OHMYGOSSIP — Piers Morgan claims he has been asked to return to ‘Good Morning Britain’.
The 56-year-old presenter quit the ITV show earlier this year after being asked to apologise for claiming Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, lied about feeling suicidal when she was pregnant but Piers says a “third-party” has reached out to him about a possible return.
He told The Sun newspaper: “I have had some quite random third-party feelers put out to see if I would consider a return to the show.
“I don’t want to say on the record who, but a pretty close third-party . . .
“As the Americans say, they reached out — there have been approaches to test the water in the wake of their obvious ratings issues.
“It makes me sad to see all the hard work we did to beat the BBC in viewing numbers evaporate so fast.
‘It’s their problem to work out . . . but never say never.”
However, Piers insisted he would want more creative control if he returned to the show.
He said: “I would seriously consider (going back) if I could rip it all up, and do it my way. If I could produce it as well as present.
“I always felt slightly hamstrung there; they never let me have the team I wanted to have.
“When it comes to work, I’m quite tough and ruthless. I always wanted the best people around me, yet felt there was a little too much reliance on me to do my thing all the time.
“‘There are some very good people at ‘GMB’, including obviously Susanna Reid, but they should have some other people come in to really give the show some rocket fuel.”
And Piers insisted weatherman Alex Beresford, who he famously clashed with on his last day, would not be part of his new team.
He said: “Well, a certain weatherman definitely wouldn’t be around…”
