Piers Morgan has sparked speculation he is on the cusp of stepping down from Good Morning Britain.
The outspoken TV host, who co-hosts the hit ITV breakfast show alongside Susanna Reid, took to Instagram on Thursday morning to tease an impending big announcement .
Posting to his 7.6 million followers, Piers wrote: “I’ll be making a big announcement at midday. Watch this space.”

Replying to the tweet, one fan wrote: “You will pretend you’re leaving good morning Britain and it was mutual but the truth is they are getting rid.”
Another replied: “You’ve been booted from ITV but they have agreed to make it look like you’re walking away so you save face?”
A third speculated: “That you are finally leaving GMB?”

“Please confirm you are stepping out of the public light and crawling back under a rock?” a fourth mocked.
However, other users were left hoping Piers wasn’t stepping down.
“I hope you are not leaving GMB. We need you there,” one fan begged.
A second added: “Are you leaving GMB?” before signing off with a sad faced emoji.

Despite the mass speculation and the fact he’s been the focus of various Ofcom investigations due to his no nonsense nature on the show , don’t expect Piers to be cutting short his time on Good Morning Britain just yet.
Speaking earlier this year, the former newspaper editor confirmed he had signed a new contract to keep him on the show until next year.
Piers said: “I’ve just signed a new contract up for GMB until the end of next year. I love working with Susanna and the team – we’re a yin-yang that works.”
