Conservative royal commentator Katie Hopkins – or as she labels herself, the “biggest b*tch in Britain” – appeared on 60 Minutes on Sunday night.
Unlike her usual shtick, Hopkins provided considered, thoughtful and entirely helpful insight on Meghan Markle.
Kidding.
You see, Hopkins is known for her bizarre comments, like the time she said “ginger babies” are “so much harder to love”. Alas, apparently her opinion is of the utmost relevance.
Interviewed by Karl Stefanovic, the trailer alone for the “How Meghan Markle lost her sparkle” segment went viral around the world.
In the segment, they tried to decipher why exactly the Duchess of Sussex has been receiving unfavourable media attention. In case you missed it, here are the seven most bizarre moments that occurred throughout the segment.
1. “Prince Harry is my Prince Harry.”
When asked by Stefanovic what Meghan ever did to her to receive such hate in return, Hopkins had a simple answer: “Everything”.
“It’s my royal family,” she exclaims with a level of seriousness that would be fit for an actual crime.
“This is my country. Prince Harry is my Prince Harry.” Possessive? No!
When Stefanovic suggests she may actually be jealous of the Duchess of Sussex, Hopkins is adamant: “I’m not jealous.
“Who wants to be Meghan Markle?”
Many people, Hopkins.

One of the most profound stories I ever remember watching on 60 Minutes was after the fall of Communism in Eastern Europe and they did a story on the Romanian orphanages. I was only young 12/13 but it's a story I've never forgotten because it was so heartbreaking and alien to the world I've grown up in. That was real journalism.
Now we have an interview with a sad, irrelevant and judgemental woman.
It's a sad sad sad decline.
Agreed
Kate Hopkins is only 44. I thought she was around 60. It must be all the hatred that aged her.
Not hatred, more likely the neurosugery she had a couple of years ago for her epilepsy.
