English journalist Piers Morgan went on an angry rant over Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s lawsuit against a newspaper. In a series of tweets on October 2, he attacked the royal couple asking them not to play the victim. He also said in reference to Prince Harry's statement that comparing Meghan to Princess Diana is nothing but a mistake. He said that though everyone has sympathy for him, Harry is not the only person who lost a parent. He wrote a column that expressed his views on the ongoing controversy featuring Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
His Twitter rant
Piers Morgan on his official Twitter account posted few tweets against the couple saying they should not play the victim. He said that he never read a more savage attack on the press than the one by Harry and Meghan. He also said that the Prince should "clamber off his hysterical hothead press-hating high horse and make peace with his wife's father, the man he never met in his life." In another tweet, he called the action by the royal couple a bad PR move while they enjoyed their best week in the press in the last few months. In another tweet, he said that the country has the best press in the world which is usually attacked by the ones who use it the most to advance themselves.
I've never read a more savage attack on the press than this one by Harry/Meghan.

Nor a more disingenuous one.
They've had the praise & criticism their behaviour has warranted.
They talk of bullying but this is their attempt to bully the press into fawning sycophancy.
We have the best press in the world, albeit imperfect like everything in life, but it’s usually most viciously attacked by those who have used it the the most to advance themselves... https://t.co/Ef7fQGztUg

*NEW: Harry & Meghan just had the best week of press they've had in months, and responded by going to war with the press.

This is an insanely bad PR move by a hypocritical couple that wants to have their cake & eat it too.

*NEW: Harry should clamber down off his hysterical hothead press-hating high horse & repair the REAL running sore causing Meghan's distress – by making peace with her father...the man he's still never met. https://t.co/Nz7jCUFEe3 pic.twitter.com/e2f4FdULoQ

Twitter reactions to his tweets
A user wrote to Morgan saying that the couple should have included him in the lawsuit since he is one of the biggest bullies. The user went on to say that he is a part of the reason why the two are doing this and hopes that they come for him and his colleagues. Another user wrote that Kate suffered a lot for years because of the harassment and criticism but she never complained about it to her husband William or blamed the country, public or press for it. A third user commented saying it is the racist bullying by the publication as it hates her. He further said that it started her family by taking advantage of their hillybilly ways or about her being of a mixed race.

They should have included your in the lawsuit since you have been one of the biggest bullies. You are part of the reason they are doing this and I hope they come for you, your colleagues and ITV next for aiding in this bullying

Kate had to suffer years of harrasment and criticism and never once whined to William or blamed the UK or the public. What a pair of weak narcissists

Racist bullying the Daily mail hates her and it’s all started with the abuse of her family by taking advantage of their hillybilly ways and then it’s simply down to her being mixed race ! They hate her the daily mail they hate she is mixed race and they hate that she is loved
