Piers Morgan raises a HUGE glass of wine ahead of final GMB show before summer break… and admits to being ‘knackered’ at 5.15am the following morning
Following Super Saturday, Brits all over the country were getting boozy due to lightened lockdown laws amid the coronavirus pandemic.
And Piers Morgan was joining in the fun on Tuesday evening as he took to Instagram to reveal in a tongue-in-cheek caption that he was enjoying ‘just the one glass of wine’ – in which he raised a huge vessel filled with booze.
The following morning, the journalist, 55, appeared to enjoy the evening immensely as he took to the microblogging site 11 hours later to share a behind-the-scenes snap from Good Morning Britain, ahead of their final show before summer break.
Cheers! Piers Morgan he took to Instagram on Tuesday to reveal in a tongue-in-cheek caption that he was enjoying ‘just the one glass of wine’ – in which he raised a huge vessel filled with booze
Piers could not resist sharing the hilarious snap, in which he raised a vast wine glass to the camera and penned his cheeky note alongside.
He penned: ‘BREAKING LOCKDOWN NEWS: I’m down to only one glass of wine a night!’, while one fan warned him to be careful ahead of the final show.
It seems he took heed of the warning as he was up bright and early posing alongside his co-host Susanna Reid, director Erron Gordon and producer Ben Briscoe.
Piers added a playful caption of the beaming selfie reading: ‘The final 5.15am GMB pre-show briefing in Imelda Reid’s dressing room, before we go off for our summer break. We’re all as knackered as we look.’

His ‘Imelda Reid’ note, appeared to be a swipe at the clothes in his co-star’s dressing room, as he teased her by referencing Filipino politician Imelda Marcos.
Marcos, who was First Lady of the Philippines for 21 years, was branded ‘Marie Antoinette, with shoes’ due to her love of shopping and excess.
It comes after Piers and Susanna locked horns as they discussed Amber Heard and Johnny Depp’s upcoming court battle on Tuesday’s Good Morning Britain.

The screen star, 57, and the actress, 34 – who were married from February 2015 until January 2017 – came face-to-face at London’s High Court later in the day as he takes libel action against The Sun for referring to him as a ‘wife beater’.
Ahead of their showdown, lead anchor Piers clashed with his co-host as he called the couple ‘spoilt brats’ and claimed their case is a ‘waste of everyone’s time’.
The presenter raged: ‘I assumed this pandemic might crunch a few celebrity heads together and would make them realise that this kind of thing is pointless but no, here we go. But no, a circus will erupt. Johnny hates Amber, Amber hates Johnny.’
