Piers Morgan is upset after being questioned about his involvement in the phone hacking scandal.
During a recent appearance on BBC's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, Piers Morgan found himself becoming increasingly agitated as the journalist pressed him on his involvement in the phone hacking scandal during his time as a newspaper editor. Viewers of the politics show noticed Morgan's frustration as Kuenssberg asked him about potentially listening to voicemails without consent.

Despite Kuenssberg's inquiries, Morgan denied any knowledge of phone hacking and insisted that there was no evidence linking him to the scandal that rocked the Mirror Group Newspapers. He had served as the editor of the Daily Mirror from 1995 to 2004. However, last year a High Court judge concluded that the practice of phone hacking was widespread at MGN publications during that time period.

On the show, Kuenssberg directly asked Morgan if he had any knowledge of phone hacking at the paper. Morgan maintained his stance and reiterated that there was no evidence to support such accusations. He also expressed his frustration with being constantly asked the same questions regarding the scandal. When Kuenssberg referenced the High Court case where evidence was presented implicating Morgan, he dismissed it and stood by his claim of innocence.

Despite Kuenssberg's persistence, Morgan stuck to his story and denied any involvement in phone hacking. However, viewers couldn't help but notice his agitation, with some even joking that he may storm out of the studio again, referencing his recent outburst on Good Morning Britain when he was confronted about his criticism of Meghan and Prince Harry's interview with Oprah Winfrey.

After the interview, social media was abuzz with comments about Morgan's reaction, with some users even making light of the situation. Despite the tense atmosphere during the interview, Kuenssberg remained professional and continued to probe Morgan about his knowledge of phone hacking.

It seems that the phone hacking scandal will continue to be a topic of discussion for Morgan, as he has faced these questions for the past 20 years. But for now, he stands by his claim of innocence and maintains that there is no evidence linking him to the scandal. Good Morning Britain airs weekdays on ITV, and if you have a celebrity story, video, or photos, you can always reach out to the entertainment team at The Agency.
