Piers Morgan reignites Meghan Markle feud with scathing Queen's Jubilee comments

Piers Morgan has reignited his feud with Meghan Markle ahead of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

The former Good Morning Britain - who claims he lost his job on the daytime show because of her - has claimed that she will "hijack headlines" along with her husband Prince Harry, next week.

The 57-year-old launched a scathing attack on the star on his programme, Uncensored, on Thursday, where he discussed the upcoming celebrations and how the couple will "make the Jubilee all about themselves".

It was recently reported that Meghan and Harry will be attending the Queen's Jubilee Service at St Paul's Cathedral on 4 June.

Piers, who has a longstanding issue with the Duchess, spoke about the pair turning up at the celebrations next week.

He ranted: "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, the southern English county that I come from, incidentally, where they've spent precisely three hours, are a pair of undignified, whiney, hypocritical virtue-signalling, selfish wastrels.

"The privacy demanding, poverty preaching carbon-conscious couple will fly 5,000 miles, spilling 1.5 metric tones of CO2 emissions, accompanied of course by the Netflix documentary camera crew recording their Kardashian-style, reality show.

"The emissions of most concern to me, however, are the other noxious toxic fumes they will inevitably emit from the moment they land here and make the jubilee all about themselves.

"And I'm already shuddering at how this fame-hungry duo will hijack the headlines from the woman who should be given them purely to cement their rival royal brand."

Not too long ago, Piers went in on Meghan and branded her a "huge narcissist" over her reported plans to be US President.

He was particularly irked by comments from current US President Joe Biden 's sister, Valeria Biden, who said Meghan would be a good potential candidate for the White House in the future, should she wish to pursue a career in politics.

Despite the fact she has never voiced any desire to become American leader, Piers voiced his fury toward the former actress, calling her a "scheming Princess Pinocchio" during a segment on his TalkTV show.

Piers slated her lack of talent, and political experience, during the 'Brain Dump' section of his show, and played the clip of Valerie innocently throwing her support behind Meghan.

When asked if the Suits star would be a good candidate for US President, she told Good Morning Britain: "Yes, perhaps of course she will."

She continued: "The more women we have, the better our democratic system will work. We welcome her to come in and join the Democratic Party."

Piers was left foaming at the mouth over the possibility Meghan could dip her toe into politics, and accused her of "hooking her claws" into Prince Harry in an effort to further her career.

"What? Is that a joke? Perhaps there is somebody out there less suited to becoming the leader of the Free World but I can't currently think of one," he fumed.

"Before you think this is some kind of joke, remember that Meghan Markle's old friends probably thought the same thing when she told them she was gonna hook her claws into a British prince and make herself stupendously rich and famous," a red-faced Piers continued.

He said he “wouldn’t put anything past” Meghan, and said the White House would be a “perfectly feasible next rung on her relentless climb up the social ladder”.
