Narinder Kaur has openly admitted that she entered the Big Brother house because she had a burning desire to be famous.
But since reaching her desired 'celebrity status' with her appearance on the second series of the reality TV show in 2001, Ms Kaur has often sparked controversy with her unfiltered rants.
On Remembrance Sunday, she provoked an angry response from royal fans after saying Kate Middleton has 'aged so much' as the Princess of Wales returned to royal duties following her battle with cancer.
Now an outspoken TV panellist on shows including Good Morning Britain, GB News and Loose Women, this was not the first time Ms Kaur has ignited fury from viewers.
The 51-year-old, who was the first ever British Indian contestant on Big Brother, once described the late Queen Elizabeth as 'the Queen of Crime', claimed the St George's Cross is associated with 'bigotry, fascism and racism' and called Kate 'stiff, dull and unrelatable'.
On Sunday, her stance on the Royal Family was made obvious once again as she attacked Kate over her appearance at the Remembrance Sunday commemorations at the Cenotaph.
Sharing a photo of the Princess of Wales, Ms Kaur wrote on X: 'Genuine question - why has Kate aged so much? Isn't she only 42? Is she a smoker? It's the only explanation.'

Ms Kaur, a media commentator, later shared a video in which she admitted the tweet was 'stupid'
Ms Kaur's tweet provoked a storm of outrage, with other X users calling the comment 'dreadful' and 'disgusting'.
At first she doubled down, replying to a tweet noting that Kate had been through cancer treatment by saying: 'My brother had cancer… he didn't age like that.'

The TV personality has since shared a video in which she admitted the tweet was 'stupid' before hitting out at trolls who had sent her 'sexual, racist [and] violent abuse'.
She said: 'I thought I'd do a quick video instead of tweet after tweet, because it becomes pretty ridiculous - as if it wasn't ridiculous enough already.
'I put out a stupid tweet. That wasn't my intention, my intention was not to be malicious or nasty or anything.
'I'm not like that, situs terbaik anybody who knows me. It was stupid to ask about the ageing. I've admitted that, I've put my hands up and apologised if it caused offence.
'The only people who were offended though, because many people on Twitter and social media have asked exactly what I've asked but did not receive the sexual, racial, violent abuse that I did from accounts with EDL flags, Union Jacks, disgusting abuse.'
Ms Kaur said her brother 'went through brutal treatment of chemo' when he was suffering from cancer before his death and claimed she wouldn't have made remarks about Kate's appearance with regard to her cancer diagnosis.

As the nation marked the one-year anniversary of Queen Elizabeth's death last year, Ms Kaur called her the 'Queen of Crime'
In the same video, Ms Kaur went on to outrageously accuse Kate of having 'a lot of privilege' for not having to work while she received treatment for cancer.
And, claiming that a lot of the comments she had received in response to her original tweet were about Meghan Markle, she added: 'What's Meghan got to do with it?'

GMB panellist Narinder Kaur faces furious backlash for saying Kate Middleton has 'aged so much'
Ms Kaur has previously been very supportive of Meghan, even claiming that her and Prince Harry were pushed out by the Royal Family who were 'jealous'.
In a heated GB News debate with Nigel Farage about Harry's decision to leave the UK for America, she said last January: 'Shall I tell you while he walked away? Because it took marrying a biracial woman to realise how racist the institution he is?'
She added: 'Meghan and Harry were so popular, and I think it was jealousy.
'And King Charles the cruel, why hasn't he spoken to his son? Why hasn't he protected his son? Well, actually why didn't they come out?'
Farage replied: 'More relevantly? Why hasn't he taken his son's title away? Harry and Meghan's popularity in this country has gone from stratospherically high to very, very low.'
But Ms Kaur continued to criticise the monarchy for the way in which they dealt with 'racism' towards Meghan, responding: 'This institution, the monarchy, needs to speak out against racism, and they didn't.'
The TV commentator also attacked the royals when the nation came together to mark the one-year anniversary of Queen Elizabeth's death last year.
Ms Kaur claimed Nike's St George's cross makeover made her feel 'included' because the flag 'is associated with bigotry, fascism and racism'
But she backed Lily Allen when the singer said that having children 'ruined her career'
Sparking controversy again, she wrote: ‘The death of the Queen of Crime, Elizabeth II, at the age of 96, after almost seven decades of rule, has sparked reactions at various levels. However, the most significant response should be considered the eruption of anger and resentment caused by the lasting damage of British Rule.
‘The people from former and current British colonial countries regard Elizabeth II as the embodiment of colonialism and the harm inflicted by England upon their nations.

