I’m settled then everything else goes good.’
