Piers Morgan brands Clarkson fans who want Gary Lineker sacked 'absurd' after Meghan fury

TV presenters Piers Morgan, 57, and Susanna Reid, 52, reconnected as they went on a breakfast date to a cafe following their reported rift after Piers left GMB. Piers posted a photo to Instagram of the breakfast date as he wore a black shirt with the collar unbuttoned and said it was "lovely" to see Susanna, who looked stunning in a bright pink dress.

Piers Morgan has praised a black cabbie who drove across London to return his lost phone at 2am. Former ITV Good Morning Britain star Piers has spoken out after losing his mobile. "Many thanks to @Gett_UK for tracking down the taxi containing my phone last night, and to Yasin the driver who brought it back from the other side of London at 2am," he wrote.

Good Morning Britain has finally found its replacement for Piers Morgan two years after he quit the show following a row about his comments about Meghan Markle. Since his abrupt exit, Susanna Reid has been joined by a variety of co-stars including Richard Madeley, Adil Ray and Ed Balls.

Susanna Reid paid tribute to her former co-star Piers Morgan for making her "more argumentative and difficult" as she celebrated 20 years on breakfast TV.

Susanna Reid thanked Piers Morgan for making her “more difficult” during their time presenting Good Morning Britain together. Susanna, who recently branded Hugh Grant “grumpy” as she recalled a previous interview, is celebrating 20 years on breakfast TV this week and is reflecting on some of the highs of her career. Sitting alongside co-presenter Ed Balls on the show on Wednesday morning, Susanna thanked Piers and her former BBC Breakfast colleague, the late Bill Turnbull, who she worked with from 2001 to 2014.

ITV show and subsequently quit. Piers Morgan is now a TalkTV star with his Uncensored show, having quit GMB two years ago. The 56-year-old stormed off in March of that year, during a row with Alex Beresford over Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Oprah Winfrey interview.

Piers Morgan resigned from Good Morning Britain after refusing to apologise for not believing Meghan Markle's account of life in the Royal Family. However, the 57-year-old broadcaster has now questioned why he didn't receive the same "solidarity" that Gary Lineker recently did for his own situation. One source claimed that Piers' comment was a reference to his former GMB colleague Susanna Reid, who returned to the airwaves immediately after the episode, without making a stand for Piers.

Piers Morgan still feels “let down” by his former Good Morning Britain co-hosts after he controversially walked out on the ITV daytime show, a source has told us. Last week, after Gary Lineker’s Match Of The Day co-stars rallied in support when he was controversially taken off air, TalkTV host Piers, 57, tweeted, “Would have been nice to see the same solidarity.” His jibe came after a fan asked, “Piers, were you disappointed that none of your colleagues didn’t present the day after you left GMB?” The tweet was a reaction to Gary’s many colleagues, including Ian Wright and Alan Shearer, refusing to appear on the BBC sports show after the pundit was suspended for slamming the government’s new asylum policy. And now a source has claimed Piers’ pointed tweet was mainly aimed at his former co-host Susanna Reid, who soldiered on presenting GMB after Piers quit following a row over his negative comments about the Duchess of Sussex.

The Match of the Day presenter voiced his opinion and compared the bill to Nazi history, leaving many online users debating. Piers opened a recent instalment of his show issuing a rant about the broadcasters being the "victims" of prosecution.

Gary Lineker agreed it was "good to be back" on the BBC to present Manchester City's FA Cup tie against Burnley on Match of the Day Live after stepping back from presenting last weekend in a controversial row over broadcaster's impartiality rules. The former England and Leicester City footballer came under fire for comparing the language used by the government in their asylum plans to 'that used by Germany in the 30s' in a tweet.

Question Time. Fiona has since stated that she was legally obliged to "contextualise a question" about Boris Johnson's father, and that her words were "absolutely not" an expression of her own opinions. Not all Twitter users were convinced, with one suggesting: "Her situation was akin to being both a Lung Cancer Charity spokesperson and Tobacco company spokesperson at the same time.

BBC has suspended Lineker for breaching impartiality guidelines after the sports pundit posted tweets this week criticising Rishi Sunak’s new asylum policy and likened the language used by ministers about asylum seekers to “that used by Germany in the 30s”. The decision has caused massive backlash, with Linker's fellow Match of the Day pundits pulling out of the show this weekend and many high-profile figures coming out to defend the pundit.

Jeremy Clarkson has had his say on the Match of The Day drama as the BBC forced Gary Linker off air from the show this weekend.

Piers Morgan has blasted the BBC's decision to pull Gary Lineker off Match of The Day. The corporation said the presenter's criticism of the government's Migration Bill was a "breach of our guidelines". The sports pundit will now be stepping back from his presenting duties until a "clear position" on his social media use is agreed upon.

Piers Morgan has dismissed Meghan Markle's claims that the then-unborn Prince Archie had been subjected to racism from members of The Royal Family. The Duchess of Sussex sensationally claimed during a bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey that an unnamed member of the family had commented on the colour of his skin. Following the allegations, Prince William in an unexpected move told news reporters that the House of Windsor were "very much not a racist family".

Piers Morgan has joined a chorus of criticism against the BBC’s decision to suspend Gary Lineker after he compared British government rhetoric to Nazi Germany.

Gary Lineker, 62, and Piers Morgan, 57, have a history of former spats, and have argued about almost everything from pay cheques to BBC license fees. However, perhaps to many people's surprise, Piers put in a word of support for his so-called frenemy on Twitter yesterday, telling him he was his "defence". The Match of the Day host exclaimed: "There is no huge influx.

Gary Lineker ‘controversy’ is rumbling on into a third day, and there’s more “bad news” for the presenter – now, his old Twitter foe Piers Morgan is defending him. The Match of the Day presenter criticised Home office policy and compared it to Nazi Germany this week, resulting in a BBC spokesperson stating that he will be “reminded of his responsibilities on social media” by the broadcaster. Lineker commented on a Twitter video put out by Home Secretary Suella Braverman tweet, which saw her discuss government plans to stop migrant boats crossing the Channel.

Piers Morgan has defended Gary Lineker’s criticism of the UK Government’s new asylum policy, arguing that the Match Of The Day host is “not a news reporter”. The Talk TV host said Lineker’s remarks were “clearly incendiary” but that his opinions “should not matter to the BBC’s news output”. Lineker, 62, has faced criticism from members of the Tory party including Downing Street and the Home Office after comparing the language used to launch the policy with 1930s Germany.

Piers Morgan, host of "Piers Morgan Uncensored" on FOX Nation, sounded off on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle for their reaction after being invited to King Charles III's coronation. On "Fox & Friends" Monday, Morgan said the two may attend the event only in order to profit from it in any upcoming books or documentaries.   PIERS MORGAN: Charles has been magnanimous.