Big Brother star Narinder Kaur says Nike's St George's cross makeover makes her feel 'included' - as she condemns flag for association with 'racism'
‘They have not hesitated to express this sentiment following the news of her death.
‘Although Elizabeth II reigned during the post-colonial era of England, she still maintained a connection with the colonial past rooted in racism and violence against Asian and African colonies.
‘In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for the monarchy to confront.'
In another tweet, she wrote: ‘What good did she do for the poor of this country?! She's remembered for Paddington bear.'
More recently, in March this year, Ms Kaur also waded into the row over Nike's controversial decision to alter the St George's cross on the back of the England kit with rainbow colours.
While former England players slammed the decision, Ms Kaur claimed Nike's St George's cross makeover made her feel 'included' because the flag 'is associated with bigotry, fascism and racism'.
She told the Jeremy Vine Show at the time: 'I saw that flag and I felt included. I felt Nike's reason was to unite.
'Sadly the St George's flag has been hijacked, it is tarnished. And as far back as I can remember - 60s, 70s, 80s, it's been hijacked by far-right groups.
'All I see when I see the St George's flag is people draped in it doing the Nazi salute, being racist and hating Muslims. So there's nothing to be proud about when those kind of people are brandishing that flag and it's actually quite scary.
'I don't proud of this flag, I feel scared of the flag. That flag doesn't represent tolerance, it represents racism.'
Ms Kaur suggested 'tolerance' was a key national characteristic and claimed there was a need to 'reclaim' the St George's Cross.
'What we need is for the majority who are apparently proud of this flag to reclaim what Britain [sic] is about,' she said.
'Because at the moment, it's [associated] with bigotry, fascism and racism. And the majority aren't displaying it proudly because even they feel slightly ashamed by it.'
In May, Ms Kaur got into a spat with Laurence Fox, which ended in the actor posting an 'upskirting' photo of her.
Fox shared the image without her consent amid a spat about their political views. At the time, she thanked people for their support and said it was a 'police matter'.

Ms Kaur has also gone to war with JK Rowling over her gender-critical views
Ms Kaur, who came ninth on Big Brother in 2001, is extremely opinionated and often ends up in heated debates.
She backed Lily Allen when the singer said that having children 'ruined her career'.
Ms Kaur said: 'I want to give Lily Allen a pat on the back because she was completely honest. I think she triggered a lot of mums out there who believe this myth that you can have it all - you can't.'
The TV personality has also hit out at celebrities in the past, including JK Rowling over her gender-critical views.
Referring to a sarcastic Mother's Day tweet which said 'Happy Birthing Parent Day, she said: 'Of all the ways Rowling could have used her star status to make a difference in the world, she chose to pick on a miniscule per cent of a already very demonised group of people. So sad.'
Just last month, Ms Kaur made headlines again as she claimed that she was 'kicked, punched and verbally abused' by a passenger on a recent flight to India.
She said she was 'flung forward' by a woman as she slept after rowing over a reclined seat on the Air India flight.

Sharing the allegations on X, Ms Kaur wrote: 'Air rage is real and I had a terrible experience with a woman literally punching and kicking my seat forward as it was reclined (I was sleeping) whilst she was trying to eat behind me.
'She literally flung me forward and I didn't have my belt on. She proceeded to verbally abuse me. FYI she wasn't even drunk.
'Why is there a lack of clarity on who has the jurisdiction to penalise the offending passenger: the airline's country of operation, the country of departure or destination, or the passenger's country of citizenship?'
In another post, Narinder continued: 'I was sleeping..I didn't know food was being served at 4am..and she could have ASKED politely- kicking and punching my seat and verbally abusing me is not acceptable.'
'I didn't pay £1k to sit upright the entire flight..the man in front of me was fully reclined and I had PLENTY space..'
Ms Kaur starred on Big Brother in 2001 and was evicted on Day 29, with Brian Dowling going on to win the series.
Explaining her decision to go on the series, she previously admitted on her website: 'I knew ...I just KNEW, I felt it - I had to become famous. I was sat in a GP surgery and handing out leaflets and knew I had to make this come true and that it was now or never. That I had to make my dreams come true. But how? That's where BB [Big Brother] came in ...I wasn't a huge fan of the first series but realized it was a way in.'
Since her stint in the house, she has gone onto present a show on London's Lyca Radio, and also published a tell-all book about her time in the house titled: Big Brother - The Inside Story in 2007.

