“In this case, the account has been permanently suspended for violations of our hateful conduct policy.”
Katie has built a career on her outspoken and often offensive comments.
Most recently she caused shockwaves online after hitting out at the ongoing Black Lives Matter movement.
Taking to Twitter on June 17, Katie wrote: “Today is #whiteoutwednesday. I will shortly be posting a picture of my arse. Thank you.”
Katie also lashed out at football player Marcus Rashford after he lobbied the government to continue school meals for the poorest members of society throughout the six weeks summer holidays due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
Far from impressed, Katie tweeted the Man United ace: “Do you think women should think about how they are going to feed a child before they decide to have it?
“I do not want to pay to feed other people’s kids. You are welcome to.”

Katie is yet to comment on the news she has been removed from Twitter for good.
