She has the hump at having to pay her 40 per cent tax to help keep others. Lady V may be living a glamorous life but when she was asked what issue would force her to take to the streets in protest she replied: "Tax." She added: "What annoys me is when these families have got like 12 children and we’re paying for these kids."

Asked if it was because they were claiming benefits, she said: "Yeah - and because they work out that they make more money being on the dole than having a job, they just laze around." She then has the audacity to state that she hates dysfunctional families, only seemingly forgetting that she comes from one. Three years ago, her debt-ridden half-brother John Jermyn, the 7th Marquess of Bristol, sold off the rights of the family to live at Ickworth House in Suffolk, the family seat since 1795, in a deal with the National Trust.

Lady V’s father Victor, the 6th Marquess of Bristol, was a crook who was sent to prison for three years in the 1930s for his part in a bungled jewellery heist at a Mayfair hotel. He died in 1985. Her half-brother John was a heroin addict, jailed twice for drug offences and deported from Australia before he died two years ago, aged 45.
