Piers Morgan spills Meghan Markle slid into his DMs before dating Prince Harry Entertainment Wed, Apr 07, 2021 Piers Morgan dropped some truthbombs about his sweet and sour ties with Meghan Markle. Contrary to popular belief, it was the Duchess who contacted Piers first, back when she had not met Prince Harry. Piers said Meghan sent him a message on the social media site when he followed her, saying, "Well hello there - thanks for the follow. Big fan of yours!" For until 18 months, the two exchanged pleasantries and had "amusing" debates over Meghan's Netflix series Suits. The two even met for drinks, after which Piers says, Meghan ghosted her, the same day she went on her first date with Prince Harry.
