Katie Olivia Hopkins (born 13 February 1975) is an English media personality, far-right political commentator, and former columnist and businesswoman. She was a contestant on the third series of the reality show The Apprentice in 2007; following further appearances in the media, she became a columnist for British national newspapers, including The Sun and MailOnline. In 2015, Hopkins appeared on the fifteenth series of the reality show Celebrity Big Brother, where she finished as runner-up, and hosted her own talk show, If Katie Hopkins Ruled the World. The following year she became a presenter for the talk radio station LBC.
Hopkins' social media presence and outspoken views, especially on UK politics, social class, migrants and race, have attracted controversy, media scrutiny and legal issues. In 2016, her former employer MailOnline was forced to pay significant damages to a Muslim family whom she had falsely accused of extremist links. In the 2017 libel case Monroe v Hopkins, Hopkins was required to pay damages and legal costs to food writer Jack Monroe after making defamatory remarks on Twitter. Her role at LBC was terminated in May 2017 following her comments on Twitter about the Manchester Arena bombing.
Hopkins was permanently suspended from Twitter in June 2020 for what the company described as "violations of our hateful conduct policy", but her account was reinstated in November 2023. In July 2021, she was deported from Australia and had to pay a fine for deliberately breaching COVID-19 health regulations. That same year, Hopkins joined the UK Independence Party (UKIP).
