Kelly Hoppen’s mum says good riddance – to Knightsbri­dge

-

FORMER Dragons’ Den star Kelly Hoppen did not pull her punches on the BBC show for budding entreprene­urs — and it seems her mother, Stephanie, is equally outspoken.

She has just sold her art gallery in Walton Street, Knightsbri­dge, because she hates its ‘boring’ shops.

‘I’ve finally had enough,’ she tells me. ‘It’s gone terribly downhill. It was a marvellous street for years and everybody wanted to go there.

‘Now, they’re trying to turn it into a high-rent thing with the same shops that you have everywhere, which is so boring. I’ve been there since 1981, for a very long time. I’m delighted to say goodbye to it.’
