Piers Morgan Stands by Meghan Markle Remarks: ‘I Believe in Freedom of Speech’

TRANSCRIPT:

MORGAN: "I believe in freedom of speech, I believe in the right to be allowed to have an opinion. If people want to believe Meghan Markle, that’s entirely their right. I don’t believe almost anything that comes out of her mouth. And I think the damage that she’s done to the British monarchy, and to the Queen, at a time when Prince Phillip is lying in hospital is enormous, and frankly contemptible. So if I have to fall on my sword for expressing an honestly held opinion about Meghan Markle and that diatribe of bilge that she came out with in that interview, so be it."
