"Back to my immeasurably better-looking wife"— Piers Morgan and James Barr involved in spat after comedian said Meghan Markle rejected the former

On the June 10 episode of Piers Morgan Uncensored, the host, Piers Morgan, was joined by Kinsey Schofield, Ava Santina, and comedian James Barr. The panel discussed Meghan Markle's recent controversial video in which she is seen dancing with a pregnant belly alongside Prince Harry. In the Instagram post caption uploaded on June 4, the Duchess of Sussex explained she recorded this video while in labor with Princess Lilibet in 2020.

During their discussion, the host of Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered drew a comparison between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Prince William and Princess Catherine Middleton, noting that Markle receives a higher number of views than the Prince and Princess of Wales. She argued that this is mainly because Meghan's content is based on clickbait, and she focuses on "generating her own headlines."

Reflecting on Kinsey's comments, Piers shared that he knew Markle before she married Prince Harry, but she cut ties with him and everyone after her marriage. As Piers was about to add more to his point, he was interrupted by James Barr, causing a heated exchange.

"This is my problem with it, as always with these two, bear in mind just to remind people, because I did know her a little bit before she met Harry, and then she obviously ghosted everybody," Piers said.

Interrupting Morgan, James said,

"She rejected you, right?"

Morgan appeared a bit agitated by James's remarks and responded,

"Well, what of course she rejected me, yeah yeah, whatever, it doesn't matter."

James pushed back.

"Well, it kind of does matter, doesn't it?"

Morgan further pressed James, questioning why he asked him if Meghan Markle rejected him, and sarcastically added,

"She asked for a drink in my local pub, I met her for an hour and a half, and then went back to my immeasurably better-looking wife."

Piers Morgan criticized James for asking this "utterly ridiculous" question, adding that people like him "promote these scurrilous rumors."

Piers Morgan calls out Meghan Markle and Prince Harry for hypocrisy

Further in their discussion, Piers Morgan expressed strong frustration about the ongoing attacks and diminishing reputation of the royal family.

"I'm angry at their [Prince Harry and Meghan Markle] hypocrisy. I'm very angry about the ongoing attacks and diminishing of the reputation of the royal family and the monarchy."

He shared that he finds it frustrating to see Meghan and Harry exploit their royal titles for personal gain.

"I believe in the monarchy, and I love the royal family, and anyone that sets out to systematically destroy that brand as they've done, and simultaneously make millions from fleecing their royal titles, I find that anger-making," Morgan remarked.

Morgan expressed that he, along with the media and the audience, was supportive of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's marriage. However, after a while, they began doing "hypocritical" things, for instance, travelling on a private jet while preaching about carbon footprint or tweeting about poverty and spending millions on their daughter's birthday.

Piers Morgan added that because of these acts of hypocrisy, the couple got criticized by the media, which they didn't handle well, and left the country for privacy reasons.

"And yet at the same time, here they are at Disneyland putting pictures up of their kids all over social media for millions of people to look at again. I simply say, James, it's the hypocrisy, it's nothing else, people don't like the double standard," Morgan said.