When Zoe Ball returned to BBC Radio 2 after an unexplained six-week absence this summer, she tried to keep the tone breezy. 'Morning gorgeous people!' she greeted listeners. 'It's me Zoe, the happy wanderer. I've wandered back.'
But insiders say her upbeat, business-as-usual attitude masked the unhappiness that had kept her off air for so long, and yesterday - just two months after her comeback in late September - Zoe announced she was leaving the show for good.
Her final Breakfast Show will be on December 20, with her good friend Scott Mills then taking over the prestigious slot. In a statement, the 53-year-old said: 'After six incredible years on the Radio 2 Breakfast Show, it's time for me to step away from the very early mornings and focus on family. It's been a privilege.'
She added that she was grateful to her bosses for their support and concluded: 'I'm excited to embrace my next chapter, including being a mum in the mornings. I can't wait to tune in on the school run.'
When Zoe started in the role in January 2019, her son Woody was 18 and daughter Nelly had just turned nine. As a result, she has missed seeing them both at breakfast for a significant chunk of their young lives.
Nelly is now 14, and some critics have scoffed at the idea of Zoe doing the school run with her. But a BBC source close to the presenter says: 'She simply wants to live differently, which means having more of a family life.'
And as any mother of a teenager can confirm, a young adult may need you just as much as a younger child, albeit in different ways.

The catalyst for the change, according to insiders, was the death of Zoe's mother Julia, who passed away in April after a brutally fast 12-week battle with pancreatic cancer. Their relationship had not always been easy, but the pair had become very close in recent years.
Thrice-married Julia, a glamorous model who had been the Kodak poster girl in the 1970s, left Zoe's father, Johnny Ball, then a well-known TV presenter, when Zoe was just two. When she was six, Johnny married a dancer, Di, and the couple brought her up, along with her two half-brothers, Nick and Dan.
Julia also remarried and had a son, Jamie, then married again and gained two stepdaughters, Ellie and Hannah. Zoe saw her mum regularly until she was seven, but then didn't see her again until she was 18.
'My mum said that from the minute she was pregnant, I was always Daddy's girl and when they split up everybody thought it would be best for me to stay with my dad,' Zoe said later.
'I saw my mum until I was about seven, but then she stayed away because she thought it would give me more stability. It was never a problem for me because I always knew she was there.'
When she was 18 and Julia 40, mother and daughter were reconciled - with Zoe saying it was as if they had never been estranged.
'Her husband, Rick, rang me up and said it would be a really nice surprise for her if I got in touch. So I did and it was quite an emotional day,' she said.
Clearly they made up for lost time. In a poignant tribute posted to Instagram after Julia's death, Zoe wrote: 'Sleep tight dear Mama. Thank you for teaching us how to love unconditionally, to always show courage and empathy. And how, even in the darkest of days, laughter is the greatest of gifts.'

Her heartbreak was clear. Zoe kept going until August with the support of friends, including her former husband Norman Cook, aka the musician Fatboy Slim, but sources say she reached a point when she needed to take a break.
Her bosses at the BBC told her to take as long as she needed. There were no announcements that she was off or that she was coming back - Zoe wanted privacy, and the BBC respected that.
Son Woody, now 23 and a successful DJ like his father, hinted in September that his mother had been going through 'tough times'. 'I have stepped up and spent a lot more time with her recently as she has always been there when I've had tough times,' he said.
Sources indicate that deferred and complex grief following her mother's death - on top of tragedies including the death by suicide of her boyfriend Billy Yates in 2017 and a split from her partner Michael Reed last year - meant that she had 'reached the end of her tether'.
Hence Zoe - famous for those 'ladette' years of hedonism in the 1990s when she was on Radio 1 - is leaving her exhausting schedule to spend more time with family.
A source said: 'In the end, this was completely her decision. She came to them [the BBC] in September after she had had a break to think about her life and said: 'I'm done.' The BBC... wanted a bit of time to put everything in place, which they were able to do. They looked at who might do it... I think they only seriously considered Vernon Kay and Scott Mills.'
It says everything about Zoe's loyalty and grace that she and the BBC were able to manage her exit so harmoniously.
Within the broadcaster, many are contrasting her smooth farewell with the bumpier exit of Gary Lineker from BBC1's Match Of The Day. He is leaving after intense speculation over his contract negotiations and without an appointed successor.

