To think Piers Morgan is a pompous bully?

This is about his shouty, nasty attack (today on Good Morning Britain) on the mother who sent her friend an invoice for her child's scuffed designer shoes.

I might not agree with the lady's actions, but for Morgan to shout at her and call her "the worst kind of mother" and reduce her to tears is reprehensible.

He's poisonous.

I loathe him - but she doesn't seem much better.

That dress - eeew! What sort of person sends their pubic hair to a stranger? (And what sort of person asks for pubic hair?)

I think Piers was right. Maybe he shouldn't of raised his voice, but, this fame hungry woman was nothing other than full of herself to begin with. Then she'd rattled on about a child coming home covered in scratches on their body? Which she tried (and FAILED in spectacular form) to attribute it to be the SAME as scuffed (hideous wellie like) £325 boots.

She used her 3 YO child for your own gain.

I feel deeply sorry for the child, imagine being so afraid of an OTT reaction because your shoes are scuffed? Being dressed up like a doll. Not being seen as a child, but, merely a fashion accessory...

He's a wanker but so is she. To be honest I think sending an invoice to another parent like that is tantamount to bullying.

Kirriemuir · 10/01/2017 20:09

She was just as bad. She's vile and attention seeking. I feel so sorry for her child. She brought this all on herself and frankly piers only said what we were thinking. Just he didn't do it in a very professional manner.

BitchQueen90 · 10/01/2017 20:11

I didn't like the woman, I thought she was ridiculous.

However, I still think Piers Morgan is an arrogant rude c*nt. He spouts absolute rubbish on the daily.

FairNotFair · 10/01/2017 20:11

He's an unutterable twat, and she's ghastly.

honeylulu · 10/01/2017 20:11

Piers Morgan once had a fight with Jeremy Clarkson. It's hard to decide which of them I hoped had received more punches

Fallonjamie · 10/01/2017 20:12

People who want to put themselves in the spotlight - particularly around nonsense issues like this know they're taking a risk.

Aeroflotgirl · 10/01/2017 20:23

I am afraid she puts herself in the media spotlight, behave in a twattish way, this is what you get!

HappyFlappy · 10/01/2017 20:27

Wish I'd seen that Honey Grin

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 10/01/2017 20:53

Yes the mother is an idiot, but. Its not his place to scream and shout at her to the point of reducing her to tears. The horrible cunt. I think Baby Peter's mum probably takes the prize for the worse type of mother.!!!!!
I remember years ago when he was on AGT and basically slating every act and person he saw. Sharon Osbourn walked off in the end, because of his stinking attitude.

mylittlephoney · 10/01/2017 23:25

PM is a bully and shouldn't be on tv. He is arrogant and rude. However. I don't see what his education had to do with it. Rude people can have university educations too.
But.... wow. The mother. What a designer whore. These are not dolls. They are living breathing children. They get messy and have fun. If your going to dress them like fashion plates ( yes I did just hear myself say that ) then you need mannequins not real people. More fool you for spending so much on boots. I hope she turnes into an emo goth at 13.

Isyss · 10/01/2017 23:48

He is one of those people you cannot let get to you because they get a sense of power from getting to you, people like him i see through and laugh at

HelenaDove · 10/01/2017 23:55

spider on BGT years ago he had a go at a group of women singers for being middle aged and overweight.

Hes a bellend.

kimann · 10/01/2017 23:56

i dont think he was that bad to be fair - he was just being Piers. She was terrible!

PointlessUsername · 10/01/2017 23:59

She is an attention seeker for sure. That said he was overly loud and aggressive.

Made uncomftable viewing.

ILoveAntButHateDec · 11/01/2017 00:04

I loathe Piers Morgan but in this instance I think he said the words on everyone's lips.

TheFairyCaravan · 11/01/2017 00:08

I don't like Piers Morgan but he was completely right this morning.

That woman started off on the defensive. She was being really gobby so it was no wonder he raised his voice. Had someone like Sussanah or Lorraine been interviewing her she'd have carried on being the defensive, mouthy cow she started off with.

She cried because she lost the argument and realised what a dick she'd been. She wasn't bullied at all. Hopefullly she's gone home and is reflecting on her actions. I doubt she is, though, my money's on her being in the Scum tomorrow taking about how all the nasty people on Sociial media are being so very cruel to her and Piers Morgan is the nastiest man in the whole wide world.

Miserylovescompany2 · 11/01/2017 06:57

Her next instalment of attention seeking will be how depressed she is after the this morning interview and what a brilliant mother she is...

She'll go for the sympathy vote!

I watched the interview, she's very manipulative. What do manipulater's tend to do when things don't go their way? They twist, twist some more and when all else fails cry. I just can't believe she thinks pysical harm to a child and scuff marks on a boot are the same thing??? Beggars belief really!

By the OTT reaction, you'd think she cared more about an inanimate object than her own child? She obviously has no regard for her friends either...

It wouldn't surprise me if the whole thing was made up! She seems to go to extraordinary lengths to gain publicity???? I'm surprised she wasn't wearing her GIANT merkin (dress) on the TM interveiw!

Scooby20 · 11/01/2017 07:06

He is a dick and so is she.

Dressing up as an abuse victim? Lovely.

I actually know her. This is all for attention. No thought for her dd.

TheNaze73 · 11/01/2017 07:54

I'm not a fan of his, by any stretch however, she was the more odious of the two on this occasion
