British broadcaster Piers Morgan has reported breaking his hip in a recent accident. The 60-year-old shared the news in a January 18 Instagram post, explaining that the injury resulted from a tumble after he “tripped on a small step.”
In his post, Morgan detailed the incident with a sense of humor, saying, “1. Tripped on a small step. 2. Inside a London hotel restaurant. (🙄) 3. Fell like a sack of spuds. 4. Fractured neck of femur. 5. So badly I needed a new hip.”
He further outlined his recovery plan, noting, “6. Recovering in hospital. 7. Crutches for 6 weeks. 8. No long-haul flying for 12 weeks. 9. New Year off to a cracking start! 10. I blame Donald Trump.” The mention of Trump drew laughter, a nod to their often fraught relationship that dates back to Morgan’s appearance on the reality show Celebrity Apprentice in the late 2000s.
