The mother-of-three slammed Manchester United legend Marcus Rashford following his successful campaign to secure free school meals for children over the summer amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Her tweet read: “Dear @MarcusRashford, do you think women should think about how they are going to feed a child before they decide to have it?

It comes after Rashford wrote an open letter to MPs on Monday calling for the Government to reverse the decision not to extend the meal scheme.
Despite an initial rejection by the Department of Education, Rashford persevered and a £120million ‘Covid Summer Food Fund’ was announced on Tuesday.
Katie then caused another stir when she mocked the Black Lives Matter movement on Wednesday.
