Piers Morgan has 'nothing better to do' blasts Carol McGiffin but 'persecute royal couple'

Piers Morgan, 56, and Carol McGiffin, 61, have been embroiled in a bitter exchange after the latter hit out the former Good Morning Britain presenter in her latest column. The Loose Women host admitted that she “loathes” the broadcast journalist.

Piers recently reacted to the news of their feud as he took to Twitter and unleashed some harsh words.

In view of his 7.9 million followers, the ex-GMB host said: “I don’t have feuds with irrelevant has-beens.”

Carol took to the micro-blogging site today and has resurrected their heated exchange as she reacted to his comments.

The Loose Women host shared a screenshot of Piers’ tweet as she claimed the presenter spends his time “persecuting a certain royal couple”.

While the columnist did not mention any names, Piers has been vocal about his criticism of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in recent months.

In view of her 441,000 followers, Carol penned: “Talking of has-beens, this is the man who appears to have nothing better to do these days than drone on about his Covid ‘journey’ and persecute a certain royal couple.”

She added two emojis, one with rolling eyes and another with a yawning face.

Piers sensationally departed his role on Good Morning Britain in March following a refusal to apologise for comments made about the Duchess of Sussex.

She wrote: “I’m loathing Piers Morgan, it pains me even to write his name.

“This hypocritical monster continues to preach, smear, defame, demonise, insult everyone who doesn’t agree with him or do as he says, while he continues to do as he pleases.”

Carol continued: “I hope he keeps it up because judging by the feedback he’s getting in comments and on social media, the more he lectures, the more people fight against it all.”

Earlier this week, Carol also hit out at Piers during an appearance on Kevin O’Sullivan’s TalkRADIO show.

Carol fumed: “He’s got a book out about free speech, the blurb on it is basically saying people can’t debate anymore and they just shut people down.

“I’m thinking: ‘Hang on – here’s the blocker who’s shutting people down because he doesn’t want to hear what I’ve got to say to him’. The hypocrisy is absolutely breath-taking.”

The outspoken star continued: ”I’m going to show people how intolerant he’s become of any kind of dissent, especially when it comes to this virus.”

Carol previously revealed that she blocked Piers on social media.
