Piers Morgan’s Twitter account appears to have been hacked as he tweeted “f*** the Queen”.
The Talk TV presenter appears to have had his Twitter account taken over by troublemakers in the early hours of Tuesday morning (December 27), tweeting that they will leak Piers’ DMs with “high profiled celebrities”.
Twitter users were shocked to see the 57-year-old’s account post rude tweets about the late-Queen Elizabeth, as well as Ed Sheeran and internet celebrities.

However, it quickly became apparent that the star’s Twitter account had been hacked and taken over seemingly by a group identifying themselves as the ‘chuckling squad’.
Piers’ account name was changed a number of times – including being changed to ‘lol’ and also ‘Michael’ – while more colourful language was also used to rename his account.
One tweet that was sent out caused shock when it simply stated: “f*** the queen”, while another said: “p***in on the f***** Queen n****”.
Another tweet branded pop singer Ed Sheehan a ‘ginger p****”, as well as a “ginger f*****”.
One tweet even went as far as to suggest that the hackers would leak Piers’ messages with other celebs, stating:”1k RT’s and I’ll leak DMs with high profiled celebrities”.

Twitter users quickly jumped on the opportunity and asked the hackers to reveal the star’s direct messages with Meghan Markle.
One follower tweeted: “I Want to see why Piers hate Megan Markle so much. Go to Megan’s DMs” along with crying-with-laughter emojis.
However, the hackers responded to claim there was “nothing interesting” within the private messages.

Further stars were also targeted during the melee of messages, with the apparent hackers sending a public message to former Prime Minister Boris Johnson demanding he get a haircut and branding him an “ugly bum”.
After approximately an hour of chaos, it appeared that Twitter bosses took control of the situation as most of the offensive tweets were suddenly wiped from the account.
Tweets that had been sent were now no longer visible, while Piers’ bio was wiped, along with images and the banner also being removed.
