These days, she features regularly on television panel shows such as QI, Mock the Week, 8 Out of 10 Cats and Have I Got News for You.

The star recently shocked her followers when she shared pictures appearing to show the results of a bum lift ‘procedure’ – later revealing that it wasn’t real after all.

What will happen in tonight's episode?

Tonight's episode will see Katherine meet a man who specialises in gold-plating items for celebrities.

Laban Roomes' business is estimated to be worth £10 million.

Among Laban’s most unusual requests from his super-rich clients is a gold SEX TOY, while his company also charged £15,000 to plate the Sultan of Brunei’s toilet.

Also on tonight's show are a motivational speaker and a man who made his money in caravan parks.

Who has appeared on How'd You Get So Rich?

Katherine has met Britain's richest plumber Charlie Mullins during the series.

Charlie set up Pimlico Plumbers almost 40 years ago and despite being now worth a reported £70million, he began life in a council flat in Camden, leaving school with no qualifications to follow his dream of becoming a plumber.

Katherine also met Monaco party yacht twins Nicholas Frankl and Annabel, plus ten year old Isabella Barrett who became a millionaire aged six.

Previously, Poundland founders Steven and Tracy Smith appeared on the show.

At the time they sold the chain they were employing 5,500 people and a turnover of £200million and an annual profit of £4.3million.

The first thing Steven did when he sold the business was give half of the money to his parents.

Also appearing on the show is supercar-loving playboy Danny Lambo.

The cash-flashing hotelier, who has a reported £25million in the bank, says he is part of a new generation of self-made millionaires ditching modesty in favour of flaunting their riches.

She's also spen time with former Big Brother star Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace.

Aisleyne is now a property mogul, and Katherine goes on a property hunt with her and chats about her life.
