Piers Morgan 'storms off' during heated debate with Lorraine Kelly

Piers Morgan 'stormed off' during an interview with Lorraine Kelly as they discussed his Good Morning Britain exit.

The two got into a heated clash when discussing Piers exit from the ITV show, as Lorraine screamed and squashed his claims the exit 'doesn't count' since he went in and finished the show.

Piers infamously quit GMB, which he co-hosted with Susanna Reid since 2015, after bosses called for him to apologise for remarks he made about Meghan Markle - which he refused to do.

The duo seemed to poke fun at Piers behaviour as he 'storms off' the Lorraine set on Thursday morning, in a joke manner as both can't hold back their laughter, as reports the Mirror.

The pair discussed a wide range of topics - from his interview with Donald Trump, Prince Harry, his ITV exit and even trans issues - with some of his remarks visibly frustrating Lorraine.

Piers confirmed that he never wanted to leave ITV after his Meghan Markle comments, but was allegedly told by bosses he had to apologise or leave.

Following the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey, in which Meghan claimed that a royal voiced "concerns" over Archie's skin colour and that she felt suicidal but wasn't able to get help, Piers accused her of lying as he fiercely lashed out at her on Good Morning Britain.

After a Twitter battle with weatherman Alex Beresford, Piers called him to appear on the show the next day to debate the topic.

However, a furious row erupted on set, which led to Piers storming off set as Alex called his behaviour "diabolical".

The former Life Stories presenter launches his brand new show on TalkTV next week, Piers Morgan Uncensored, as he interviews Donald Trump.

The chat between the ex pals quickly becomes heated as Trump brands Piers a "fool" and "dishonest" before storming out of the interview.

Viewers took to Twitter to share their thoughts on Piers and his dramatic actions on the show.

One wrote: "Piers made some very valid points regarding cancel culture. #lorraine "

"Unfortunately Piers has a good point. You’re not allowed to have an opinion these days because people will say it’s wrong even though it’s an opinion #lorraine," another penned.

A third agreed: "Completely agree with @piersmorgan on #lorraine today. Why should people have the same opinion just to on the in crew side. Walk alone with you’re own opinion. Not that I agree with all piers opinions but we should all have our own thoughts and opinions"

Lorraine airs weekdays at 9am on ITV
