Peaches Geldof and Katie Hopkins famously crossed swords live on This Morning during a debate about attachment parenting.

"Peaches told me how dedicated she was to her children"

She wrote: "I sat on the sofa at This Morning with her and listened to her lecture me about parenting. Peaches told me how dedicated she was to her children and that her way was the only way.

"She pointed out my failings as a mum. I’ll admit my flaws are many. I have never puréed a carrot. I have never strapped my babies to my body like a woman scared of a pushchair and I think formula milk is fantastic.

"But one thing my children can depend on is that I will always be here for them. I may go to work but I always come home.

"And I will continue to be here for them until someone else decides my time is up."

She added furiously: "Celebrity status must not — and cannot — be allowed to excuse dark deeds.

"A celebrity mum is no less a criminal than a 16-year-old mum from a council estate."

"If you choose drugs over your kids, your kids should be taken away. If I died of a drug overdose I can guarantee I would not receive the impunity Peaches has been granted.

"Before you angrily remind me of “those two poor boys”, remember, I am not the one who left them behind."

Katie remained notably quiet following Peaches’ death in April, later writing in her weekly newspaper column that ‘Peaches wouldn’t want me to tweet.’

It seems as if, now that coroner Roger Hatch has ruled that Peaches died with 3mg of diamorphine heroin per litre of blood in her system, Katie has changed her mind.
