Piers Morgan fumes 'who the f*** does Meghan Markle think she is' amid UK return

Piers Morgan has lashed out again at Meghan Markle, asking "who the f*** does she think she is" amid her return to the UK.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were back in the UK on Monday as they appeared at the One Young World Summit in Manchester.

It comes after Meghan made a number of outspoken claims during a recent interview spree as she promotes her new podcast Archetypes.

Among her claims during a 6,500-word interview with The Cut magazine was the allegation that the British media had called her children “the N-word".

Meghan also seemed to say Prince Harry had talked about a breakdown in his relationship with his own father Prince Charles after the couple moved to the United States. Though, her unofficial spokesman Omid Scobie later said on social media that his understanding was that Prince Harry was actually referring to Meghan's loss of her own father.

Unsurprisingly, Piers used his return to his show Uncensored to let rip at Meghan, claiming that she and Harry wanted to "fleece" their titles and he "wasn't having any of it" and suggesting that they were "damaging the monarchy with every interview they give".

He also took to his column in The Sun as he fumed: "Even by her standards, it’s staggeringly, stupendously, preposterously absurd for a woman who married a multi-millionaire prince, gave up her job, and now lives entirely off the gargantuan proceeds of his royal status that she ruthlessly fleeces to the highest bidders, lecturing anyone about poverty and equality.

"But for Markle to pull this stunt in Britain, the country she loathes and couldn’t wait to abandon once she sunk her claws into halfwit Harry, at a time when we’re in the midst of the worst financial crisis since the end of World War Two, is as sickening as it’s outrageous."

He added: "To be blunt, who the f*** does she think she is coming back here at all after all the vile manure she’s gleefully flung at Britain, the Monarchy and the Royal Family?"

Piers went on to accuse the couple of being "shamefully tone deaf" for giving a keynote address about poverty and gender equality.

He then suggested that Meghan and Harry should be stripped of their royal titles.

The presenter said: "As always with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex – I still don’t understand why the hell they’re allowed to keep these titles given how cynically they exploit them for personal financial gain - their actions are riddled with hypocrisy".
