Yesterday, March 9, Piers Morgan’s wife Celia Walden followed in her husband’s footsteps by calling Meghan Markle’s interview with Oprah Winfrey a “feature-length drama”.
Prince Harry and the Duchess of Sussex joined the iconic talk show host for a tell-all interview, which aired on ITV in the UK on Monday, March 8.
Celia, who writes a column for The Telegraph, wrote sarcastically about Meghan’s “Oscar-winning performance”.
This happened the same day as her husband decided to leave Good Morning Britain after saying he didn’t “believe” anything that Meghan said in the interview.
The 45-year-old, who is also a journalist, has been married to Piers since 2010.

In an interview with Amanda Holden on Heart FM, Piers revealed how he and Celia first met in 2006.
He said “I was doing a speech in front of 1,000 people – magazine editors – in some fancy hotel in Mayfair and I absolutely died on my backside to the extent that they were openly jeering me, and the only person that was laughing was Celia, who I’d never met, and I went ‘who’s that?’
“She said ‘that just bombed’ and I said, ‘I thought that was hilarious’ but she was laughing really at my discomfort. So I realised then that she would be perfect bride material!”
Piers and Celia tied the knot in 2010 at a stunning small church ceremony in Oxfordshire.
