Nothing brings me more joy than Piers Morgan, the world's biggest simp for the Queen, getting a taste of his own medicine.

Following Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s tell-all interview with Oprah, some less-than-ideal comments from right-wing nuts and Queen simps were always to be expected — but boy oh boy, did conservatives deliver.

The moment the interview ended, notable right-wing trolls from across the globe self-combusted over just how ~disrespectful~ the whole affair was.

From insisting that the timing of Oprah with Meghan and Harry was “appalling” given Prince Philip’s current health condition to claiming that Meghan’s “suicide threats” actually make Harry the victim in all of this, right-wing pundits haven’t stopped spitting terrible opinions all day.

“Isolating an individual away from their family and friends, using suicide threats to get what you want — these are CLASSIC signs of an emotionally abusive relationship,” tweeted right-wing poster child, Candace Owens.

Ben Shapiro, #1 WAP hater, also got involved by pointing out how terrible it was that Prince Philip’s “spoiled grandson” called out the institution that Philip had “silently devoted” his life to, as if the complaints that Harry and Meghan had weren’t valid because Philip… had helped fight the Nazis.

But while conservatives have had some truly terrible takes in the last 24 hours, none have been worse than those from giant piss-baby Piers Morgan, who absolutely flooded Twitter with horrific takes.

Describing the interview as a “nauseating two-hour Oprah whine-athon“, Morgan called the TV special “cynical race-baiting propaganda designed to damage the Queen as her husband lies in hospital”.

The world’s biggest simp for the Queen also tried to claim that people saying “shut the fuck up, white man” in response to his very bad tweets, was actually “racist bullying” done to try and “silence” him, a white man, on his Twitter account with 7.7 million followers.

Despite feeling “silenced”, Morgan managed to leave Twitter for a few hours to continue to bash Meghan Markle on Good Morning Britain, the breakfast show he co-hosts.

Inviting Black women’s rights activist Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu to chat about the interview, Morgan instantly regret his decision once she absolutely tore into him.

While chatting about the racism that Meghan faced in the British tabloids, Mos-Shogbamimu questioned how a grandmother, who is meant to be close with her grandson, could “not use her power and influence as Queen” to protect Harry and Meghan from the racist media coverage.

Without taking a breath, Mos-Shogbamimu then set her sights on Morgan to ask how he couldn’t see the clear racism at play, especially as during the Oprah interview Meghan Markle shared that there had been private discussions with Harry concerning how “dark” Archie may come out.

“And then you sit there, hammering on about how the royal institution is not racist…are you out of your god forsaken mind?,” she asked.

Morgan, the Queen’s biggest fanboy, then tried to defend Her Majesty by calling Mos-Shogbamimu’s comments to be “actually disgraceful”, which only made the activist dig in deeper as he kept trying to cut her off.

“Listen, you might learn something. The royal family is an institution rooted in colonialism, white supremacy and racism. The legacy is right there. So you’re now surprised that a comment would have been made by several members of the royal family about how dark Archie’s skin is?”

“Let me finish,” Mos-Shagbamimu said, as Morgan again tried to interject. “You’re more outraged that Harry and Meghan had the audacity to speak their truth than… at the actual outrage of racism.”

After finally getting a word in, Morgan just reiterated that he found any criticism of the Queen to be “disgusting” and “unbelievable”, to which Mos-Shogbamimu just responded: “You are disgusting”.

What a beautiful sight to see.
