He’s never been one to mince his words, and first thing on Monday morning was no exception.
Piers Morgan took things a step further as he appeared on Good Morning Britain, shocking co-stars Susannah Reid and Charlotte Hawkins with a lewd joke about Prince Harry’s sex life with Megan Markle.
The cheeky presenter, 52, questioned why a couple ‘who have sex’ were sat 50 meters apart from each other at a recent event, leaving his co-stars stunned.
Awks! Piers Morgan shocked co-stars Susannah Reid and Charlotte Hawkins with a lewd joke about Prince Harry’s sex life with Megan Markle
The couple enjoyed their first official engagement over the weekend, appearing together at the Invictus Games- but sitting separately.
And pondering over their appearance, Piers quipped on live TV: ‘It’s common sense. It’s ridiculous. When have you ever been to a sporting event when your 50m from the person you’re having sex with?’.
His comments left his co-stars dumbstruck, as they laughed awkwardly, chiding him over his crudeness.

Low key: Prince Harry and Megan Markle (pictured) enjoyed their first official engagement over the weekend, appearing together at the Invictus Games- but sitting separately
Scolding him jokingly , Susannah hit back with: ‘How come we’ve got to 12 minutes passed 7.00 and you’re saying that on the television.’
But defiant Piers turned things around on the stunned brunette, branding her ‘ridiculous’ for not admitting that couples ‘get intimate’ in the bedroom.
‘They’ve done it apparently to avoid attention, all they’ve done is get ten times more attention,’ he concluded.

The couple were not seated together at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, she was sat just a few feet away from the Queen’s grandson, who was accompanied by US First Lady Melania Trump.
Wearing a purple dress and a matching $690 Mackage leather jacket slung over her shoulders, Meghan was escorted by her close friend Markus Anderson who introduced her to Prince Harry last year.
Her low key presence marks the first time she has joined the Royal for an official event and will intensify speculation that an engagement announcement is imminent.
Harry, seated a quarter of a stadium away, occupied a VIP box alongside Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, US First Lady Melania Trump and Ukraine’s President Poroshenko.
Because they are not engaged, royal protocol dictates that Harry and Meghan cannot sit next to one another at official events.
The distance – 18 seats and four rows – did nothing to dampen the actress’s excitement or pride. She beamed as Harry gave an inspiring and humble speech on stage during which he told the 550 athletes gathered: ‘You are all winners. You are Invictus.’
Meanwhile Harry seemed unable to keep his eyes off his radiant girlfriend and was spotted glancing down towards her seat on a number of occasions.
