“I think it’s best I don’t do your show because of the irresistible temptation I would have to point out that you’re dying to be b**** deep in Meghan Markle so bad it’s driven you crazy, and that your dislike for Prince Harry is down to his being b**** deep in her ten times a day. It being the case that if you were ever to get near her, which would never happen, you’d last ten seconds: and that would be that for ten days.” The outlet pointed out that “numerous reputable media outlets reported it was indeed an account managed by O’Conner herself.”

Here’s what I emailed him in response: Hopefully you’ll chortle your tea out your nose.”

Morgan’s tweet to Sinead showed off his sense of humor: “a delight to hear from you and I did indeed chortle my tea out of my nose.
