(sic)Piers was filling in for Channel Nine presenter Karl Stefanovic as he hosted Australia’s Today show alongside co-presenter Allison Langdon.The journalist previously co-hosted ITV Breakfast programme Good Morning Britain with Susanna Reid between 2015 and 2021.In March of last year, Piers dramatically walked out of the GMB studio following a row over the Duchess of Sussex.Shortly before the incident occurred, Meghan Markle and husband Prince Harry were interviewed by Oprah Winfrey in a TV special.During the interview, Meghan opened up about her mental health and even suggested that she had been feeling suicidal, which Piers said he “didn’t believe a word” of.In reaction to Piers’ dismissive attitude towards the Duchess, on the next day's show weather presenter Alex Beresford criticised his colleague on air for "continuing to trash" Meghan, prompting Piers to walk off set.Following the disagreement, Piers left Good Morning Britain for good and has remained an outspoken critic of both Meghan and Harry.The journalist then surprised Australian viewers when he appeared on their screens.
