Piers Morgan launches another blistering tirade at Meghan Markle in US documentary

Piers Morgan has made his feelings extremely clear on the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle fallout.

But now the Good Morning Britain presenter has had another pop at the Duchess of Sussex, slamming her as a "mini royal Kim Kardashian."

Piers, 54, has made his latest stinging comments in US documentary Harry & Meghan: The Royals In Crisis which is a TMZ investigation into Harry and Meghan's decision to quit their lives as senior royals.

He said: "Meghan is one of the most ruthless social climbers I have ever met in my entire life.

"Anyone who thinks she wants to get out of the fame element is living in cloud cuckoo land. What she wants to do is be a global superstar, riding off the fame she has acquired by marrying a member of the royal family."

The controversial star then continued his scathing rant by claiming that Prince Harry will come to "deeply regret" his decision.

Piers continued: "They're going to have to go out and be overtly aggressively commercial. They will have to sell it like a celebrity. It will go down extremely badly with British public.

"I think Harry will come to deeply regret what he has done."

He then added about Meghan: "She's going to end up like a mini royal Kim Kardashian with all the ignominy that goes with that title.

"Already you are seeing a big backlash in Britain and the rest of the world really sees what it is, which is a power grab by two ego-mad, self-obsessed, virtue signalling ‘progressive’ young people who basically stamped their feet and the Queen rolled over."

The royal couple announced the shocking news of their plans to 'step back' as senior members of the royal family to focus on 'the next chapter' at the start of the year.

Since, both Harry and Meghan have retreated to North America with son Archie after the Queen announced that they will drop their royal titles and will pay rent on their UK home.

In his first emotional speech since announcing the news, Harry, 35, said there was 'no other option' for him and his wife before paying tribute to his grandmother as his "commander in chief".
