Famed TV host Piers Morgan quit “Good Morning Britain” on Tuesday‚ just hours after his co-star confronted him over relentless criticism of Meghan Markle.
“Following discussions with ITV, Piers Morgan has decided now is the time to leave Good Morning Britain,” the network said in a statement.
“ITV has accepted this decision and has nothing further to add.”
Morgan, 55, stormed off the set Tuesday after his co-star Alex Beresford called him out for continuing to “trash” Markle following her bombshell Oprah Winfrey interview with husband Prince Harry.
“I understand that you don’t like Meghan Markle. You’ve made it so clear a number of times on this program, and I understand that you had a personal relationship with Meghan Markle and she cut you off,” said Beresford, before questioning whether Morgan had any personal beef with the Duchess of Sussex.
“Has she said anything about you after she cut you off? She’s entitled to cut you off if she wants to. And yet you continue to trash her.”
Morgan later explained that he was “annoyed” so he “went for a little cool-down, and came back to finish the discussion.”
“I just prefer not to sit there listening to colleagues call me diabolical,” he wrote on Twitter.
Since the Oprah interview, Morgan has repeatedly criticized Markle, for agreeing to the sit-down—calling the move “an absolutely disgraceful betrayal of The Queen and the royal family.”
“I expect all this vile destructive self-serving nonsense from Meghan Markle — but for Harry to let her take down his family and the Monarchy like this is shameful,” he wrote.
Then on Monday’s episode of “Good Morning Britain,” Morgan slammed the interview as a “two-hour trash-a-thon” of the royals.
“They trash everybody. They basically make out the entire royal family a bunch of white supremacists,”

A liberal with a head on his shoulders. It had to be a freak of nature.
It seems to me that Piers has been going through a long-term, slow-motion mugging which turns liberals into conservatives.
I’ll wait and see. He seems to have found his way away from the Dark Side.
The Duke and Doochess Of Prunes. TA da dah.
Not the real, native born Brits.
The UK media is not the same as the UK public.
Morgan was for Trump before he was against him. In my opinion, he follows every popular trend or attitude in Britain and jumps in or on with his two cents worth of support in order to be popular. There’s nothing there under the surface (well, ego maybe).
I’ve never had any use for any royalty. Even though Britain’s royalty doesn’t rule, they are just stupid in sucking up headlines. They are useless, except for those who still live in a fairy tale land for a King, Queen, Prince, Princess. Pfft.
“Fauci is a complete pussy and throws like a 5 year old girl.”
He’s 80 years old.
“He’s 80 years old.”
...so? He’s still a pussy.
What is not to like: an elite welfare cretin and his ho.
That's the reason. And, for going after Meghan and questioning her claims.
Just rolls off the tongue.
There are some of us, even those of us not Royal, who know better than than to hang out dirty laundry. It just isn’t done. This little girl, what’s her name...Megayn...has sullied the time-honored tradition of dignity. She has become common. Very common.
Not with snotnosed Morgan.
They already have access to them.
Megan is a a BPD/NPD; indications are all there. That interview was a an effin joke; selling mental illness of Megan as aok.
He is no longer friendly with or towards Trump. After Piers’ scorching criticism of Trump, Trump ghosted him.
Oh, but he was criticized on air, unscripted, by a person of color, who is the weatherman for the show on which Piers was the anchor. That weatherman called Piers "diabolical" for his opinion. I guess that's BritSpeak for "Hitler."
Yes, he quit. But ,unless he would’ve done the typical, Orwellian “apology”( that White shave HAD to do, thru the last 30-40 years ), he would’ve been fired anyway. And for WHAT? Telling The Truth.
That’s SOME White Privilege We have , isn’t it????!!!!
WHAT “White” Privilege????!!!!
WHAT “Racism” against blacks????!!!!
