"New Year off to a cracking start!" quipped Piers Morgan from a hospital bed. The 60-year-old British broadcaster isn't letting a fractured femur dampen his spirits, even as he faces a long road to recovery after an unexpected trip at a London restaurant on January 19, 2026.
Piers Morgan Hip Replacement Surgery Details
Morgan underwent hip replacement surgery after tripping on a "small step" that led to a severe injury. He shared a photo on X (formerly Twitter) showing him hooked up to an IV and breathing tubes, yet flashing a thumbs-up. Doctors have ordered him to use crutches for the next 6 weeks as he rehabilitates his new hip.
The Trump Connection and Alcohol Clarification
In classic Morgan fashion, he jokingly declared, "I blame Donald Trump," for the incident. While the two have a storied history—Morgan won Trump’s Celebrity Apprentice before becoming a vocal critic—the comment was purely satirical. He also shut down rumors of intoxication, stating that zero alcohol was involved in the fall.
