Piers Morgan ‘thanks’ Meghan Markle in award speech: ‘Without her I wouldn’t be standing here’
speech at Tuesday’s Television and Radio Industries Club awards ceremony in London.The “Piers Morgan Uncensored” host, 58, won the trophy for interview of the year and unexpectedly praised the 41-year-old former actress.“I want to thank Meghan Markle because, if you think about it, without her contribution to my career I would never have gone to TalkTV,” he joked.“I would never have been standing here with this award,” the British TV broadcaster went on.The Post columnist and the Duchess of Sussex have a rocky and contentious relationship, with Morgan often taking swipes at her.When Harry, 38, and Markle did a bombshell sit-down chat with Oprah Winfrey back in March 2021, Morgan lost his position on ITV’s “Good Morning Britain.”The journalist had been ripping into the two at the time and got into a heated debate with weatherman Alex Beresford. Morgan then stormed off the set in the middle of the telecast.He then left his job at the morning show and made the move to TalkTV with his “Uncensored” show.His feud with Markle stems back to the early days of her relationship with the Invictus Games founder.The pair actually used to be friends before things went sour, as Markle contacted him on Twitter when she visited England to watch pal Serena Williams at Wimbledon in 2016.The “Suits” alum tweeted at Morgan and they met at a bar to grab a drink.
