Late-night television host Stephen Colbert delivered a blistering takedown of Piers Morgan during a recent episode of The Late Show, targeting the British broadcaster's controversial remarks about Meghan Markle.
The Royal Rift Reignites
Colbert seized on Morgan's repeated criticism of the Duchess of Sussex, weaving the material into a biting comedy segment that left audiences roaring with laughter. The American host particularly highlighted Morgan's dramatic exit from Good Morning Britain following his refusal to apologise for doubting Markle's mental health claims.
A Masterclass in Satire
With impeccable timing, Colbert recreated Morgan's infamous storm-off moment, exaggerating the presenter's indignation for comic effect. "Nothing says 'I definitely don't care about Meghan Markle' like quitting your job because people asked you to be nice about her," Colbert deadpanned to uproarious applause.
The Transatlantic Feud Continues
The segment marks the latest chapter in the ongoing war of words between US and UK television personalities regarding the Sussexes. Colbert, known for his liberal leanings, has frequently defended Markle against her British media critics.
Meanwhile, Morgan continues to position himself as the chief antagonist to the California-based royals, ensuring this media feud shows no signs of abating anytime soon.
