Piers Morgan’s wife Celia Walden takes swipe at ‘desperate’ Meghan Markle in TV appearance

Meghan and Piers have been feuding for years

Piers Morgan has had a longstanding feud with Meghan Markle, and now his wife Celia Walden has got involved.

Ever since Meghan posted a video yesterday (June 4) of her dancing right before she gave birth to daughter Lilibet in 2021, numerous people have blasted her for it, including Celia.

Meghan Markle called out by Celia Walden

The Duchess of Sussex has received a lot of backlash for numerous different things over the years. But after sharing the throwback video of her and Prince Harry to celebrate Lilibet’s fourth birthday on June 4, she has faced an intense amount of hate.

Celia Walden, Piers‘ wife, appeared on the British ITV morning show Lorraine to discuss Meghan’s post. And she didn’t hold her thoughts back.

She said to host Ranvir Singh that Meghan was “desperate”.

Celia explained: “I think we’re going to see more and more stuff offered up for public consumption. As she gets a big more desperate to make people like her.”

Ranvir asked why Celia thinks she’s desperate, and doesn’t believe Meghan was just “oversharing” like “everybody does”.

Celia responded: “That is true. But I do feel with her, very, very little is not premeditated, I have to say. I’m not sure how much he has to do with the decision-making. I could be being very unfair, perhaps he is fully in charge in that relationship.”

Fellow guest reverend Richard Coles jumped in, explaining that the video helps the pair fund their new lifestyle, away from the royal family.

He commented: “The opportunities for earning that kind of money you’d need to keep that show on the road are few. And the pressure then is on if you’re going to feed the beast. What’s the next tip that you throw?”

However, Celia disagreed, believing there was a different way for Meghan and Harry to fund their lives together. She believes they can’t have the wish for privacy, and publicly share things.

She stated: “There is no judgement. But you can’t have both.”

On the opposite end, Ranvir defended the couple, calling the video “funny and warm”.

Piers Morgan and Meghan Markle feud

After Meghan apparently “ghosted” Piers, he began to take digs and swipes at her and Harry’s relationship whenever he had the chance. Over the years, he developed the nickname “Princess Pinocchio” for her.

In the end, Meghan and Harry’s tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021 actually acted as the catalyst for Piers leaving his role on UK news show Good Morning Britain.

While discussing some of the comments made by Meghan and Harry, Piers clashed with some of his colleagues on the show, and dramatically walked off set.

The comments Piers made were in regard to not believing Meghan when she admitted her struggles about mental health. And his words sparked 58,000 Ofcom complaints – including one from Meghan herself.

That wasn’t the end of their feud though, as the TV presenter continues to make digs and comments about the duchess.
