Piers Morgan news: TV bosses in ‘£10m bidding war’ for former GMB host as Piers’ book tops Amazon bestseller chart

PIERS Morgan’s book has toppled the Amazon bestseller charts – as telly execs engage in a ‘£10M bidding war’ for the former GMB host.

He posted a picture of his book “Wake Up: Why the world has gone nuts” – which is now No.1 – knocking off Charlie Mackesy’s “The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse”.

The 55-year-old, who dramatically quit Good Morning Britain rather than apologise for his remarks about Meghan Markle, is highly sought-after by TV bosses on both sides of the Atlantic.

He has been publicly courted by both start-up news service GB News and Fox News in America.

Another 300,000 viewers switched off after Piers quit after refusing to publicly apologise for making a widely criticised statement that he didn’t believe a word Meghan said during her controversial interview with Oprah Winfrey.

Three petitions on Change.org calling for Morgan to return to GMB have since garnered a combined total of nearly 250,000 signatures by late Sunday night. They are available to view here, here and here.
