Piers Morgan reignites feud with Kim Kardashian as he brands the star ‘repulsively tone deaf’

PIERS Morgan has reignited his feud with Kim Kardashian as he took to Twitter to brand the star "repulsively tone deaf".

The TV presenter reacted to a video in which the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star opened up about her latest legal case.


Kim, 41, had been fighting to save the light of Brandon Bernard, who received the death penalty for murdering two people in 1999.

The star had campaigned to stop the execution before her plea was rejected, and Brandon was killed by lethal injection in 2020.

She opened up about the experience in a new video, posted to Twitter – which riled up Talk TV star Piers for being "tone deaf".

In the clip, the mother-of-four could be seen making a brief plug for her clothing brand SKIMS as she told details of the execution.

"I was working on the Brandon Bernard case and he was in fact executed," Kim could be head saying in the clip.

"I remember crying and feeling so helpless because it was his last phone call and he was telling me, 'Don't cry, it's gonna be OK'.

"Hearing that he was worried that he'd be claustrophobic in the chair and then on his last call when he was in the execution room he said, 'Please tell Kim I'm not claustrophobic – it's OK'."

She went on: "If only someone could see my day. I'm hysterically crying calling every governor that I could possibly imagine to try to stop someone's execution.

"And then I have to run into a SKIMS fitting and I'm fitting and I'm crying and I can't really get my work done. It was such a whirlwind of a day."

The controversial interview had been posted to Twitter under the comment: "Only  Kim Kardashian could make a criminal’s execution all about herself."

Piers, 57, retweeted the message, adding: "Repulsively tone-deaf."

It's not the first time Piers has hit out at the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star – as their feud hit the headlines in 2020.

The former GMB star took aim at Kim on Twitter as she shared a series of snaps from her luxury 40th birthday celebrations.

The shots showed Kim and her famous siblings posing on the beach of a private island as they celebrated her big day.

Alongside the post, Piers wrote: "This thread is so repulsive it makes me want to vomit. Not that we needed confirmation but what a spoiled, tone-deaf imbecile."
