Who is Katie Hopkins?
Hopkins was born on February 13, 1975 in Barnstaple to middle-class parents. She started attending a private school at the age of three and stayed there until she was 16. She began playing sports and learning to play the violin and piano, but her ambition was to become a colonel in the army. Katie continued her education at the University of Exeter and the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst, where she completed her military training. However, she was unable to join the army due to epilepsy.
Not to be deterred, Hopkins became a business consultant and moved to New York for a while, returning in 2005. A year later, she landed a marketing job as a global brand consultant for the Met Office,
Shortly after starting his new job, Hopkins took unpaid leave as part of his probationary period to appear on the reality show’s third season. The Apprentice, hosted by Alan Sugar, a successful entrepreneur who made his money in electronics. She had to compete with other applicants for a £100,000-a-year job for the businessman. Hopkins pulled out of the show despite being offered a spot on the final episode, due to custody issues with her children.
During her time on The Apprentice, Hopkins hasn’t stopped making inflammatory statements on camera. Her vitriol was aimed at fellow contestants, overweight people, maternity leavers and people watching shopping channels on TV.
After leaving the show, Hopkins was fired from his job at the Met Office for failing to meet the requirements of his probationary period. Building on the wave of popularity sparked by her highly controversial comments, she began appearing on several other TV shows, including 8 out of 10 Cats, the Friday Night Project I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out here!, question time, celebrity Fat Brother and worst of all, on This Morning, where she said she would never allow her children to interact with other children named after geographical locations, even if, wonderfully ironically, his own daughter was called India.
In 2017, she started her own chat show, If Katie Hopkins Ruled the World, which was shut down after the first season due to very low ratings. She worked in the broadcasting industry as a show presenter for LBC, a London-based radio station, until she was fired following comments she made on Twitter at about the Manchester Arena bombing.
Hopkins has also worked as a writer for several newspapers and magazines such as Express & Echo, The Sun and the Daily Mail website where she was fired in November 2017. Hopkins believes she is the new Jesus for supporters and commentators of extreme right, extreme right, ready to express what others do not want to say.
