There is no verified figure for Katie Hopkins’ net worth, and there is a specific reason: her company was dissolved on 15 February 2022. With no company, there are no accounts, and nothing has been filed since.
But the accounts that were filed tell a story that no page about her finances has told, because nobody has read them. Katie Hopkins Limited’s shareholders’ funds peaked at £173,714 at 30 June 2017, then fell to £22,590 twelve months later — a drop of about 87% in a single year.
That year maps almost exactly onto the documented events: a libel judgment in March 2017, a radio contract ended in May, a newspaper column ended in October, and a house sold the following March. The filings and the news agree with each other.

Source: Companies House, read 20 October 2026. A company that has been dissolved files nothing further, which is why no current figure can be calculated.
That final row matters more than anything else on this page. Several sites still describe her “business setup” in the present tense and link to company data. The company has not existed since February 2022.
Seven Years of Filed Accounts
Here is what was actually filed, year by year. These are shareholders’ funds — what the company was worth on paper at each year end.
Shareholders’ funds at each year end as filed at Companies House. The 2020 accounts were the last filed before the company was dissolved in February 2022.
| Year to 30 June | Shareholders’ funds | Cash at bank | Owed within one year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2014 | £2,135 | — | — |
| 2015 | £139,089 | — | — |
| 2016 | £158,383 | — | — |
| 2017 | £173,714 | £50,804 | £73,813 |

Two things stand out beyond the headline collapse. Money owed by the company more than tripled between 2017 and 2018, from £73,813 to £244,060, and rose again the following year. And cash at bank fell from £50,804 to £3,830 across two years — at one point the company held under four thousand pounds.
What Happened in the Collapse Year
The accounts to 30 June 2018 cover July 2017 to June 2018. Set the documented events against that window and the picture is unambiguous.
A note on precision: sources differ on exactly when the voluntary arrangement was entered — one account gives May 2018 while the supporting article is dated September 2018. We have not resolved that, because resolving it would mean picking one over the other without evidence.
The Legal Costs, Documented
| Matter | Date | Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Monroe v Hopkins | March 2017 | Lost. £24,000 damages plus £107,000 costs. Appeal application refused January 2018 |
| Mahmood family | December 2016 | Daily Mail and General Trust settled for £150,000 plus costs over two MailOnline articles she wrote. The articles were removed |
| Jackie Teale | November 2017 | Mail Online apologised and paid substantial damages. No figure published |
| Finsbury Park Mosque | October 2020 | She apologised after the mosque brought a claim |
| Daily Mirror | May 2018 | She won an IPSO complaint; the paper corrected its story |
Court and regulatory outcomes as recorded in the public account of her career. Note that the Mahmood and Teale settlements were paid by the publisher, not by her personally.
That last point is worth being precise about. Two of the largest sums here were paid by a newspaper group, not by her. The Monroe judgment is the one that fell on her directly, and £131,000 in damages and costs is the figure that belongs in any account of her finances.
Three Income Streams Ending At Once
The financial picture is not really about one court case. It is about what happened to the earnings at the same time.
| Role | Period | How it ended |
|---|---|---|
| The Apprentice | 2007, series 3 | Withdrew before the final |
| The Sun, weekly column | Late October 2013 to autumn 2015 | Left for Mail Online |
| Mail Online | Autumn 2015 to October 2017 | Final column 5 October 2017; contract not renewed that November |
| LBC, Sunday show | April 2016 to May 2017 | Departure announced 26 May 2017, effective immediately |
| Rebel Media | January 2018 to around October 2018 | Reportedly dropped — this rests on a weaker source |
| Permanently suspended June 2020 | Reinstated 5 November 2023 |
Dates as recorded in the public account of her career. Where a source is weaker, it is marked.
Within about five months she lost a national radio slot and a national newspaper column. For a commentator those are not two jobs; they are the platform that makes everything else saleable. The accounts to June 2018 are what that looks like on a balance sheet. Our profile of Scott Mills shows the same economics from the other direction.
Why No Current Figure Can Exist
Put the pieces together and the answer is structural rather than evasive.
- The company is dissolved. Since 15 February 2022 there has been nothing to file and nothing to read.
- The last accounts are from 30 June 2020, now more than six years old.
- Small-company accounts never disclosed turnover, profit, salary or dividends in the first place.
- Income from online platforms and subscriptions is private, and no platform publishes per-creator earnings.
- An individual voluntary arrangement is a private agreement between a person and their creditors. Its terms are not published.
So anyone publishing a 2026 net worth for Katie Hopkins is working from a dissolved company, six-year-old accounts that never showed income, and a set of private arrangements. We apply the same standard to George Galloway, Chris Rokos and Lisa Eldridge: read what is filed, and say so when nothing is.
Where the Published Figures Come From
In the interest of showing our working, these are the sources behind the figures you will see quoted for her: an aggregator net worth entry, an AI-written finance blog, a YouTube earnings estimator and a third-party mirror of Companies House data.
None of the first three shows a calculation, cites a filing or mentions that the company was dissolved. The fourth is a mirror of the register — useful, but the register itself is free and authoritative, and we have linked it directly above. We have left all of these in place so you can check them yourself rather than take our word for it.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Katie Hopkins’ net worth in 2026?
No verified figure exists. Her company, Katie Hopkins Limited, was dissolved on 15 February 2022, so there are no current accounts to read. Its last filed accounts, to 30 June 2020, showed shareholders’ funds of £111,498.
Did Katie Hopkins have a company?
Yes. Katie Hopkins Limited (06289329), incorporated 21 June 2007 and registered in Exeter. She was a director from the start and held 75% or more of the shares. It was dissolved on 15 February 2022.
What did her company accounts actually show?
Shareholders’ funds peaked at £173,714 at 30 June 2017, then fell to £22,590 a year later — a drop of about 87%. They recovered to £111,498 by 30 June 2020, the last accounts filed.
What happened in the Jack Monroe case?

Was Katie Hopkins declared bankrupt?
She entered an individual voluntary arrangement, an insolvency agreement used to avoid bankruptcy, in 2018. Sources differ on the exact month, so no single date is given here.
Did she sell her house?
She sold her Exeter home in March 2018 for £930,000. Reporting links a family home sale to the legal costs, though it does not explicitly confirm the two were the same property.
Why did her income drop?
Three media roles ended within months of each other: LBC announced her departure on 26 May 2017 effective immediately, her final Mail Online column ran on 5 October 2017 and her contract was not renewed that November. She had left The Sun for Mail Online in autumn 2015.
Were there other legal costs?
Yes, though not all fell on her personally. In December 2016 Daily Mail and General Trust settled a libel claim by the Mahmood family for £150,000 plus costs over two MailOnline articles she wrote. In November 2017 Mail Online apologised and paid substantial damages to Jackie Teale.
Was she banned from Twitter?
She was suspended for a week in January 2020 and permanently suspended in June 2020 for violations of the platform’s hateful conduct policy. The account was reinstated on 5 November 2023.
How does she earn money now?
Not publicly disclosed. With the company dissolved there are no filings, and income from online platforms, subscriptions and appearances is private.
Conclusion
The documented financial record is this. A company incorporated in 2007 that grew to £173,714 in shareholders’ funds by June 2017. A libel judgment that March costing £131,000 in damages and costs. A radio contract ended in May and a newspaper column ended in October. Funds down to £22,590 by the following June, a house sold for £930,000, and an insolvency agreement in 2018.
Then a partial recovery to £111,498 by June 2020 — and on 15 February 2022 the company was dissolved. Everything after that is private. That is not an evasion; it is the end of the public record, and it is where an honest page has to stop.
