Piers Morgan lashes out at Sophia Hutchins amid Caitlyn Jenner sex life row

Piers Morgan has hit back at I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here star Caitlyn Jenner’s ‘close friend’ Sophia Hutchins, after she branded him ‘pathetic’.

The 23-year-old was left furious after she was quizzed on her sex life with the Olympian – despite maintaining they are just pals, and ranted about him on her Instagram page.

But the presenter, 54, wasn’t that fussed about the video, quote-tweeting a story on her comments with ‘Oh get over yourself..’

It all kicked off between the pair after Sophia appeared on Good Morning Britain to discuss her relationship with Kris Jenner’s ex.

Piers started off their chat by getting right to the point, asking the businesswoman to lift the lid on her bond with the 70-year-old – following romance speculation.

‘At the end of the day, Caitlyn and I are family,’ she replied, explaining that they have a great ‘partnership’.

‘I think I’ve described it pretty well. At the end of the day, Caitlyn and I are family,’ she insisted.

‘We’re great together in business and we have a great partnership, on the personal side as family, and on the business side, me managing her career and us supporting each other in whatever business ventures we’re involved in together.’

Sliding straight in there, the host queried if they had had sex, asking: ‘No hanky panky then?’

Unimpressed, she simply replied: ‘Oh, my God,’ before reiterating that they were ‘family’.

While Sophia kept her cool live on air, she was left livid by the encounter, ranting about Piers on her Instagram page.

In a clip shared on her Instagram story, she fumed: ‘Good Morning Britain, having Piers Morgan is your biggest mistake.

‘What a joke of a journalist he is. ‘What a pathetic line of questioning he had for me this morning. Totally not cool.

‘I went on to support Caitlyn on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!. Not deal with stupid b******t questions from some jack*** Piers Morgan.

‘Piers, neither of us will ever do your show again.

‘You have shown your true colours yet again. How disappointing.’

Over to you, Sophia…
