Katie Hopkins has launched a scathing attack on Holly Willoughby after lashing out at Kate Garraway in a vile online rant.
The 42-year-old presenter made her TV comeback on Dancing on Ice over the weekend, but outspoken media personality Katie wasn’t impressed.
In an Instagram video, she criticised ITV’s decision to bring Holly back, suggesting it would have been a “legal nightmare” to sack her. She also made some unkind remarks about the mother of three’s appearance on the show.

In the vicious rant, which she posted on Instagram, she also called out This Morning’s Alison Hammond and The Chase host Bradley Walsh. She said: “At this point, for ITV to get rid of Holly Willoughby would cost the earth. Can you imagine repetitional damage, you know, PTSD, all the rest of it. Having to work with Alison Hammond.
“So instead they’ve put her back on Dancing on Ice. The British public we’re like, ‘What the f**k’s she doing back? I thought they’d got rid of her, what’s she doing?’ She looks a bit like an ex-wife at a wedding, doesn’t she? Kind of desperate and overdressed. Or one of those patients you find staggering around the wrong ward when they’ve taken too many Prozac.”
She continued: “Bradley Walsh’s kid looks a bit like the working experience kid doesn’t he – just turned up with absolutely no clue. An apprentice at a garage that’s never seen a spanner”
In another shocking video, Katie was seen sipping wine and making a distasteful joke about GMB presenter Kate, hinting she would make a documentary titled Life After Derek, referring to the star’s late husband Derek Draper, who sadly passed away earlier this month.
She said: “This is where I get such a b****ing where people go ‘That is a line! That crosses a line! How dare you laugh?’… Or the other thing people will say is ‘You should be ashamed of yourself.” Unsurprisingly, her comments sparked outrage online.

One user wrote: “Your active celebration of the pain and suffering of others reflects the emptiness of your soul”, while another added: “Katie, why do you find the death of someone’s husband amusing? This is inhumane. Even by your standards.”
One upset Instagram follower accused Katie of “weaponising someone’s tragic death for your grift”. Another fan expressed their disappointment, saying: “I actually love 99% of your points most of the time tbf, and I get your point here. But a man has just lost his life and two kids have just lost there dad and the laughing is just a step to far in my opinion. Very disrespectful.”
