Piers Morgan has praised Prince William and his wife Kate for stepping up to fill the gap left by Meghan and Harry in the wake of Megxit.
Morgan appeared on The Talk on Tuesday where he told the panel the Duchess of Cambridge’s appearance on a podcast to discuss her morning sickness was a sign of the royal couple ‘stepping up’.

He added: ‘What’s interesting about this is Kate Middleton doesn’t normally do podcasts or interviews.
‘So what you’re seeing is Meghan and Harry quit Britain, quit the Royals, they don’t want to do it anymore, they want to go and speak to banks and be celebrities. That’s fine. But they’ve got leave the work, the duty, now for the other royals.
‘So in stepped William and Kate. And I think they’ve really stepped up. ‘
