Piers Morgan told to ‘have a day off’ after grumbling about Diana’s ‘feuding sons’ amid statue unveiling

A statue of the late Princess Diana was unveiled on Thursday to mark what would have been her 60th birthday. Her sons, Harry and William, were pictured at the new Kensington Palace memorial in a quiet and intimate ceremony.

They were joined by members of the Spencer family, including Diana’s brother, Earl Spencer, and Diana’s two sisters, Lady Sarah McCorquodale and Lady Jane Fellowes.

While the nation were in awe of the brothers uniting after a much-reported chaotic few months, there was one person who felt compelled to keep the conflict alive.

Piers Morgan tweeted: “BREAKING: The Diana statue, unveiled by her feuding sons.”

Twitter wasn’t happy about Morgan’s unnecessary jibe - especially with no evidence from the day to support his nonsense narrative.

One person replied to Morgan, “Feuding Sons, C’mon have a day off....”

While another took it upon themselves to ‘fix’ the misleading tweet. “BREAKING: Two sons unveil a statue in honour of their much missed mother. Fixed it for you”

Another sarcastically replied, “They look like they’re feuding you cockwomble.”

While another pointed out that people are getting bored of the journalist’s repetitive tactics, “Leave it alone piers. It’s getting tiresome”

To conclude the ceremony, the brothers released a joint statement:

“Today, on what would have been our mother’s 60th birthday, we remember her love, strength and character – qualities that made her a force for good around the world, changing countless lives for the better,”

“Every day, we wish she were still with us, and our hope is that this statue will be seen forever as a symbol of her life and her legacy Thank you toIan Rank-Broadley, Pip Morrison and their teams for their outstanding work, to the friends and donors who helped make this happen, and to all those around the world who keep our mother’s memory alive.”
