Piers Morgan brands Meghan Markle an ‘absolute disgrace’ saying she called the Queen a liar in her Oprah ‘whineathon’
PIERS Morgan has branded Meghan Markle an “absolute disgrace” – claming she called The Queen a liar.
It came as the 39-year-old accused the Royal family of “perpetuating falsehoods” in a new clip from her bombshell Oprah Winfrey interview.

In a teaser preview, Oprah asked how Meghan felt about “the Palace hearing you speak your truth”.
She replied: “I don’t know how they could expect that after all of this time we would still just be silent if there is an active role that The Firm is playing in perpetuating falsehoods about us.”
Tweeting today, Piers insisted her reference to ‘The Firm’ in her “whine-athon” interview was a pointed remark aimed at the Queen and Prince Philip.
He wrote: “Let’s be very clear: the new clip from Oprah’s whine-athon with the Sussexes shows Meghan Markle directly calling the Queen & Prince Philip liars.
“They are the heads of ‘The Firm’. And she’s done this as Philip lies seriously ill in hospital. It’s an absolute disgrace.”
Piers, one of Meghan’s fiercest critics, has branded she and Harry’s interviews as their “endless victimhood tour”.
He tweeted this morning: “Ms Markle thinks she’s in a movie. This interview is going to be Oscar-winning deluded self-serving bilge.”
His diatribe comes hours after a new teaser trailer for the Oprah interview – which is set to be aired at 9pm on Monday on ITV – was released.

Piers also spoke about about Harry and Meghan following claims that the Duchess of Sussex allegedly bullied staff during her time at Kensington Palace.
A source told The Times she drove two personal assistants out of the household and undermined the confidence of a third.
Meghan strongly denies the allegations.
