Meghan Markle: Piers Morgan May Return To Good Morning Britain Show. by xoftxoul: 1:38pm On Sep 01, 2021
Former Good Morning Britain host Piers Morgan has celebrated his Ofcom victory after Ofcom ruled that he was "entitled" to share his views about Meghan Markle's interview with Oprah Winfrey.
Piers Morgan has said he's "delighted" as Ofcom cleared his rants on Meghan Markle on Good Morning Britain.

The journalist, 56, made Ofcom history as his rants about the Duchess of Sussex became the most complained about moment on TV, with a total of 57,121 complaints.

Meghan, 40, was amongst those who complained to the regulator about Piers' comments. The former GMB host sensationally stormed off the GMB set and later quit the show following his rants.

Now, Ofcom have ruled that Piers' comments have not broken any of the regulator's rules.

The ruling from the regulatory body reads: "The interview between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Oprah Winfrey contained serious allegations and it was legitimate for this Programme to discuss and scrutinise those claims inglcuing their veracity.

"Ofcom is clear that, consistent with freedom of expression, Mr Morgan was entitled to say be disbelieved the Duke and Duchess' allegations and to told and express strong views that rigorously challenged their account.

"The Code allows for individuals to express strongly held and robustly argued views, including those that are potentially harmful or highly offensive, and for broadcasters to include these in their programming.

Piers soon celebrated the ruling as he wrote on his Twitter page: "I’m delighted OFCOM has endorsed my right to disbelieve the Duke & Duchess of Sussex’s incendiary claims to Oprah Winfrey, many of which have proven to be untrue.

"This is a resounding victory for free speech and a resounding defeat for Princess Pinocchios."


He then ended the tweet by asking: "Do I get my job back?"

Piers later shared the news on his Instagram page and was supported by his son Spencer who commented: "Never in doubt" followed by a fist bump emoji.
