Piers Morgan has confirmed he will not host Tuesday’s instalment of Uncensored on TalkTV.
The presenter, 58, explained that he’d fallen ill and described himself as a ‘gibbering wreck’.
Piers pinned the blame on ‘dodgy sushi’ and added that his Uncensored co-hosts will be filling in for him.
Taking to Twitter on Tuesday afternoon, he wrote: ‘UPDATE: Some dodgy sushi has rendered me a puking gibbering wreck (which is why I looked so queasy on air last night).’
He went on: ‘So I won’t be hosting @PiersUncensored tonight. My colleagues @MrHarryCole & @KateEMcCann are kindly stepping into the hot seat.’
It comes after Piers made it clear he’s not happy that Prince Harry is attending the coronation of his father, King Charles III.

The former Good Morning Britain host is not shy about his feelings for Harry and his wife Meghan Markle, and has regularly blasted the famous couple.
With the news that Harry will be returning to the UK for the coronation next month – and that Meghan will remain in their home in California with their children – Piers, unsurprisingly, had some thoughts to share.
The presenter blasted the pair on Thursday’s episode of Uncensored, where he had invited guests Tessa Dunlop, author and historian, King Charles former butler Grant Harold, to discuss why there appeared to not be as much excitement around the King’s coronation.
Tessa suggested there was ‘royal ceremonial fatigue’ and that after the death of Queen Elizabeth II, ‘the air’s coming out of the machine’.

She pointed part of the blame at Piers and others in the press for making the rifts in the family ‘deeper’ with a ‘divisive narrative,’ which Piers, naturally, disagreed with.
He fired back: ‘Rather than the people doing TV interviews and best-selling books trashing the Royal Family, who happen to be members of the Royal Family?,’ sarcastically adding: ‘They’re not to blame, it’s us reporting on the trashing that’s the problem.’
‘It’s such horse manure,’ he said.
When challenged by Tessa that he was probably ‘disappointed that Meghan isn’t going to be at that coronation,’ he scoffed: ‘I’m very disappointed Harry is going to be there.
‘What the hell is Prince Harry doing, having trashed the family in that horrible book he wrote?
‘The terrible series they’ve done, the interviews they’ve done, trashy trashy trashy trashy, damaging the institution of the monarchy, and then they have the brass neck – he turns up at the coronation?
‘And by the way, we know why he’s doing it,’ Piers went on, declaring that he suspected Meghan had told the prince: ‘You better get over there and get on that balcony somehow, because our entire commercial world depends on you still being a dominant member of the Royal Family.’

It’s far from the first time he’s taken aim at Harry, including previously branding him a ‘bitter, delusional, paranoid, family-trashing halfwit.’
Oh, Piers.
