Back in March, Piers clashed with ITV weather reporter Alex Beresford following Meghan Markle’s comments in an interview with Oprah Winfrey, which resulted in him storming off the set.
The Duchess of Sussex claimed that her mental health had suffered as a member of the royal family, to which the GMB host said he “didn’t believe” her.
Hours later, ITV released a statement confirming the presenter’s departure from the show after six years of fronting it alongside Susanna Reid.
Following Piers’ comments, Ofcom received a record-breaking 58,000 complaints, which the regulator has now dismissed, ruling that the former newspaper editor did not breach their code of conduct with his comments about the former Suits actress.
