It's official; Katie Hopkins may just have been bested - and by none other than Natasha Hamilton.

The Celebrity Big Brother star apparently branded the mum-of-four as “fat” when she recently appeared on TV’s The Wright Stuff.

Her comments left the 32-year-old songstress fuming - and she quickly took to Twitter to respond.

Posting a photo of herself in workout gear, holding baby daughter Ella Rose, Natasha Hamilton wrote: "Today I was called fat by @KTHopkins on TV.

"Well, considering my baby is 5 months old, I look & feel bloody great!"

She finished powerfully: "Here's to my curves and every other woman out there who celebrates their beautiful bodies of all shapes and sizes!"

Later, speaking with The Liverpool Echo, Natasha explained that, while Katie's comments were intended to upset her, she is more worried that they will hurt new mums struggling to lose their baby weight.

She said: “Really, I don’t care what Katie’s opinion of me is but I do care about the effect her vicious rhetoric has on other women who may be struggling to lose weight after having babies.

“They are under enough pressure without having to hear Katie’s negative critique on bodies. Her comments are irresponsible, especially as she was directing them at a woman who has just recently given birth.

“She should be more careful because she has two young girls and we can only hope they don’t absorb any of her spiteful comments and end up with an eating disorder.”

Natasha added that she is proud of her figure - and insists that her boyfriend Ritchie Neville thinks she looks great too.

She said simply: “Five months after having Ella I am now a size eight because I have eaten healthily and have been exercising regularly.

"I am proud of my body, Ritchie likes it and I am a healthy mum who’s first priority was to breast feed my daughter.”

Strangely enough, Natasha's response seems to have silenced Katie Hopkins - which may just be a first!
