Far-right commentator Katie Hopkins has been dumped from Channel 7’s Big Brother VIP a day after boasting about flouting infection controls while in hotel quarantine in Sydney.

Ms Hopkins told her 261,000 Instagram followers she had opened her door to guards naked and not wearing a mask to “call out” Australia’s quarantine system and lockdowns.

“It has also been confirmed that while in Melbourne the staff member had not been to any identified exposure sites and had followed all appropriate procedures,” an AOC spokesman said.

The tram trips which have been listed as exposure sites include:-.

Seven Network has said that English media personality Katie Hopkins will not be on Big Brother VIP.

Ms Hopkins told her Instagram followers on Saturday in posts, now removed, that she was taunting guards at her hotel quarantine by answers the door undressed and without a mask.

“Seven and Endemol Shine Australia confirm that Katie Hopkins is not part of Big Brother VIP.

Seven and Endemol Shine strongly condemn her irresponsible and reckless comments in hotel quarantine,” a Seven spokesman said.

Federal Health Minister Greg Hunt wants English media personality Katie Hopkins sent back to the UK if it is found to be true that she deliberately flouted infection controls while in hotel quarantine in Sydney.

Mr Hunt said the actions as outlined in media reports were “dangerous, irresponsible and apparently deliberate” when questioned about her behaviour at a press conference on Sunday afternoon.

Ms Hopkins told her Instagram followers on Saturday, in now removed posts, that she had been trying to taunt guards at the hotel by answering the door undressed and without a mask.

“In my view if the facts are borne out of deliberately exposing someone to potential contact… then the strongest action should be taken,” Mr Hunt said.

Ms Hopkins is believed to be in quarantine to take part in Channel Seven’s upcoming Big Brother, alongside American celebrity Caitlyn Jenner.

“Instead of Big Brother watching Katie Hopkins, Katie Hopkins should be watching big brother from a long, long way away,” Mr Hunt said.
