Piers Morgan storms off set ahead of Thomas Markle tell-all
Updated | By Stacey and JSbu
Thomas Markle is ready to tell his side of the story...
Listen to what Stacey and J Sbu had to say about Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's media attacks:
Meghan Markle sat down with Oprah for an interview which was aired on Sunday to discuss her life since marrying Prince Harry and joining the royal family in 2018. She also touched on her strained relationship with her father, Thomas.

In one of the most anticipated interviews of all time, Meghan let everything out - she even spoke about a time in which Thomas, her father – who has already admitted to staging paparazzi photos ahead of her royal wedding and leaking a personal letter from his daughter, lied to her about a story he was behind.
We called my dad, and we asked him, and he said, ‘No, absolutely not.’ I said, ‘I just need you to tell me, if you tell me the truth, we can help.’ And he wasn’t able to do that, and that for me has really resonated, especially now as a mother.- Meghan Markle
Now Thomas is set to appear on UK show ‘Good Morning Britain’ to give his side of the story.
The show’s co-host, Piers Morgan, confirmed the news in a tweet.
UPDATE: Meghan Markle trashed her dad on US TV today. On tomorrow's @GMB, Thomas Markle will give his first exclusive interview in response. (sic)- Piers Morgan
Now you’re all watching.. next on @GMB, the first live world exclusive interview with Meghan Markle’s father Thomas reacting to the Oprah interview.

The former ‘Suits’ star also addressed her relationship with her half-sister, Samantha Markle, who has criticised her several times and even written a tell-all book about her.
How hectic?! This family does not rest.
But Meghan has apparently insisted that she has no relationship with Samantha, and said she didn't feel "comfortable" speaking about her sibling as she doesn't particularly know her.
I think it would be very hard to tell all when you don't know me. This is a very different situation than my dad, right. When you talk about betrayal, betrayal comes from someone that you have a relationship with. I don't feel comfortable talking about people that I really don't know.- Meghan Markle
The drama she seems to be unfolding bit by bit because news just came in that the same Morgan to do the interview with Thomas stormed off the 'Good Morning Britain' set live on air today.
This is after he was accused by the show's weatherman of unfairly 'trashing' Markle.
Susanna Reid was apparently forced to send the ITV show to an early advertisement break after the row between her co-host and Alex Beresford boiled over this morning.
Piers and Alex were discussing about the Sussexes' bombshell interview with Oprah, where the couple accused the Royal Family of racism.
Watch the video to see the drama unfold:
During the heated debate, Alex decided to accuse Morgan of 'diabolical behaviour'.
He even went as far as to talk about Piers' claims that Meghan 'dropped him' as a friend.
I understand that you don't like Meghan Markle, you've made it so clear a number of times on this programme. She's entitled to cut you off. Has she said anything about you since she cut you off? I don't think she has. But you continue to trash her- Alex Beresford
This clearly way too much for Piers because he then stood up and walked off set, saying:
Ok, I'm done with this. Sorry. You can trash me mate but not on my own show. See you later- Piers Morgan
Guess we'll have to wait and see what the interview with Meghan's father, Thomas, brings.
