Piers Morgan has been called out by TalkTV viewers after a telling interview with Prince Harry’s former lover, who took his virginity as a teenager.
The journalist spoke to Sasha Walpole on the show and he grilled her over her night with the former royal.
Morgan and Walpole discussed the romp, which happened in a field behind a pub and was described in detail in Prince Harry’s new memoir Spare.

Fans gathered on Twitter to slam Piers and branded the interview as “skid row” journalism.
One tweeted: “Supermarket tabloid fodder.”
Another wrote: “How low can you go?”
A third said: “Absolute gutter journalism. Hang your head in shame.”
Others gathered to say that they “didn’t give a f***,” that Piers was a “seedy little man” and the “barrel being was being well and truly scraped”.

During the interview, Sasha couldn’t resist taking a cheeky swipe at the Duke of Sussex’s wife Meghan Markle.
When asked by Morgan if Prince Harry had “traded up or down,” Sasha laughed: “Definitely down!”
He went on to make a reference to Sasha’s job on a building site and joked that Harry had “gone from a digger to a gold digger”.
Walpole then added: “I sit on the fence. I don’t know the lady, I wish him all the best. I wish him the happiest […] He is not the boy that I remember, that’s for sure. But again, I am not in his shoes.”
“I have no idea what’s going on in his head. I haven’t seen him for 21 years, but you know, you make your own happiness.”

Piers then asked Walpole why she had never decided to sell her story to the press and profit off the potential earnings.
Sasha confessed that Harry was “a friend” and that she “kind of felt protective” of him.
She added that it had “never really occurred to her to cash is” because she views “some things better left unsaid”.
However, after Piers pointed out the irony of Harry exposing their story to the world, Sasha did admit that she “didn’t know why he included it in the book”.
