Presenter Piers Morgan has apologised to singer Ed Sheeran over a tweet sent from his account by a hacker on Boxing Day.
The former Good Morning Britain (GMB) presenter, who has 8.3 million followers on the social media site, described the posts by the hacker as “abusive nonsense”. According to reports, Morgan’s account shared posts containing false information, racial slurs and abusive messages directed at the late Queen.
Following the hack, the account appeared to wiped, removing the header image, profile picture, and all the posts. His account has been inactive until last night, when he posted a tweet criticising Prince Harry.
