Oh Piers Morgan... you just can't resist can you?!

The pair were celebrating their fifth anniversary of hosting Good Morning Britain, when Piers made the remarks.

A throwback image of Susanna, 49, was shown on screen, and it didn’t take long for Piers to accuse her of getting “surgery”.

“See, that’s your cheesy TV smile isn’t it. The old rictus grin that you get when you’ve worked in TV for too long.

“Is that the [smile] you try and convince people that you’re really lovely people, lovely smiley, happy people?” he asked.
