Piers Morgan ditches Susanna Reid to fly to LA first class while GMB host sits in economy

Piers Morgan, 54, couldn’t resist gushing about his lavish experience in first class on Twitter and Instagram today after teasing his Good Morning Britain co-host Susanna Reid, 49, about sitting in economy. The presenter flew to Los Angeles yesterday ahead of the Oscars 2020 and shared a snap of his luxurious seat on the plane with his 874,000 followers.

Piers was pictured putting his feet up while lounging around in a pair of comfy socks and blue trousers during the flight. 

He captioned the photo: “Any nearer the front, I’d be flying it.

“Take me to Hollywood, @british_airways – the Oscars await!”

Sharing the same picture in view of his 7.1 million Twitter followers, he wrote: “Piers-exit #OscarsBound ⁦@British_Airways.”

Piers’ post comes after he appeared alongside Susanna on Loose Women on Tuesday to discuss their trip to Hollywood for the glamorous awards ceremony.

The outspoken journalist joked that his co-star was “sitting further down the plane” than him in a cheeky remark.

Piers admitted he wouldn’t be sitting with Susanna when Loose Women panelist Ruth Langsford asked the duo when they would be travelling to America.

Susanna seemed stunned when Piers said “tomorrow”, as she replied: “Oh right. Well, I’ve got a few more days at work.” 

 

The TV personality then mischievously jibed his fellow presenter by adding: “Susanna goes a bit more down the plane than me…”

The GMB stars will be hosting the show from Hollywood on Monday morning for a special Oscars episode.

Announcing the news on Instagram, Piers wrote: “Brace yourself Hollywood – I’m on my way… 

“Don’t miss Monday’s 3-hour @gmb Oscars special live from the Beverly Hills Hotel. We’ve got brilliant guests, and it should be a lot of fun #LA.”
