Piers Morgan’s Twitter Account Was Hacked And Derogatory Tweets About Ed Sheeran Were Posted.

Piers Morgan’s social media appears to have been hacked on Monday (Dec. 26) to target Ed Sheeran, Queen Elizabeth II, and others.

The hackers referred to Morgan as a “ginger f—er” in a series of since-deleted tweets and blasted the late monarch by tweeting, “f-k the queen,” while changing Morgan’s profile pic to a photo of himself laughing with Her Royal Majesty. Another public figure who came under fire was British-American boxer Andrew Tate, who was falsely reported to have been killed in Dubai by the hacked account.

“In case you were wondering, @piersmorgan has been hacked,” Morgan’s talk show’s official account, Piers Morgan Uncensored, tweeted the next day. “Do you think you can get him back, @elonmusk?”

Morgan’s account had been cleared of most of the abusive tweets as of press time, with the exception of a Bitcoin app scam and a blurry photo of an unnamed young man captioned with more abusive language.

Sheeran, for his part, was probably unsurprised by the controversy, especially given that he doesn’t use Twitter and leaves the app in the hands of his official team as “Ed Sheeran HQ.”

Instead, the singer has recently had a lot to be happy about. Billboard reported earlier this month that Sheeran sold more tickets than any other music act in 2022, owing to the massive success of his ongoing Mathematics Tour. (Over the course of 60 dates in Europe, he sold three million tickets.) The tour will arrive in the United States on May 6 with its massive, rotating stage, which will begin at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
