Piers Morgan sure gets riled up whenever he’s “defending” the Royal family against what he views as the ungrateful Prince Harry and the woman who “ghosted” him after a pub date, Meghan Markle. The ex-Good Morning Britain and current Fox Nation talking head is so very upset about what he calls the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s ongoing disrespect for his beloved Queen. This began last year after the Sussexes sat down with Oprah Winfrey and discussed fleeing to the U.S. due to venom from the Royals, which Meghan alleged included racist statements about their son, Archie.
Then Piers raged hard because Meghan dared to earn a living by writing a children’s book, and now, he’s one-upping himself by firing off barbs over Prince Harry’s upcoming memoir. It’s understood that the book won’t be the most flattering account of Harry’s experience in The Firm, and Penguin Random House has now (via Variety) confirmed the name of the memoir (Spare!) and the release date, January 10.
The title feels like an obvious (and accurate, with tone left open to interpretation) reference to how royal siblings are referred to as “the heir and the spare.” Yesterday, Piers was already warming up because Harry (who has definitely watched The Crown on Netflix) isn’t trashing The Crown on Netflix. And Piers had to point out that Netflix is “his employer,” and he’s had it with “Harry’s silence.”
Prince Harry's silence over The Crown furore says it all.
He despises people dishing intrusive inaccurate dirt about his family – unless it is him, his wife, or his employer doing it, then, it's fine.— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) October 25, 2022
Yet he doesn’t want Harry talking, either, especially because Piers feels that a January memoir release is timed to “ruin” King Charles III’s coronation date in early May 2023. “Charles should strip this petulant, selfish, greedy, hypocritical brat of all his remaining royal titles/status ASAP,” Piers wrote on Twitter.
CONFIRMED: Prince Privacy will hurl his latest torrent of malevolent money-making muck at the Royal Family just in time to ruin his father’s coronation as King.

Further, Piers has had it with Harry while remarking “what a d*ckhead” because “he trashes his family, again, from his California mansion. All while playing the big privacy & ‘humanitarian’ crusader.”
Playing the victim, again, as he trashes his family, again, from his California mansion. All while playing the big privacy & ‘humanitarian’ crusader… what a d*ckhead. 🙄 pic.twitter.com/WH2JAApTZc

The responses are rolling in with one Twitter user observing, “All this just because she wouldn’t shag you.”
All this just because she wouldn’t shag you 🤣

Other remarked upon how Harry’s donating his memoir proceeds to charity, and he makes his own living rather than enjoying those sweet British tax dollars. Then there are the people who are actually inspired to order the book due to Piers’ vitriol, and it does seem like he’s still hung up on Meghan Markle.
If Megan was still talking to you I bet your opinion would be different

Your hate for Harry and Megan, seriously….You as an individual you totally NEED healing….

you're conveniently leaving out that proceeds from the memoir are being donated to two charities. You haven't read the contents of the book so how would you know it will ruin the coronation…

Can't you spend this petty energy on the government instead of Harry and Meghan? At least the government affect our daily lives

I can’t wait to read it. Finally someone is standing up and speaking out about this corrupt family!! Far too many times their behaviour and events have been covered up and false stories told to the press. Charles’ reaction to the crown recently speaks volumes!

The only tolerable member of the Royal Family, the one who isn't a freeloader and had the balls to walk away – is the one you decide to victimise. Typical.
I hope he leaves you a nasty message -on his own voicemail, so you don't miss it. Scumbag.

I had no idea this book was being released until Piers started bringing attention to it @RoyalFamily . He’s doing a better job at building it up to be an exciting read than the book’s publisher! Amazing job Piers. I’m 100% buying it now!

Other royals have written books! What’s the difference?
