Piers has been on the receiving end of backlash himself in the last week, after his tweets about the Women’s Marches in which he claimed he was going to create a Men’s March in retaliation to “protest the creeping global emasculation of my gender by rabid feminists”.

His comments later forced Ewan McGregor to pull out of a scheduled appearance on the ITV breakfast show in disgust, to which Piers responded by penning a damning Daily Mail column.

The debacle has also left Susanna Reid having to defend herself against critics saying she doesn’t do enough to put her co-presenter in his place, although she did go to the lengths of gagging him during an appearance at the NTAs earlier this week.
