Piers Morgan storms back to daytime TV on Lorraine—viewers split! Critics gag, ‘Nauseating!’ Fans cheer, ‘He’s back!’ Love him or loathe him, he’s stirring the pot again.
Lorraine viewers were left divided after Piers Morgan returned to daytime TV on Tuesday.
While some critics branded the journalist, 59, ‘nauseating’ others raved ‘it’s good to have him back!’
Piers Morgan joined Lorraine Kelly, 65, on her show to discuss Donald Trump’s potential return to the White House.
The broadcaster left ITV in 2021 following backlash over his criticism of Meghan Markle—refusing to apologize despite pressure from the show’s bosses.
Originally joining Good Morning Britain in 2015, Morgan is now best known for hosting Piers Morgan Uncensored.
His return to TV sparked a flurry of reactions on X, formerly known as Twitter, with many sharing their thoughts on seeing him back on screen.
One brutally said: ‘Get rid of Piers Morgan. He does not deserve air time on #Lorraine.’
