Piers Morgan reacts to Harry and Meghan's baby news in the most Piers Morgan way possible

PIERS MORGAN has had his say on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's baby news ... well, sort of.

On Friday, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex welcomed their second child - a baby girl - to the world.

They waited until Sunday to reveal the name they'd chosen - Lilibet 'Lili' Diana Mountbatten-Windsor, which is a nod to both Harry's mother, the late Princess Diana, as well as to the Queen, who is occasionally known as 'Lilibet' (short for Elizabeth) within the Palace, according to reports.

Morgan, who has been a frequent critic of both Meghan and Harry, was asked by his followers on social media to offer a reaction, and he responded in a way we all knew he would.

"To those asking for my reaction to the new royal baby, I am respecting her parents' constant pleas for privacy and declining to comment," he tweeted on Sunday.

Morgan has branded the couple hypocrites for the way they constantly criticise the media for invading their privacy, yet are happy to let them into their lives when it suits them, such as when promoting a number of personal film and TV ventures, such as their multi-million dollar series they've signed with Netflix.

The 56-year-old left his job at Good Morning Britain back in March following remarks he made about Meghan in the wake of her interview with Oprah Winfrey.

He said that "didn't believe a word" that came out of Ms Markle's mouth, and after ITV stepped in and ordered him to apologise, he quit.
