Piers Morgan is recuperating in a hospital after a recent fall necessitated hip surgery.
The host of the YouTube talk show Piers Morgan Uncensored says in a social media post today that he might be conducting the interview show from his London home for a bit.
The 60-year-old Morgan shared news of his fall and subsequent surgery in a social media post yesterday. Accompanying a “thumbs up photo” of himself in a hospital bed, Morgan wrote that he recently tripped on a small step inside a London hotel restaurant. “Fell like a sack of spuds,” he wrote.
The fall resulted in a fractured femur, the break necessitating “a new hip,” he said. Currently recovering in a hospital, Morgan wrote that he’ll be on crutches for six weeks, with “no long-haul flying” for 12 weeks. “New Year off to a cracking start!,” Morgan wrote, jokingly adding, “I blame Donald Trump.”

Today, Morgan responded to some Good Morning Britain banter in which the show’s presenters jokingly suggested Morgan might have tripped after imbibing. On X, Morgan posted a laughing emoji alongside the message, “To clarify, ZERO alcohol was involved in the incident.”
He also responded to a Metro UK report that suggested Morgan will recover in his “lavish London home with £18,000 ‘man cave’… “
Morgan responded, “I don’t think I’ll be ‘recovering’ in the man cave… but I might be able to host @PiersUncensored from there for a bit. Working on that now.”
Before the YouTube series, Morgan hosted CNN’s Piers Morgan Live and judged on America’s Got Talent.
