Danny v Katie – who are you backing? (Picture: Getty/Rex)

If there’s one celebrity grudge match we’d pay to see, this is it.

Danny Dyer is now the latest star to get in a Twitter row with Katie Hopkins – and we know who we’re backing.

Hopkins provoked Dyer’s ire after she criticised the EastEnders star’s engagement, stating that ‘no woman should ever propose to a man’.

The future bride and groom announcing their happy news in Hello! magazine this morning, revealing that Joanne Mas proposed to her childhood sweetheart on Valentine’s Day.


Of course, it was always going to be a bit much to expect Katie to be happy for them.



She deftly managed to insult both Jo AND Danny, describing the groom-to-be as a man with a ‘naff bum-fluff beard and dodgy squint’.

No woman should ever propose to a man. Certainly not one with a naff bum-fluff beard and dodgy squint. pic.twitter.com/OHWyTDRO1A — Katie Hopkins (@KTHopkins) March 2, 2015

Danny Dyer was unimpressed.

@KTHopkins No I agree…especially when you look like ya face should be on the side of a gothic building..have a nice day ya daft sexist ya. — Danny Dyer (@MrDDyer) March 2, 2015

But Dyer wasn’t going to take it lying down.

@KTHopkins Really…….and no man wants his wife to have the look of Wilfred Bramble either…strange old world innit. — Danny Dyer (@MrDDyer) March 2, 2015

We’re assuming he means Wilfrid Brambell, aka Albert Steptoe in Steptoe And Son.

The resemblance is uncanny.

He went on to say he ‘couldn’t be bollocked’ to think of a compliment. Classic Dyer.

@KTHopkins I'd pay you a compliment coz I know it upsets ya…..diddums…..but I'll be bollocked if I can think of one. — Danny Dyer (@MrDDyer) March 2, 2015
