WATCH: Piers Morgan Reveals First Interview On His New Show Will Be With Donald Trump

Piers Morgan has revealed the first interview on his new show will be with former US president Donald Trump.

The 57-year-old TV presenter has posted a dramatic video trailer for his conversation with Mr Trump, which will air with the launch of his show, Piers Morgan Uncensored, next week.

The 30-second advert shows the two clash over Mr Trump’s claims that the last US election was rigged, and appears to show him storming off camera following what is promised to be “the most explosive interview of the year”.

Morgan’s 75-minute interview will be screened via TalkTV on Monday at 8pm.

Last year he made headlines after leaving the ITV breakfast show following an on-air clash with weather presenter Alex Beresford over the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s interview with Oprah Winfrey.

Piers Morgan jokingly stormed off the set of Lorraine yesterday (April 21) after making his return to ITV a year after his Good Morning Britain departure.

He arrived to the sound of Eminem song Without Me, which features the words “guess who’s back”, before sitting down for a 15-minute interview.

Speaking to host Lorraine Kelly, Morgan addressed his forthcoming special with former US president Donald Trump, his Twitter spat with Caitlyn Jenner and the issue of transgender athletes competing professionally.

A promotional video released on Wednesday for his TalkTV interview showed Morgan and Mr Trump clashing over the latter’s claim the last US election was rigged, and appeared to show Mr Trump storming off camera.

Overnight on Wednesday, Mr Trump released a statement claiming Morgan “attempted to unlawfully and deceptively edit his long and tedious interview with me”.

Responding, Morgan told Kelly:

“He says it was a rigged election and he now says I have a rigged promo. All I would say is watch the interview – it will all be there. We won’t be doing any duplicitous editing. The president, I am afraid, got very heated with me because he thinks that he should have won the last election.

“He has taken it very badly that he didn’t and he has concocted a story with no evidence so far that it was all fraudulent, that the voting system was fraudulent and that he somehow had it stolen.

“I said to him, ‘I don’t believe that, I think you lost,’ and he didn’t like that so we had a very animated and heated discussion about it, which I think people will find fascinating.”

Sharon Osbourne appears in The Talk on weeknights at 9pm.

Uncensored will stream on Fox Nation in the US and will air on Sky News Australia.

Watchdog Ofcom ruled that Good Morning Britain was not in breach of the broadcasting code over Morgan’s controversial comments.

Since his departure from the show no permanent replacement has been announced, with Richard Madeley and others appearing in a rotating cast of guest presenters.
