OHMYGOSSIP — Piers Morgan is quitting ‘Life Stories’, and Kate Garraway will replace him.
The 56-year-old TV presenter will interview his friend and former ‘Good Morning Britain’ colleague Kate in his last-ever episode of the show, and she will then present the final three episodes of the series.
He wrote on Twitter: “I’m quitting Life Stories after 12 years and 100 shows. My final one will be with my fabulous friend @kategarraway and she will then present the remaining 3 planned shows of the next series as I leave ITV to host my new global daily show. It’s been a blast!”
ITV have thanked Piers for his time on the programme, and they are looking forward to “inquisitive interviewer” Kate taking over for three episodes.
An ITV spokesperson said: “Piers and ITV have agreed that his interview with Kate Garraway for ‘Piers Morgan’s Life Stories’ will be his last; and that Kate will take over the baton on his behalf for the remaining three episodes of the forthcoming series.
“We would like to thank Piers for over a hundred engaging, compelling and insightful ‘Life Stories’ over the past 12 years where his interviewees have included the very best names in showbiz, business and politics.
“We wish him the very best of luck with all of his future ventures.
“Kate is a brilliant journalist and an inquisitive interviewer and we look forward to her forthcoming three shows.”
Last month, Piers confirmed he will be joining News Corp’s new channel talkTV in early 2022.
He will front a new, global TV show, which will air weeknights in the UK, on FOX Nation for US audiences, and on Sky News Australia.
He said at the time: “I want my global show to be a fearless forum for lively debate and agenda-setting interviews, and a place that celebrates the right of everyone to have an opinion, and for those opinions to be vigorously examined and challenged.”
