Piers Morgan's eldest son Spencer Morgan has made a public show of support for his dad on the night his departure from Good Morning Britain was confirmed.
First Spencer urged people to 'be kind' after it was revealed more than 41,000 had made complaints to Ofcom about Piers' conduct.
Taking to Twitter on Tuesday evening, Spencer typed: "What you all actually mean is #bekind to people you like isn’t it. Fake a** dreamers. I see you."
The statement came hours after it was announced that broadcasting watchdog Ofcom received more than 41,000 complaints about comments made by Piers Morgan about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s interview with Oprah Winfrey.
Later, as Piers dramatic GMB exit was onfirmed by iTV, Spencer returned to social media.
He tweeted a photo with his dad and wrote: "Team Piers. Always, forever."
Piers had enraged viewers are he spent much of Monday's GMB ranting about the bombshell allegations made by Meghan and Prince Harry as they sat down with Oprah Winfrey to share on life in the Royal family.
The host continued to hit out at the pair on Tuesday's instalment of the morning show after the interview was aired on Monday evening in the UK.
Piers dismissed Meghan's account of her mental health battle, which led to him coming under fire from mental health charity Mind and belittled the couple alleging that a member of the royal family questioned how dark their baby son's skin would be before he was born.
During the show colleague, Alex Beresford condemned Piers Morgan for relentlessly targeting the Duchess of Sussex.
In unexpected scenes, Piers stormed off the set of the ITV news programme after Alex called his comments about Meghan "diabolical".
Later on, in the show, Piers returned to the set and told that he understood where Alex - whose mother is English and father Guyanese - was coming from but it has not stopped Alex from having to speak on the incident online.
Hours after the episode wrapped, Alex took to Twitter to explain that he hasn't got the "privilege to sit on the fence" and that he spoke out to defend Meghan as it is important to remind people - no matter their status - to not "pick apart claims of racism in order to make us to feel more comfortable."
He tweeted: "I wish I had the privilege to sit on the fence. In order for me to do that I would have to strip myself of my identity and that’s not something I can do.
"It’s not any of our places to pick apart claims of racism in order to make us to feel more comfortable."
Earlier today, on GMB, Alex shared on his own experiences of racism.
Alex said: "I've walked into institutions as the only person of colour and experienced covert and overt racism in so many occasions.
"Why the Meghan interview really resonates with me is because an ex-work colleague - not off this show - asked me if I was worried the shade of cocoa my son was going to come out.

"So I fully understand the hurt that is behind all of that.
"When you're mixed race what you find, in my personal experience, is that when you're a lighter shade of black, people gain confidence and think they can say things to do that they wouldn't say to a black person."
Later on, Tuesday evening, ITV announced that Piers would no longer be appearing on GMB.
ITV confirmed his sudden departure, revealing: "Following discussions with ITV, Piers Morgan has decided now is the time to leave Good Morning Britain.
"ITV has accepted this decision and has nothing further to add."
Piers himself took to Twitter just minutes before the statement was released by ITV, with nothing but an image of a clock.
