Wives across the country will be raising a collective glass of champagne tonight as news spreads that Katie Hopkins (left) has been given the sack from her bosses at the Met Office.
While Katie may have bowed out of The Apprentice on her own terms, there was no such joy for the Global Brand Consultant as Met Office chiefs decided to get even. Her employers were furious at the way Katie has dragged the name of their organisation through the mud and have taken no hesitation in wielding the axe on TV's top superbitch.
In a carefully worded explanation, a Met Office spokesman said this: "Katie was informed that we were terminating her period of probation with us.
"Although the probationary period is normally one year and Katie joined us in September 2006, we have the right to terminate her employment at any time during that period."
Katie's reaction to the firing is currently unkown, but the formerly-£90k a year candidate has gone a good way to restoring her loss of earnings by signing high profile media deals with OK magazine and the News of the World.
Surely it's only a matter of time before the most controversial contender in Apprentice history goes on to start the inevitable media career - as predicted on these pages weeks ago.
Full story: You're fired again, Katie!
