Piers Morgan walked out of his own show, after his wife's name was brought up during an interaction with Harrison Sullivan. Read on to know one of the interesting anecdotes about their marriage.
Piers Morgan again showed the world that he knows how to draw a fine line between disrespect on his show. Recently, the British host walked out of his own show, Piers Morgan Uncensored, after a heated altercation with a social media influencer, Harrison Sullivan. He intentionally brought his wife, Celia Walden's old poolside picture, to offend the 60-year-old.
As the moment has been going viral online and the discussion around Piers and Celia's marriage is rife, we stumbled upon an old interview with his wife. In 2021, when Piers left his job, she begged TV bosses to give him a job so that he would stop staring at her in bed.
After Piers Morgan's controversial exit from his show, Good Morning Britain, in 2021, his wife, Celia Walden, pleaded with the TV bosses to give him a job. For the unversed, Piers left the ITV breakfast show in March 2021 after he denied believing Meghan Markle's statements on Oprah. People wanted him to apologise, but he chose to quit rather than back down from his words.
During an interview with Sun, Celia joked that her husband, Piers' availability at home at all times has disrupted her schedule. She stated that he used to burn his energy earlier due to his interviews and live TV sessions. But Celia was upset that he had all his energy back. She was quoted as saying:
"Being married to Piers is basically one very long eye roll. But what people don’t realise about Piers is that he’s usually very quiet at home because he’s exhausted himself on whatever interview he’s been doing."
Celia talked about her husband's sudden availability. She asked TV bosses to give him a job. She revealed that during his time on GMB, Morgan would come home exhausted due to the intense debate and didn't bother anyone. After he left his job, he kept staring at her in bed day after day. She said:
"Unfortunately, he’s got all his energy back now. Please, someone, just give him a job! This is the only reason I am sad about him leaving GMB — well, that and the fact I wake up and there he is, staring back at me morning after morning. But really, he used to come back and by 9am was absolutely flattened, lying there on the sofa, catatonic, not bothering anyone."
For the unversed, Celia Walden is also a British journalist, just like her husband, Piers Morgan. She is also an author and columnist and has left a mark in the media with her work. Talking about her early life, she is the daughter of George Walden, who was a former Conservative MP, and Sarah Walden, an art historian. Celia studied at the Westminster School, and she further completed her studies at Newnham College in Cambridge. After which, she began her career in Journalism.
Celia and Piers first met each other in 2006 in a professional setup. At that time, Piers was married to his first wife. However, it was Piers who was adamant on pursuing Celia, and he did all to woo her, while he wasn't the idle man as per Celia. But Piers' constant effort made Celia fall in love, and after dating for years, they got married in June 2010. Celia and Piers welcomed their first child, a daughter, Elise, in 2011. It is worth mentioning that Piers Morgan also has three sons from his previous marriage.
