PIERS Morgan has revealed he's lent his Sussex home to loved ones during the coronavirus pandemic.

The TV host took to Twitter on Sunday to slam those who took advantage of the sunny weekend weather to sunbathe in local parks, branding them "selfish, reckless b*****ds".

But when critics proposed that he was isolating with a "massive garden and pool", Piers unveiled the extent of his situation.

One Twitter user said: "Wonder if Piers Morgan is giving up his massive garden and pool in sympathy with all the families in cramped council flats he thinks are selfish reckless b******s for enjoying a bit of sun."

The 55-year-old was quick to give his side of the story, stating his garden was "very small" and at the same time revealed that his homes in Sussex and LA were occupied by his loved one.

He wrote: "I’m in London with no pool, and a very small garden.

The Argus:

"I’ve lent my LA home to a friend who had a very small one.

"And my parents are self-isolating at our Sussex home.

"Hope this helps with your concerns, which have nothing to do with someone’s ability to observe simple rules."

Piers, whose Sussex home is located in Newick, had earlier defended the size of his garden to followers on Twitter on Saturday.

Alongside a snap of his outdoor space, he penned: "For all those asking, this is the size of my ‘massive f**king garden’ at my London home where I will be for the duration of this crisis.

"I can only apologise for the ostentatious, luxurious enormity of it."

Meanwhile, only a smattering of people could be seen taking their daily exercise on the Brighton and Hove promenade today after the city’s council urged people to stay away.

On Saturday Brighton and Hove City Council warned that “too many people are on the seafront making social distancing impossible” and “too many people are using the seafront to meet up with friends” in an urgent message to citizens.

Council leader Nancy Platts said she had received several messages from concerned residents who had seen a large number of people congregating near Brighton beach, sparking the announcement.

This followed repeated warnings from the authority, as well as the Government, coastguard and Sussex Police, in the run-up to the weekend, asking people to stay at home - despite the promise of warmer weather on the south coast.

Despite this, many people disregarded the advice and gathered on the promenade - including one duo who saw fit to fire up a barbecue on the beach.
