Piers Morgan's son Spencer blasted his dad's haters a 'cancer on society' on Wednesday morning.
Attacking those who were revelling in Piers shock decision to step down as a host of ITV's Good Morning Britain, the 27-year-old made his feelings abundantly clear.
Spencer wrote: "This desperation to paint people as racist who clearly aren’t makes a mockery of the issue.
"These people thrive off racial division. They are a cancer on society."
Spencer tuned into watch the first GMB without his dad, sharing a picture of Piers' former co-host Susannah Reid.
He wrote: "Respect @susannareid100. RIP morning dream team."
His words came hours after ITV released a bombshell statement revealing the move. Piers was replaced for Wednesday's show by Strictly Come Dancing star Ranvir Singh, GMB's political editor.
Spencer shared a series of tweets attacking the anti-Morgan camp, after Ofcom received more than 41,000 complaints about Piers comments about Meghan Markle on Tuesday's show.
Wrote Spencer: "What you all actually mean is #bekind to people you like isn’t it. Fake a** dreamers. I see you."
He returned again to this theme later, writing: "Just a reminder that abusing one person in supposed defence of another person’s mental health is about as absurd as it gets."
Spencer fully supported his dad, after Piers clashed with GMB weatherman Alex Beresford and said he "didn't believe" Meghan's comments on her tell-all Oprah interview.
Said Spencer: "This fake battle for moral superiority will soon end. They’re all just interested in boosting their own profile / relevance.
"Only direct thoughts on these: Harry/meg: stunning PR job, well played Alex weatherman: always got on with him, can’t hate on a guy for taking such an easy chance to boost his career.
"The concept of debate: RIP."
He also congratulated his father on his GMB viewing figures, adding: "Mad this morning’s @gmb was a significantly bigger tv event than the ‘big’ interview."
ITV announced Piers's resignation on Tuesday evening, saying simply: "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."
