PIERS Morgan has slammed Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Oprah interview, calling it a “disgraceful betrayal.”

The Good Morning Britain presenter took to Twitter to share his reaction to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s 90-minute special interview with Oprah Winfrey.

Piers, who was born in Newick, asked if it was “too late” to nominate Meghan Markle for an Oscar after she made a series of claims around hostility and racism.

He tweeted: “This interview is an absolutely disgraceful betrayal of the Queen and the Royal Family.

“I expect all this vile, destructive self-serving nonsense from Meghan Markle – but for Harry to let her take down his family and the Monarchy like this is shameful.”

Morgan accused the Duke of Sussex of wanting the world to “hate” the royal family.

Speaking on Good Morning Britain after the release of the full interview, he said the couple had “trashed everything the Queen had worked so hard for” and said their decision to go ahead with the interview while Prince Philip remains in hospital was “contemptible.”

In another Tweet, he said: “Let’s be clear: Prince Harry and his wife just spent two hours trashing everything the Queen stands for and has worked so hard to maintain.

“And they did it while her 99 year old husband Philip is seriously ill in hospital. It’s contemptible.”

Meghan and Harry’s much-anticipated tell-all with chat show queen Winfrey finally aired on Sunday evening in the US, in the early hours of Monday UK time.

In the first few minutes of the controversial primetime spectacle, former actress Meghan said: “I went in naively because I didn’t grow up knowing much about the royal family.”

She added of her royal role “I didn’t fully understand what the job was”.

The interview is seen as a crisis point in the monarchy’s troubled times as the acrimonious fallout from Megxit worsened.
