Piers Morgan told BBC’s Jon Sopel that former President Donald Trump
"They had a conversation with Trump thinking he was talking to me,” Morgan said in an interview on BBC’s Americast podcast. Morgan explained the story after Sopel asked him why Trump called him this past October.
It is “an absolutely hilarious story, where somebody had called [Trump] pretending to be me the day before and got through to him on Air Force One,” Morgan said.

Trump only realized it was a prank call after talking to the real Piers Morgan, Morgan said.
The call would be considered a serious security breach. The Hill has reached out to the Secret Service for comment.
