MONTECITO, CALIFORNIA: Piers Morgan has once again taken aim at Meghan Markle, this time slamming her new Netflix series, 'With Love, Meghan', as 'unwatchable.'

The outspoken TV host, known for his relentless criticism of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, made his opinions clear in an episode of 'Piers Morgan Uncensored'.

Piers Morgan brands Meghan Markle’s show a 'vanity project'



 

Having famously stormed off 'Good Morning Britain' in 2021 after a fiery discussion about Meghan Markle, Piers Morgan seems to have taken great pleasure in dismantling her latest project.

"I tried watching it, and after, honestly, about three, four minutes, I was done. It was just unwatchable. It's just the ultimate kind of vanity project, where it's all about people telling Meghan how great she is, her telling everyone how great she is," he declared.

Morgan also pointed out what he saw as the mundane nature of the show, criticizing its lack of substance.

"It's not even her house. She's doing things like making coffee, making a basic cake. There's nothing to actually learn here. And it's interesting to me that in Britain, they're incredibly unpopular, her and Harry. I mean the most unpopular Royals, which, when you think we have Prince Andrew, is pretty extraordinary to go under that bar," he stated.

Piers Morgan mocks Meghan Markle’s for wanting to be refereed to as ‘Sussex’

Piers Morgan went on to compare public opinion of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry in the US versus the UK.

"But in terms of Americans, I actually think most Americans that are saying, 'I'm not interested', but they're not even energised enough to be angry. They're just like, 'Who cares about these idiots?'"



 

Beyond critiquing her show, Morgan also took issue with Meghan’s recent preference for being referred to as "Sussex" instead of her maiden name, "Markle."

In a conversation with actress Mindy Kaling on Markle's cooking show, Markle corrected Kaling after she referred to her as Meghan Markle, saying, "It's so funny, too, that you keep saying Meghan Markle. You know I'm Sussex now."

Morgan seized the opportunity to mock this, pointing out that despite her title, Markle has spent little to no time in the county.

"I come from Sussex, in England. It's a county on the south coast. It has several million people living in it. I can tell you with some certainty, if you went round and chose 100,000 people from villages and towns in Sussex, have you ever seen Meghan Markle here in the county?" he asked.

He continued, "You would not find a single person that has ever seen her there. It is reputed she has spent under six hours in the county in her entire lifetime. I was educated there, I have a home there, I grew up there. I spent more time there this week than she has in her lifetime. And also, she's not a Sussex.

"She's a Windsor. You marry into the Windsor family. They were given this title for 'Duke and Duchess of Sussex' by Her Majesty the Queen, the late great Queen." he observed,
