Piers Morgan returns to breakfast TV as viewers divided: âYouâre not having a fever dreamâ
Some people were unimpressedâŠ
Piers Morgan has made his return to breakfast TV on BBC Breakfast but plenty of viewers have been left divided.
The presenter was a regular on morning telly when he presented Good Morning Britain alongside Susanna Reid from 2025 to 2021. He ended up quitting though, after he stormed off following a heated exchange about Meghan Markle.
However, four years later and Piers Morgan has made his comeback to breakfast TV.

On Monday (October 20), Piers appeared on BBCâs Breakfast and chatted to hosts Sally Nugent and Ben Thompson about his new book, Woke Is Dead.
At the start of his interview, Piers temporarily stepped in to host Benâs seat on the famous red sofa. Appearing alongside Sally, Piers addressed the viewers: âGood Morning Britain, itâs been a while.â
Ben then walked on the set and said: âWhoah whoah whoah.â Piers put his hand up to Ben and told him: âDonât worry Ben, Iâve got this, they wanted somebody a little bit younger, a little bit more handsome.â

Sally then said: âDonât worry everyone, youâre not having a fever dream,â before adding: âDonât get too comfortable.â
When asked if he misses the early morning starts, Piers replied: âIt was funny, I thought this morning, breakfast TV again. I did it for five years, I spent five years â I have to be honest â trying to destroy you two and your colleagues. Finally beat you in the ratings, but only because I left!â
Following Piersâ BBC Breakfast appearance, itâs fair to say viewers were left divided. On X, one person said: âBBC Breakfast has hit a new low by having him on the sofa!!â
I donât need to see him again.
Another added: âThank god we rarely see Piers Morgan on TV these days, note to #bbcbreakfast I donât need to see him again.â
A third chimed in: âPiers, Iâm fed up now. Go away.â Someone else wrote: âHow long is this buffoon going to be on my screen?? Insufferable.â A fifth penned: âI knew there was a good reason why I donât watch breakfast TV.â
However, not all reactions were negative. Some viewers welcomed the presenter, with one person writing: âSo happy to see Piers Morgan on BBC Breakfast.â
Another agreed: âI loved watching this it was very fun best bit of @BBCBreakfast I have seen for a while.â Someone else penned: âI must be the only one that doesnât mind Piers Morgan.â
