Piers Morgan unleashes fury at Prince Harry’s public ‘self-destruction’ in explosive return to TalkTV

Piers Morgan wasted no time in kicking off at Prince Harry as he made his explosive return to TalkTV on Monday night.

Before coming to blows with Trisha Goddard over the Duke of Sussex’s denial that the royal family is racist, the broadcaster focussed his attention directly on the prince, and branded his ‘public self-destruction’ as ‘very sad’.

His no-holds-barred rant aimed at Prince Harry comes amid the release of his memoir, Spare, and his recent bombshell interviews, in one of which he accused his family of ‘getting into bed with the devil’.

Morgan began: ‘I took two weeks off and all hell broke loose but as usual most of the hell is coming from Prince Harry’s mouth.

‘The claims he’s made this week have detonated a bomb. But this weapons-grade hypocrite has done nothing more than reduce his own reputation to rubble.

‘And, after torching what’s left of the bridges back to his family, he now begins a new “personal journey” we are told – one that ends with ridicule, and irrelevance.’

He raged on: ‘The Prince who fled Britain to protect his family’s privacy has laid bare every tawdry detail of his private life, from drug abuse to intimate conversations with his father the King, even at Prince Philip’s funeral.

‘The dad who fears for the security of his family apparently has put a target on their backs now and on the backs of the royal family and on his former military colleagues with his stupid boasts about killing 25 Taliban, which he calls chess pieces.

‘The “BeKind” ambassador – so earnestly invested in women’s rights – brags about mocking a disabled matron at his prep school. He names her, he said she was called Pat and too greasy to make him feel horny… how does she feel about that if she is still around? How do her family feel about that?’

At this point, Morgan directed his commentary straight at Prince Harry.

‘What’s sad, Harry, is your public self-destruction and the remorseless way you savaged your loved ones to airbrush yourself,’ he said.

Many viewers were quick to express their agreement with Morgan on social media, with one writing: ‘Spot on Piers. Exactly that.’

Echoing a similar sentiment, another said: ‘Piers. You say what 90 percent of the civilised world thinks. Thank you.’

Yep, Morgan is officially back in the building alright.

Piers Morgan Uncensored airs weekdays at 8pm on TalkTV.
