Piers Morgan's fascination with Meghan Markle reportedly began after she "ghosted" him following an initial friendly interaction. The 58-year-old TalkTV host claimed that he and the Duchess of Sussex got along well during their early interactions, even going for drinks together. However, after that evening, Meghan Markle reportedly stopped communicating with him.
In a video rediscovered in 2018, Piers Morgan shared the story of their meeting, stating that they connected on Twitter, had a friendly chat, and even went out for drinks. The turning point came when Meghan went to a party where she met Prince Harry. Subsequently, Morgan claimed he was "ghosted" by the Duchess.
Piers Morgan described the experience as hurtful and labeled Meghan Markle a "slight social climber." He expressed his confusion over the sudden silence, mentioning that another Suits star he had been in touch with also stopped communicating with him after the royal wedding.
This alleged "ghosting" incident is cited as the beginning of Piers Morgan's public criticism and scrutiny of Meghan Markle.
