Piers Morgan has taken aim at Meghan Markle and Prince Harry.
The 54-year-old was expressing his views on Good Morning Britain where he said people need to ‘man up’ and not get down over bad hair days.
And while telling his co-host Susanna Reid that he would always be there for her if she had a serious problem, he managed to drag today’s ‘spineless’ society.
The father-of-four insisted: ‘When things really matter and I can see it matters, I’m there.’
He went onto question Susanna: ‘When have you ever said to me I have a real problem and I haven’t been there?’
The 48-year-old joked that she would never go to Piers with any major problem, but that didn’t stop the debate.
The controversial presenter continued: ‘If you’re having a bad hair day, I’m not your guy, if you have a real problem I’m there.
‘That’s called empathy where you have perspective on life, where you see everyone has stuff to deal with every day.
‘You just need to man up. If it’s serious – I have perspective and I have things I go through – do I bother you? No, everyone goes through stuff in life.’
Turning to the royals, who have recently enjoyed a trip to South Africa, he said: ‘Meghan and Harry go to Africa and they go on about their horrible life, and it’s like, “no, you have just been to Africa where they have nothing.”
‘We have become world-class wallowers, I’m allowed to say what I think, I won’t get arrested, yet…
‘You’ve just come from South Africa where there’s absolute poverty, is that the time to come back and say “woe is me?” No, it isn’t.’
The star went onto note the difference between sadness and depression: ‘I think depression is a serious condition that needs serious treatment.
‘When I see rates of anxiety quadrupling, a lot of this stuff is minor life stuff and we all have to deal with it, there’s a massive difference with clinical depression and low-level life stuff. We have just become so spineless, I don’t get it.’
Good Morning Britain continues weekdays at 6am on ITV.
