Katie Price told Katie Hopkins she pays her taxes and doesn't earn a set amount each year, so why shouldn't she get government help...

Katie Price and Katie Hopkins locked in the same house, while tormented by Big Brother seems like a recipe for rows. But the pair have actually been getting along quite well… until now.

The pair clashed during a discussions about the care for Katie Price’s disabled son, Harvey. Katie was complaining about the expense of getting cars from her house in Sussex to central London.

Well, you might be able to save a few bob, if, y’know, you drove yourself Katie? Just an idea.

Anyway, she went on to explain that her son Harvey - who has a few disabilities such as blindness, autism, ADHD and Prader-Willi syndrome - has a government-funded car:

“He [Harvey] has a driver who takes him to school each day. He travels with a special nurse who looks after him and the driver is mindful of the situation - it's tax-payer funded, which is good.”

Katie then questioned, erm, Katie (Jordan), about why she couldn’t pay for the transport with her own fortune - which is estimated to be £40 million.

“Do you know how f***ing expensive that would be… it would be up to a grand a day.

“Besides, I pay my taxes, so if the government can help, then great.”

But Hopkins still wasn’t convinced, she argued: “With the amount you earn I find that tricky, when you could afford it yourself.

“Look, don't get me wrong, but I believe that if you can afford something then you shouldn't allow the government to pick up the tab.”

Katie Price added: “But I don't earn a set amount each year, it changes all the time, so I never know how much I'm going to get.

Katie P said she'd rather have this conversation with a politician

“If the government offer to help, I'll take it.”

The pair then walked away from each other and Katie Price later revealed the argument didn’t sit right with her.

“That was about my kids so it was a little bit close” she also argued that she didn’t feel she had to have this argument with Katie, adding Hopkins is “not a politician” and that she would rather “have this conversation with a politician”.

Who do you think is right? Katie Hopkins or Katie Price?

Katie Price vs Katie Hopkins

Straight-talking Hopkins took to Twitter in August 2014 to publicly attack the Pricey’s, uh, unusual choice in daughter’s name. "BUNNY? Makes sense, given your dad was going at it like a rabbit with all of mum's mates," she tweeted. Burn! The former Apprentice runner-up also appeared on Celebrity Juice where she continued to slate Katie’s choice of baby name saying, “I'm not so keen on Katie Price's baby name either. I don't think Bunny is a great name for a baby, do you?” Miss Price didn’t hold back when she blasted Katie Hopkins for being ‘ignorant’ when she claimed "behind every fat child is a fat parent", referring to her son Harvey. Will the CBB house become a battleground between the two Katies?

For a woman best known for her multiple breast enlargements, the Pricey displayed a tiny hint of hypocrisy when she infamously accused Alicia of being addicted to cosmetic surgery in June 2012. She told one interviewer: "Alicia Douvall? To me that is having a problem with surgery, I don't understand it. She doesn't have anyone around her to say, 'Look what are you doing'." Um, Katie? HAVE YOU SEEN YOUR OWN BODY IN THE MIRROR RECENTLY???

These two engaged in a Twitter war in 2013, when Katie Price revealed she'd had a fling with Kelly's ex-fella Danny Cipriani. Labelling Katie "desperate", Kelly tweeted: “@MissKatiePrice Your doing a Kiss&Tell on Danny?? Haha that’s hilarious you dated for 5mins and was one of many at the time. Desperate." Ouchies.

Although they may be friends now (well, ish) after Katie offered her support to Big Brother star Chantelle following her break-up with Katie’s ex Alex Reid in 2011, they weren't always pals. Katie and Chantelle had many clashes over Alex - and at one point, Katie even claimed that Chantelle was "ruining her life".

When the late Peaches Geldof posted a picture of her dog licking her baby son's face, Katie took to Twitter to share her thoughts about Peaches' parenting skills, saying she didn’t think it was safe to have an animal that close to a child. Peaches hit back saying: "Funny that Katie Price aka 'Jordan' lol thinks that I shouldn't allow my gentle, sweet golden retriever dog near his best friend, my son. Could say the same thing to her about letting some of the multitude of 'boyfriends' she has near her kids." Erm, maybe Katie should have kept her mouth shut on this one?

Katie had a dig at the ex-Spice Girl when she labelled her 'Misery Spice' at the band's reunion in 2012, where Posh was pictured doing the her trademark ‘duck face’ while her former band mates were seen grinning. Katie said: "Perhaps her bunions were killing her again, or maybe her tight dress meant she had problems holding in her wind - but it felt more like a case of her thinking, 'I'm in fashion now dah-lings. All this is just SO beneath me.'" We won’t be expecting a duo from these two again any time soon, then...

Kim Kardashian7 of 8

Kim Kardashian

The ex-glamour model - who got her break as a Page 3 girl - managed to show a shimmer more hypocrisy when she slammed Kim's totally naked Paper magazine shoot as "unattractive". Umm.

Back in 2009 when Katie returned to the I'm A Celebrity jungle, campmate Kim got her knickers in a twist when Katie asked what the camp thought of her. Kim told Jordan: "You live and die for publicity, and you do it well." Well Katie, you did ask...
