The Home Affairs minister has directed Border Force to “urgently review” the visa of British right-wing commentator Katie Hopkins, who boasted in elaborate detail about breaking hotel quarantine rules on social media.
The media personality is quarantining in a Sydney hotel ahead of a speculated role in the upcoming season of Celebrity Big Brother, broadcast by the Seven Network.
On Saturday morning, she told Instagram followers that she had been trying to flout restrictions in her hotel by answering her door naked and without a face mask. The police officer who checked me in told me when they knock on my door I have to wait 30 seconds ’til I can open the door. Then I can open the door but only if I wear a face mask, she said in a now-deleted Instagram video.
Big Brother winner Reggie Sorensen has slammed Katie Hopkins after the British columnist revealed her plans to deliberately flout restriction rules while in hotel quarantine.
Hopkins, 46 - who is rumoured to have flown to Australia as a VIP for a celebrity appearance on Big Brother - infamously called out lockdowns in Sydney and Melbourne on Sunday during an Instagram live video.
During the video, Hopkins openly mocked the 14-day hotel quarantine rules before revealing her plans to deliberately break them by opening her door completely naked and mask-free to workers who deliver her food.
After viewing the footage, a visibly angry Reggie tweeted: As a former Big Brother Housemate who won the hearts of Australians I am lost for words to see that #katiehopkins is going on VIP Big Brother.
