It is thought that her departure is down to comments made on Twitter after the Manchester terror attack, in which she stated that their needs to be a "final solution".

Since she started at LBC, there have been several petitions for the radio station to remove her, with the most recent coming after her tweet about Netflix show Dear White People and the Black Lives Matter movement.

Hopkins is thought to have tweeted and deleted the post: "Dear Black People. If your lives matter why do you stab and shoot each other so much."

That petition raised more than 45,000 signatures to have Katie removed from LBC, where she had a weekly show on Sunday.
