Susanna Reid has provided an update on the condition of her former colleague from Good Morning Britain, Piers Morgan, after he was urgently hospitalized. The Uncensored host, aged 60, revealed that he underwent surgery and a hip replacement following an accident in London.
Sharing a photo from his hospital bed, Piers humorously remarked that his New Year had started with a bang due to the incident. He detailed his mishap, stating he tripped, suffered a fractured femur, and required a new hip, leading to a recovery period involving crutches and travel restrictions.
Receiving an outpouring of support, Piers was wished well by Susanna during the recent episode of Good Morning Britain, where she mentioned the unfortunate incident and his positive recovery progress. She humorously noted his refusal of grapes due to an abundance and concluded with warm wishes for his speedy recuperation.
Piers, known for his role on Good Morning Britain alongside Susanna, left the show in 2021 after controversial remarks about Meghan Markle. Reflecting on his time on the program in a previous interview, he candidly expressed his struggles with the early morning schedule and the toll it took on his well-being.
Despite the challenges, Piers acknowledged the camaraderie with his former colleagues and the enjoyable moments shared on the show. As he continues his recovery journey, well-wishes and hopes for a swift return to health have been extended to him. Good Morning Britain airs on ITV1 and ITVX, offering viewers a weekday morning show experience.
