Piers Morgan has been dubbed a 'master troll' and mocked online after revealing he had hip replacement surgery following a bad fall at a London restaurant. The British broadcaster, known for his controversial remarks, announced his hospitalisation on social media, prompting a wave of reactions from critics who seized the opportunity to target the outspoken personality.

Social media users questioned whether Morgan was genuinely seeking sympathy or simply courting attention, with some suggesting he remains 'the internet's main character'. The announcement also drew criticism after Morgan linked his injury to President Donald Trump's political decisions.
