Dancing On Ice hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield poked fun at Piers Morgan last night and now the presenter has hit back.
On Monday’s Good Morning Britain, Piers joked a positive of the COVID-19 crisis is he doesn’t have to see Holly and Phil beat him at awards.
Piers told his co-star Susanna Reid: “You know the one good thing about all of this?
What did Piers Morgan say?
“I haven’t had to put up with Holly [Willoughby] and Phil [Schofield] winning endless awards and having to pretend I’m all part of their one big happy ITV family.”

Susanna said: “I think they have been winning, they have been winning virtually.”
Piers continued: “Yes but nobody notices, nobody cares.
“They don’t get their moment on telly. Those little puppy dog eyes that Holly pulls.”
Doing an impression of Holly, Piers said: “‘Hello, it’s not the winning it’s the taking part,’ says the people who win everything.”
Susanna added: “Not that we are bitter in the slightest.”
It came after Holly and Phil poked fun at Piers on Sunday night’s Dancing On Ice.