After a year of scandals - not least that surrounding disgraced former news anchor Huw Edwards - the last thing the BBC needs is another row over the handling of its highest paid stars.
A source adds: 'The BBC have had to be really careful because anything to do with mental health needs to be handled sensitively. Also, Zoe is a woman of a certain age and they would never be seen to be encouraging her to leave.'
The truth is, Zoe Ball's life was changing even before her mother fell ill. In February, she put her country house in East Sussex on the market after finding it was far too big for her, having split from boyfriend Reed, a former model.
Friends say that was a 'wringing' break-up as the couple had been together since 2018 - but some thought she was better off without him. In 2020, it emerged he was claiming benefits and had been ordered to pay almost £20,000 in child-maintenance arrears to the mother of his daughter.
That wasn't a good look for Zoe, who is the second-highest paid presenter on the BBC's books. Indeed only Lineker, paid £1.3million by the Corporation, earned more. Figures for 2023/4 released in the BBC's annual report say that she received a whopping salary of £950,000.
In early spring, Zoe quietly moved to a townhouse in Brighton. Perhaps that was the first step towards building a new, more family-focused life closer to her ex-husband Norman, 61, a long-term Brighton resident with whom she shares custody of Nelly.

My drama-filled call with Rebekah Vardy and how I know she and Coleen will NEVER forgive each other
Indeed, they seem never to have got on better. She spoke on the radio yesterday about their 1999 wedding at the private members' club Babington House in Somerset. 'That was a good do,' Zoe said fondly. It is her 54th birthday on Saturday - November 23 - and she will spend it watching Fatboy Slim play in north London.
Over the summer, she and Norman watched Woody play at Glastonbury and attended a number of his other gigs, plus various engagements and pub lunches.
Might they ever get back together? They split in 2016 and were divorced in 2020, but both are single at present. It's probably nothing more than wishful thinking on the part of their large group of mutual friends, but there are whispers of a new closeness.
I'm told that Norman is 'very much there for her' - though, beyond that, nobody seems to know. Their love story was an integral part of 'Cool Britannia' - Zoe once joked the pair partied so hard she couldn't remember the 1990s. Both are now sober.
Rising to prominence on the BBC children's TV show Live And Kicking, Zoe went on to have stints on The Big Breakfast and Top Of The Pops, and, in 1997, took the helm of the Radio 1 Breakfast Show. She met Norman the following year in Ibiza.
In 2003, they separated briefly after Norman discovered Zoe had been unfaithful with his friend, the DJ Dan Peppe. Norman told reporters: 'I still love her. If you love someone, you'll forgive them.'
Zoe's father Johnny added: 'When she left for that silly DJ, I know exactly why that was. Woody was exactly the same age as Zoe was when her mother left. She was thinking, "I'm like my mother, I'm going to let us all down". It was a cry for help.'
In 2017, Zoe found love again with cameraman Billy Yates, who had been a friend for years. Tragically, just a few months later Billy was found dead at his London flat. It was determined he had died by suicide.

Devastated, Zoe spoke about the need to help people suffering from depression when she was a guest on Radio 4's Desert Island Discs. She also completed a
five-day bike ride for Sports Relief in 2018, raising £500,000 for relevant charities.
That year she was announced as the new presenter of Radio 2's Breakfast Show. She said she was terrified to follow in previous host Chris Evan's footsteps, but had been encouraged by Woody. 'He said 'Mum, come on... it's like the coolest thing you can do. Be the first girl on Radio 2 Breakfast.'
Yesterday Zoe promised she would have another show on Radio 2, to be announced next year. Sources say she is also keen to do more TV work, perhaps alongside Woody - they are a popular pairing on Celebrity Gogglebox.
After so many tragedies, who could blame Zoe for wanting to hold her family just a little bit tighter?
