Piers Morgan has revealed that he “enraged” his army colonel brother with his reaction to Jeremy Clarkson<\/a> punching him in the head. In a recent interview, the controversial host of Piers Morgan<\/a> Uncensored was asked if he and Jeremy had truly been in a “feud”.<\/a><\/p>\n Piers confirmed it before claiming that a scar on his forehead was from a time when Clarkson <\/a>“punched” him. It all began when Jeremy, who was then married to his now ex-wife, Frances Cain, allegedly asked Piers (then-editor of the Daily Mirror<\/a>) not to publish photos of him with another woman. However, Piers <\/a>reportedly published them anyway.<\/p>\n Piers recounted how the dramatic incident took place<\/a> at The British Press Awards in 2004, but also claims that he retorted to the Clarkson’s Farm star, taunting that his child hit him “harder than that”.<\/p>\n Speaking to Best magazine, he said: “It was only when he hit me for the third time, I said, ‘Is that it? My three-year-old hits me harder than that’, and he also broke his little finger hitting my head.”<\/p>\n Piers <\/a>alleged that Jeremy’s <\/a>finger remains “disfigured and mashed up” as a result of the attack. He also admitted that he didn’t retaliate against the former Top Gear<\/a> presenter, which left his brother “absolutely enraged”.<\/p>\n He continued: “It was a bit like Colin Firth and Hugh Grant in the fountain scene in Bridget Jones’ Diary. A couple of drunk men slapping each other around, and it was absolutely pathetic. I didn’t hit him back because I was sober.<\/p>\n “My brother was an army colonel, and he was absolutely enraged that I’d just allowed Clarkson to hit me, and I hadn’t hit him back. I told them I didn’t want to get the sack, and then I got fired three weeks later. “.<\/p>\n The pair have since buried the hatchet, according to Piers, following a decade of “abusing each other”. Jeremy previously spoke about the incident in 2022.<\/p>\n Writing in The Times, he said: “‘Why’s your f****** wife looking at me like that?’ he [Piers Morgan] thundered. So I punched him. And then I punched him again.”<\/p>\n Clarkson claimed he didn’t think it would “ever get boring”, so he “punched him again”, but “annoyingly” ended up breaking his finger.<\/p>\n This comes after reports detailing how Piers apologised on This Morning<\/a> following a live on-air swear word. During a discussion with Ashley James about the patriarchy, he used the term “bulls**t”.<\/p>\n He immediately realised his mistake, covered his mouth and issued an apology. Addressing viewers, he said: “Sorry! I’d like to apologise for what the guest just said live on air.<\/p>\n “We are a live programme, we apologise for Mr Morgan and he won’t be invited back for at least three weeks.”<\/p>\n![\"BEVERLY](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/0_2019-British-Academy-Britannia-Awards-presented-by-American-Airlines-and-Jaguar-Land-Rover-Arrival.webp\")
