Katie Hopkins named the scariest female celebrity in-law

TV personality Katie Hopkins has been named the scariest female celebrity in-law.

The former 'Apprentice' contestant beat off competition from the likes of 'X Factor' judge Sharon Osbourne and pop star Madonna to take the title following a new poll from independent jewellery comparison website www.comparejewellery.com.

Former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson topped the male poll of the scariest hypothetical male in-law, finishing ahead of British Prime Minister David Cameron and music mogul Simon Cowell.

Ali O’Neill, Head of Product & Jewellery Crusader at comparejewellery.com, said: "It seems that those prone to a public spat, like Katie Hopkins and Sir Alex, are definitely feared amongst the general public; and no one would want to dare ask for their offspring’s hand in marriage in a hypothetical scenario."
